My card is in the States but since I'm in Korea I want nothing at all sent snail mail from them to my address in the States. Do they send stuff out?

Can you fund from a Korean bank? If so, how did you do it?

How are you doing there?

I just started today, so bare with me Smile

Everything is done via email.

You can fund from a Korean Bank. When you click on the cashier option and ask to deposit then click on "local bank" you will then get the details of the Korean Bank you need to deposit into. I haven't tried this option, but they say it will take up to 4 days which is a bit of a blow.

Cool. I could fund from either the US or Korea but from here would be much easier. Except it said I'd have to do extra legwork if I wanted to change my official address from Korea to the US... which I might have to do if it doesn't let me fund from a Korean bank.

There's a long reference number that you have to put in for PokerStars to validate or w/e when you do the bank transfer in Korea but none of my 3 Shocked banks let me put in a number that long online.

One bank does have an option for a CMS number, I guess I could enter it there and in the memo box type SEE CMS... ugh. Ideas?

Others can chime in cuz I'm a complete newbie but I found the site itself to be very informative but also confusing because there are so many different ways to pay depending on what country you're from.

I'm going with the bank transfer but the trick is getting the reference number attached with the transfer itself...
