Accounts changed to euros

[Hedonist]

I have been informed by one Boss site that my account will be changed to euros on October 1st.

Have also read that it will happen on all boss sites, can anyone confirm this?

[alexross1977]

Yep changing from USD to EURO sounds like a death knoll for Sterling

[shaggy1984]

eventhough i use euros every single day it is still completely different for me now on .co.uk.

my brain cant get used to it!

I'm the same - I lose track of how much a Euro is worth. It would be good for Boss to state what the equivalent value is in dollars in brackets during the transition stage. I generally play Sit and Goes at the $5ish mark, so what is this in Euros? I'm thinking about €6 or €7?

$1 is about €0.70 at the moment, so $5 is about €3.50.

Ah thanks, so last night I played double my usual level. I should just play a percentage of my roll, then the amounts are immaterial.

Hmm, that's rather sneaky. The minimum withdrawal amount just went up by almost 40%, which is quite an offputting leap for us small-stakes cheapskates.

[Prowler]

knowing boss and webdollar the extra 40% will be lost on exchange rates or some ridiculous "new" charge they dont tell you about when you sign up
