Any us rooms accepting these? I've tried Carbon, Bovada, And Sportbook.

Interestingly, Bovada told me i needed to call my card provider and ask if i could have it authorized for international purchases. It that possible?

I've tried dealing with theses, there on and off sometimes they'll work and sometimes not, its worked at carbon and bovada before so I know its possible and about calling the card and getting it approved for international transactions depends on the bank. I tried asking green dot and they said no I never called net spend but banks don't like you to do it. I deposited from my personal account once and it worked but my bank called me and was pissed about it :D I just gave up dealing with the hoops and just decided to build a BR from freerolls but good luck to ya I've been where ur at

This is pretty common practice for all CCs, prepaid or not, to get them to work on gaming sites nowadays :)

If you are willing to go through the troubles of dealing with some sort of prepaid visa card or what not, then you should have no problem with using Western Union. It is quick and easy and they ask no questions!

The only problem with Western Union, is that if you use it extensively to fund your poker and other gambling accounts (Sportsbooks, etc), they can and will permanently ban you from using WU.

You can use Netspend (and Green Dot) to fund poker accounts where they have Player2Player Transfers.

Full Step-By-Step Instructions on how to Fund your Pokersite account with Greendot or Netspend can be found here

Greendot works every time for me on both Bovada and ACR no problem at all, didn't have to call anyone or do anything special.

I deposited at Bovada with Netspend today - depositing live winnings, I am happy to report.

A couple of things to be aware of - I got a Netspend card a year ago to make my initial deposit to Bovada, then didn't use it for anything else, so the account was locked. I had to call them to unlock the account and they told me that I had a week to make a transaction or they would close my account.

Also, I bought a Reloadit pack to make the deposit. Something went wrong when the store put my money on the Reloadit pack and it failed. Reloadit and Netspend were zero help on the matter - complete disasters from a customer service standpoint. Fortunately, the store where I bought the Reloadit pack simply loaded my money to a new card and it worked.
