Which would you want them to do? Sometimes its in everyone's best interest to say nothing. I dont know if this is the case, but its something to think about.

I think a better response would be "We're currently changing processors, we expect to be able to pay you at x time." X being an accurate estimate, not a made up number or a "next batch" type response.

No way the following batch of withdrawals could have been paid if they were still changing payment processors. Right?

Here's another thing I don't get. I traded $2,000 for $1,500 to cash out some and the trade went really well. But when I posted the trade I got like 5 of the most reputable traders chomping at the bit to the deal with me and wanted to take more on. This means someone is able to cash out in a timely manner, or they at least know they are getting their money. I know the Euros have it decent but the guy I did it with was American.

in my opinion they are most likely not going to bring it back becuz that is the way everyone gets their money and they dont want to make it that easy. they will say its coming back soon but its gone forever

I think there are traders in the p2p thread that basically live off of moving funds. Who knows if they even play poker??

This has to be impossible no? If they are paying .75 on the dollar and can only receive the same cashout methods as we do, then they only make $500 off of the $2k trade. They would have to do 5+ cashouts/month to make anything decent, which is impossible with the cashout times.

Yeah i can definately see this being quite big business to some.. and indeed, get multiple accounts one way or another and you can cashout loads.

I never understood why US facing sites didn't take advantage of high volume traders. They ease US cashouts which are probably costly for a site. If done properly(no or very low play through requirements and very fast Non US cashouts) the market for funds would be 90%+.

In this case its part of our migration to our new cashier.

In other cases the cashier is setup to automatically take down an option thats currently offline. For example if the processor has a server crash or is performing maintenance.

i havent received mine as well. requested Nov. 11. About a month now. Tired of the copy and paste emails they send saying it's in the queue and will be processed in the upcoming batch. Too much BS with this site and their customer support. Can't wait for the day stars come back if they ever do.

Shane could you check into mine as well? I had messaged you about a week ago, but didnt get a response.

Thanks.

I think it's been around a week but not weeks from what i saw in posts here, in a situation like this time always seems different and always seems to have been longer than it really is

I could be wrong, though.. I don't use WU myself.

I was the first person to post asking if the option was gone and I posted on 11/28. So, if we assume that the 28th was actually the first day it was gone, it will have been gone for two weeks on Wednesday. Each response from support has been a lie. Until we hear from someone who has any idea at all what is happening, I guess it's safe to assume that it will be back when it's back, or it won't. We simply have no way of having any idea.

Merge is having issues of their own right now. Intertops is the place to be for U.S. players. They are on the same network as Lock just a different skin on the Revolution Network. They are the best option available for U.S. players b/c they have fastest payouts. You just have to get an invite to sign up a new account. They only take U.S. players by invite now. Guess they trying to fly under the radar. Just message me if you want to know more
