Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Recently I deposited funds into FirePay account from online casino and when I tried to deposit funds back into the casino account the deposit was denied because of insufficient funds. The thing is both transactions were for identical amounts.

I have emailed them and getting no response I emailed them asking that the transaction be reversed and that my account be closed. The agreement states that you can close the account by email request. I will update this post with response times and additional info that might be helpful to others as I am aware that many have had problems with thier accounts.

Below are some information that might be useful to those seeking to contact FirePay and its parent companies regarding issues as I have found it difficult to get direct contact information other than a email web page and I'm sure this has frustrated others.

My issues are minor costing me only 100 dollars or so of my earnings while gambling online but I am certain that many many others have been scammed by this supposed free service for much more. Not certain of all the legalities since FirePay is not a financial institution but would be interested in any professional opinion regarding tehe hidden fees built into this e-wallet service.

I hope to update with additional info within the next few days and look forward to reading other peoples input. This company and it's parent companies are making a killing off of us through at best shady advertising and we all need to wake up. The governments are after the online casinos that we willingly participate in but what about these parasites that feed off of us all even non gamblers through devious hidden fees and shady advertising promises.

Although it states that firepay is organized out of Bermuda all info I have found leads back to Great Britain and Ireland.
