Skrill skrill ripped client's money out of withdrawal amount

I was withdrawing money to my local bank account, the fee was supposed to be only 1.80euro, it 's just aint my day, , when I checked my money in the bank, I noticed my money was deducted about 15-20euro, which the fee was supposed to be only 1.80euro, then I asked skrill about it.. .They said it was charged for withdrawal fee.I was shocked to hear that.I just dont get it.It is clearly mentioned the withdrawal fee is only 1.80euro, they said no other hidden fees.Whatever the reason is just dont make any sense.

What I do understand, SKRILL is a stealer of CLIENT'S money OUT OF withdrawal amount, they'll ripped u off by charging a senseless fee, without client's consent.

I would certainly pray and hope the authority will shut them down, just like what happened to LIBERTY RESERVE.they r the biggest ripper who still operating legally out there.

I can confirm this is TRUE experience.I have the proof of transaction and emails.

Skrill locked account

They locked my account after an alleged unauthorised access of which I have no details. Subsequently I was asked to change my email account and password, then provide proof of identity through a utility bill and photo ID. As if that wasn't bad enough they rejected my expired passport which is my only form of photo ID. We don't have ID cards in the UK and my driving licence is text-only. I'm not going to the expense of renewing my passport or applying for the optional photo driving licence just to satisfy a bureaucratic process.

Apparently I could close my account then open another for which I wouldn't be required to provide photo ID. WTF?

Skrill order never came but my account has been charged

I ordered Nokia silicone case cover . My account was charged right away and I received one of those automatic response that my account has been charged. I never received the order. Kept emailing them but no response received at all either. This is completely scam. The Item will come from hong kong and there was like an Asian name who apparently will shipped the item. He also used the company money bookers to charged the account which has an address here in New York. All these are scam. There is only one thing it does very good.
RIP YOU OFF. How do these kind of scam be caught and learn their lesson good?

Skrill a bureaucratic nightmare

I have been trying to open an account with them and after 6 weeks, they are still pondering the risk of doing business with me. In the meantime, it took me 5 days to open an account with 2co. This company is run like the worst public service you can think of. Slow customer service. Takes them 2-3 days to respond to any inquiry, they keep on adding requests, the process to be a merchant is not clear and they drag it on and on. Probably a good partner if your idea of banking is a Swiss bank but not really a business partner.
I wish there would have been a clear procedure on their websites on how to proceed to open an merchant account with them and I wouldn't have bothered.
They tempt you in offering the security of a British regulated bank and you get a 19th century bureaucracy.

Do not use moneybookers (skrill) if you are in the US. They are completely inept and will close your account if any of your customers have used a gambling site - even once. Which will happen at some point guaranteed. So essentially US citizens cannot use moneybookers for any reason whatasoever. Yes that is right... if you get money from a person that at some point (even just once) visited a poker website you will lose your account. They have an abusrd and incorrect interpretation of US law.

So based on that I would avoid like the plague. They are a nightmare. Even with paypal's issues Paypal is 1000 times better.

Skrill - fraudulent charge

A charge for $26.95 just randomly showed up on my credit card statement from MineCraft MoneyBookers GBR along with a second transaction fee for $0.88. I have no idea how this company got our credit card number and made this charge. Neither my husband nor I have traveled to Great Britain in ages so obviously this is just a way for the company to try and...

Skrill don't go anywhere near skrill - moneybookers

I had an account with them but recently when I transferred some money to my account in order to transfer to a third party. I can't see the money in my account even after 4 days so I called their expensive 0870 no in order to realise that my account is locked and they need a utility bill to prove my address so I gave them but after that they asked me the COLOURED copy of PASSPORT to unlock my account. I declined to give coloured copy of my passport so they said they cannot unlock my account.
Finally I have to give them the coloured copy of the bank statement from where I send money to them in order to return the money to my bank. I closed my account after they returned money to my account. It took a month and so many expensive calls and email to get money back. They made it as difficult as possible to withdraw money from the account
In the days of identity theft is so common; they need coloured copies of key identity document and utility bills for unlocking my account. They didn't ask these document when you open the account but will ask once your money with them.
We all are aware of hacking of well known companies and their customer details in public domain in the past so what is guarantee for our documents? Forget the hackers; their scrupulous staff may misuse the details
Customer support is arrogant, expensive and useless. If you going to use them be prepared to hand over your coloured identity documents

Skrill missing money

I really need help, I have won some money on Vernons, I was delighted. When I tried to withdraw I was informed the money couldn't go back onto my debit card! So I had to use moneybookers. I then had to use them to deposit so I had to put money in the account which I didn't want to do. In fairness to Vernons t hey said I could get the money back without having to play it through. I won 75 pounds. So then I went to moneybookers and tried so desperately to put the money back on my card through them. Could I? Could I hell, unless I open up a visa or moneybookers card as my maestro isn't allowed I had to get the money through a cheque. I did that I ended up after payment of fees etc. putting 50 pounds for my cheque. I checked on website it says it's been processed. NO SIGN OF CHECK 2 weeks Later. I've complained and had NO WORD AT ALL FROM MONEY BOOKERS. I hate t hese people I've been forced to use their services when I didn't want to, or bullied into having a visa or mastercard which again I don't want. I want my 50 pounds back. Please help

Skrill fraudulant cc charges

Ordered a laptop table in jan on amazon and now have $26.95 charges for minecraft through moneybookers and now more smaller charges are appearing on my cc, amazon I believe was hacked before and I guess with all the millions this company makes they still hav, nt learned their lesson to spend to protect its customers I and my entire family will never use amazon again an we will also be cancelling our online amazon accounts. Now I had to cancel my credit cards and have no cc to take on vacation. Everyone this has happened 2 pass the word its the best way to inform ppl hit up facebook an twitter an tell all to stay away, an maybe amazon will do sumthing and spend sum money on keeping their consumers safe, but its to late 4 me an my family amazon has lost alot of money from us, we all cancel accounts and never use amazon again, yes it is the hackers but amazon is just as bad they can afford to have firewall encryption people to monitor these this, but they obviously dont since so many of us are being robbed by thieves that in no way should be able to access our credit card numbers or amazon so called protected accounts.

