I'm very interested in trying to deposit but, after BF nothing worked for me, what's the best option for depositing when Debit/Credit cards don't work??

You can deposit through WU's website using your mastercard.

Or you can go to any cvs/rite aid/kroger/safeway/meijer/walmart/etcetcetc and spend the 5 minutes it takes to western union some money for a 12 dollar fee. I know us poker players are generally antisocial, but **** you gotta leave the house sometime.

Had the same problem. My debit card is a Master Card so I purcahsed a VISA gift card to load up. It wouldn't go through because VISA kept rejecting the transaction knowing it was a "gambling site". So I spoke to the site's support and they were able to make the transaction go through.
Give them a call. They already had the card info, all they needed was the 3 digit code from the back of the card. Within minutes of calling, I was at the tables.

When I first saw the commercial I thought it was a sweepstakes poker site. I thought, what real money poker site would have the ballz to advertise on TV after BF? Obviously, America's Cardroom does. I think it's ****ing great! It's like a big middle finger to the U.S. government. I may play there exclusively just for this reason. If they keep the ads going, the players will come.

My exact thought KingKong. Hopefully this will help led the way for more ads in the US.

It took me even less time. I signed up for WU online and deposited in a few minutes. Why don't you guys use WU online? It's easy and you don't have to worry about it being a gambling transaction.

Fees are higher online, as far as I can tell. It's just $12 to deposit in a store.
