GamingIntelligenceGroup is now confirming the story on their website;"ePassporte confirmed to Gaming Intelligence Group yesterday that players would no longer be able to use their accounts to fund gaming transactions, but added that players may still be able to use the ePassporte virtual Visa card as a means of payment."
Virtual credit card option not likely to fly for long though...
"By moving to credit card only transactions, ePassporte has shifted liability away from itself and onto its credit card provider, who in all likelihood would also block any such transactions, effectively signalling the end of ePassporte's relationship with online gaming in the US."Honestly, when is this going to end? It's becoming more and more obvious that the UIGEA is going to be scrapped or at the very least, re-written to exempt online poker within the next year so why is the U.S. DoJ still harassing everyone involved in the business? They must have better (more important) things they could be focusing on.
