I will probably stick to paper checks, but this seems like it will be good for the fish.

How is 4% + $.50 to deposit, 4% to withdraw, $2.95 monthly fee, $4 ATM fee plus $2 my bank ATM fee something to be happy about?

SO 4% rake in, 4% rake out, plus $9.45 in fees.

WOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!! Will Stars be giving a reach around?

It seems the link is now gone from cashier.

No way this is good for casual players. They nick you every month, nick you when you deposit, nick you when you cash out from pokerstars and then nick you again when you withdraw. If I'm a casual player, what's left of my $100 that I deposit?

I asked the customer service rep where she was located. She said Michigan.

Also from the email I just got from paytru. Monthly fee of $2.95 is only charged when there is a balance on the account with no monthly accrual. So if you maintained a zero balance on the card month to month, you'd skip that fee. So if Stars picks up that load fee of 4% it will be real similar to the Neteller ATM card for fees. And now it's off the stars cashier page, so who knows.

Yep, at the time I was talking about MoneyGram though.It didn't come through the way I thought it would, but I think this is definitely a big step in the right direction.
