Bovada Bit__ -
I continue to think Bovada's on the up and up but I don't think they're above their dirty trix. They charge 4.9% on their deposits and the Chinese transaction houses tack on their cut over that. The Chinese houses were swatting me for $3-4 for $100-250 deposits, then these last couple they've summarily doubled it. I b______ to Bovada customer service about it and get nothing but bs back. "Oh, we have no control over them." " The currency exchange rate has changed, that's what you're seeing." Give me a break. Cut the bs:
1) To think Bovada has no influence over them is ludicrous in light of the fact that Bovada likely contracts with them for their services, and
2) The $/Yuan Renminbi ratio changed 7% last year. So how's a 100% increase in transaction charges justified, I think it's possible Bovada is getting kickbacks from them. A word to the wise: Bovada's getting expensive.

I feel sorry for you that your experiencing that kind of treatment from Bovada. I suggest you open a Paypal account and automatically convert it to Dollar. Once you convert you money to dollar exchange rate would have minimal impact on you.
