it is usually instant and no they dont care about ID until you cash out... but usually is not an issue.

Can you explain what the process is for Moneybookers these days (please)?
When I first began playing online poker ('07) I looked at Moneybookers as a method to deposit, I followed their procedure at the time which included needing verification by supplying a cellphone number, sending & receiving text messages, etc. It was a lengthy process (some other stuff too, & at the time my cellphone was inactive (pay as you go phone) & first had to re-activate a phone I didn't use, & had to purchase a new charger for it too, lol. 9hrs. later with tons of running around, phonecalls back & forth (to the UK I believe....it's been awhile). Yah.... so 9hrs. later they tell me that they weren't accepting Cdns. at the time????

... warning.. next part here is boring so continue to last paragraph lol
{story of that day cont'd. with the discovery of epassporte, got an account set up & by 01:25 est (10:25pm where i live) I had $$'s on Fulltilt. I scrolled the lobby & saw a game registering for $1 (Ferguson) so I decided to play it, not even knowing at the time that it was a tournament, lol. Then discovered there were over 900 players in the thing, & at ~3:30am I was sitting HeadsUp, each w around 15bb's, got it in with the best of it & lost a 60/40.... figured > "oh well, that was fun. 2nd, but wouldn't been nice if I'd won some money" (actually thought the thing was a winner take all.... it'd been a long day of jerkin' around to get money onto a poker site.... over 9hrs. from the moment I'd started out). Yah, was pleasantly surprised to see a small window pop up saying I'd won $114..... I think right then I was hooked (lol).

I'm looking to move a bit of money off of a couple of poker sites & move it to another. I've heard recently that Moneybookers is a decent, easy-to-use service. Can you possibly explain how the current process there now works? and.... anything else you figure I might want/need to know about Moneybookers
tks
