Skrill & Transferwise borderless

Thu Mar 19, 2020 1:28 am

I want to withdraw from my EUR Skrill account, but my country's currency is not EUR.
I don't want Skrill to convert it using their horrible exchange rate.

Can I just register for Transferwise Borderless who give Belgian EUR account and withdraw to there? Any problems / experience with that?

Hello,
in the past i was using DE transferwise account even im not DE native and EUR is not my native currency. But now i cant withdraw from skrill to transferwise because transferwise's new rule: https://transferwise.com/help/11/gettin ... currencies

As we all know, skrill has terrible exchange rates, so i dont want to withdraw from EUR skrill account to my bank account with my original currency. Because of this i have made a subbank account with EUR currency. But this doesnt work - i still had to pay these horrible exchange and the skrill's customer service respond was that the bank account is based in country where EUR is not main currency so i have to pay exchange rate even that this account is in EUR currency.

So my question here to you guys: which online bank account service you could recommend me? transferwise is now useless for me when i cant withdraw there from skrill.

Thank you very much!

cant find monero - everything is about cryptocurrency monero
verse payments - eligible all around the EU but not in Czech Republic :D
bankera - seems OK, now Im waiting for verification so i will be able to transfer money. I hope they support payments to and from Skrill.
Edit: bankera supports SEPA payments. So transfers to and out of Skrill should be OK.

thank you
