Questions About the All-Access Visa Card

I've seen many varying posts on this card, some say it works at all sites, some say it doesn't. Granted some of the posts are dated, so I'd like to get a current assessment of the card and the sites I'd use it on as well as some various questions.
Currently I have ePassporte, no problems yet, but I have read of others having problems so I'm looking for an alternative method of depositing and withdrawing.
What is the difference between the Pay-As-You-Go and the FeeAdvantage customer? I don' think it has anything to with the differences between the Gift Card and Re-Loadable card, so just checking. I'm guessing the Gift Card is like the Simon Gift card, one time use and can be bought at the grocery or pharmacy, right? But, can it become a re-loadable card, or is that the one you have to purchase on-line?
I've checked out the All-Access and NetSpend websites, and the fees are a bit high, but do-able. I'm curious as to the high monthly fee's for the FeeAdvantage customer. Does anyone have any information on this feature and fee. Also, I've heard and read, that it is re-loadable through PayPal. Can anyone verify that? I'm assuming that re-loading it through one of the listed distributors hasn't been a problem, right?
As for the sites that I'm interested in, they include PokerStars, FullTilt, Absolute/Vegas247, UltimateBet/Poker, and Bodog. Has anyone had problems using it at any of these sites?
Thanks

I have not tried again since getting declined a couple times, I have said it before I will stick to moneygram, same service charge as the visa pretty much. Maybe little more but not much.

I've only used the All Access Gift card once when I deposited funds to replace a portion of my bankroll that I transfered to a friend who was nervous about online depositing. So from personal experience, it is by far the cheapest way to deposit at the moment.

I also can't speak to what poker rooms will or won't accept it, but PokerStars does. That much I know. I'd expect all of them to, but I haven't used it at all of them.

I don't know anything about NetSpend, but the All Access fees are not outrageous. I think you were looking at their permanent card which has higher fees and transaction fees, etc. Wrong card. You want the pre-paid debit card. When you buy the card (mine was from the local currency exchange I pass on the way home from work), they have two cards available. There is the pre-paid card and the permanent card. The debit card you get immediately, the permanent card you have to show ID and wait for it to be mailed. DO NOT GET THE PERMANENT CARD. Get the debit card which is immediate. There is a single fee of $4.95 one time when you buy the card. No other fees and it is not reloadable. You buy it, deposit, and done. Here's the key to using it online. You don't need ID to get the pre-paid debit card, you just buy it. When you get it home you go to their website and register the card with your real name and address. Once that's done you can immediately use the card online.

Thanks. Good information.

I just want to add one more thing to JD's great info. If you are going to be using the entire $$ amount that is on the card at one place, you do not need to register it.

I have often wondered if stormswa had registered his cards before using them, and perhaps that was the reason they were declined after using them at gaming sites a few times? Don't know if that could be the reason why his were declined...

yea I always regsitered them I think, still not going to try it though if it dosent work then im stuck with this silly card that I dont want. I stick to my options I know work.

Well, if it doesn't work, you could always give the card to your wife to go shopping.

ummm let me think about that.....


NO.

Yeah, I know...cold day in hell, and all that, right? But hey, I had to try. Us girls have to stick together!

hey im buying her a $400 drying in couple weeks isnt that enough for you girls?

...she must be really really wet if it costs that much to dry her .

inflation is a pain.

Allaccess works for me at pokerstars, i used one about 2 weeks ago

Unless that one place is online.

And if you do have any problems using it...
Oh, and apparently NetSpend is related to registering your stuff for online use based on the above info.

ok well i used one of these today, June 18th 2007. I bought a Visa All access Gift Card from a cashier store. https://www.allaccessgift.com/gift/index.m go here to find the closest seller. I bought it home entered the amount i wanted to deposit card number and exp date into full tilt. and it worked. bam easy. I paid with cash for the giftcard not sure if that changes it. Simple

hope it continues to work for you mine didnt after couple weeks, sorry im bitter about that.


as for contacting the all access visa people dont bother, I tried calling them on multiple occasions and they dont answer phones.

Wow, you really do have bad luck with them. I just called them for giggles and got a person. Maybe it's people like me checking up on them that causes people that actually need them to not be assisted in a timely manner.

I called them like id say 6 times and each time got message saying they were too busy to take my call try emailing them.....BS, they never answered my email either!!!!

Probably because of people like me e-mailing them to check up on their response times.


(and no, I didn't just e-mail them).

damn stormswa that sucks sorry to hear that. i think i read earlier u registered urs. maybe that was the problem im not too sure. im gonna upload a picture in a bit so u can be sure u have the right one ?

dont bother im not moron im sure.


but again I dont need to use it moneygram is just as fast for me and its on my way home from work.

I didn't have to register mine. Just deposited and threw away. Tada!!

Must have been a disreputable site that doesn't do address validation like 99.999% of all the other merchants on the net.

In a word.. no...a diamond is a gift thats just something to do chores with

And in the famous words of Ron White...."Diamonds. That'll shut her up..............for a minute."
