    Bet365 - Skrill and Neteller not available in Germany
    I just read on another forum that Neteller and Skrill are no longer available for deposits on Bet365. The customer support doesn't provide any reason for the removal of both payment methods or if they'll become available again. Can people from outside Germany confirm whether or not they are affected by this restriction as well? Thanks!

      I can confirm OP's post. Skrill/Neteller are no longer available for me (Bavaria, Germany). Yet some people from Germany are claiming they still have Skrill available for deposits, so it might differ from state to state.

      I'm really curious about other countries. I heard that Brazil, India and Morocco are affected as well. Can anyone confirm?

            Thanks Enzo

            Where did you find this information? Do you know if it says this in the rules or anything official?

              This goes from November. BET365 is not allowing first deposits with Skrill and Neteller for new accounts. Old accounts can still use Skrill and Neteller but not new. There are some exceptions, Bangladesh, India, Maroko and 2-3 more, but yesterday India was rejected too. There are reports from the very start of this here: https://arbusers.com/index.php?topic=6873.0

                  My bet365 account is 12 years old and I could use Skrill until last month. Now it has been removed.

                    You are right. Skrill and Neteller are available again for me after making a 5€ card deposit (old account with various Skrill/Neteller transactions in the past).

                      Any other experience with card deposit unlocking Skrill again?
                      My account is superold, almost 10 years (I use it for poker only), I tried making card deposit and it didn't help. It was real bank card, not some revolut/monese/icard crap.

                        Update: After numerous chats and phone calls with bet365 support, Skrill support.

                        It seems to be more than blocking Skrill deposits for particular countries.

                        I'm from Croatia, my account had Skrill removed in November, tried depositing with credit card but Skrill remained unavailable. Bet365 support was convincing me it was a decision affecting all Croatian accounts, but they were obviously lying.

                        I talked to people on Croatian forums, some reported having old accounts and Skrill still available, others reported Skrill appearing after card deposit.
                        I contacted support again, faced them with my findings and they finally admitted it was decision affecting my account in particular.
                        Reason - "traders decision".

                        I was valuebetting at bet365 back in 2010, didn't even win, but they limited my account to peanuts so I stopped. Years later, I started playing poker and used that account for poker exclusively. Unfortunately, punishment for valuebetting in 2010. got me now. Wouldn't mind it at all, but they have really cool premium tables there, which can't be played on another ipoker skins.
                        Btw, they even blocked me from contacting their chat support, now I have to call them if I want to talk.

                        Bottom line - all that scheme with Skrill being unlocked after card deposit is just another tool to accept only soft action.

                        Should I even bother reporting? Or I should just withdraw and forget about it?
