I tried many different ways to try to deposit money into my poker accounts all to get declined or fail. Tried epassporte but visa card wouldnt go through there. What is the easiest site to use and easiest way to deposit money into an account if you are from the United States. I have a debit card/ credit card... paypal account .. bank account but dont want to put that online. Need ideas please.

Epassporte will work but you need to use a debit card or bank account to load it with. Epassport will not take my credit cards for some reason either and PS wont either. You regester your bank or debit card pretty much the same way you do with paypal. Then it takes almost 2 weeks to transfer money from bank account to epassporte (cost $2 dollars per 100 loaded to epassport with a minimum load of 25)
You can use your debit card and the transfer is almost instant but epassport charges $5 per 100 for that , same minimum.
Its a royal pain in the ass to set up but once thats done your bank account and debit info are only known to epassporte sso they say.

Thanks that is helpful... I heard Visa like banned transactions to gambling sites if you live in United States. But only question with debit card is... how safe is it to use your debit card online? I know with credit card you are protected but is it the same protection with debit?

Im pretty sure that my debit card is protected through my bank. As far as epassport i cant say.
Absolute will take a A bank draft or cashier’s check (guaranteed funds)
you would need to call them for more information and there are probably other sites that will to.
I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.

Have you considered creating a separate account just to use for online poker? I too am not a fan of giving out my bank account information, so that's what I did via my investment services bank... oringinally the reason was for b+m casino credit/markers rather than online poker, but it serves both purposes identically. I guess there may be fees involved, but it's nice to be able to transfer cash easily to that account just for the purposes of paying off an odd marker, or out of that account when I withdraw from the online sites.
