Some casinos do accept us credit cards

Some casinos use another merchant name for the transaction, even using more than one name, none of them seeming to be a casino online.

Do these casinos have a name?

No doubt all the rogues are gonna take advantage of this dilemma. They'll make a way to get your money to them, but it's a one-way street. Money wont come back your way.

Wonder why payouts cannot be returned to a credit card charged as a merchandise transaction.......if I use a credit card at a department store, then return the purchase to the store, my credit card is refunded.

If they're actually claiming that they're a casino to the CC company, they're not allowed. If they're using shady means to push the charge through, then they should be able to treat it as a "return".

Personally, I wouldn't touch a casino that was doing it via the latter method with a 50' pole.

So you'd miss out on those big juicy bonuses?

I get better comps at B&M casinos without a WR....This BS just may be a good thing for me.

I just went to Atlantic City on Monday, and had $30 free sitting in my rewards account at Bally's and Caesars. NSA at all. Swiped my card, grabbed the money, and left.

And that was on top of $40 in food comps that my friend and I used for a free lunch at the buffet.

I wouldn't say that all casinos who accept a CC deposit are rogue. As Winbig said, Netspend cards are still working, as is Wired Plastic. Not sure if you guys classify these as credit cards because they're prepaid, but I do. They carry the VISA logo. And most casinos are accepting them, Micro and RTG.
