ladbrokes take Paypal?

[stinkee]

I heard a rumor that Ladbrokes take paypal to fund an account - I can't find any info on this. Does anyone know? Or know of another site that takes paypal??

No online gambling sites accept PayPal as its against their TOS.
PayPal and there Parent Company Ebay where forced to turn over 9 months of records that showed the earned 16 Million dollars in 2002 from online gambling and this violated a federal law. The company got of the hook pretty easily paying $200K to New York State for investigation costs and settling another suit for an undisclosed amount. Part of there deal with getting off the hook was to cease operation as a method to fund online gambling.
Its been almost four years now since paypal changed their policy. At one time they were bigger than Neteller is now. Anyways don't expect to find a gaming site that takes PayPal not now, or not in the future.

Ladbrokes accept deposits by Paypal.

I apologize the information I posted was incorrect.
I’ll make a new statement in saying: Any gaming site that allows USA players is not likely to ever accept paypal again. Ladbrokes currently is not allowing US accounts.
If they do begin to allow USA accounts, those members will not be able to use paypal.

Yes ladbrokes do accept paypal but if you use it then that is the only weay you can also withdraw the funds from them as well, one of the main reason I use ladbrokes is because I can just walk into one of there shops with my ladbrokes card and deposit money at anytime and also withdraw money.

I have won £4500 on ladbrokes and then the next day walked into the bookies and took it out in cash, only snag was most of the ladbrokes locally didnt have enough cash so I had to go to three different ones to get all my cash, but they are only about 5 mins apart so was so easy and convenient to do.

As for the paypal part I think it cost to much and takes far to long to withdraw as you have to first withdraw to paypal wihich takes a good few days and then you have to wait to withdraw it from paypal which takes anoth 5-7 days so all in all you will be sat for a couple of weeks twiddling your thumbs, when you can just walk in and take it the other way.
