I read somewhere about 3 weeks ago that there sister book Sportbet (SBR Rated B) was offering it as well. However, I haven't seen anyone ask a question of that nature during that time frame.

Anyways, islandcasino (SBR Rated B) I see are offering a nice 50% signup bonus for initial deposit using E-Checks, which is very nice, even despite the 30 day hold on your funds. Not to mention the fact they do have a mirror site in case their main site does go down for some unfortunate reason.

Neither islandcasino or Sportbet currently have any outstanding complaints or processing issues levied against them at this time.

I saw the max $500 deposit on islandcasino, but I thought I saw a max of $2000 on the Sportbet site, at the bottom of the Bonus page. Maybe I am mistaken, I just really skimmed over it quickly...

I noticed that a lot of books are starting to use that mypaycall method for this type of processing these days. I'm hoping it's successful enough those accommodate U.S. players, however I doubt it. Because so things never work over the long term these days it seems like.

BBD,

Las Palmas told me that mypaycall is down because they have been getting a lot of false checks. I'm not sure if the echeck part is gone or the CC part...thats what I heard from las palmas today

Thanks for the info about this matter sir.

I'm just wondering when books will start using that new Crystal Payments processor that just popped up. From what I've read about that place is that Crystal Payments are guys from iPayDNA that started their own business. Now don't quote me on this part, however I believe those are the guys that left ipaydna. Because the CEO started to take the merchants money and put the blame on the guys from crystalpayments.

Here is what they exactly state on there website.
Quote:
#Maximum deposit eligible for a bonus is $2000 **.
Here is the Echeck rule:
Quote:
50% initial bonus. When playing in the sportsbook clients will be required to wager 7 times, when playing in the casino and/or sportsbook clients will be required to wager 30 times their initial deposit + bonus + fees BEFORE requesting a payout.
The one thing you have to remember is that we are talking about Echeck deposits (The 50% bonus offer) here Moses, so you have to assume they have a deposit limit on that feature. What that limit is off hand I really don't know, because their offices are closed right now.

I don't even know if I'm eligible for an e-check deposit being American and all

Will these pieces of shit pay though if I send them the 4 dimes for the bonus? That's what I need to know.

Yes they will Moses, however you will most likely only get the 20% bonus (might be able to negotiate). Because the 50% bonus was for Echeck deposits only.

You can only deposit echeck $500 every 48 hours. They gave me 50% bonus 7x rollover and cant withdrawl for 30 days......so I'm assuming the next $1500 of echeck deposits you get 50% as well?

Echecks has been good to use at Poker Stars. It's practically like how Neteller Instacash use to be but without the fees. Just point and click - money is there. Limits are a little low but it works well.
