Question about Neteller, Skrill, etc.

This may sound completely "uneducated" for some, but can some actual users explain to me the practical application to 3rd party wallet managers like Neteller, Skrill etc. nowadays? I mean - why would you use them if you can use direct bank transfer? In pokerstars, 888 and partypoker one can easily choose direct bank transfer. Why would you use say Neteller instead and pay those fees?

1. there are many people that don't have a bank account (like me) and obviously, a credit card.

2. in some rooms like 888 (maybe all) you need to pay high fees for cash out by bank transfer. by Neteller and Skrill fees are ZERO.

1. I couldnt imagine that such people even exist, I am sorry

2. This is simply not true. Fees for bank transfer cashouts in all three rooms (Stars, 888, Party) are ZERO as well.

So, apart from reason 1 which might be exceptionally rare case, any other reasons to use 3rd party wallets...?
