FT "Instant Echekcs" new option
 

I just got the below e-mail today, any(every)body else too?
I'm wondering if everybody's being invited or of this is a small beta testing. Odd how credit cards get denied, but now bank etf's are seemingly ok.

I got a similar notice from PokerStars. I was going to see if anyone else had used it and what success (or problems) they had.

I didn't receive the email, but I deposited with my credit card for free a couple weeks ago...

Are we US players not supposed to do this?

Yeah, I was able to deposit fine with a department store visa, this is nice for withdrawl since i don't have epassorte though.

Whats a withdrawl?:confused:

Is this new?Same thing or something else?

FT has had a lot of difficulties getting monies to and from its american costumers, mywebatm and firepay come to mind immediately. I got that email too, but you have to deposit before you can use it to withdraw adn I am done with FT payment processors. I am happy with them sending me checks and the wait for the check isn't that big of a deal for me.
