| I'm a US player trying to deposit with a mastercard on PokerStars, but it isn't letting me deposit with that option, and e checks are currently unavailable. Also can't use my MC on Full Tilt, any ideas? |

I think western union is your only option. Someone at 2+2 it ended up costing him 173 to deposit 150 if I remember right.
Im not sure, maybe you can send them personal checks too, but if you wanted it fast I'd say western union. |

| If you debit card says "VISA" on it, try that as a credit card it should go through |

| I always use Western Union. Sure it costs you a little more in surcharges, but they have a program where you get a frequent user card and they give you breaks on future transactions. It's pretty simple, and the money is in there in less than an hour. The only time I had a problem is when the clerk spelled a name wrong and I had to go back to the western union office to correct it. keep your receipt in case something like that happens |

| Some pre-paid VISA cards work. I've had success with a couple...mainly bought from Walgreens or CVS. Don't bother with Wal-Mart. Basically read on the back of the card packaging to see if it allows international transactions. Also -- check out the ACE Check Cashing places. They have NetSpend prepaid VISA cards that you can deposit cash into at any time & they work like a charm. Basically serves as my bank account & have never had a problem depositing. |
