Click2pay is no longer accepting new U.S. accounts. I called the 888 number and the guy told me I could not open an account since my I.P. adress was in the U.S. FWIW the customer service guy sounded very much like Ram Vaswani.

signed up for them the night all this scrap happened, and got the small deposit in my bank account, just confirmed/activated and still no problems. I was all over that [censored] opening up like 3 different ewallets.

anyway, my guess is they will open back up, I imagine their consumer base SURGED hardcore the other night, Im guessing they will be back in buisness for the rest of the US soon.

I signed up late last night, but they didn't call me, I spoke with them this morning and they said to expect the deposit on Monday. I think I'm out of luck as my bank is Bank of America.

Well, I guess I screwed up waiting and not signing up right away.

Are there any potential problems with cashing a check that was mailed to you? I just have this fear of having a nice check from Pokerstars that the bank won't accept since it's from a gambling site.

for like the third time in the last 20 min. no, paper checks aren't covered under the new law. Banks don't reject checks for no reason. I've never heard of a bank refusing to take a pokersite check.

Don't know if checks are covered by the new law, but the banking industry has already said that screening out casino payments via wire transfer and checks would involve an immense amount of infrastructure change and great expense, and they have no plans to do it any time soon.

Think about all the money transactions that go through a bank every day. It would be nearly impossible to filter out the ones from a particular industry.

No need to worry.

Please don't give advice when you clearly have no clue what you're talking about. Funny how easy it was for the credit card companies to do it. All they have to do is assign industry codes like the credit card companies do. It's very simple to do.

Where you may be confused is that the banking industry said that making them filter paper checks and other payment methods would be difficult. The EFT/ACH system is relatively easy to update compared to filtering paper checks.

huh?

credit cards transactions are coded with information as to the nature of the purchase. they are therefore different from checks. and from wire transfers.

i was passing along something i read in a press release from someone from the banking industry. so if someone has "no clue" about what is being talked about, then perhaps the person who said it is it, not the messenger. i should have made more clear i was passing on someone else's information.

so here is what i should have said, which is true: a couple of months a go a press release from the banking industry indicated an inability to enact enforcement initially, as it is difficult, expensive, and not possible at the moment. many many banks were going to wait to hear from the justice department before spending a lot of money and energy making costly changes to procedure.

thanks for the helpful heads-up, however annoying your tone may have been.

Anyone have experience with ATMonline? I was contemplating signing up but was a little concerned with security. I'm not too familiar with the latest security protocols, but the login page doesn't have the website identification (Lock on my internet browser) and doesn't have an s following the http address. Also if you a member, how are the fees and transaction times?

I saw it in print, not online. If I run across it I will post it. Things change, and this was in October I think.
