Let's not name the bank here, but anyone who has gotten a bank transfer do you use a large bank or small local bank? Mine is one of the larger ones and it's been 3 weeks since mine was approved. Where is my money? I have quit playing on the site....

I use a very large, well-known bank, and have been waiting since the 26th.

I use a large nationwide bank and received both my bank transfers exactly 12 days after they were processed. The bank transfer option has proved to be unreliable and has been removed from the client as an option. Check withdrawals are $3000 max instead of $2500 and per the CEO you can now request up to 8 checks per month.

If you have a pending bank transfer it will still be processed, however, moving forward, checks are definitely the way to go.

If you have a bank transfer request that is more than 2 weeks old, I would suggest contacting Rizen, Shane or Jenn directly to get the money credited back to your account so you can request a check.

Just my 2 cents.

WU is a really good option for smaller amounts and quick cashouts. Mine have been taking like 48 hours from request to pickup. Do not get rid of them plz.

Asking to have WU removed is one of the worst ideas I've ever read on 2+2 (and I read BBV daily ).

We are so limited with cashout options in the U.S. that the thought of removing a fast and reliable cashout method is mind boggling. Personally, it took me over a month to receive my WU, but I would still be upset if they removed it as an option. I understand that mistakes sometimes happen. I have seen an overwhelming amount of players post that they've had their money within 2 days. Overall, WU is extremely reliable

Checks may be reliable today, but there's no guarantee they will be tomorrow. I think it's too early to start burning bridges.
Yea the beginning does kinda sound like I'm being facetious but you cant live on 3 250$ cashouts a month unless u want to argue that too.. it took u one month that's not very reliable its slowing down their system so they might aswell focus on one super reliable cashout for us players. What are you going to do with 3 250$ cashouts a month really that is 675$ a month after fees its just slowing down and it is only here to attract more us players but they need to see how focusing on having the best check service in the US will in the end attract more players. I don't see how the checks could get slower if it is the only payout they already are sending checks out really fast during maximus so there is no reason it would slow down later on unless they are stalling for the doj.

Shut up. The checks have nothing to do with the wu cashouts. This isnt about what you need to live on. Having more than 1 cashout method is a good thing and the reason alot of ppl are on this skin is because of the better cashier.

Also my bank transfer req 3-3 and processed 3-6 was in my acct on 3-20. Still over twice as fast a max carbon cashout but I wont miss this option.

It sounds like you've never even done a WU cashout if you think $225 is the most you can receive after fees.

However, you're being extremely short-sighted by assuming a method that works today will work just as well days, weeks, or even months from now.

WU is a proven working cashout method. My situation was so atypical and extreme, it's not even worth discussing. Most players receive money from WU in a matter of days. Sure, WU could become a non-reliable method in the future, but we can worry about that when it happens.

If you don't like WU, don't use it. I really don't understand why you would go out of your way to have a working cashout method removed.

Either way this argument is pointless, since there's no way Lock removes WU because of your posts.

I'm done, GL at the tables

yep processed 3/1 still nothing
03-22-2012 , 04:24 PM
Hes right i feel safe now that days weeks or months later when my 3000$ check doesn't come through i can safely and reliably get that 3000$ in 4months of straight western union withdrawals
03-22-2012 , 04:24 PM
well hopefully we get the final batch of bank transfers then... still waiting sigh
03-22-2012 , 04:38 PM
Also 3/1 here, anyone get one from that date? Is it the batch or the bank?
03-22-2012 , 09:19 PM
requested 2/29

03-22-2012 , 10:55 PM

03-23-2012 , 04:54 AM

Having WU does not necessarily have an effect on the speed of checks dude. I've only done one WU cashout, but I had my money in hand like 3 days after I requested it. It's a really good option to have if you need money quickly, or if you're a low stakes player. Sure, the max has fluctuated from $250 to $850 and then back down, but I'm confident it will be back up again.

The site has been consistently inconsistent, but they are working on it. Your argument against WU bears no weight, pure and simple.

3/23 now and still no bank transfer. Req 2/25. Shane specifically stated that all outstanding payments would be taken care of by the processor by the end of this week. Since everyone seems to receive their transfers before 11 AM EST I assume that I will not get mine today. Amazing how many time frames you give us yet none of them are accurate. You might as well just blindly guess a day 2-3 months from when we requested and you have a better shot at getting the date right.

Just please either get my withdrawal in my bank account or send me an expedited check in the mail immediately. The support has been horrendous throughout this and is causing me to consider taking my business elsewhere.
