Is Neteller safer than a sports book?

Would you feel more comfortable with your entire life savings sitting in your Neteller account or with your life savings spread out between a dozen or so books that you feel are top notch?

I would rather have it sitting at some of the huge Australian/UK books.

Wouldn't put my entire life savings neither in Neteller nor with any book.
As for my bankroll, I trust Neteller exactly as much as for example Pinny or any other top class book. But I do not keep my whole gambling money in one place anyway

I like to keep it spread around. Neteller, major sportsbooks and party poker. If one goes belly up i am still in good shape.

i dont think its ever safe to keep all of your bankroll in any one place no matter how safe anyone thinks they are.

People thought enron was in great final condition also.

It can take a week to move money from a US bank to Neteller. The college football season is only 13 weeks. I simply cannot miss a week of college football because I don't have the funds in the right place.

I've got to have 100% of my bankroll either with the sports books or with Neteller for the entire season. I can drag profits at any time, but I've got to keep at least 40 wagers in a place where they are readily available.

Any advice?

Thanks,

I wound not want my entire life savings account anywhere

BUT to keep a small amount in neteller always in case you want to fund an sports book account is 100% perfectly safe IMO....I feel 100% safe

Since I Started Using

Neteller I`ve thought about the security issue w/them. After all they have all my bank info, Acct #, Routing, etc.. And while I agree w/Dante there is always that nagging little "what if" lurking. Yes the fact that it takes at least 4 business days sometimes more, bothers me too. If I get in a bind I`ve found a simple call to WU`s 800 # using a CC will get the money there in 15 or so mins. And I NEVER put it all in one spot even Pinny.
