do you use bofa? I noticed that I have 2 different routing numbers if I login online to check my account. One is for electronic transfers and another is for wires. At the advice of another poster i this thread I gave them the normal routing number and am hoping that will work.

The normal bank of america routing numbers will definitely not work. You need to use the wire routing number.

If anyone has any doubt over whether their routing number will work for wires you can go to http://www.fedwiredirectory.frb.org/search.cfm and type in your routing number and search.

Question....If i request a premium wire like once a week for appro $1,000-$1500, will TD bank get suspicious? I know this isnt a big amount of money each week but I was just wondering. Anyone have opinions about this?

From what I've read here and there, I heard the best way to do it is to do odd amounts like $1224.18, $1178.56 etc. I don't know if it's just an urban legend, but apparently, it makes it look more "legit" and payroll-like.

Please post the fees that TD Bank takes out and how long it took to process, if you have previous experience with them. Thank in advance!

Prodigy.

Ya I def request odd amounts so that it looks more like payroll. And ive done 3 from TD bank so far, each took about 3 business days, two of them had no fees, the last one had a $16 fee. I may request one for another grand in the next few days cause I built up a nice roll over the past week. Anyways, Ill keep ya posted.

premium wire, two days to hit, roughly $50 in fees ($10 from my bank) wamu / chase

I have TDBanknorth because I'm in New England. They happily sent me an e-mail saying they don't take any incoming wire fees, domestic or international. Hurrah!

The normal routing number DID work. 21 cents more than I cashed out for and as of yet there has been no fee from my bank and no rakeback hit....am sure it's all coming though

"Premium" Wire Transfer
Requested: Wednesday Morning 7/15
Approved: 5 Seconds Later
Received: Thursday End of Day 7/16

Amount was for $1220, received $1184.27 = close to $36 in fees!
RB Hit: -$5 and change.

TD Bank; PA/NJ area

The fees are WAAAY too high for me. I may give it another shot or two on my next cashouts since someone else who has TD have had success of having no fees. This was my first "Premium" Wire Transfer.

I just got mine, took a day and half.. $12.38 mgr hit, and $10 fee from bank. I hope this method stays around for awhile.

weird.. all i got charged was the $10 bank fee.. no other money missing from the wire, was actually 19c over

premium bank wire

cashout amout: 3000.00
requested: 7/18/09
approved: instantly
recieved: ?


i used my checking routing number, hope it works
will update when i recieve

still waiting on my wire that was approved on 7/12/09... starting to get worried.

Yes I received it $17 short than a $13 service fee from my bank

I'm fine with those fees if I can have my monies in my bank in 30 hours

Mine took 3 days. I was charged $12 from my bank and no rakeback hit. It's been about a week since I received the money

Im still waiting on a premium ffom june 18

Requested on 7/20 at 4 AM
Received this morning!!!!!!

I got an extra .15c..... no middle bank fees..... my bank charged $10..... don't know about rakeback hit yet

My wire was for the max, I'm American, and my bank is Kiti Bank

Request 7/20 Pending in my bank account right now.

Requested 10k, it's listed at 9950.37. I run bad bank wire fees.

recieved 7/21

OK... this is so ****ed. Don't have super exact dates/times, but I'm getting hit with different fees and whatnot even using the same wire option/amounts twice.

Dunno if we're blanking out bank names and such but whatever...

6/4 I use the "Bank Wire" option to take out $7500 to W*ch*v**, banks along the way take out $50, plus the $15 incoming domestic wire fee.

7/16 I use the "Premium Bank Wire" option to take out $5000 to the same bank, banks along the way take out $0 (I actually got 5000.02), plus the $15 incoming domestic wire fee.

7/21 I use the "Premium Bank Wire" option to take out $5000 to the same bank, banks along the way take out $17, plus the $15 incoming domestic wire fee.

So, 5 days apart, same withdrawal amount, same wire choice, and one has fees in the middle the other doesn't. WTF?

Also, around 7/18 I did a $2000 "Bank Wire" to a different bank, W*M* aka Ch*s*. Got hit for $50 along the way, plus $10 incoming domestic wire fee.

Additionally, I'm taking a MGR ding with all this... $80 or so this month on 3 wires.

I cashed out 4,400ish via bank wire on July 22nd. It is in my ING account this morning the 24th with no middleman fee, so apparently it was initiated within the USA. I have emailed my rakeback affiliate (rakebreak) to find out what the MGR deduction is; I will report back with their response.

I tried to make a cashout on 7/10, was approved 7/11 for a bank wire (of which I've done plenty since they were introduced) and this is the first problem I've had not sure if I should be worried. I use boa in nyc fwiw.

At least you got it back relatively painlessly.

This is because FTP uses "intermediary" banks before the wire hits your primary checking acct. According to them, they have no control over what the intermediary charges....so basically business as usual for FTP.

Approved 7/23
Received 7/24

But this time, on top of the $10 fee, I was hit for 16.95 off the original wire amount as well. This never happened before (Ch*se Bank) off multiple wires, should I just assume that this will be standard starting now or something?

edit: oh ok, so it was the intermediate that took this 16.95 off?
