Anyone had luck with these pre-paid debit cards? I got one yesterday as a gift and looking to use it.

I don't think they work at most places.

I used an all access **** gift card at Bodog when I got one as a gift. They work instantly. Not sure about the vanilla's though. If not your best bet would be to go and buy an all access with the card you have. You will have to pay some $3 extra but might be worth it.

Vanilla ****'s are useless in the gaming industry!
But here is what I did...I went to a place that loads the all access cards, loaded my card, then paid with the Vanilla ****. They are not suppose to let you do this, but you got to find a store with a dumb ass behind the counter!

save the hassle and use the vanilla for local purchases
there are much easier ways to deposit

IDT Gift Cards
I used to have a lot of success with IDT brand gift cards but now they don't seem to work....or at least they work only occassionally if you call in the deposit. And for, some reason, it seems like the larger denominations work more frequently than the smaller denominations.
These cards seem to work at Legends, at least the last time that I tried.

I believe the **** Vanilla cards do state on the back something to the effect of, "Valid for use anywhere in the U.S." and that's what makes it unusable. If, however, you get a **** Gift2Go card, you're in luck; that card says it can be used worldwide.

The **** Gift2Go cards are what I was referring to as the IDT cards (the company that makes them). They seem to be hit or miss -- they are good for international online use, however, there is also fine print about them not working on gambling sites. Apparently, in order to use them online, you have to register them at their website so that you can add your name, address, etc. so that they will work when you make purchases online. They used to work for me all the time on Sportsbook.com, but now they are hit or miss. Seem to work fine on Legends as well as on *********** (only problem, of course, is that you have to remove them from your *** account once you add the funds since the cards are not reloadable). However, I have learned recently that Green Dot reloadable cards work with *** as well as Sportsbook.com.

Vanilla cards don't work anywhere. Gift2Go cards have worked at betphoenix bookmaker and dsi. They work at sportsbetting too but I wouldn't play at that shop
