does anyone have a Canadian Dollar account there that they have funded with Credit card?

My question is does the charge show up on the credit card in Canadian Funds? or does it show up in US funds then converted by your bank to Canadian?

SportSavant,

Get your account changed to US Funds.

I had a book sometime ago that I used with Canadian funds. Had a nice run while I played at the book.

The differece would have been some $4000+ if I had played in US funds. Like everyone here, I learned the hard way.

Only deal with US accounts now. You never know when that 8-10 team $10 just-for-kicks parlay you put in actually wins.

And use Neteller, not CC. Set up a separate account at some other canadian bank that you only use for wagering via Neteller.

I hear you rude...but if OLYMPIC offers true Canadian Processing...it is much smarter to have a Canadian Dollar account...

Of course I am aware of the difference of the US vs Canadian dollars & would wager accordingly.....

Netteler Charges 3.9% for a Credit Card Deposit...Olympic directly it is FREE!!!

Want to use Credit Card due to 2% Cash Back Bonus!!!!!!! Plus Cash is then in my account for 45days extra...

Some have Canadian Dollar Accounts but part of their processing is in USA dollars....For example at Intertops I have a Canadian Dollar Account but If I deposit with Credit Card it shows up on my Credit Card in USA dollars & then is converted by my bank to Canadian (BAD EXCHANGE RATES....)

Intertops however pays out in Canadian by cheque if you like...

intertops

The only place that I have found that has TRUE Canadian Processing is B365...If you deposit there in Canadian on the Credit Card your charges appear in Canadian on your Credit Card Statement...

Sportingbet.com, Ladbrokes, William Hill, SportingOdds all have true Canadian dollar processing. I'm not 100% sure, but I think Canbet did also (I later changed my Canbet account to US dollars). Bowmans does as well, but unfortunately they charge a 2% fee for credit card deposits.

If you want to have the sportsbook accounts denominated in US dollars, Royal is the only Canadian bank I know of that offers a US dollar Visa that gives you reward points (basically 1% of your volume).
