Pay Pal

[XXIII]

I am trying to find a poker site that takes Pay Pal deposits. But so far Party and UB are no go.

Anyone mind telling me places that will let me use my pay pal account?

no place will, might wanna get fire pay or neteller

I don't think any do, mainly because of wacky legal issues.

*Insert obligatory "Get a Neteller account" comment here*

Well that sucks ass. I hate pay pal now.

You should try Ladbrokes. You can definately make paypal deposits with them to make general bets. As far as I am aware you can easily move money around within ladbrokes (ie from betting to other areas, probably including poker)

Hate your government, not Paypal.

I prefer e-gold (Paypal takes too high percentage from money trades)

When eBay bought out Paypal they started the anti-gambling rules to avoid confrontation with the Government.

Hate paypal too. They are owned by Ebay who is lobbying the american government to ban online poker! There was a thread awhile ago with a link to an article talking about this but hell if I can find it.

Basically they want it banned so they can crush the competition, i.e neteller, who allow you to deposit into gambling sites.

So hate your government, paypal and Ebay.

Thats a lot of hate going around

LOL that is greedbay for you.. I mean Ebay. but can you blame Ebay for not buying it cause most Ebay sellers use Paypal. So in essence they collect fee's for running auctions for sellers and collect Paypal fees cause now you have to accept all forms of paypal payments.

Here's the reason why PayPal doesn't do gaming transactions:

A PayPal transaction can be funded by credit card. A credit card transaction can be disputed by the cardholder. Claims can be anything from theft to "I didn't know what I was doing". PayPal pays their transactions immediately, but credit card companies do not. If PayPal pays and the charge is disputed & blocked by the credit card company later, PayPal is out of luck. Thus, no gaming transactions. They don't do porn, either. They consider both to be addictive, yadda yadda yadda...

I think the only other bookie (apart from Ladbrokes) which accepts Paypal is betfair.

Not many, thats for sure

Do ladbrokes and betfair also use neteller???!!!
Please say they do.
I really need a way to get money form neteller to paypal without a bank account

Not sure if this is good with you or not but, I might be willing to trade PayPal for a working visa GiftCard. No more / less than $30 at a time though.

(every $30 would actually be $35.27 because of fees)

No thanks, ive got it all sorted now.
I can make a depsoit to ladbrokes using neteller then i can withdraw using paypal. And anyway, i dont have a visa gift card and i dont even know what they are. lol

sorry.

 

[arkadiy]

Lol it's ok, it doesn't hurt me was just trying to help.

*Visa Gift Card: Buy them at stores with cash, the amount you pay is on the card. You have a Visa Credit Card with a $30** max limit on it, once you use the $30 the card is useless and can just be thrown away.

**If that's the amount you put on it.

I already hate all three, for reasons having nothing to do with poker. Try a Visa or MC giftcard.
