ePassporte...

[Talking Poker]

I think that's actually a typo on their site - I noticed it too. When I deposited the maximum ($300) from my bank, it cost me $5. All future loads should only cost $2. They hit you with the "per $100" thing for credit cards, but for bank deposits, it seems to be one set fee, regardless of deposit amount.

Maybe I should have posted this in this thread instead of the other one, but you can read my ePassporte plan of action here:


I'd definitely recommend you start going through the motions and get everything all set up now, because it's going to take a good two weeks from time time you start until you have money online, ready to be deposited to a poker site.

Here is an update on this, for anyone interested:

Create ePassporte account - Done (Instant).
Verify Bank Account - Done (~2 days).
Deposit $300 to ePAssporte from bank - Done, finally (this took 10 business days, I believe).
Deposit $100 from ePassporte to Full Tilt - Done (Instant).
Withdraw $1000 from Full Tilt to ePassporte - Done (~2 days).

That's where I'm at now, right about exactly two weeks after I started this whole process. I also threw $100 at Stars along the way, so I can withdraw from there to ePassporte as well now.

My current EP balance is $1095. If you've followed the math (300-100-100+1000-fees), you'll see that that means I was hit with a $5 deposit on that initial $300 load, and that's it. Everything else has been free.

, here I come!
