I have no idea how long this is already the case but I just noticed that pokerstars has stopped accepting almost all deposit options...

Last time I could even use paypal to deposit.

Now today I can only use creditcard or direct bank transfer.... No shrill, no neteller, no PayPal, no paysafecard....

Anyone knows why?

I am a bit worried because problems with payment processors usually mean BIG problems coming for the poker site...

Must be country specific I used skrill today.

I have not heard or saw any news on this.

They normally send players email when they make a change like this.

You should ask them on live chat what's going on.

I have been using all WebMoney sites for a long time and it is always normal. I don’t use my card and transfer because of the ban on gambling in country a, other e-wallets because they charge a lot for money transfer.

Two days ago I made a skrill deposit, and for the first time ever - it did not released instantly like usual, but it took 10-15 minutes until I saw the money into my PS account. I was worried at that time, but did not posted here in the forum ...
Looking forward for other opinions ...

Most likely your state is tightening the screws on online poker. And in connection with such bans will not be surprised if PokerStars leaves the market of your country.

don't know who to tighten the nut. But I also had this problem .Initially imposed a ban on the transfer to another player.And then blocked the purse WebMoney. Offered to come up with another option to enter the Deposit.Then unlocked.

In Russia, a deposit is well made through a bank card.

for some reason, for our region the minimum Deposit is $ 10.Although for Russia it is 5. And if you add a ban on the transfer to another player it becomes quite sad.
