Just say ‘no’ to crypto. This keeps the site US only.

didn't you leave any $ on the site??

or did you leave what you thought was enough and the "cash out curse" took its toll.

otherwise seems odd to cash out BR on Thursday only to deposit right away.

Not just the deposit itself that is concerning it is if nobody can buy gold coins right now...
07-31-2018 , 04:05 PM
Well by then I went on a bad run lol, and bam...zero dollars!!

Got basically the same explanation.

Can't buy either. Quite frustrating.

Your post count is low so likely you won't be able to PM, so the best plan is probably to post the question in the correct thread. They tend to look through the forums, and catch most questions.

I realize this little story doesn't necessarily PROVE anything but it really happened. I used to play all the time in the PayPal days but then headed for the hills after the WorldPay switch.

However, I took Global up on their buy $10 in gold coins, get another $5 free the other day. My first time back. Donked it away playing .02/.04PLO pretty quick, and decided to buy more gold coins, but got refused like other people in this thread. It was a little frustrating, but whatever, it was time for bed anyways.

Two days later I am paying to get my car inspected, and my card gets refused. I noticed that at the car dealership, the card swiper said "WorldPay" on the side of it. I went to go get some cash, because my card should be good. Nope. Turns out it had been blocked for suspected fraudulent activity.

Who knows though, maybe they were suspicious about my BlueApron purchases.

Agreed it doesn't prove anything, and I also believe you are telling the truth.

One clarifying question I have is was the terminal a WorldPay terminal or was that the disapproval reason it gave? It sounds like you are saying it was a WorldPay terminal. Not sure it matters either way, more just curious.

Because with that said, I can totally believe after you made a $10 purchase with a company your credit card company has never seen you work with before, and isn't well known to them for other purchases, flags got thrown.

Keep in mind that our credit card companies are on the hook for fraudulent activity, so they tend to be very liberal with the ban hammer. And I for one, don't blame them.

What I wish the CC companies would do, is when this happens, communicate with their client as much as possible their account has been flagged. That way if I am the one who got it flagged because I bought two tanks of gas within 20 mins of each other (try it just for fun) or if something nefarious is happening, shouldn't I need to know? I think I would want to know that information.

And with the overall point being, yeah I miss PayPal too.

Do not think it is possible for them to not know about this now. I do not want to play anymore until I know other players can make a purchase.

Good afternoon,

I have been unable to deposit as of the couple of days, no issues before that, verifying with my bank and netspend to ensure the transactions weren't being blocked. The interesting thing is the bank and netspend have both told me the didnt see the attempts being made to purchase anything online, where as before they could tell me when I made a transaction.

I have been able to use the cards making other transactions. Also put in a few tickets with support telling me their looking it. Any ideas where to go from here? Thanks.

Yeah... hope this is fixed soon. Pretty ridiculous.
08-01-2018 , 01:56 PM
I emailed them over a week ago and nothing has changed... I wouldn't hold your breath.

RIP Global was fun while it lasted

It was working fine early last week for me when I last deposited, since this Monday....nothing.

I also got a new Netspend card this morning and had the same issue, netspend also told me they couldn't see any transactions were being attempted.

If major US credit card deposits to poker sites were so easily serviced, Bovada and ACR would accept them as payment options. Global probably grew big enough for Paypal, Worldpay, and any future payment processor to quickly notice them on the books. If the situation isn't resolved soon, Global will either run off into the night with everyone's money, or adopt crypto and become a watered down WPN alternative.

I made a test deposit and got the same result. Bank said no transaction was requested.

What is going on with this site lol
08-01-2018 , 06:14 PM
First I'm nervous for a withdrawal, and now I'm like "take my damn money!" Oh well lol.

Nope. No matter what “documents” you require, if the money can go straight to eastern Europe, they will find a way.

For me there is no issue making withdrawals, made one last Thursday and in the bank on Monday, so that's all good.

I screwed around with what I left online and lost lol, so back to the drawing board or at least been attempting.

I enjoy playing on GP, the mobile option is a great benefit, need to fix this deposit issue and were all good!!

Only positive here is they are not taking phantom payments like full tilt. Hope this gets figured out.

Nice to see someone point this out. People are understandably frustrated, but Global is acting responsibly in regards to refusing deposits until they find a new payment processor.

this isnt the case. I did a test depo of 1$ today after seeing the info posted about this recently.

Today's depo worked with my amex serve prepaid card. I went to the local cvs after seeing adewd's super helpful and informative posts about the netspend cards working I went and picked one up . After seeing the myriad of options available i selected the amex serve prepaid since it had no fees and amex works well everywhere, has ACH#'s and direct depo etc. . Upon returning home it didnt work initially but i ordered the card for free in the mail with my name on it, able to be verified easily etc 7-10 bus days. 4 days later it got here and low and behold it worked for GP depo, in spite of the fine print saying it was only good for online transactions for USA based companies. It worked a few days ago and also less than 12 hrs ago for the test.

Im just adding personal info to ease worries and help get to the bottom of this whatever is going on with the software. There was also a server update last night who knows what for.
