I’ve heard that even with cards from places like Chase or Goldman Sachs, you can run into some annoying hiccups here and there, but personally, I stick with Citibank. Before I even opened my account, I made sure to check in with some veteran players to see what they thought, and everyone pointed me toward Citibank. So far, every single one of my transactions has gone through without a hitch, so I can definitely vouch for using their Visa card for all my online betting needs.

slyeagle13 said:Hey there,
just wondering if I can actually use an Intel card to make a deposit on this site? 😉

You definitely can. I personally use my Citibank Intel card linked to my foreign currency account all the time for deposits and withdrawals at various online sportsbooks and PayPal accounts. As long as your card has that three-digit CVV2 code on the back, you should be good to go without any issues!

The card Billing address is just the address registered to your card—basically, your home address if the card belongs to you.

Well, that's exactly what I was asking! I actually just heard back from someone else who confirmed it's the address on the card, which would be my home address.
When I used the word "send," I was really thinking about uploading the files via their mobile app.

Thanks! 👍 🙂

amberpanther57 said:So, I've run into one specific field labeled: "card Billing address". 😕 What exactly does that mean? What am I supposed to put there? My English is a little rusty, so while I get most of the other parts, this one has me stumped.

I'd really appreciate some help from anyone who's already navigated this process. Thanks!

Is anyone around? husky, Terry Rogers2, or seriously, anybody else... I was hoping to get this sent out by tomorrow...

Heh, it's me again! 😬

I need to send Pinnacle a scanned copy of my ID, my credit card, and that "Authorization statement" they sent over for me to fill out and scan back to them.

Now, there's this one field labeled: "card Billing address". 😕 What exactly does that mean? What am I supposed to put there? My English is a little shaky, and while I get everything else on the form, this part has me stumped.

Could someone who's already gone through this process please give me a hand? Thanks!

Terry Rogers2 says: Once you get all your verification sorted out, you can bump your limit up to $22,000.00, and if that still doesn't cut it, you can just ask them to grant you "pro gambler" status—then honestly, the sky's the limit! 😁 👍

Thanks. At the end of the day, the most important thing is knowing that I actually have the option to increase my limit 👍
As for that "pro gambler" status, I wouldn't even dare to dream about that one yet! 😬

Alexander Hill2 said:It’s a pretty decent way to do things, though if you’re constantly moving money in and out, you’ll hit those transaction limits before you know it. Plus, why bother using an intermediary if you don't have to? In my experience, going direct is usually free, whereas Moneybookers can end up hitting you with extra fees depending on the situation.

Thnx.
Everything is working smoothly on my end now, but looking at those limits, it seems like Moneybookers really restricts what you can actually do. I think I'll still use them for one smaller portion of my funds, but for everything else, I'm just going to deposit directly into the betting sites.

I sent everything right away, but I haven't heard a peep back in two days. Meanwhile, I can make deposits and withdrawals on all my other poker sites without any issues at all. Their support team is basically useless right now.

Hmm, I don't quite get how a card specifically designed for online shopping could suddenly be blocked from doing exactly that. Who knows, maybe Chase messed something up on their end...
I think I read somewhere once that it can actually take up to a week for them to get back to you. 🙄

Alexander Hill2 said:What you really ought to do before making your first deposit via card is verify it first. They’ll pull a tiny random amount—like maybe $2 or $3—from your account, and you just have to enter that exact amount. It won't fail; it just stays on your MB balance, and from there, all your deposits work perfectly fine. If you haven't done that yet, give it a shot, but if you already have, I'd say either send them an email or just go ahead and deposit directly from your card to the bookie.

So, I followed their FAQ instructions to the letter this time and it actually worked! Well, sort of. I was doing the same thing I did when I just clicked "upload funds," but I realized I needed to verify by entering the precise amount they snatched from my foreign currency account. I checked my Chase app to be sure, and they definitely took $2.47.
But then, as soon as I typed it into their verification screen, it popped up with You have entered the incorrect amount... WTF?
Now I'm stuck waiting 24 hours before I can even try again.
Does anyone know if Chase might be charging some kind of transaction fee that's making the amount shown on my bank statement different from what PayPal actually grabbed?

Since I've set aside about $3,000 for online gambling, I'm curious what you'd suggest? Should I move all my cash over to PayPal, or is it better to just deposit directly to the sites using my card (like Las Vegas, which is probably where I'll be playing the most)?

I gave it another shot today and, honestly, still no luck. It’s the exact same headache I had yesterday. It’s not even getting to the point where they ask me to send anything; the app just pops up out of nowhere and tells me to enter a "valid card number" instead!

Has anyone else run into this kind of glitch? Cafa? Leonard Nimoy? briskjackal5? skeeve? Or maybe someone else entirely?

Could someone give me a hand here?
I just opened up a foreign currency checking account over at Chase and got my Visa card. I went ahead and signed up for PayPal to try and upload some funds, but after I typed in all the numbers and details and hit "add," it keeps giving me an error saying I need to enter a valid card number 😕
. I’ve double-checked everything five times now, and I am positive the number is correct. What should I do? Is there some way to enter a "more correct" number?

Also, on the section where they ask if I'm going to use the money for GAMBLING, I told them yes. Should I be honest about that, or is it better to lie?

Wait, so the whole Bill Gates hate club didn't show up then... ???

I’m definitely pulling for AS Monaco here... partly because of Pršo, but mostly because I honestly think they’ve played the most beautiful football through the knockout stages (I hadn't followed them quite this closely before, to be honest), plus I've always had a soft spot for French clubs, though I'll pass on Marseille...

It would be such a dream if the final score ended up 3-2 for Monaco, especially if we got to see Pršo net that deciding goal right in the 90th minute...😁

Looks like everything is back to normal now! 👍

I finally managed to get this page added to my favorites... 👍

On a side note, that "Unified Rules of MMA" link wasn't working for me at all...

skeptik said:Since he's a DIF fan, I feel like it’s more likely he was involved in some more traditional martial art rather than something like the UFC.

But I actually remember hearing stories about how his professor used to mess with him... something along the lines of "hey, where's that Ultimate Fighter?"😁

Man, I was standing in line at the campus dining hall yesterday, just waiting my turn, when I realized I was stuck right behind some guys from the ROTC program... and I overhear them talking about how one of their buddies—this absolute unit of a guy—is actually scheduled to go up against some guy from a rival school in an upcoming tournament.... they were all laughing and joking around about it, so I honestly just figured it was one of those typical college pranks or some inside joke... 😕

Now I'm starting to think they might actually be serious...

wearyraven41 said:If things keep going this way, we might actually see WRC pulling more eyes than Formula 1 by next year!👍

I’m honestly happy to see how Ford is doing, though I can't help but think they got lucky when Sébastien Loeb hit that rock and had to bail because of an oil leak...

Still, I bet Petter Solberg would have snatched the win with that new Impreza, especially since he's trailing by 3 minutes and 15 seconds but somehow ends up with a 5 and a half minute penalty just because the Impreza wouldn't start properly...

It's going to be pretty brutal for the rest of the competition if that new Impreza stays this fast...

I absolutely love WRC too... I'm a huge Subaru fan, so naturally, I'm rooting for Petter Solberg as well...
He just didn't have any luck this time—I'm not entirely sure if it was the delays or that penalty, but man, the guy was absolutely flying through those stages...
I really think Solberg will end up being the best driver this year, though the Impreza seems a little too heavy for the asphalt sections, so we might see some slightly weaker results there...
