I have a question about deposits

[Go Bears!]

I have had an account on Sportsbook for quite some time. I emtied the account, and have been going through my local only for the last couple of weeks. Today I decided to put money on my account and my credit card was denied. I tried to get a Bogdog account they want my checking account info., or send them a copy of my credit card within 3 days. (fuck that) So I tried Pinnacle same thing. It was suggested by sportsbook to go through netteller. I have an account, so I tried to put money in it, with my credit card, then put it in sportsbook. I was denied again. Is it just Visa that is fucking with me? I have zero credit card debt so I know it is not that. I don't really need to be betting on line right now, but I would like to. Really now it has become personal. I am bound and determined to get money in an account some how. It seems however that Visa is not going to allow it. I have tried both of my Visas and my Visa check card. Any suggestions?

VISA and MC usually block deposits to sportsbooks/ online poker.

I have never had a problem, until now.

Yep, nearly ALL MasterCard and VISA cards block any deposit to ANYTHING including Neteller and other 3rd parties.

I suggest signing up with Neteller and leveraging your checking/savings account. That's what I do. They draft the money and it takes 5 days. There is a process involved, but it is flawless. Always make sure you use your Savings account and have the money in there within 24 hours or you may get a $30 NSF fee from Neteller.

i think it depends on the bank...i read your first post, and tried doing it just now and it went thru for me from my pay-pal mastercard...good luck to you...

[betdogs]

i'd suggest using pay-pal. it's easy to set up thru pay-pal and you can transfer money from your bank to pay-pal, and then to a sportsbook...

[goodboy]

it works thru pay pal because they do no affiliate themselves with gambling sites so you cant put money from pay pal to your sportsbooks so visa and mastercard wont decline it

the only problem with paypal is that most sportsbooks don't accept it I believe. Neteller, FIREpay are two good online banking merchants.

I wouls suggest you use either NetTeller or FirePay or send them a check Western Union

You cannot use paypal to fund a sportsbook.

Neteller is by the far best way. I don't understand why you can't get through though. Have you tried sports interaction on this site? They have some e-check that gives you a 20% bonus.

That's correct, thanks Monte..Oh, also, thanks for the sign-up bonus Monte..sorry for my slow process.

In order to use the credit card you have to make copies of the front and back, plus submit some authorization form. I really didn't want the hassle. Before I could just submit my request and bam it was there. I guess I am going to have to bite the bullet, and do what they ask, or not bet online. I love the quarter bets, and the halftime bets though, my local does not offer those.

Go to the sportsbook recommended page by clicking on the link in my signature and look at the other ways of depositing. Click on each book listed and it will give you the ways of depositing. Some use similiar companies like neteller which may work for you.

I set up an account at neteller and swiftpay using my checking account,both were fast and easy.
