I am a New York resident who wants to deposit onto Bovada. They don't accept my Visa card... is there anything else I can do now that they don't accept Western Union?

What banks allow Bovada visa deposits?

I have never seen a worse MTT structure or stalling in my life. BY FAR the worst is the hyper turbo 3 min blinds where everyone has a 30 seconds to act and 90 sec timebank...I have literally seen blinds go up twice before I even got through the blinds. I don't get it...and won't ever play one again.

Hi there, same issue. NY resident, purchased the visa netspend card. Doesn't work at all. I have also tried the visa vanilla with no luck. CS told me there's nothing that can be done but they are researching other options for ny residents to deposit.

This is such b.s. Can't play on merge cause they straight-up dont allow ny residents to play. Cant play on Bovada due to lack of deposit options. Looks like we're stuck with brick & mortar.

Is there anyone out there from New York who has had luck depositing after WU/Moneygram options have been taken away? Please help!

Pretty sure they release the bonus in increments? I dunno. Be nice if they just sent a quick email for stuff like this.

Hey Tdubs! I've tried different monetary amounts, up to the max allowed number of tries (10 per day), for 4 days now. 40 different sets of numbers and still no acceptance. I think its just because I'm in New York...

yea man im in WA and have been having the same problems - i called CS yesterday and they said theres nothing i can do and that they "hope" to have a way of depositing soon but cant guarantee anything.

I also followed up with an email to them basically asking what they were doing to solve the problem of me not being able to deposit (and i also reccomended them using WU in my state since it isn't through the banks). Below is their response:

From my experience so far and what CS has been telling me, the answer is no. Granted, I haven't received my new netspend card (with my name on it) in the mail yet. I just used the temp card, which shouldn't matter but you never know. I'll update this thread when I try depositing with the new card (in 5 days or so).

I was literally about to buy a netspend card but i guess now i wont...
CS rep told me this afternoon that it works for some people... but what you are saying does not sound encouraging..... ****.

That sucks dude. I just opened an america's cardroom account and I'll be depositing today. It's just too bad. I'd rather play on bovada, even with the anonymous tables.
