just click on the casino tab on when u open up the poker and it will take you to a page and you can transfer from the poker side to casino side there. It will show you all the cashout options.

When Rizen was explaining the new cashout options, he didn't mention that we would no longer be able to withdraw from the poker side. I'm assuming this is a temporary glitch while they set up the new options on the casino.

Although if Lock was going to temporarily remove the poker withdraw buttons you think they'd let us know. Hopefully he or that generic lock support person will have the courtesy to come here and update us.

I was looking at the casino withdrawal options. Western Union is now going to be a regular option to withdraw?
01-21-2012 , 12:12 PM
Whelp looks like Rizen didn't give us the whole story when he updated. Just got this from support:

Hello,

Lock is taking over withdrawals for an enhanced player experience, as we are completing check payouts at a faster rate, 2-3 weeks. To request a payout, please follow the directions below:

1) Click the Lock Casino tab to launch the Casino in a new browser
2) Click the WITHDRAW button in the Overlay
3) Select Check by Courier from the drop down box and input the Amount.

Please let us know if you have any questions at all.

Many thanks,

Mary


So we trade one withdrawal method for another. They are claiming that their withdrawals will be faster but who knows its thats really true or how long it will last.

So if I requested a check on the poker side a week ago can this still be processed or should I cancel it and try the casino side?

Thanks for the update.

So I try the new withdrawl method and when I hit the transfer button from poker to Casino, I get a message "cannot transfer funds while there is an active bonus". I don't have any bonus in my poker account (finished it), so I'm assuming its the bonus in my casino (from Poker). I played out my casino bonus, and there is 87 cents left. It tells me that that is not enough to bet with... so now I'm stuck. Can't use my casino bonus up and can't transfer money to the casino to withdrawl... sucks... Rizen, please help. I don't want to withdrawls in the near term, but I don't want to have this problem when I'm ready to withdrawl. User name is: Yosemitebear Hopefully, I'm missing something.

@yosemite, first of all it's weird that your bonus didn't disappear. When I went down to .35 it went away.

In any case, you can get rid of the remaining change on one of the slot games. If for some reason the bonus is still active, contact support or Rizen and I'm sure they can take care of it for you.

Guys, I HIGHLY suggest you transfer your funds to the casino side and w/d through western union. I was talking to a few Lock poker reps and they assured me that its a 48hr process and that you will be able to pick up your money after 2 days!!

I req. $415.25 via western union friday night, so I expect to get paid either today or tomorrow (most likely tomorrow)!

WU is free the first time, your only allowed to w/d once a week max is $850 (or$875) though.

Thanks Zack, that worked.

So now I transfered $200 to the casino side to test it out and a couple of things.

1. There is no Western Union option.

2. The other option I can see (US) is "check by courier", but the problem is there is a $500 min to withdrawl. A little high, but not a big problem except what if I want to quit and withdrawl my $. Am I being forced to play until I lose it all or get to $500? Again, I have no plans to stop playing at Lock, but you never know.

3. Again, maybe I'm missing something

Any info on whether you can have multiple check withdrawals going at once? Apparently this is possible to do, but Im assuming it's just a glitch they haven't worked out yet.
01-22-2012 , 02:00 PM
1. I have a WU cashout requested right now, so I don't know why you don't have that option. I hope I get mine!

2. They are in the process of updating the cashout methods. I'm sure a lot of this will get straightened out over the next couple of weeks. Check out the thread in this forum that says "New Cashout Option on Feb 1st", or something to that effect.

If I have accounts on other merge skins, and have a withdrawal requests pending on another skin, can I also have a withdrawal request on lock also? (or do you share cash outs methods and that's not allowed?)
01-22-2012 , 06:25 PM
I have a couple of questions about courier check on the casino side:

1. How long does it take to receive the money this way?

2. Do they refund your first withdraw fee each month, like the $15 on the poker side?
01-22-2012 , 07:43 PM
We Shall see...... Anyone Did WU can give me time frame they waited?
01-22-2012 , 08:07 PM
A lock poker rep assured me that it takes 24 - 48hrs. So we shall see. Its been just about 48hrs for me, however, today is a Sunday. We shall see tomorrow...
01-22-2012 , 08:37 PM
I don't have any withdrawal options in the casino. I contacted support and the assured me that the "official" roll out of the options is February 1st. I guess everyone else just runs better than me. WU is going to be a great method. I hope it lasts this time.
01-22-2012 , 11:42 PM
I hope I get paid out in time

I am expecting it to come through tomorrow, but who really knows? I emailed rizen AND support because I don't want them forgetting about me.

I will let you guys know how everything goes.

1/20/12 (10:43pm) - REQUESTED

I withdrew 500 via WU on the 20th, got an email, and just have been waiting. Now I just checked under my account history that there is a second entry where it says it was approved on the 22nd but i haven't been notified at all by lock that my money is ready to be picked up so I assume approved does not mean "go get your money."

Nothing yet so far..

Mine still says "REQ" and no emails. I am going to bug the s*** out of them about it too
01-23-2012 , 02:45 PM
Jenger, please don't flood them with emails. It won't help anybody. I'm sure we will get the money soon
01-23-2012 , 05:11 PM
Well I am pretty annoyed.. I cant get a straight answer from anyone (although rizen is trying to help..)

Please wait while we connect you to a support representative.

You are not currently in a chat session.

You are now chatting with 'Alexis'

Alexis: Hi there! How can I help you today?

Jenger1989: Hello

Jenger1989: Are you there?

Alexis: yes, what can I help you with?

Jenger1989: Okay..

Jenger1989: I deposited money, ended up winning and talked to a person named Eric "rizen" he forwarded my verification doc's to the right person and my accout was verified

Jenger1989: That person told me to transfer my funds to poker and w/d through them

Jenger1989: When I tried to do that, there wasn't an option to so I transfered the money BACK to the casino

Jenger1989: And withdrew via western union, but I am not sure how long it will take or how it works

Jenger1989: Its been really confusing to me lol

Alexis: you withdrawal is pending, when it is approved, you will be contacted via with instructions on how to pick up your funds

Alexis: usually takes 48 hours

Jenger1989: Including weekends?

Alexis: yes

Jenger1989: So by monday, I should be approved and be able to pick up the WU?

Jenger1989: Because the WU times say 1 week

Alexis: yes

Jenger1989: Wonderful!

Alexis: the 1 week means that you can only do a Western Union transaction once every 7 days

Alexis: but payouts are processed in under 48 hours

Jenger1989: That is wonderful!! Much better than waiting 2 months for a check!
That is the transcript between me and Alexis via live chat (I know, it worked!!)

Its been 3 days and nothing. Not even sure on what to do. All support is telling me is "We will have new withdrawing options on Feb 1st".. I know that, but I want to know is my WU going to get approved or not until Feb 1st? (even though I was assured I would get it in under 48hrs according to Alexis)
01-24-2012 , 12:43 AM
is the WU cashout option going to be available to US players? like some have mentioned, i dont see a WU option just check and ecocard. i have a skrill account as well, does anybody know if this will an option for withdrawals?
01-24-2012 , 09:30 AM
Idk what is going on. I have a WU req since 1/20/12 supposed to take under 48hrs, its been 4 days and I still don't know what's going on or have gotten a straight answer.
01-24-2012 , 01:25 PM
I've been waiting on a WU for 4 days also, but my 2k check got here yesterday so i hope the hookers and blow from that will tide me over till the WU gets here
01-24-2012 , 02:28 PM
Lucky you..

I have still yet to get a response from them.
