I now only use moneybookers or click2pay and have never had a problem with ID at any site. Remember this too, it was a bunch of Brits and Finns who recently closed a poker network down using a credit card scam, the sites are protecting themselves and you. One site actually told me off for sending them a pic of my CC without covering up the middle numbers on the card and I can't remember which site it was but a buddy of mine logged in and a pop up told him there had been 3 attempts made to log into his account and it wasn't him, you think no one is trying to hack poker sites? I reckon you'd be pretty pissed if u logged in to one and all your money had gone because the site was lax on security or ID verification.
Thanks for that info. I wondered how CC deposits/withdraws were handled and if it was worth doing it that way. Now I know. Good post.
