Entropay
 

Entropay tells me that I can't top-up my eu vcc using a usa funding method so i cant use a usa vcc or usa mastercard.

I dont believe them because how would they know if im using a usa mastercard. Isn't mastercard worldwide?

They are lying to me right

Also i cant use a usa ip when doing the transaction right

Yes, mastercard is a worldwide brand.
But by the card's BIN number you can determine many things like country, the bank which issued the card and etc. :)

That's very strange of Entropay. A US funding method is the only way I top up my entropy cards. My debit card is MasterCard too. Maybe you should try to speak to someone else.

The first 6 digits will tell them

Yes, but you are topping up USA Entropay cards, most likely. The OP wants to to up an EU Mastercard. Entropay has all kinds of weird rules.

I heard that some banks don't like entropay, and make it very hard to top up in the US.

Re: Entropay
 

That is true, but if you top up using a credit card it works just fine. And it is not the majority of banks that don't like Entropay, most banks are fine with any funds transfer agreement as long as it is properly initiated. It is just a small minority of uptight banks that don't like it.
