for party n' skins...just deposit via firepay and withdraw to your checking account. Not a big hassle my any means...

Sounds like not a big problem.

What happens if you try to withdraw from Party to FirePay? Slow? Not allowed?

Me too. I use my Provident account for Party (although I really don't play there anymore), and I use FirePay for Full Tilt. But with FirePay you have to pay $3.99 to make a deposit from bank account. Not sure about Full Tilt to FirePay though. Haven't made enough to do a withdrawal. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Party and Skins allow you to deposit via Firepay but will not allow you to withdraw (to firepay)....i dont know why it is that way...party wont give me a straight answer... basically if you want to play strictly party and no other online sites then just deposit/withdraw via checking account (IGMPay)....

For me....IGMPay for Party n' Skins...Firepay for UB, Absolute, Paradise, Stars, and others

had a few questions since Neteller, my preferred method for making transactions, no longer accepts accounts from Maryland.

[/ QUOTE ]

If Neteller is your preferred method for making transactions then I assume you already have a Neteller account?
I live in MD and have had a Neteller account for about 4 years. I got it before the MD laws were in place.

I can still move money from Neteller to my bank account but not from my bank account to neteller.
Neteller explained that this is completely legal.

IGMPAY on the Party skins will work with MD banks.

If I wanted to get money from my bank to Neteller I would just deposit to Party through Igmpay and then withdraw from Party to Neteller.

Them MD xxxxes claim to own the whole Potomac riverbed and build bars and casinos on wharfs on the Virginia side of the river and claim "This parking lot is under the authority of the Maryland ABC commission".

LOL - If you know of any casinos in Virgina or MD please let me know where they are. I don't care if they are on a warf or not.
Since casinos are not legal in either state I doubt this is true.

Then again if you know of a bar on the river warf or wherever that MD built let me know, sounds like a place I might like to go!

LOL I was just teasing the Marylanders, I actually work in Silver Spring so I spent a lot of time in both states. The Neteller thing really stinks. I would be PO'd.

Bill lucky for you...but I will tell you this I had a few friends who had an account while living in VA and moved to MD.... however once Neteller finds out that you live in MD then you can kiss your account good bye....usually happens when a M-landers call about problems with their account...

Happened to me.

So far no problem with Firepay. Here is a scenario, though. I am playing at Pacific, where I funded the account through Neteler. Their service terms state that the initial funding amount must be returned to the same source. In this case, I no longer have that source. Anyone know if Pacific will return these funds through Firepay instead?

Pacific has such a bad reputation for payment delays, etc.

I believe what you are saying Max but possibly it has to do with switching their address.

Below is a copy of the email I sent to Neteller about this and their response:

I live in Md and got signed up for Firepay. It was very easy. However I went on to Paradise and found out that they will take MBNA credit cards (or at least mine) so I didnt even need to bother with firepay. Plus the downside to firepay is that you have to pay a deposit fee of $4-$6 which can eat into your bankroll if you are a microlimit player.
