My last two regular bank xfers have come in 5-7 business days. Seems like they are speeding up, but they lowered my withdrawal limit to $950. less than $1k a week? come on.....

hey has anyone using Chase Bank ever had any problems receiving bank wires/echecks from online poker sites? what about bank of america? im prob switching soon and those are the candidates

requested: 7/17
received: 7/21

they're caught up on the backlog.

Got it this morning, WOW!

Okay I definitely have a problem then, my bank wire has taken almost 20 days now... tilt is taking like 2 days to respond to my emails too, i'm getting a little worried.

Me too; almost feels safe and reliable again.

i guess ill ask this again....

what is the rakeback hit for a premium bank wire vs a regular bank transfer? i just got rakeback last week but i need my money by august 6th and id like to cashout on friday after my rakeback is recieved

also do they charge your ftp account for the premium wire or your bank?

prem wire=$75 hit, so $20.25

reg bank wire costs a couple bucks afaik

Premium bank wire

Withdraw/approved: 7-19
Received: 7-21
Fee: $17

Strange, i had no fee last time.

bank transfer
requested/approved 7/18
rec'd 7/21

initiated a bank wire (the 5-10k one) on 7/10, was approved 7/11 and the money was deposited back into my account tonight with no explanation from ftp. i've done a lot of these withdrawals since however long it's been in place and never had any issues so wasn't sure if it was a widespread thing or if i was an isolated incident.

i'm hoping that my bank (boa) didn't do anything drastic to cause me not to receive it and i guess i'll just try again?

Same as me...quicker then i expected.

wow, requested reg bank transfer 7/17, received it 7/21.

wp, ftp.

Requested Bank xfer 7/16, received it 7/22. Seems to be moving quickly.

Premium Wire:
Req: 07/20
App: instantly
Rec: 07/22

No fee's this time from the intermediary bank however I always get hit with a $10 fee a few days later from my bank.

Bank Transfer
appr 7/20
rec'd 7/22

stop wiring ppl save ur bux

req/approve 7/17, received 7/21

looks like $17 charge to MGR so $4.50 effective cost, not too bad for $1500

Does anyone know the hit to your MGR for Western Union? I have been using this a lot over the past few months while bank transfers were slow, but it seems that my rakeback has been hit heavily. Also is it confirmed that it is $17 for bank transfers?

Sick how quick they are getting, got this one yesterday sometime I guess, just checked my account and it was there.

The $950 limit is kind of cramping my style though

Transfer:

Requested 19th
Received 21st

Well its a daily limit so unless your making more than 30K/month you will get caught up eventually. I am using 3 bank accounts to keep the number of transactions down.

Requested 7/22/09 and received 7/23/09.....sick, good job full tilt!

requested and approved regular bank transfer 7/21
received this morning.. 7/23

ftp back in business..

There is a reason for the $950 limit. With all the bs poker players have had to deal with to get paid (your government tax dollars at work) the US treasury department has institued a new rule for bank transfers. Anything over $950 automatically will start to get flagged and looked at by UST. I also play on PS and they have not taken this kind of proactive approach unlike FT. Ft is trying to save their processors from going down to make sure we all get paid and don't face the problems we have before. So do a bank transfer and you will get it within 3-5days at no cost. I have done 3 withdrawls in the last 2 weeks and they have been quick and discreet. How do I know this?? Because I am an exec at a bank. Use bank transfers and make your life easy. Just some professional advice.
