I hope this is the right place to post this question.

Best to buy the $100 one and pay the $5.95 and get it over with...

Yep you're almost 6% plus your post before you play you first hand...

Thank your Republican buddies in congress many of whom play poker for defending freedoms and getting a law passed to make it difficult for you to enjoy them...

Interesting to note that they biggest hero Richard M. Nixon enjoyed the game...

OK for people who want a simple explanation:

1. You want to get the "ALL ACCESS VISA GIFT CARD". Do not get the reloadable one.

2. Go to this website ; https://www.netspend.com/

3. Click on the "GIFT CARD" tab in the dead center of the web page. It will bring up some information, and you will see a small form box to put in your zip code. Put it in and hit "Search Zip Codes"

4. You will be given a list of local places (you will find most to be grocery stores and gas stations) that carry the ALL ACCESS VISA GIFT CARD. Wha-la. Buy it, use it, play poker and lose money to me.

Why not get the reloadable one? You can use it over and over (hopefully you dont have to), you can use it for regular purchases, and you can withdrawl to it...

I brought my gift2go card from Walgreens, registered it (even thought I never had too before) and it still doesn't work on FT..but it did work for me on sportsbook.com
but I cant stand there poker room and lost my $50...

Not sure why it wouldn't work on FT....

So I wanted to try one more time and got a $100 gift card - and its not working on FT once again...not sure what to do because I really don't like any other site....

any ideas?

The weird thing is, the card does not get declined it just comes back with an error - "We can not processes your transaction at this time. Please try again later."

#76 22-04-2008, 12:19 AM

Well the AllAccess card works on Stars, I know that for sure. Is that the one that you have? Also why not try your luck on Stars, it is as good as FT (better imo).

#77 22-04-2008, 1:51 AM

I really like the layout on FT, I was thinking about trying Stars...

The gift card I have is the yellow one from Wallgreens - its called Gift2Go - It worked for me a number of times on FT in the past.

I might try out Stars tonight...

#78 22-04-2008, 2:15 AM

Not working on Stars....

#79 22-04-2008, 2:37 AM

So I talked to PokerStars....looks like Gift2Go has blocked transactions..

they told me to use ALL Access Gift Cards. So if you brought the Gift2Go gift cards from Walmart or Walgreen - I wouldn't get them anymore....

I didn't know Poker Stars had e-checks....so I guess that be the easiest option for me...

#80 22-04-2008, 8:25 PM

Has anyone had any success using the visa all access card on FT as of late? I recently bought one and registered it online but I keep getting an error message from FT. They're response was 'use something else.' Any help is appreciated

#81 23-04-2008, 2:54 AM

I am not sure if it works on FT, I never deposited anywhere but PokerStars, but when I first tried my AllAccess it took a few hours to get it to work. Also did you activate it online?

Yeah I put in all my information and tried several times. I tried the minimum on a friends account on PokerStars and it worked fine, so it appears to me that FT no longer accepts visa all access.

#83 24-04-2008, 8:03 AM

It would be the AllAccess company blocking the site, not FT blocking the card I think. Seems weird though, because you would think that they would block all gaming sites if they were going to bother. Did you enter the ammount $1 less than what you have on the card? So if you put 100 on the card, you can only put 99 on the site, because AllAccess charges a $1 fee to do the transaction. That is the only other thing that I can think...

#84 27-04-2008, 5:02 PM

All access visa is my savior, without it i would surely suffer from online poker withdrawal!

#85 27-04-2008, 8:42 PM

PokerStars works i just made my first deposit last night and it worked i got a
$50 card and tried to deposit $50 and was declined then i typed in $49 and it worked!

Yeah they get a buck for doing it. I think that most of the people that have a problem, simply do not realise this. I mean they probably keep trying 50 over and over...

#87 28-04-2008, 6:10 PM

the reloadable visa card work nicely and worked at pokertime too

so no promblems here

#88 29-04-2008, 2:46 AM

Okay, I was wondering why people were saying the reloadable card doesn't work. Made no sense to me at all since it would still be an "All Access" Card with a visa logo. Looks like people are overlooking the $1 charge from the gift card and thats causing confusion.

So, the re-loadable card WILL work then, but for whatever reason, people simply prefer the gift card (Maybe the $10 fee or other fees? I want to put $65 into either Stars or Bodog...not sure yet, but it sounds like all the gift cards have set amounts ($25, $50, $100). However, when I go to allaccessgift.com, I don't see any type of amount on the upper right of the gift card as people are saying I'm supposed to see.

Does this mean I can put any amount on these one time load gift cards? I know this stuff can't be this complicated, but now I'm just uneasy.

My all access reloadable visa card has no dollar amount on it anywhere, so I am just going to set it up with my bank acct. and I can just transfer funds whenever I feel like it.

#90 01-05-2008, 1:04 AM

I use all access visa, not sure what you mean by non-reloadable and not, mine is silver I got it online at all access.com I load it at a store near my home and it works all the time

#91 01-05-2008, 5:28 PM

The reloadable ones are simply that, you can use them over and over. The one time use ones are gift cards that can only be for a set ammount (20, 50, 100 dollars), then when they are used you throw them out. The reloadable ones are the same as a normal bank debit card and you can keep transferring money in and out of them.

#92 02-05-2008, 2:03 AM

hey guys, do you know if you give your information there at the counter or online?

Online, but dont play around, because they can ask for proof of id (there has been cases where they have). That is only if you withdrawl a bigger ammount, if you use it only to deposit, give them a fake name if you want.

#94 02-05-2008, 9:47 AM

To clear up any confusion (maybe I was the only one confused lol) I just purchased a RELOADABLE ALL Access Visa, and it works JUST FINE on PokerStars.

I'm not saying that a NonReloadable ALL Access visa gift card won't work, nor am I suggesting you get a reloadable one. Matter fact I don't have ANY opinion on the gift cards. I'm just sharing what I now know.

The All Access Reloadable Visa's work just fine on PokerStars as of this post!

#95 03-05-2008, 3:56 AM

for real even pokerstars ask for id if you withdraw a lot

#96 03-05-2008, 8:31 AM

#**101** 11-05-2008, 8:53 PM

#**102** 12-05-2008, 9:08 PM

Did you subtract the dollar? If you have 50 on the card, try 49 because they charge a one dollar fee.
