Pinnacle

SteveDJ · May 20, 2003

Due to all of the high marks that Pinnacle gets, I opened an account but cannot get my deposits to go through.

Their site states that Master cards will not go through, but I tried 2 Visa's--both with over 10K available but both were denied.

This may be a great book but I am having trouble getting started.BTW both of these cards have been used to make deposits at other sites.

Anyone having this problem?

Send it W.U.

Forget credit cards. If that is all the money you have get a cash advance and send it W.U.

Steve - It's probably your bank that's declining them.

Why bet on CREDIT? If you really don't have the money why bet? Just my opinion.

Take Strut's advice and send it Western Union then, just keep it below $1000 to avoid having to give-up your SSN.

Good Luck

I agree that it is not wise to bet on credit, but in this day and age everyone has a visa or Mastercard branded bank card, which debits an actual account with actual money in it.

It pisses me off when I can not use that, as it is wildly convienent.

Problem with Pinnacle is they only pay wire fees for deposits of $1000 or more. Tried to tell them what a hassle that is in the states.

They do have a quick collect account with western union. Email them for details. Its cheaper than regular person to person. Only problem is it could take up to 10 hours to hit your account. Something to do with how its credited to Pinnacle be Western Union.

Hope that helps.

If you send $999 via WU to Pinnacle, they will pick up the fees. I do this all the time.

You sound like a great customer, Sixth Sense

RobFunk · May 20, 2003

anyone remember 7 or 8 years ago you process a WU with one of these places you call them an hour later they finish the process and put it in your account? the attitudes of the clerks were so diffrent at the time. they were all proud of themselves like "see mommy, I finshed all da mash potatoes! ! !! " now you got dummys carrying on long threads over meager bonuses and clerks like "wheres the manager at, yo" too funny things change so fast

I wish Pinnacle would accept Pre Paid ATM, thats one hell of a good service.

SixthSense · May 20, 2003

Duck - Ha! Yeah, like so many other people, they're the one outlet I just can't beat. I take it from Canbet and give it back to Pinnacle.

SteveDJ · May 20, 2003

Thanks for the inputs guys. It not a question of credit( I have the money). It seems just more convienient to deposit with cards.

Thanks,
SDJ

Use neteller, I like that method the best, its seemless and pinnacle has it!

SteveDJ · May 21, 2003

You are right. I joined Neteller and it is very easy. I am behind the times in the new ways to deposit money to online books. Thanks

Neteller must be a way for the credit card companies to avoid "problems" about who they are allowing to use credit cards (bookmakers/merchants).

Good Luck,
SDJ

Please listen to me.
Deposit by W.U. and then work with Neteller from there. Very simple.

What if you want to talk to someone from customer service on the phone? What do you do? Pinnacle doesn't seem to like to use phones to do business.
