nooooooooo don't do a wire

echeck ftw

there are fees with wires, echecks are free and take about 2 days at most (99% of the time)

[bware]

echecks isn't an option for me when i go to cashouts any way to make it one?

[jbarresi19]

you have to deposit using echecks and then it will be available

[LT22]

yeah, would definitely make a min deposit with echecks

[bware]

from the looks of it i would have to wait 10 days after making my first echeck deposit to be able to withdraw by echecks, is that correct?

naw you can cashout anything UP TO your deposit 48 hrs after deposit

email stars support just to verify, but I'm 99% that's the case

USE ECHECKS

No updates from people in a while. I am experiencing an unusual wait time, probably not meaningful, but a pulse from the community seems appropriate.
Check Requested: 5/11
Check Reference in History: 5/12
5/22 still not received.

Others?

I had a somewhat similar wait time.. did receive it, no bank problems.

I suspect with June 1st and the WSOP up coming they are seeing much higher volumes.

yeah it takes a full 10 days to clear, than you will be able to use it as a withdraw option.

The 48 hours is for any withdraw, but echecks won't be an option 48 hours later if it's your first one .
