Problem with echecks on FTP

I've started an account on FTP and I tried to deposit with e-checks but when I try I get a message that says:

We’re sorry, unfortunately we cannot process your Instant eChecks transaction at this time. As an alternative we recommend that you try Visa

Is this common, or do you think the site is just down?

I made deposits on PStars using e-check with no problems.

It seems like they are really pushing the Visa thing. That's the first option that comes up when you try to deposit.

Thanks.

I emailed their support and got the following responce

We're sorry your deposit attempt with Instant eChecks was unsuccessful. Unfortunately, Instant eChecks is temporarily unavailable for use on Full Tilt Poker.

Kind of vague. Does temporarily mean for a few hours or does it mean for a few months?

Their site still says eChecks is on option.

FTP support would know more than we do, obv.

If they do, they aren't talking.

I got this response back when I asked how long it will be

Unfortunately, we do not have an exact timeframe of when this issue will be resolved. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Still hard to say if the problem is technical one legal.

Kind of sucks, I just signed up for rakeback and was about to make my first deposit.
