Hi All-

I have sucessfully deposited using various methods including Netspend, Loganpay, Quicktender and ECheck over the last several months.

A couple of weeks ago, I attempted to use my Capital One Visa card to purchase gas and the transaction was declined. After contacting customer service, I was referred to the "Executive Office" where it was explained that my account was being closed and this was not subject to negotiation or further discussion. She indicated that a written explaination would follow.

The letter that was mailed to me explained that my card was being used in a manner not consistant with regular business transactions and that my account was closed. After some mental reviewing, I determined that the only thing that I had done out of the ordinary was that I had recently deposited to my Quicktender account using this card. I had deposited thousands directly with various casinos using the card, but hadn't gone through Quicktender in quite some time.

Long story short- I think that the constant manuvering by the casinos through different company names (if you deposit using this method, you are aware of what I am talking about-don't really want to name names here) has been successful and passed muster for my credit card company, but the minute that Quicktender showed up, bammo...the gig was up.

I was a little bit shocked but not suprised because the fraud prevention department had contacted me a number of times after making casino deposits.

Just a warning to others. CC depositing has just evaporated for me.

I only uses credit card to deposit. It has happen to me one time that my credit card was closed by the bank because of a deposit to a casino.

The reason was, the transfer was marked with the mcc code 7995. Every credit card transfer has a code, depending of what kind of business you are dealing with. Every casino has to register with a 7995 code. But many are avoiding this by using a intermediary, witch are not registrered with this code.

But sometimes, even the intermediary is registrered with 7995 if they know that you are using them for gamling purposes. Then your bank might close your account if they don`t allow gamling on their credit card.

I have asked about this before: https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/threads/42251/
