I beleive Neteller has committed to compliance, but is in no rush to begin complying. If Neteller does follow through on that, I think, as you do, that there will be alternatives that work. In the longrun, I think the efforts to stop offshore betting have just about as much chance of success as Prohibition had in stopping drinking.
