Can anyone recommend a good way to deposit money at UB? I am a US player. If anyone plays there that knows an easy, secure and hassle-free way please let me know.

UB recommends ePassporte and I just tried it out. It seems like a really good option, I'm happy with it.

Springfield, just pick up a prepaid visa card from a local store, or there are sites that offer them online like allaccesscard.com.

I definitely DO NOT recommend e Pasasporte! After going through the whole process of verifying my bank account, which took more than 3 weeks altogether, my deposit, supposedly available yesterday, is still showing as pending! And, they have never answered an email request for info or clarification on any matter. Ifd I ever get my initial deposit money released, I will NEVER deal with them again.

I bought a plain prepaid visa and it did not work on Full Tilt or poker stars, so out of luck there for me. Yesterday, I ordered an ALL-Access Prepaid visa online so I guess I'll wait to see if that works. Hope it does because I don't know whatelse to do. I'll keep you informed on what happens.

I've just tried contacting epassporte again and i can't get through by phone and they haven't responded to emails. I do NOT recommend this method to anyone. The little customer endorsement UB has on their opening page about "Last night, I went on and tried out Epassporte and have found it to be a new lifesaver. It took me 5 minutes to create an account and deposit on UB." PURE bullshit.

Hey Brett, you're right.I'm still waiting on epassporte, but good news is you can use a credit card.They have an alternate way of processing.Give it a try.

I tried that and the credit card company called my house within five minutes telling me it was a flagged gambling transaction!!

I find that very odd. I work for a credit card company and we would just block the transaction - we would never call.

Yeah, mine got blocked at first(no one called though), but after that it asks you if you want to try an alternate deposit.I clicked on that and got pre-approved.After that I had to call UB and then they confirmed my credit card and the deposit was in.Now I can deposit without any call. I hope that helps.
