Hi Schris7
for your first question I don't know how the bank would know that you have ticked the box that it is for gambling purpose. I highly doubt that that info is transmitted to the bank but I might be wrong. A MoneyBookers representative frequently come by this board and more than likely will be able to confirm or deny my assumption
as for the second part I found this in TwiceT's blog:

hey! sorry to revive the old (ish) discussion, but do you have any advice on what currency to use for poker? I'm about to deposit on party, and they don't offer CHF, but there's a choice between: USD; EUR; GBP; CAD; JPY. Is any of them more or less stable?
Right now I have iPoker in euros and moneybookers in CHF, fwiw (with all my money on ipoker.. yay.)
i think most important is that u have same currencies between your shipping sites. so u need to have at least NT or MB in USD. the other currency probably best in EUR. cuz u rly wanna make sure u dont lose when shipping site A > MB/NT > site B
if your MB is in CHF, ofc the ship to your MB account should always be the last one. transferring between sites should then only happen via NT. in that case NT can be in EUR or USD, depending on the base currency of most of your poker accounts. if most are EUR, NT in EUR is best. if u mostly play on sites with USD accounts, NT should be in USD.
i personally think that having some sites in EUR and some in USD is best, along with two MB accounts as VIP, one EUR, one in USD.
MB > NT for me personally.
Let me know if it answer your questions or not
