I have been trying to deposit on Carbon poker for over a month now. They have done away with the cash transfer option so credit card (visa) is the only option available.
First i had a gift card. that didn't work, didn't do international purchases. Ok. So i need a visa prepaid card that does international purchases. ok.
I go online to find one because they don't seem to be available in stores. I send in for the achieve card. it comes in the mail 2 weeks later. i loaded it today and tried to deposit. got the message card declined. REF:R2Y
I talked to representative, and they said they can't gaurentee success of any 1 card. The reason it didn't work is because of processor unavailability, try again in 24 hours and it may work.
I made sure the card does international and online purchases so it should work. I mean the cards you need aren't really in stores so you have to send for them online and it takes weeks to get to you. so frustrating.
The person then went on to tell me i could do a cash transfer. immediately i was relieved, they said to select cash transfer from the cashier window.
It isn't an option it was there. I told them and then they said, oh sorry yea we don't do that anymore. GREAT!
So now i am debating just depositing on Bovada they have more options to deposit and my card will probably work there.
I just like Carbon better i know how everything works on there site. im familair with all the promotions and the cash games, SnGs, and tournaments, I like how the site works.
Bovada just isn't the same and i would have to get used to that site and all there ways of doing things. Just a big disapointment.
I mean you wouldn't think you would have such a hard time trying to give a poker site money. lol
If anyone has any advice i would love to hear it. thanks!
