im slowly reading thru this entire thread and i have made it this far ^

when i read this post, it made me feel a lot better about the future of poker.

i think Michard P Raul is right, most likely the govt pressured them to stop because its a huge tax loop hole.

Re: No More ePassporte?

Im just hoping that maybe the US Govt went after epassporte aggressiveley because of the atm loophole. The atm allows americans to avoid claiming it as income if they want to be unscrupulous because there is no paper trail except for epassportes records and the IRS has no access to epassporte records.

Also, one of the main concerns of the DOJ about online gambling is there is no way to prevent terrorists and organized crime from laundering money. The US GOVT prolly views the ePassporte withdrawl from the industry as a big hit to a lot of money launderers.

On the other hand if the letter that epassporte sent to Pitbull Poker is true, and the US is upping the pressure. We are in big trouble, because it will be impossible for any company to accept poker customers and still have a relationship with US Banks. Keep Your Fingers Crossed and take the time to write to the criminals in Washington.

Right now I have a bonus offer from my poker site, and I won't get it if I just deposit directly in from my RB site- I need to cash-out from RB and deposit separately. Thanks for the feedback guys.
...Anyone?

Aside from the fact that Netteller haven't processed transactions for Americans for over a year and a half, no, no issues.
