    So I just got banned...
    So I got banned from **...I was wondering is there anything I can do to dispute with them to get unbanned or something? How bad is this in the grand scheme of things?

    I have been banned from both M....G.. and WorsternUnion. The confusing thing is the way the "ban" works sometimes. I found out in my case I am banned from sending money online and to Nicaragua. However, I still can receive payouts in my name from both.

    The simple work around for sending money is send the money in a different name, as long as you are sending under 1k you should not have to show ID. However, you must keep in mind if the book gives you the wrong name or the processor screws up you could be in for a pain in the ass situation fixing it.

    As far as disputing the ban goes I was somewhat successful with WorsternUnion in a way, however they needed to call me on the number associated to my account which I had not had in 3 years and since it was account flagged for fraud I would have had to send them bills proving the number was mine as well as identification and utility bills. I took it as far as a supervisor in the online department and after fighting for 30 mins to get a transaction to go through I realized it was not worth it, I had my transaction refunded and then it was adios. M....G uses social security numbers for online transactions and you usually have to verify before they process the first transaction. In the case of M...G.. I just had a relative open an account for me and I use it since he has no issues with them.

    If you are not banned from both, just switch companies.

          Be lucky you aren't banned from sending both. Use the other one now for fund security in case u get the wrong name, etc. Suck up the extra funds you have to pay.

            I'm banned from both but use a variation of my name to get around it, when I need to deposit at BetIslands. I'm banned under Robert, so I alternate with both companies using Bob or Rob with my last name. Their system doesn't pick up on the name variation for whatever reason. Sometimes I'll use my wifes name, as you should mix it up & keep deposits under 3 G's per month to avoid flags. This way I can pick up funds if something does go wrong. But with dsi & Bookmaker finally accepting DC, I now use that from the comfort of my home. Saves me a lot of time, gas, & aggravation.

                Actually, blank money orders in nickel and dime denominations are the next best thing. Easy to get everywhere and books will always take them. They either cash em or send em back out as payouts... you still gotta mail them though.
