    I just deposited using this debit card which I should get in the mail soon. Is this card really as cool as it sounds. Why cant all of the players get these, and what is the criteria for Poker stars offering you one? Are withdrawals instant? I apoligize if this has been talked to death already, but I always ignored the threads about it in the past

    I am not sure why they offered it to me, but when I saw the option in my deposit options, I read up a little on it and decided that there was no way that I could pass it up. I cashed out alot of my money, and funded my fathers PS account with money that I owed him. I didnt want to wait for Epassporte again like I did before. There is a monthly fee if you hold a balance on the card. I think it is like 3 dollars a month or something. THere is also a service fee. I cant remember the %, but it was similar to what Neteller was charging. I havent cashed out yet, but I am eagerly awaiting the simplicity of going to an ATM to withdraw my funds. Is it really this simple, I dont know yet, but IMO, it is the best thing that has occurred at PS in a long time. Someone posted above that they had to wait about 48-hours to receive their funds. I can certainly live with that.

    I would like to know what PS policy is on why only certain players are eligible for this option. You would think that they would offer it to everyone. I hope they do soon, because I am not enjoying how difficult the SNGs have been lately. We need more fish out there.

    My request to PS...Give the option to everyone. It will further reflect why PS is, bar none, the best site on the net.

    The first day I got the card I put money on it from stars and later that day used it at a couple places, pretty sick.

    I have had the actual physical card for 2 weeks now. withdrawals take 24 hours, but it definitely is faster than neteller. I love the card.

    For some reason stars puts a 72 hour security hold on all my withdrawls. Wish i knew why, but as soon as i get the stars approval message after about 48 hours of waiitng i get it right away. very convienent.
    Stars do that 72 hour security hold on anyone elses acount.
