Given that 888 do not operate in the U.S.A. the $$ is probably the fairest currency for them to use. Although, this is more likely to be incidental rather than being down to aforethought.

What is not fair, is that the Term ‘exchange rate’ and ‘comparable’ which are loosely used, do not make the discrepancy between the officially published exchange rate and that used by 888, transparent enough.

888 are allowed to use any exchange rate they wish or levy any charge/fee they feel like.

Also makes it impossible for us to quantify, as processing times vary, different currencies are used, Exchange rates fluctuate and third parties can be used.

Impossible for us, but should it be for 888?

Most, will incorrectly believe that Exchange rates indicate some sort of Internationally signed treaty that anyone who uses this term must maintain the Officially published rate of exchange at any given time. I may be wrong, but believe they do not.

Although, I find it difficult to swallow, when the term is used to convey certain assurances.

However, if 888 were transparent enough,

we would not have to trial different methods of withdrawing and depositing, as we now are.

We would be able to make an informed decision based on clear and precise facts.

We charge $ / %              to deposit in GBP

                                                             AUD

                                                             EUR

We charge $ / %               to withdraw

Tbh this was the least of my concerns when I first joined. I was too worried that other players could see my cards….lol…….now know it was just bad play by me

Goblin, If I tried to use my Travel Card to deposit and withdraw money in the U.K. they would lock me up.

Please, Please do not ask me to contact Support@888, I believe this info should be public. If it is, please delete this post and direct me to it.
