Okay, this is my problem,

I have money in Party which I'd like to withdraw, I deposited via Switch debit card. A while ago I lose said card and got issued another. New card now has a different issue number and security code on the back. I tried to withdraw and cross my fingers, it is the same bank account number after all, needless to say it didn't work. I got an e-mail from Party saying that the withdraw was unnsuccessful due to the change in card details and that the money has been recredited to my account.

I've tried to find a way to change my account details and it seems there's no way to do this, so I have this idea. I create an Empire account with my new debit card, in my name obviously and then just transfer the money over and then withdraw it. I guess this should work because to their system it will be a brand new card (yes?). Or I could just transfer it to my friends account and have him give me the money.

My thinking is that transfering it to a friend is the more suspicious of the two options. The thing I am really trying to avoid is setting off alarm bells, having account frozen and then having to post photocopies of everything halfway round the world.

I don't know if this is a factor but since I moved house a while ago, my new switch card has a different address than the original.

Anyone have any similar experiences or advice?

On a side note, I'm having the same problem with Crypto, phoned them and they said the only way to change card details was to have a balance of zero before they could change it. When I asked how I do this without withdrawing, the guy actually said "Well, you could either just keep the money in the account or SPEND IT (!)". I wanted to pass out when hearing that it was a good idea to spend 90% of my bankroll playing poker or just dumping it off at the casino. Eventually I got them to send me a cheque.

I dont think you can transfer money from Party to Empire. I dont see anything suspicious about transferring it to a friend and having him withdraw it and give it to you. Thats what I would do, although once you do that, you'll never be allowed to play at the same table as him.

Just US credit cards have been declining gambling transactions as far as I know. If you have a visa or mastercard but live in the UK - they will accept it just fine.

I dont think they care how many skins you have accounts at. They know that I have accounts at multiple skins and have never said anything.

Laat time I talked to EMpire support, they said "You have an account at Party also?" I said "yep". they said " ok, just wanted to make sure it was the same person".
