Omg I've been robbed

I reloaded at UB the other day twice and that was easy no problem. Then my credit card bill came in and omg they had charged me a 10 dollar fee for cash advance twice. The crummy b sterds. So now I have 20 dollar fees on a 50 dollars reload.
Please anyone what is the best way to reload for usa these days? I like to get bonuses for reloading but hey this is to high a price to pay and then all the sites want to charge you to get your money out. Wow.

Was this charge from UB or the credit card co?

Last time I deposited was late 2008 at Full Tilt. Deposited directly from my checking account. No problems or charges. I believe people have been able to deposit this year using the same method. Full tilt has never charged me for withdrawals either.

I would try a Visa All-Access pre-paid. From reading here the unreloadable is the more efficient way to go. I think they charge $4.95 for the card

100 = 105.95

they get you for an 8 dollar check fee at ub for cashout too

the bonus is tuff to clear too

That's your credit card company charging you the $10 fee not Ultimate Bet, right? So you're saying that the credit card company robbed you?

If you have UB take it out as cash (like an ATM transaction) your bank will charge you that fee. If they charge it like a credit card then UB is the one who pays the fee (2% or whatever the merchant is charged).

When I deposited at FT I used a $50 gift card. It costs $54.95.
When Ultimate Bet charged the card they only charged it $49.47 (because an even $50 charge is often rejected by the card company).

Instead of discarding the card I saved it, in case they ask for a copy of the card when I want to cash out.
