There are totally some easy, easy games - table selection/time of day is key. There are also some regs who are pretty terrible, but it takes a little while to sort them from the solid ones.

At peak time it doesn't seem too hard to find tables with at least one person playing 40/5 or worse.

Sorry I don't have a lot of posts but I've had a check "pending approval" since 4/19. So no, I haven't received my withdrawal to answer your question.

There have been numerous posts of people receivng checks. Things just take longer than we are used to, but that is not unexpected.

Can I ask for people who post that they have not yet received their checks, to not disappear from the thread when they do receive them, but rather post again stating that they have successfully withdrawn. This would help clear up much of the confusion. But I would also like to ask RPMSeth why do some people receive checks earlier than other, whether the reason be location or cashout amount, if only if to manage expectations of withdrawal time. Thanks.

I requested a check on 5/19 that's still processing. A family member of mine who signed up post-BF from the US on RPM requested a check that took about 7-8 days to be processed, then received it in the mail via FedEx about 2 days later. As far as I know it has not bounced. The check was drawn from a bank in Canada.

Others have been reporting Merge checks bouncing

I've moved this in here from its own thread.

RPM Poker does not use player funds for operational expenses. Never have, never will. This question has been asked and answered many times!

As I've mentioned to you over PM a few times, I encourage you to search the forums for answers to your questions before creating new threads. As always, we're here to help you.

rpmseth you the man
dont know why rpm john wouldnt answer my question is a scary time for usa players we just want to know are money is safe
05-24-2011 , 03:58 PM
The reasons to play at this site was the support staff and Usemywallet. Even with the past merge cashier slow pays in regards to weeks for checks...usemywallet got done each time within 72 hours.

No use my wallet...im not waiting for three weeks....

I am too HOSTILE to be appreciated at this site anyways....


if you dont mind the check speed it is the place to play at if you are stuck in the usa

Just the world of poker now. Money on yes, money off not so easy. Maybe we will have to hope faster methods come in the future, time frames of 3 weeks would work I'm sure. Overall I think we are dying until state/fed bills come if ever. I'll be playing anyway, have to much fun and love to take that fish money.

Just figuring I won't get my rec money off any faster than every 2-3 months.
05-24-2011 , 05:06 PM
I am not panicing and I'm not going anywhere. Withdraws will take longer then we were used to but I'm ok with that as long as the money comes. I love the game too much to stop. I am simply playing lower stakes and learning new games for now until I get my tilt money.
05-24-2011 , 05:51 PM
OK my check from RPM which was over $1400 bounced. I've emailed the relevant people. I just wanted to let the community know. Took a week to bounce. Got a copy of the check that says "Ineligible for Clearing". It says I can use that copy of the check as legal tender, but I doubt anybody would cash a copy of a check that says Ineligible for Clearing.

I see support is mentioning bounced checks now, so obviously I am not the only one. Who else?

Happy to answer any questions about 6max micro nl.

Would any of the 25nl players mind leaving contact details? (Redsaddict - looking at you =) )- wouldn't mind asking a couple of questions.

I can't really offer much else except.. uhh.. answers to questions about new zealand? :/

see y'all at zee tables.

watsup hurr. You dont have PM's enabled yet so if you want email me at redsaddict@live.com and we can exchange AIM/SKYPE

I could be wrong, but I think that "ineligible for clearing" has to do with the coding on the check and the rules for NACHA/ACH, and does not necessarily mean the check bounced for NSF reasons. There have been lots of threads over the years about this happening, if you do a search I'm sure you can find something. If I remember correctly Stars required you to send in a scanned copy of the check that is stamped "ineligible for clearing" and they would credit your account and/or issue another check. It may also be an issue of the specific bank you use not accepting the check for whatever reasons.

If a check bounces, this is what happens. You send in the copy and information back to us, and the funds are credited back to your account so another check can be issued.

im just wondering if I get a $1500check and deposit it into my bank account and use it to pay bills/hookers ..etc and it bounce a week later would you guys cover the fees for bounce checks or do we have to pay out of our pockets for your incompetence?
Also if you already waited 6-9 weeks for the check does that mean we have to wait another 6-9 weeks for a possible total of 12-18 weeks?

I'm asking this for me and all the grinders who are just trying to avoid working at some min wage job.
05-25-2011 , 12:16 AM
The RPM staff has been extremely helpful with my verification and withdrawal. My check is still only currently pending approval, but I am rather optimistic in a speedy time as my verification process was expedited and completed in 1 day. I would just like to thank James, Jon, and Seth for their great customer service.

How do you pay bills before the check clears? Do you write hookers bad checks? There are fees for a bounced check and there are fees for an overdrawn account.

Does Merge/RPM covers bounced check fees?

If a check bounces Merge/RPM should do everything possible to get you a replacement check in less than a week. This is a must.

What is the policy?
