Gaming transactions are coded 7995. Your bank (and most US banks) block 7995 transactions. When a 7995 transaction is sent to your bank it is auto declined. All CC transactions have a code that depends on the type of goods or service being provided.

Should I call my bank and explain this to them so I can get some results?

Oddly enough I was told to check out mastersecurecode.com, but I couldn't tell what to do after that.

Thank you

It is very unlikely your bank will change their mind regardless of whether you wantto make these transactions, especially with the regulations.

Thanks, and I suppose people would have already taken action on this matter if they could.

It seems that a lot of people who work at the banks are unaware of their own restrictions - it was the case pre UIGEA and will be post. I guess banking is too complicated a business for a random CSR to understand it all - presumably once they do they get promoted somewhere. I've found that if you end up talking to a manager, they know what's going on.
