Re: refer to sender check.bounced..wtf

I just checked my online banking and my Full Tilt check that I deposited on Monday bounced this morning. So I guess it's not exclusive to Stars. This really sucks.

What banks are you guys using?

I just got a Stars check today and was going to deposit at my local Chase branch.

Online poker is legal, sure, except when you want to deposit or get paid... :/

I'm at a local credit union that I've deposited dozens of poker checks at before, so I'm pretty sure the problem is with the processor bank.

Re: refer to sender check.bounced..wtf

just cashed my stars check yesterday at BOA on Park Ave and 52nd st in NYC, they were glad to do biz with me. They gave me five Benjamins for a $500 check, backed by my ever increasing checking account balance.

Which got me thinking: How in hell would a bank know by looking at the check, that it is from a gambling site? From the looks of things, some depositers come in with 50 or 100 checks at a time, so it seems impossible that the bank would stop to look up from processing this crap to deny lowly poker scum like us check cashing privileges...

Re: refer to sender check.bounced..wtf

went to cash $4k check today and same response. the guy said to contact processor that on there end it said something about the account being frozen. It seems to be something wrong with the payment company, bank wasnt refusing to cash it they just couldnt, so i dont know how much truth there is to banks refusing to cash online gambling checks.... i didnt email stars but probably will soon...i left a message with the payment company...

Maybe that processor scammed stars and ran off with the money. I believe the processors are tools contracted by stars, so cash outs can be processed in the US...

Check cashing store FTW might have to pay higher fees but this is what I use and this way there is no bank trail of the transaction.
