I received a similar response regarding a check cashout that I never received.... nearly a year ago.

For US residents, are these considered Foreign or Domestic wires?

requested 5/6
approved 5/6

will update when received

Hey guys, when I cash out money it takes a hit on my MGR, right? How about when I deposit?

yes and yes

do you know how much for a deposit?

Received May 10 with $47.78 in fees + $10 bank fee

At what point in the process was the wire rejected? By FT, or by the bank in question?

nope sorry

Two Concerns:

1.) I just cashed out on FTP for the first time. I tried the premium bank wire service. I just noticed the info mentions only applicable for "checking" accounts. When you actually go through the procedure of cashing out this way though, you can choose "checking" or "savings". I wired to savings on Wednesday night 05/05 and haven't received any update or email. Is it because of savings or because it's my first withdrawal that it is taking time? Maybe it just takes this long typically?

2.) I also want to be able to just have a check issued to me but I have no option for that in "Cashier". I funded my account with p2p transfer. Do I have to make a deposit to be able to use the check format cashout?

bugged out.

It was rejected by the receiving bank after FTP had approved the transaction and sent it to the processor. It looks like this is directly related to the link posted earlier in this thread where some jackass spilled the beans to a compliance officer who asked about some of his transactions. The bank started rejectng all poker transactions shortly thereafter.

How many banks do we have to lose before people learn to keep their ****ing mouths shut? This was a big loss!

yeah it's kind of lame because full tilt won't tell you, and my affiliate never responds to anything, so oh well.

so if the unmentionable bank wont accept wires, are we going to have problems cashing a physical check there?

FWIW I did the same exact thing and my wire went through to my savings account without any problems. This was a few weeks ago so it is possible to send them to a savings account.

Also if you have only funded your account with a player transfer then you have to play a certain amount of hands before you can cash out. And don't be surprised if they close down your account until you send in documents verifying your account.

Thanks for the info. That's good to know that yours was accepted.

I've played about 2k sngs, 100 mtts, and probably 25k hands on ftp. I hope they don't freeze my account. My bank account info matches account info and everything. Think it will be alright?

if you have never submitted any documentation (passport/drivers liscense, ulitlity bill/bank statement) then you will have to do this before the cashout goes through.

Unlikely. Always deposit through the ATM.

I've never had problems with my bank.

That is simply not true with Fulltilt. I have cashed out multiple times and have yet to ever be asked that. I know I am also not the only one.

Yeah...I was hoping I wouldn't have to submit any ID since the bank account name matches the FTP account name and all. I understand I'd have to prove ID to be issued a check. Is this right?

You probably know there are fees but I want to let you know they can be extremely steep. Not sure if you've used Premium Transfer yet but I remember withdrawing $900 one time and got charged around $35 in fees from some middle man bank that Fulltilt wouldn't disclose to me.

ifucallumuck, I know that you mean well but please don't mention names of banks. Even the abbreviation that you typed is a bit dicey, as it is a well-known abbreviation of the institution. Our political adversaries are known to monitor these boards.

I am aware of this. Thanks for making sure. I'm just cashing $550. Willing to eat a little bit because I need these bucks pretty badly.

Hi guys. It's 05/13. My money went through. I don't know why I never got an email for confirmation or clearance. Kind of aggro about this, especially since it was my first withdrawal

. I'll probably try and never do this method (premium bank wire) again because the fees mounted up to $50. My withdrawal was just $550. 10 ****ing percent is not really alright.

Thanks for your help and insight, guys.

Wow, that's insane. Pretty BS that Tilt doesn't disclose which banks they use. Howard probably has his fingers in it somehow.

Bank transfers (e-checks) are really fast and have no fees. Way better for <$1k withdrawals if you have the option available.
