If you go to any basic store, they sell a variety of gift cards.
VISA also sells gift cards that are pre loaded with a set amount of money on them that can function as credit cards to use online.
Gouri bought one of said pre loaded VISA cards and used it to purchase his Ballstreams service so that he didn't have to give his actual credit card info to a site that's technically illegal.

Still not accepting any new accounts. They still can't process payments.

Not that anyone cares but by the early looks of it, NBA LP through Uverse will NOT give you the home/away feeds unless they update the guide soon.
Don't get it, there shouldn't be differences in the package despite going to another tv provider. Directv had both feeds, so I have no idea why Uverse doesn't...for now. I switched because of this and not worrying about losing signal in rain with satellite.I guess watching the game is what matters but I want Fred and AC!

BallStreams treated me well the last two years but I had a couple of major gripes with it. Last year, the On Demand Streams were terrible. I have a fast enough connection, but they'd always end up buffering/having issues. Live streams always worked great, but the On Demand was pretty bad. I also was never able to get BallStreams working on mobile. The admin told me it's because mobile providers are constantly changing the IP address (static IP or something).
I was going to get BallStreams again but a week into the season, registration was still closed. Ended up just buying League Pass and it's awesome. Being able to stream the radio in the car is legit and the mobile streams always work for me. Very glad I made the switch. It's also great having it on my Dish satellite service since I don't have to worry about any kind of buffering. I just DVR whatever game I want. Giant price difference, but well worth it IMO.

I really enjoy LP as well. The mobile app works very well, and the video quality on my is definitely good enough. It's awesome to be working or gaming at night and be able to throw any NBA game on the second monitor while that's happening.
My only HUGE gripe with LP is Comcast's cheap ass doesn't broadcast every LP game in HD. Again, since I'm mostly watching on my pc, that's not as big of a deal as it could be, but I'm wishing I had only bought the digital subscription straight from the NBA in order to stick it to Xfinity.
I only got a cable package because of the huge amount of nationally televised games that I'd need cable to watch the Cavs reliably. I call it the LeBron tax.
So for reasons not worth explaining I have both LP and Ballstreams. LP is just inexcusably bad in comparison. Ballstreams isnt perfect but a much more well rounded service at a great price point.
If you have an active membership with Ballstreams but can't re-up because of the CC payments being disabled PM me (thats what they are called right?) and I can offer some advise on getting hooked back up - it worked for me.

If you have a jailbroken iPad, or have an iPad and don't mind jailbreaking it (I'm a big proponent of jailbreaking in general...it's a reversible, safe process that removes all restrictions and unlocks the capabilities of what you can do with your device.) I can hook you up with free NBA League Pass through the official NBA app. Just PM me and I can walk you through it.
I've been doing this and watching out of market games like this for five years and counting, and never once have encountered any issues.

Yeah. I’m sure there are ways to achieve the same result on Android, but I haven’t looked into it.

Right on. I'm on Dish Network, and we seem to get every game in HD. I just hate the blackouts though. I currently live in SoCal, so I can't watch Clipper games.
