sorry, no bestselller was a different moneypack seller on localbitcoins and that caused a previous card to be frozen. I just used that as an example of it becoming more common these days

as for Ms Bitcoin I traded with her last week via skype for 500 dollar money pack, no escrow was used, and it worked fine . It took two tries possibly because of technical browser issues, but it did load fine

Then I cashed 200 of that at ATM three days later and now it's frozen. The card is frozen. I'm out 300 dollars

The only other possibility in this case is if Account Now froze the card simply because I withdrew 200 dollars. That doesn't sound right, because when I log into the website now I can't see my account and instead a dispute page pops up

I traded with Ms Bitcoin after reading this thread. She had a good rep until  few days ago, and that's the only reason why I did it, but I did it via Skype, no escrow. the card loaded fine. the problem came a week later
