If you transfer money from your credit card to a savings account you've made a cash advance. You've recieved no cash in hand but the money is there for you to use at a later date. If you transfer money from a credit card to a betting agency again no cash has changed hands but the money is there for you to use at a later date. You've consumed no product and received no service. All you've done is given the betting agency the authority to hold the money in proxy for you to use at a later date.

I'm concerned others may be getting the indication that it's ok to bet on credit. IT'S NOT!!! So I'll contribute no further.

All the best
