can't deposit on full tilt

I tried to but 50 on full tilt last night but it wouldn't let me. Here in iowa there is a law that says you cann't gamble with credit cards but this is a debit card and i have used it before. So i was wondering if i bought a gift card would it work or do i have to use an e-check

After my very first initial deposit on FT it wouldn't let me make subsequent deposits. I was using a Maestro debit card. I emailed the cashier at FT and got a stanard spiel reply suggetsing I use a different payment method and they were keen to suggest payment agents (I wonder why !!!). I flatly refused to alter my payment method as it had been fine for my first deposit. Anyway, we exchanged about 6/7 emails in all, and all I got from FT was the same standard reply and a hot link to their alternative payments web page. I was pretty fuming at this stage so in a final email I told them I was off to Pokerstars instead.
1 day later and my Maestro card was suddenly working again !!
Go figure !

The cynical view is that this was a deliberate block on my account to try to force me to use a payment agent (which charges commission of course). The non-cynical view is that the payment institutions are just crap and it's all out of FTs hands.

My advice, send some explicit emails to the cashier !

u have to use a e wallet if u live in the states. Or u can use a e check. just all the info off ur checks. but to withdrawl then u have to send a copy of ur license and a bill that shows ur name. then FT sends a check in about a week

i bought a prepaid visa card and used it to make my deposit and didnt have any problems so dont think you should have problems

Visa gift cards have worked for me.

Visa full access cards worked the best for me. gl at the tables
