Then, when I funded a full $100 into my Moneybookers account, my Credit Card company dinged me ANOTHER $20 fee. So, I've now spent roughly $142 to get $100 into my Moneybookers account. Currently, it's useless, but we'll see what transpires with phobozad's pincodes or TxtNation.
May depend on who your card issuer is also (visa/mc/etc...) and also if it's sponsored by a bank or other institution. I'm currently in the US and had no additional charges to my card when I loaded moneybookers....

Definitely may be something to check before topping up again though if that option ever returns.
