A representative from my bank called me today about an echeck deposit I made into my stars acct on Monday for the WCOOP bonus. They informed me if I used my bank acct to make any further transactions (deposits or withdraws) with these payment processors, they will close my acct. She also referenced federal law and informed me banks are cracking down like this everywhere. Anyone else have this problem?

No, not at all. Wowie. Not to be inquisitive but do you have a credit union or a corporate big name bank?

I don't. It's a Colorado chain and I was shocked by the call. I couldn't believe they were red flagging these payment processors.

In Canada I use not my regular credit card but a pay as you go credit card and it's works great, accepted right away. Works like a credit card on stars and Full Tilt. Easy to reload, if I have to, and I only use it for poker, and you don't have to wait like echecks to clear. It clears instantly

That's not a good thing at all for U.S poker players, but you guys have weatherd the storm before im sure you guys will make a plan to get around this redic laws. I was just thinking if U.S players are having problems depositing they could work something out with someone they trust from this side of the border who could deposit for you than you could do an email transfer to them or something like that a bit of a hassel but better than getting your accounts closed down.
