Re: So worst case scenario with banks still no biggie?
You'll have to excuse leaven owl, he doesn't live in this little land we like to call reality. He believes that any and every transaction is going to be examined by magical elves who work for free during the night, and everything is magically done by morning......needless to say all of these arguements are mute as it doesn't address my original question. How would a bank stop you from buying a phone card? If they can't stop you then they can't stop poker since at PP you can already use phone cards to fund your account. I'm sure it wouldn't take much more than a week for other sites to follow suit if this was the only way.

Re: So worst case scenario with banks still no biggie?
You are 100% correct, the methods of funding and payees is an ever changing thing. Transactions come over with very limited information with non-gambling payees and codes that don't clearly spell out "GAMBLING". For example take these gaming transactions:
MCG Shop Electronic Stores MXPay Uncoded Norestom Direct Marketing Catalog I am not sure if anyone thinks that this would be very easy, but it sure as hell isn't. You start blocking what you think you should and you have very pissed off customers who need money for various things, sometimes for emergencies. Not many banks have call centers open at 3:00AM [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] And actually debit/credit cards are the easiest thing to monitor. Checks have much deeper issues to cut through.

So your theory is that the banks will ignore the law because it is too complicated for them to keep up with? Wow.

Importing absinthe into the US is unambiguously illegal, yet you can order some online today and have it delivered to your home next week.
