Hey guys,
I'm a regular trader at the transfer thread on -the other site-, transfers some money make a few percent vig, all good stuff right.
Anyways, the bank I've been using to make wire transfers (Chase) just halted them saying 'yada yada, if we find a transaction is related to internet gambling'.
So couple questions maybe someone can clarify.
How do they have grounds to stop my transaction. They go directly from bank in America, to bank account in Germany, then to pokerstars. Shouldn't the bank in Germany be the only one with grounds to halt a transaction?
What is 'unlawful internet gambling'? I was unaware there was any laws prohibited online poker, which is strictly what pokerstars offers?
Eh, finally, is it worth arguing about it with Chase? Or does anyone else have recommendations on banks they have done clean wires to Pstars with in the past?
Thoughts?
