I just found out that wired plastic has now decided to decline transactions with online casino's. Been using the card for a few months & noticed yesterday that it would not work. Called the company today & found out that they have blocked online casino use. smile smile Now I have a gambling problem!!!!!!Can't gamble if I can't deposit.

Yea, it is terrible that most CC will not be allowing online deposits to casinos or gambling related. I wonder if I will still be allowed to withdraw from QT to my WP? Some can't deposit to QT with their WP.

queen2006, This must have been due to the US banking law due to go in effect on December 1st. The law was postponed by 6 months while congress trys to pass online gambling legislation... but I guess Wired Plastic made the change before they knew the law would be postponed. I posted the article with info in the "articles" section of NoLuck.

In the meantime everyone will have to use Quicktender or ewalletxpress.

Their system was down for only a few hours. This can happen with any company and I am sure you have all had this happen in some way or another. I was glad that they worked promptly to get the system back up because I am sure there were not that many people working on Thanksgiving Eve. I am happy with NetSpend and have not had any problems before this.

After going through it with them this whole year (never sent personalized card, TOOK money out of my account), I've had it! I JUST recieved my personalized card today, after almost a whole year! They returned the money to my account, but now I can't even activate my card to get it. Their whole business policy is built around giving you no options to contest.

I was at at retailer getting ready to make a purchase and my card would not go through. Thinking it was an error, I went to an ATM, my card would not go through either, I called the company same experience as Pissed...I could not get through to anyone, just got disconnected. Tried to access my account via the web and its like Netspend disappeared off the face of the planet. What is going on...I can't access my funds and cant talk to anyone! HELP

This is crazy...I accessed my Netspend acct online around 8:30pm eastern time and transferred money onto my card for my vacation and now i am @ the hotel where I had a reservation and cannot get a room because my card isnt working....I cannot get anyone on the phone just a lame *** automated msg and the website is down also...Netspend is surely going to compensate me for ruining my Thanksgiving vacation. I never had any porblems with them before and this card is only for recerational use. They need to correct the problem or at least tell its customers whats really going on!!!

Well I can't use it for Topgame either. Thats all of them for me - Rival - RTG - Micro & Topgame - wired plastic blocked it. This sucks. Guess I have to have enough to put into my QT account.

DAMN!!!!! smile smile smile
I had a feeling that it was not a 'glitch' the yesterday when I first
encountered decline issues, EVERYWHERE.

I was able to load QT with Wired Plastic.

I got kinda' bored (and, curious), as I planned on playing at a Rival, but the
Wired Plastic card would not work...
I tried it at Aladdins (RTG), and it did work.
So, it looks like, for now - Wired Plastic is only working Club World RTG's Group.


I am also curious if funds can be wired to Wired Plastic, for withdrawals.
If anyone happens to make a withdrawal, using QT to Wired Plastic,
please, share your experience...
I would appreciate hearing (and, I am sure others will, too).

Well.....

On a positive note, NetSpend still works - EVERYWHERE that I played yesterday.
Grand Mondial, Red Flush, SLOTO'... and, I forgot where else (I think it was another Rival)... I am soooo tired, I cannot even remember!
