    I just registered on Moneybookers a couple of weeks ago..... I should withdraw money from my account very soon! but i was curious what are the fees for SWIFT processing to my bank account. It says 1.8euros. I live in Egypt..... Will it only cost 1.8 euros to transfer my money from moneybookers to my bank account as stated?!?! or are there any hidden charges???
    i only want to transfer 100euros... so will it reach 98.2euros in this case??
    I would be glad if someone answered me, it will be a lot of help 4 me.. :D thxx

    while were on the subject. can anyone tell me if you have to submit your picture and a proof of address before you withdrawl money? i got a email saying that i needed to send them ID and proof of address which is alittle intense, even paypal doesnt do that shit. I requested a withdrawl about 3 days ago so am i reciving this email because of that and do i have to do it to recieve my money? i dont want anything to do with moneybookers i just used to accept another form of payment for a website sale.

    If anyone can answer this for me ill be grateful, i don't wanna have to send them that crap if i don't have to.

    They don't ask you to submit pics or something but they will email you a letter to verify your address. Just click on the link where you can verify your address. They will not ask you to pay for that. Question did you verify your address already?

    Then just wait for the letter and get your address verified.

    I don't know if this has changed but there were times when moneybookers didn't allow the first payment to exceed $15 or so. The purpose of this payment was to send you a special code that you need to type in order to confirm your bank account. This was in relation wtih money laundering. I am not sure if it is still valid but you'd better check because if you need the money soon, it might be an unpleasant surprise to discover that you can't get it at once.

They want me to send them 2 proofs of ID to europe from american......... ok sure if you want to pay the freaking 30$ charge and add another 100$ for fast dilvery so i can send my god damn money. DIE MONEY BOOKERS

    I thought Moneybookers were one of the cheapest once you have account.
    So what are the worldwide alternates Killafawk?
    Neteller have big problems I read.

    I have a very good experience with moneybookers. I withdraw funds 2 times and it recieved safely to my bank account in less fees then what paypal charges ($5 via cheque unless you are a US citizen, bank transfer is free for them).

    once you have your account then yes. they basically want to know everything about your life before you can do anything with your account.

    and yes netteller wont be working anymore, there owners were arrested by FBI and there closing down.
