Full Tilt bank wires - Page 19 - Internet Poker

Did one last week for about $3k. It took two days, and I was charged only a $12 fee. It does seem like the fees are hit or miss; in previous bank wires I've been charged more than $12.

Out of curiosity, why do you use Regular Bank Wire as opposed to Premium Bank Wire? Does anyone know what the difference is between them?

Did my 2nd withdraw via premium transfer last night. It's already posted in my account. WOW that was incredibly fast!! But, the fee's for a $260 transfer were $34. That seems really outrageous, but that's probably from my bank's end. I did one a couple weeks ago for $250 and it was only $10.

Anyone know why that is?

I only wanted to withdraw ~3600 each time. Since the Premium Bank Wire has a limit of $10k and the regular Bank Wire is a $5k limit (both with one per 5 or 7 days limit), I wanted to keep the Premium Bank Wire option open and available should I want to withdraw a larger chunk of my roll later in the week. The $ coming to me in 5 days or 7 days doesn't really make a difference to me.

Anyone ever tried to cash out to a New Zealand bank accout? Full Tilt says they are not doing bank transfers to NZL. It has to be possible, no?

$1035 w/d(3rd w/d-1st for $750 and 2nd for $800 and both with fees of $34)

Requested and Approved early in the AM on 11/26

Received: 12/1 early am

fees: this time, I only was charged with the usual incoming wire fee from my bank of $17.

This also happened to me, exactly the same details. Weird, it was the first one in over 5 of them that I was shorted.

There are no fees for checks. you have to remember that FT is not the one charging you for this service. It's your bank and the intermediary bank that is hitting you with these fees.

I went to my bank to see why the charge was $34 for a $260 withdraw. My bank charges $10, which I knew and am fine with, and they had no clue why either. I withdrew $250 the same method a couple of weeks before and there was no such additional charge. This is rediculous. 13% for a small amount to begin with?
