EU And Online Gambling Laws

Filed under: Casino — Tags: , — OCE News @ 12:00 am

There has been a long raging debate on whether every state of the European Union should have its own laws on gambling or whether all gambling related decisions are to be left to the European Commission. To get the best possible solution, the European Parliament has been involved in debates for quite some time now. A vote has been scheduled for the month of September on this topic. Earlier this year, a green paper was launched which voiced this concern. A liberal member of Parliament, Jurgen Creutzmann from Germany, suggested that the European Union should take over all decision making power regarding gambling laws. He is not in favor of a single law for governing gambling in all member states but he is in favor of closer cooperation amongst them.

This Parliament member held the view that while member states are not capable of regulating all areas of gambling on the Internet, there remains the need for unity among national regulatory bodies. Currently all member states of the European Union have their own independent laws on online gambling. However, borders cannot define gambling online. It is better that all the gambling that takes place within European Union states abide by certain common standards.

On the other hand, there is a group, which sees no need for any common regulation by European Union members and they are in favor of unregulated gambling. Some other sections strongly object to Internet gambling having been limited. They are of the opinion that gamblers must be given warning messages while there are some other sections who want restrictions to be imposed on online players. Following the September vote, a subsequent vote is expected to be conducted in the subsequent month.

Neteller and its new payment mode

Neteller has always been one of the most secure and trusted ways of withdrawing and depositing funds used by online gamblers. There are many members who have signed up with this online payment solutions mode and who recently have been informed about the introduction of Neosurf. This new method of monetary transaction called Neosurf is however not open to all European nations currently. This is available for players only in countries like Italy, Belgium, France, and Spain. This new method allows players to buy the Neosurf prepaid card. Through this card, they can deposit funds into their Neteller accounts at once. From this e-wallet account, the players can then make their deposits to the casinos they prefer. In those countries where the Neosurf card is already being bought, the players can get them from any authorized Neteller retailer.

Once this card is bought, the players must register themselves in their current Neteller accounts. When they want to deposit funds, they can choose the Neosurf option and deposit any amount ranging from 20 to 4,000 Euros. To do so, they must use the PIN printed at the back of their Neosurf card. The amount then is deposited in their accounts and the players can thereafter make their deposits to their favorite casinos. The Neosurf customer care support team is always available to assist players in case of any problems they may face in depositing funds.
