I’m trying to find a new company to use to process online payments. I only had an account with Neteller, so I’m not sure who to use now. I’d heard good things about Click2Pay, but they aren’t opening new accounts in the US.

So, which companies have a good reputation and don’t charge crazy fees? I’d rather find a company that most sites accept, but that doesn’t really seem likely at this point. I am mainly looking for someone who works with some combination of Fulltilt, PokerStars and Bodog.

Suggestions?

Hey, everybody. I’m still here. I cashed out most of my bankroll to cover some real-life expenses, and set up an account at UltimateBet to take advantage of their bonus. It’s been pretty good so far; in fact, Wednesday night (actually, early Thursday morning) I won a $10 + $1 MTT for a $337.50 score.

I have a problem, though. When I try to type and play at the same time, the site freezes up on me. For example, if I were playing while trying to write this post, if the table window were to pop up because action was on me, I’d get froze. Also, if I’m multitabling and trying to chat at one table and the other table pops up, that makes it freeze, too.

This is really annoying, as I’m somewhat chatty when playing, and action at UB moves faster than at any other site I’ve played at. If anyone else had this problem, or has ideas on how to fix it, let me know.

Also, in the future, after I’ve cleared the bonus at UB (especially if this annoying freeze issue can’t be solved), what other sites are still open to U.S. players? I already have accounts at the Big Four (Absolute, Full Tilt, PokerStars, UltimateBet), and want to know if there’s any other pro-U.S. site I haven’t been to so I can take advantage of bonuses.
