I am thinking about putting some money on lock or cake this thread will help me decide on which place to take my business to. my question is about UMW and how lock/ cake are processing UMW is it going smoothly? how is it going? thanks

Sent Documents in 4/21
Documents Approved 4/24
Requested Bankwire 4/24

Cashed out via bankwire on another merge skin during march madness and it took around 3 weeks with a $15 fee from my bank. They told me they were expecting delays back then though, so hopefully this will be processed quicker.

For those worried about depositing, I recommend opening up an account on a merge skin with a $50 no deposit bonus, they are not hard to find. Who needs rakeback for a low volume, temporary site?

everyone?

if u play on carbon and want to do a player transfer, can u ship to ppl on rpm/lock/etc... ?

Is there a way to deposit a good amount into carbon poker? Depositing 1000 would be pretty useless for me. What is the max for western union? Would it be impossible to deposit like 3000?

Do any of the ewallets not charge fees for deposits or withdraws? US obv.


15 dollar fee for check cash out is ridiculous imo

UMW is a flat $30...

Do we get one free check per month? I thought I saw that somewhere. Also, I think lower check rates are listed as a benefit for higher VIP levels.

Definitely a good idea for many reasons. I will echo FutureInsights sentiments and say its a good idea to post the Skin you are with. I already see some have received funds since Black Friday.

Also echo that Cashouts are longer than those who moved from Stars and Tilt may be used to and agree that the main reason is that they do not keep funds in the US.

Very good and correct information provided by FutureInsights, IMO.

Lock poker...

Sent e-mail to support this morning but STILL waiting for a response!

Hello xxxxxx,

Thanks for choosing to play at Lock Poker.

Your Check withdrawal # 3739xxx for $591.00 has been declined due for the following reason:

----------------------------------
Transaction Denied


-Update, they locked my account b/c of IP discrepancy. After explaining, they unlocked. They're going to get back to me regarding cashout. I'll keep ya'll updated.

Who knows if it's temporary?

I sent my docs to Carbon to be verified at 1pm, by 8pm, I had been verified. However, 16 minutes later I receive an email stating my account has been closed? WTF. I went from impressed to quite upset and confused. This could not make less sense. Surely this is some kind of error.

Wishful thinking and pure speculation on my part. Either way, the point I was trying to make is that low stakes mtt and sng players who are scared to put money online can get a sort of freeroll if they choose. The bonus is definitely not even worth the pain of opening a new account on another skin for cash and high stakes players.

The $15 fee pissed me off, but it could have been worse. I'm not sure if it was my bank only (Regions) or if that is a somewhat standard fee from US banks.

Nevermind, support says the message about closing my account was sent to me in error...Some error to make.

Look at it this way- Tilt charged you too- they just hit your MGR. Merge doesn't hit your MGR with anything- not bonuses, or vip points or store- NOTHING . SO even though bonus clears at slower pace, there is no hit at all.

Also, Im not sure which skin you are on, but at Carbon, the higher up the VIP chain you go, the less the checks are until they are free.

Anyone recived payment larger than 1K ?

i withdrew the max amount to click2pay twice since, $2500. i play on blackchippoker, i'm not american.

does anyone know how long it takes to withdrawal from click2pay to your bank account

Is there any reason to have confidence about depositing enough of a roll to make a part-time income onto Merge? If so, which skin would you guys recommend? I played 20hrs/week at 100NL, would love to have 3k minimum there if I thought it was safe. Or should I just live off my regular job for now?

very interested in feedback from US players.

nobody knows the answer to that. deposit at your own risk

approx 3-5 days on average

May I suggest you compromise and play 50nl and build it?

Most 100 nl tables have bbj rake of additional .50 anyway. Play just the non bbj tables if you do. Its an additional 3.5 bb per hundo on the bbj tables.

For volume I recommend Carbon. See last couple pages of the Carbon thread.

No guarantees on anything. I will tell you I have over 3k on there and I'm not worried not rushing to withdraw it.
