As promised I will post all communications to Lock Poker about my WU withdrawal process:
"This is a follow-up regarding withdrawal requested on 9-17-2012.
Please advise as I have not had any responses or updates as of yet.
All the best!
James

(9/28/12) Hello James,
Thank you for your email.
Once a Western Union payout has been submitted, we will process this within around 7-14 business days. Once done, you will be sent a confirmation email that includes your Confirmation Number and Name of the Sender. Please take this, along with photo ID to your local Western Union branch and they will release the funds to you.
Kind regards,
Joey

Hello Joey,
Thank you for your prior response. As of today it has not been around 7-14 days but instead going over 19 days since WU withdrawal submittal. As a poker professional in the poker community I understand the need to have a good reputation within the poker community itself. As I am sure you already understand, prompt deposits and withdrawals can dramatically increase your business as well as delayed responses and withdrawals can dramatically decrease your reputation and future business standings.
Upon further research it appears your reputation for prompt and easy withdrawals from your site is already suffering somewhat. I sincerely hope my first withdrawal experience from Lock Poker will not contribute to this decline.
Please advise.
Thanks,
James

Dear James,
This email confirms our receipt of your payout request via Western Union for the amount of 2,000 USD at JDB Services for your Account ID Andar. We will review your request shortly and you will be notified by email when your payout has been processed.
You can cancel payout requests before they are authorized for processing, by logging into your account and accessing the cashier/banking center or by contacting Customer Services.
** Please ensure the address on file is correct, as an undeliverable payout or stop payment request will incur a $250 fee.
We thank you for your continued business and are always available if you should have any questions.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I have begun posting
all emails and communicated information on the public poker forums in order
to allow the public to decide for themselves whether or not your
establishment is a credible organization worthy of their trust. As for me,
getting canned responses that appear to follow a pattern of premeditated
procrastination on my first withdrawal request is suspicious to say the
least. Ultimately, your organization will thrive or not based on how you
treat your customers. The choice is yours but rest assured, the choice will
be a public one.

Thank you for your response. I am glad to say that I have collected the withdrawal via WU as per your processes. Even though the process was longer than anticipated or communicated via your team, the end result was a success. I believe this will go a long way to restoring trust for your customers that have come to doubt the quality of your organization. As such, I will continue to participate on this site and will consider playing higher stakes as well. I will also recommend the same to others on public poker forums.
Thanks again,
James
