| Some credit cards are not going to allow you to deposit on poker sites, especially for US players. |

then you might get ahold of the credit card company.......there is frequently, but not always, a 'transaction charge'.........let's imagine that you have a limit of one hundred dollars on the card......and that one hundred is totally free, you have made no other charges. One hundred should be available to you.....
But it is not. Any attempt by you to charge one hundred dollars will result in some computer saying "Can this card stand a charge of $105?........the charge the customer wants to make, plus the transaction charge? " No, it can't.
You might, if you have $100 available to you (so you believe....) to charge ninety, rather than a hundred. That might work. And, it might not. But good luck with it. |

thanks for replying. But this is what is says
Thank you for attempting to make a Credit Card Deposit with Full Tilt Poker. Unfortunately, not all credit cards can be processed at this time.
We recommend that you open a blah blah blah....
is anyone else seeing this when they try to deposit money, cause its really starting to frustrate me...  |

| You most likely a US player like myself! How most CC and debit cards work are when they receive payment requests from a processor morethan once they look into where exactly the payment is coming from in this case a "gambling" site(or so its considered in the US), thats why it went through the first but not the second I would suggest going through your checking account by using routing numbers or going through sites like UB or AP that accept Us credit and debit cards and then trying to transfer them into FT |
