What's the easy way 2 Deposit and Withdrawal from Carbon?
I only have a BR on Carbon grinding the freerolls and I wanted to deposit on the site. Before I did I wanted the input of my Cardschat brothers and sisters. I do not want to use my credit card. So am I forced to use a Prepaid card or Western Union?

Prepaid cards, AFAIK, are very unlikely to work. So you are pretty much left with your visa cards or Western Union to deposit. Why don't you want to use your credit cards? As long as you keep an eye out for fraud (which you should be doing anyway, and will not be held liable for), you should be okay. (Although, I would only be willing to use a credit card, NOT a debit card, as the fraud reporting process can take time, and I would not want MY money tied up.) I've only deposited via UMW and Ewalletxpress (both gone now), so I can't give you much from my experience.

Only withdrawal methods right now from Carbon are checks / gift cards. You don't have a choice -- you request a check, and they send you one or the other. Cashout times seem to be getting faster as of late; my last withdrawal (gift card for ~ $500) took 2.5 weeks. They have / had been taking 6-8 weeks, though, and that was pretty recent.

I don't want to use C card, because #1 I hate even having one(Cash is King) and #2 I hate C cards. What bank is the carbon checks drawn off of?

They use various processors, who use multiple banks / accounts IMO. Different checks will be drawn on different banks. Need to watch out for bounced checks too.

I got a gift card issued by a well known card company. Unfortunately I went to the ATM and was told that the account balance was 0. The rep for the card company had told me that he had put the $ on the card.

Attempt to contact the card company failed as apparently their server is down and no one is there to answer the phones. Attempt to contact Carbon… well, you know, it’s gonna take a while to get an email response. IF I get a response.

Do Visa International Gift Cards work? Has anyone tried. I heard they might which is why I'm asking.

There hit or miss for most sites.

my first check from carbon bounced. but after a few days of trying to get ahold of them they got it straitened out and they paid my bank fee and i finally got my money. my last 2 checks came in about 4 weeks and they were good checks

To deposit I have been using prepaid debit card from Greendot - Called the ReadyCard, I also use a Netspend card and you can also use a card from PLS check cashing visa, these are all prepaid and i have yet to be denied unless no funds were available, just thought i would pass that on.

Carbon no longer does gift card withdrawal for US anyway, I was told the only option we have is checks and the process is 4 -6 weeks.... What I want to know is does the rep for this site know of the discomfort the US players have and what is being done to ease our minds. I am getting to the point of not wanting to deposit on any site. OH yeah the other thing is, if you have a withdrawal pending on Carbon you can't make another deposit until the withdrawal clears or you have to cancel your withdrawal use those funds then request for a new on, What, do they think we are stupid, I will not make another deposit until I get my withdrawal, so far it has been 3 weeks and I have not played there thus far due to this.
