Mastercard and Visa Clamp Down
Please correct me if I am mistaken, but it now seems that no Mastercard or Visa transactions are accepted for "gaming transactions". We are now forced to use Firepay or Paypal and it seems by posts here that people have had troubles and the fees are high. I have not used them as yet, but in investigating them, it seems you have to climb through a lot of hoops to sign up. Should we now send checks? Or are there exceptions to the clamp down?--banks that will still do it, that is. I already play at Paradise and Planet, and might get involved in Pokerstars, ultimatebet and truepoker. Please advise--thanks. |

Re: Mastercard and Visa Clamp Down
Yeah, with all this talk I thought they stopped too, but just a few weeks ago I deposited some money using my MC (citibank). So it's still up to your bank as far as I can tell. But I HIGHLY recommened PayPal, especially if you live in the US. I just started using them about a week ago, and they haven't charged me a single fee. They make it soooo easy to transfer your money around...If you run bad on one site, you can just cashout some money on another, and transfer it all with paypal... I have yet to try a credit card or check deposit using paypal, I just used my winnings to fund my account directly from paradise, thats why no fees I believe... I also have yet to try to wire money from paypal to my checking account, but I will be soon, and god do I hope I don't get charged a fee, else I will be going back to cashing out via courier. But from wht I understand there is no fee here either. |
