Anyone used it lately to deposit? I was making deposits tonight and went to make my last one and it said I had insufficient funds. I tried a lower amount and it went through. Really didn't think much about it but I just checked and for every 100.00 deposit I was charged 107.75. I used to be charged 103.00.

It's getting really expensive. If I were smart I would give it up. roflmao

Used mine tonight and checked the extra charges. They are around $2.60 per $50 on mine.

and this is what I was talking about a while ago. If your talking about the same processors that I was always ranting about. Granted the casino I was complaining about put it directly in the cashier. That some processors charge extra fees to cover there transactions costs for dealing with the US.

My honest opinion, is that the processors really aren't recovering fees at all, for either the costs of processing or the cost of the foreign transaction. That my friend is passed onto the casino. What there really doing in my opinion is taking there fee from the casino, then taking an extra fee from "us" as a "courtesy" to us for processing a transaction for us.

Which honestly with as expensive as these processors are getting, I'm just amazed on how much there getting away with. Yet the casinos won't do much other than maybe throw a few chip here and there for the inconvenience of having the extra money pulled.

I tell ya what, I'm just glad that I always throw extra onto my card. Otherwise I would be seeing a whole series of declines as of late.

I just don't understand why these US facing processors feel it's within there right to take extra money.

If this keeps up too much longer and the expense gets any higher. I might have to go on strike, and even possibly teach these processors a lesson. It's not right for them to keep this up.

I don't think mine was ever 103.00 on 100, I think it was close to Annies fee...about 2.50 every 50.00, and 5.00 every 100.

Certain casinos I find have different charges. One casino I play is cheaper than the other. I can't remember which is which, but one is definitely higher.

I think it's rather nasty not to be informed the exact amount to be charged to our cards. Hell, they could just take out whatever ridiculous amount they want and say we authorized it as it comes out with our deposit which we do authorize.

I made one deposit of 125.00 and was charged 138.50 for that one. I can't believe how much they vary. I always load extra for the fees but this time they were way more than I figured.

Well we always count on the foreign transaction fee tacked on by our bank and the brand they are letting us use. Yet we shouldn't as deposits then expect the "processor" to tack on a fee to boot. It's bad enough we pay anywhere from $2 up to $3.50 for every $100 deposited to our bank. We shouldn't have to pay the processors fee fee to boot.
The last deposit I made with one of the processors in a certain country. The charge was for $25.00, was suppose to show up at $24.91. Yet it came thru on my card as $27.09. I'm like really a $2.09 profit?

Club World will reimburse fees if they are "excessive".

All you have to do is send them copies of the credit card statement and they will review it.

When I deposit I look to see what the processor "says" it is going to deduct from the card and if it is different, I contact the casino.

But, like I said Club World and Lucky red are good about reimbursing..
