I've tried to take advantage of the "code red" promotion. To do so, I created a new moneybrookers account and transferred EUR 36 from my bank account into it (using IDEAL). This was successful, and moneybrookers confirms I have EUR 36 in my account.

At the same moment however, they locked my account for all outgoing transfers. Which means, I'm out EUR 36 - and have no BK subscription in return. Does anyone else have had similar moneybrookers issues? I've used them without problems in the past (using a credit card), but they now wanted more information for a credit card transaction that I was willing to give them - hence the direct transfer route.
