    Sports Interaction no longer can accept deposits from US

    I have been with Sports Interaction for over 7 years. I used a DC for many years to deposit, and than used a wire service after the DC method was banned. As of last week they now have no available deposit methods for US players. None, nada, zilch.

    Who would you folks recommend I move to ? I have a DC and the wire service account. I was all set deposit with 5Dimes but they will not reimburse the wire service deposit fees, which run upwards of $70 to deposit $800.

    Any suggestions or thoughts ? Thanks in advance ....

    Use your DC to deposit with 5Dimes, there's no fee for this.

    5D reimburses fees with no rollover. Just request it

    Thanks everyone. I was told today by 5D that they will not accept the ** DC; just the V brand, which I don't have.

    They also will only reimburse wire fees (that are apparently less than $10) IF you go to a wire location with cash. I always use the online method of wire transfer which allows me to use my DC. That online fee - for same day transfer - is around $80.

    Or maybe I just need to speak to another customer service person ?

    Does 5D have any first time sign up bonuses ?

    Bad idea doing wire online anyway: Besides the high fee, it will eventually get you banned from using wire company altogether. Online is scrutinized more than in person. Just go to the wire location with cash, or apply for a V-DC. 5D has sign up bonus, but then you won't be eligible for reduced juice.

    If Sports Interaction has been down for "much longer than a week" I guess than its safe to asume they will not have US deposit options restored soon.

    Every time I call them, they tell me they are working as quickly as possible to resolve the issue and expect it will be fixed in 24-48 hours.

    Do these cards specify these actions are obtainable,when purchased? In the past I used a card to load an account,but this function is no longer viable,with such card.

    I was told Friday that they have no deposit options at all for US players. I asked if I could mail them a certified bank check and they said no. Each time I call, they continue to say that they are working hard to find some options for us US betters and that is should be "any day now."

    Having said all that, I would think that if they were going to be able to find a solution, they would have. College football has started and the NFL is days away.

    Yea it doesn't make much sense since all the other US facing books at the moment don't seem to be having problems getting around the restrictions to get accounts funded and this is the time of year most books are looking to make their money... Just speculation but with them already having cut new signups from the US I wonder if they aren't really that interested in continuing to service US players and this is way to gradually ween them out without having to deal with a mass exodus all at once...

    Closing up

    Looks like USA players are done there. When u log in all u can do is cash out on a final settlement of your account.
