Default i need help ... alot of help ... and i dont mean on the poker table

Last monday after watching high stakes poker I tried going onliine to pokerstars to deposit money as i normally do ... altho this time i was getting denied 4 times str8 ... i thought maybe the website is down or something so i went to sleep disappointed

today i decided to deposit money and still couldnt ... what the hell is going on ... i call up my card - bank of america - visa ... they tell me since november they stopped internet gambling ... what a load of s*** ... just as recently as april 3rd i deposited and b4 that many of times ... any1 else have the same type of card and is suddenly getting denied ... this really is pissing me off ... really ... really bad

ive checked cardplayer.com to see if ne news came out about pokerstars not accepting certain types of transactions - nothing ... PLEASE HELP

If I recall this right.... In my research it states that banks had 180+/- days to redirect their accounts. So.... I think about this time sounds about right. Perhaps they fixed all the kinks to deny US cardmembers. (I maybe totally wrong.. but just something to keep in mind!)

1. Drive to your local Walgreens
2. Buy a Visa gift2go gift card
3. Deposit
4. Proceed to lose your money

Its not like using your bank account is the only way to deposit. Talk about over reacting.

You could also switch sites. UB say they accept credit cards from US customers. FTP might also.