Skrill moneybookers or moneysuckers

Moneybookers (or Skrill) is just a trap..

To open an account and / or put money, it's sooo easy, come on!

When it comes to withdrawal, they are not happy anymore, they say :
Oh no! you became a bad boy NOW so, for security reasons (that we forgot to take into account when you came and put your money in our deep dark hole) your account is locked (maybe sucked?), and to unlock it you need to provide us a colored scan of your YESTERDAY'S SPOONS (and maybe eggs too?), hopefully you didn't anticipate that, so they keep the jackpot in your account.

And when you try to contact them: by email, you get copy-paste or automatic / robot response, or by phone ( after : if you are happy press 1, if you give up press 2...) you get a novice that says : I don't know - I will tell our security department about your case !

Their SUCKIRITY department is just a bogus excuse to hide them selves and do what they want quietly.
Anyway, their new name will not help to make up their image, Skrill in icelandic means mob, rabble, rout ! Fair choice !
They are just MONEYSUKERS (or SUCKRILL).

I agree with you. I'm just been a victim. My account was blocked and the account of a other person too. For which reason, mystery.
Its impossible to get an answer. But they just replied and show their rules : "They can blocked account without notification".
Because I just saw there are mistake in some transactions, so I notified them and ask them to cancelled them. few hours after, the 2 accounts were blocked with all our money and why ? Impossible to no. Their system made a mistake and transferred the money to the wrong person; its enough to closed 2 accounts ? When there are any mistake, we should said nothing ?

They repeat and repeat: : because of security, they closed our account and can't do anything for reimbursement. That's a ###ing team. Don't care about their customer, they scam and stole our money. They abuse us with their rules. But as they don't explain or give any explanation; we customers can do anything; just send mails and send again...but in final, we receive always the same answer.

Skrill credit card charge

I check my bank account very often and checked it tonight about 9:45 pm central time and found a charge of $26.95 charged to my credit card. I DID NOT authorize this charge and have talked to my bank to dispute it. They have started the process of investigating this charge. I was told by my bank that it was made at 7:03 p.m pacific time on 1/28/2012. I was on my phone between 7 pm and 8:30 pm central time with a relative of mine. Once again, I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THIS CHARGE!

Skrill processing bank fees

After withdrawal of 51.62 USD from my Moneybookers account to my bank account, I received 41.62 USD. After LONG correspondence with my bank and Moneybookers, I found out that some corresponding bank charged 10 USD, or 25% of total sum. An I was not informed of this before withdrawal. It is not my first time withdrawal from Moneybookers, and I have never been charged this much before. I think that someone is gaining millions, and there is nothing you can do to stop it! So be aware!

Skrill emailed me stating that they will be taking money from my account monthly since my account has been inactive. There is no way to contact these fraudsters because you need to login to their system before emailing them. Eventually I sent mail to newbusiness@skrill.com and they refuse to remove my information on request.

Skrill is a really bad company. It use to be Moneybookers and our company use to do business with them. We mostly process through PayPal and our own credit card processor, but we decided to try Moneybookers. Over the course of 6 months of using them, we made ONLY 2 sales with Moneybookers - Skrill and now, 8 months later, the money we received has vanished and we never got a credit for the cash. It wasn't that much money, but beware, this is NOT a good option to pay online or receiving money online. Go with the bigger guys, GoogleCheckout / PayPal ... there's a reason why they are bigger.

Same scenario occurred to me as well, but this only occurred when Skrill took over Moneybookers. Deposit and withdrawals were fine, but once Skrill came into the picture money went missing and the worst part is that they do not disclose nor explain why!?! This is BAD business and I highly recommend NOT using Skrill because every transaction will cost you MORE than what you expect. BEWARE!

Wow. My debit card was hacked. Seems Amazon is the common thread for leaks with this MB MINECRAFTBOOKERS being a prime name. Got a call from a company in California Transgaming that called to verify my information prior to charging to my account. So scary finding out who knows who has your information and is buying things while you are snug in bed. I have cancelled my amazon account, my paypal account etc. Thanks for people posting their experiences. f*** hackers who pick on poor people.

Just came in on our cc statement today. We never ordered any games. This is a low credit line card that we only use for internet purchases, primarily Amazon. I wrote to them to let them know that they have a breach and that people are complaining about them on the forums. Unfortunately we ordered something this morning before receiving our statement so we will wait a day or two before changing the credit card, a real pain.

Skrill poor business practices

I sold items on ebay and buyers paid via moneybookers on June 2, 2011 and June 3, 2011. Everyone left me positive feedback and is happy with their purchases. I called moneybookers to ask why the money is not in my bank account today. They told me the money will not be transferred into my account for 40 days! That is an unreasonable amount of time for them to hold onto my money for a positive transaction. They owe me $78.39. I need to pay a bill and was going to use this money for it. DO NOT USE MONEYBOOKERS! RIPOFF!
