US player, requested cashout on poker side:

requested: 9/25

Well done Lock. Very impressive.

Ok I was being very patient but now seeing these post of people requesting at end of September and already receiving checks is making me lose my patience.

I requested on poker side the first week of Sept. I think 9/7 to be exact and it is still showing "pending approval"!!! What do I need to do to get a check.

Interesting, so you would be "more patient" if nobody else had received a check for a post-9/7 cashout request? I think it's a great sign that some people are receiving checks so quickly, even though they seem to be pretty inconsistent (or strategic) about the order.

US player.

asked for check middle of last month. approved on Oct 3rd. arrived today.

not bad. almost gives me enough motivation to grind.

Logic is that if everybody is waiting then I am in the same queue, and I just need to continue waiting. But I like the philosphy of first come first served and when players are requesting checks weeks after me and getting results I wonder why mine hasn't been processed.

Well don't get too excited when you receive your check. IF your check was issued from a foreign bank like mine was and if your bank has the same policy as mine you'll be waiting another 3-4 funds.

Tried depositing my check which was issued from a Canadian bank and Canadian processor and was told that the check will have to go through bookkeeping and that it will likely take 3-4 weeks to receive the funds credited to my account.

This is really getting to be not worth it anymore.

LOL actually just called my bank back (smallish local bank) and spoke directly with the branch manager. Since the check has a 9 digit routing number the process will likely take up to 6-8 weeks.

Merge money pretty much=monopoly money at this point.

Furthermore I'm guessing that even if I did want to wait that long, the acct is pretty much gonna be closed. Very little confidence that the check will end up clearing.

Has anybody else had a similar experience to this?

No. I have gotten checks sent by Merge from Canadian banks for years and it has never taken more than 2 days to be credited to my account. Also, I always deposit in the ATM now after being questioned about a check once(it still only took 2 days).

I've never had this issue with Canadian bank and processor checks and I've also been getting them for years. It could be a policy that only your bank and other small locals ones like it have. I appreciate you updating this thread with your experience but please don't make it seem like all checks will have to go through this. Clearly not the case. Hope it works out for you though, 6-8 weeks in addition to how long you've already waited does make playing almost worthless.

I am in the same boat. However, I did email and was told the process takes 4-6 weeks. Whatever, I have very little faith in any site as this point.
10-07-2011 , 08:09 PM
Sigh, been waiting since 8/8 casino side. I guess it's time to cancel that and try poker side?

You should get it soon hopefully. I'll find out if my casino-side check clears tomorrow. Took 7 weeks to get and another week to hopefully clear. Have Casino Side/Poker Side cashouts pending from 9/25 and 9/27 and no updates since.
