morganti, no one is "forced" to play with the money in their FTP account. The only situation where this might be true is if someone is closing their account completely, and then suddenly has $50 more in their account. Lets keep this thread on track--there is no shadyness. You sound ridiculous. If you really thought about your question a bit, I'm sure you could come up with a ton of legitimate reasons why ftp would not just add $50 to the wire total instead, like it's probably a huge hassle compared to just pressing a button and adding $50 to your ftp account.

calm down???? i know ill get my money. the thing is i should have gotten the money a month ago! everyone else is getting theirs in 2 days. so why is it the processor's fault? they need to go ahead and send me what they owe me and then THEY can wait for the whatever the processor has to say. i shouldnt have to wait this long. and why the hell would i want the money back in my full tilt account? lol you say that like its ok if that happens which it probably will since its not in my bank acct. so what do i do then? request a check that will take another month to get to me and probably bounce when i cash it? never again will i do anything on full tilt, what a garbage site. it has some of the tightest players on the net anyway. and no, still not any information from the processor. processed jan 6th, feb 9th and still nothing, i dont understand how this is blamed on the processor when everyone is getting paid, cashing out a month after me and getting their money before me. why cant they use whatever processor theyre using for everyone else and send me the money???

When/Why did they change the min for Premium to 2500 bucks?

So I did a premium wire withdrawal for ~$900 and only ~$850.xx showed up in my account. And no my bank does not charge fees for incoming wires. I called them to confirm. Anyone experienced this? I feel totally cheated.

standard read the thread/there's a warning when you cash out, u must not have paid attention

thanks for the super helpful reply. i read the warning, it said they charge no fee for premium wire but my bank might. Well, my bank doesn't. But I was charged a fee. I read somewhere that intermediary banks might charge fees but I was never warned about intermediary banks.

on my wire option it says 8k max but after I click it, it says 999 max

seriously ... wtf

There's not really anything we can say to be helpful...it's a way of life with bank wires

doesnt anyone else wires say 999 max when ur on the page where u enter amount. Mine still says 250 min btw.

Min 2500/Max My Current Balance

thats strange. I guess I'd rather have 999max than 2500 min seeing i usually wd a little over 1k

ooops 999 was my acct bal

The limits are the same as always for me. Someone else reported weird changes in the Bank Xfer thread also.

Those for whom it's changed, you might want to double-check in the morning, then email the cashier if it's still different for you.

I agree.

I disagree. Forcing you to have the money on FTP and use it is absolutely the reason they do it. They are forcing you to play with it, because if you clear out your account, and then they put $50 more into it, and then you try to wire out that $50, you'll lose it all in fees. Thus, you have to use it. FTP knows this, they could easily just add the $50 into the wire they are already in the middle of converting for you, but they don't. It's been discussed a bunch in this thread, and most everyone agrees that you are wrong and morganti is correct.

req/app: 2/1

today is the 8th business day. So does that mean I will have to go the route of sending my bank statement to ftp to show them I didnt get it.

sucks to pay extra fees and not even get the money remotely quick.

Anyone here filling as a poker pro and set up a corporation or LLC for tax purposes? If so, will Full Tilt send you a wire to your incorporated name?

Please keep us updated on this.

Can anyone explain the difference between "Bank Wire," "Premium Bank Wire," and "Bank Transfer"? Full Tilt offers all 3 options to me but fail miserably at explaining the difference of each. Probably too tough of a question for their support to handle...
