| Hey everyone, I've been reading your posts for quite some time and have been very satisfied with them. I have gained strategy and experience just from reading it all. I've got a problem. My only credit card is a Mastercard, I'm not sure about other cards or other servers but my card won't except UB because its a "gaming" account. Does anyone have any ideas on how to deposit without sending a check. I heard many of you using NetTeller. Can you tell me more about that? By the way, I'm stuck on UB, I love the style. Thank you in advance. | ||

| Almost all poker sites use both Neteller or Firepay for deposits. Their setup is about the same. You register with them. Give them your checking account information. Stuff you find on your checks. They make a small deposit, under $1. You log in to their site and confirm the amount they deposited. With Neteller you use an electronic fund transfer (EFT) to deposit money. With Firepay, you use an electronic check. Both are fast and reliable and charge a small fee for the deposit, but don't charge for transfering to and from a poker site. You can get large fees if you deposit using Fast EFT where you don't want to wait for the tranaction to clear. | ||

| I used Neteller first. I had a problem with customer service. I made a deposit using their Fast EFT option, thinking it was the method I used to make my first deposit. Unfortunately, they did not give enough warning that I would be charged like 9% to use this option. I was shocked when it said I was charged $45 for a $500 deposit. I called customer service and they told me there was nothing they could do. I told them I was disappointed with their deposit screen since they did not show how much the fee was. They informed me that their screens were fine even though others had complained about the same thing. You pay the fee so you can have the money instantly. I told them I would wait the 7 days and wanted them to cancel the instant access. They said NO! I ended up stopping the EFT at my bank. My bank could do what they couldn't. I signed up with Firepay. They charge a $1.50 fee for each deposit, but now I hear neteller does also. But Firepay shows clearly that they charge a fee. I was happy with Neteller until I found their customer service was not very helpful. Sure it was my mistake of using the Fast EFT but it was there mistake for not showing how much the fee was. $45 indeed. I am very happy with Firepay. | ||

| I think they made a test deposit into my account in 2-3 business days. Once I made the deposit on their site, I had the money after 7 business days, maybe 5. | ||

Here is a copy from the Neteller website clearly stating that they have still charge no fees to deposit from an account.(EFT) Deposit Type Fee TIME InstaCash 8.9% Flat Rate INSTANT Electronic Funds Transfer Free! 4-5 Business Days Visa/Mastercard 3.9% Flat Rate INSTANT * Bank Wire *Free! 1-2 Business Days | ||

| I had the same problem with CC. I wasn't excited about using my checking acct with an off shore company. I went to my bank and opened a free checking acct and deposit only money for my UB acct. I then deposited through the Citadel option. You basically register with them and they do an Echeck to UB, no waiting, no fees. | ||

| I also opened a seperate checking account to use just for poker. It's not only provides extra security, It was gives me a way of tracking my poker winnings. | ||
