According to "leaked information" that is being reported at Two Plus Two, Poker Stars says that they received just one hour notice prior to Neteller pulling out of the U.S. market.

According to the source Poker Stars was under the impression that Neteller had given their word to alert sites at least 90 days prior to any such decission, but such was not the case. Within hours, E-Checks followed suit, leaving Poker Stars players with very little (if any) choices to deposit or withdraw funds from their accounts. It is believed that both companies withdrew as a result of recent arrests of the Neteller founder and chairman.

The "leaker" goes on to report 'Stars as saying, "We are working hard on trying to establish and add new solutions, and assesing the situation with banks, processors, other partners, and regulators. The dust didn't settle down yet."
