Hi Tigress! I'm in the UK and I use my bank debit card which is Visa but not a CC. The payment comes straight out of my current (= checking) account. I've used it for payment on numerous US Internet sites and never had a problem. Don't know if this would work for someone in the Netherlands, though.

This is perhaps relevant and interesting.
Explains how the US government sees the main way to control the internet as being through the credit card companies and banks. A punishable party to most transactions. Clearly any reloadable prepaid debit card which allowed winnings to be paid onto it would circumvent these controls if US citizens could get it from a financial institution outside the jurisdiction. I wonder how this will end up ? |

What he/she can do is get a hold of some L$ then sell it on Lindex, leave that balance in his/her account and when thier account needs to be paid for LL will take it out of there and no credit card is needed
Edit to add - this does work as I have a few friends that are currently doing this. _____________________
