Visa Gift Cards Not Working?


Recommended Posts

About an hour ago my gf and I went to walgreens to get a gift card for her. We got one before a few months ago and it was able to work on Pokerstars. However, this time around we got another Visa Gift card but this time we got the following message.Purchase request time: 2007/08/18 21:52:03Purchase amount: $30.00 Fees: No feesStatus: DECLINEDVISA account: 4***********0471Your credit card transaction has been declined. If your credit card information was entered correctly, your transaction was probably declined due to Internet gaming restrictions set by your credit card issuer. This sucks, has anyone else been having trouble depositing with Visa Gift Cards on stars?And is there a way around it?

Depends on the bank.All Access is the best option right now, according to the PS guy that sent me a message after my regular Visa got denied. I'd imagine you can go buy an All Access card with the one you have now, and you can find store locations here: https://www.allaccessgift.com/gift/storeFinder.mgood luck.

By any chance, do you know the activation fee for the All Access card? (if there is one)

Depends on the amount on the card that you buy, I think the $50 dollar card has a fee of around $5.95

Yeah, I was denied by an all access gift card as well.You need to get one of their reloadable ones. I got mine at a check cashing place in NYC...Check cashing/western union type places have them.I think it was 9.95 to activate and i reloaded it one more time for 5.95

I had this problem so I called VISA All access, they advised that it takes 30 minutes to get the info processed that the card has been purchased. Always check your cash register slip and make sure that it says that the card has been activated. I had to return to Albertson's once because the girl didn't activate the card correctly. When I went to use it to buy chips it said STOLEN CARD, HOLD CARD.If it still wont work after 30 minutes call the number on the back of the card, once they (VISA) told me I had to wait until tomorrow to use the card.You can always call in you deposit. But call VISA first to make sure the card has been activated.
