Yea mine woudn't work either. I had no problem doing it about 3 years ago when I used to gamble online but now they've cracked down on it I've heard. Everything I've read says the easiest way is to just connect it to a bank account. I'm getting ready to connect Neteller to a small $ checking account that I hardly ever use. I wouldn't connect it to my main accounts just to be safe.... It'll take about a week though.....

In the mean time sign up on Royal Vegas Poker, they'll give you $10 for free that you can play with no deposit needed! I'm playing the .05/.10 tables and having fun.

Open up a bank account devoted entirely to poker. Set up a Neteller account. Deposit money into Neteller from your bank account.

And away you go.

(you don't have to open up a brand new account, you can use your existing checking account if you want....just a little more safe)

Thanks for the Tips guys. It kind of worried me that my credit card acount wouldnt support this. I have faith though that it is a fairly safe. Thanks for the advice guys, I will definetly be setting up a chequing acount.

You can't use it for gambling because if you get your card stolen that's the easiest way to get money. The theives just deposit to a poker website and chip dump to someone else.

It's for YOUR protection

Do you have an ePassporte account from Party Skin bonus hunting? That is actually a Visa account, usable on line. W/D some of that MultiPoker cash to your ePass and buy your chips!

No, really.
