Asking here as to not get Moved (Antigua)?

[Whoson1st]

I know next to nothing about Antigua and the business's which are located there?

Do any of them have US counterparts? Be it WalMart, Exon (or other gas station), Sears-Robuck; on and on and on? Any business there with the same name as a US company?

Reason I ask: Why could not a book there simply Fed-X you a gift card from any company that you could use here in the US.
(I'm simply paranoid of having my checking account closed for depositing (even a good check) from a top notch book -- even for less than a nickle.

Thanks.

Maybe I should have posted in the main forumn.

or Maybe no one knows?

I think no one answered because it is ridiculous for a book to send you a $5000 walmart gift card for payment from your sports winnings. It's a nice idea in theory, but unless walmart is going to give you $4900 change after you buy something with it, it wouldn't be worth the trouble.

$500. walmart card would not be so ridiculious if there was even a Walmart available there...
That's why I asked.

Maybe you're right. Getting paid from sportsbooks in gift cards may be the next big trend. Personally I'd just go hang out at a local sports bar until I found a bookie.

I think that is the first SD Jones reference I have ever heard! You get a cookie....


No remembrance of "hailing from the island of antigua" however.
