Full Tilt bank wires - Page 5 - Internet Poker

Does anyone know what the difference is between Premium Bank Wire and Just Bank wire (not bank transfer)? Premium u withdraw from 250 to 5k, bank wire is 1,5k to 10k. What if Im looking to withdraw 2k?

I understand bank wire is suppose to be faster, but is there a bigger hit on fees?

premiums are generally faster, even though the time frame they give u is longer...look through the thread u see a lot of premium wires in 24hrs.

Out of curiosity (I am not living in the US), is it standard for a bank in the US to charge a fee when u receive a wire transfer to ur bank account ?

I obviously don't know for sure and never use premium wire, but I would think that FT makes an effort not to use the same bank every cashout. If you request a withdrawal via the same method 3-4 times in a row, the reasons are probably obvious why the fees/name of the check/bank xfer memo are always never the same two times in a row.

And while FT claims they don't control it, they probably do, but we probably want it that way as things currently are.

Requested 7/23
received 7/26 (pending credit on a sunday night)

No Fees yet, unless I have an unknown rakeback hit, which I wouldnt find out about since I played that day and i couldnt tell the difference in rakeback

Request 7/26
Approved INSTANTLY
Received 7/28

I've yet to notice any fees taken from the cash out as well. Do they come up like a day or so later, or if I don't see them now should I assume no fee? I did an odd number like someone suggested, so maybe that helped?

can someone please confirm that, when you go to do a bank wire for an account you've used in the past, only the last 4 digits of the Routing Number are shown? 98% sure this is true, but it doesn't have xxxx before the last 4 like it does for the Account Number, it just shows a 4 digit number

don't need to change anything if it went through successfully last time?

TY

I am in the same boat. Has anyone had this issue? I was told my FT that they have scalated my issue to the bank processor. Did anyone else have to do this? And if so, what was the result. I'm worried cuz mine was approved in June and I still haven't seen it hit my bank yet.

tried the premium wire this time instead of the other one and it went through without a hitch. i think my bank may have changed routing numbers or something
