Any players (ROW or US) playing at Buldog777? Do you have troubles to withdrawal large cashouts?
02-26-2013 , 01:13 PM
Is there agreement on which Merge skin has the fastest cashouts? I'd be interested in depositing to grind out the deposit bonus, but cashout speed would be a pretty important thing to consider. Any thoughts?

All Merge skins are extremely slow, among the slowest major networks in existence today. If cashout speed is an important factor to you, I would highly recommend playing elsewhere.

Thanks for that reply, that makes things easier for me.
02-26-2013 , 02:51 PM
So it seems the current check waiting time is about 1 month? Anyone receiving faster?
02-26-2013 , 03:12 PM
Some people got checks in 2.5-3 weeks recently bit it seems like after their most recent payout of the Carbon sites on Jan 28th, no more payouts have gone through so hopefully this is just a 1 time thing and they arent gonna head in the other direction
02-26-2013 , 06:35 PM
Damn so no one has received any payouts since Jan 28th? What do they only send payments once or twice a month?

Are you sure? Im talking about just the 3 Carbon sites, Carbon, aced, and the other one. I know sportsbook was approved in february but I dont recall seeing any of these 3 this month

Haven't gotten my monthly yet, and it should have gone out by now according to previous patterns.

Re: post above stating 1 month cashout time- my first check took way longer, at least 2 months. Now it was 1 per month but not looking good this month.

They haven't been raking much there lately since ptp transfers were stopped, makes me nervous.

hear that u.s. pros are getting fked..usually all my complaints spring them into action but all I'm getting now is the same canned response over and over
well guess what that lack of action isn't saving my car payment,car insurance, or rent

What?
02-27-2013 , 04:42 PM
figure of speech hear what he's saying things are so dismal now
02-27-2013 , 04:50 PM
I dunno about dismal. I got two separate checks in Jan, each after about two weeks from request. I put one in on the 10th this month but I'm not in panic mode because it's been 17 days. I'm just not sure why you two seem to be in a panic. Things seem pretty good right now for the old merge cashier system.
02-27-2013 , 05:23 PM
This is my longest wait and counting. I'm probably not going to play til I get processed.

Only 2 skins now. It was Carbon and it's two sister sites PDC and Aced. PDC was (forgive the pun) merged into Aced a couple months ago. So just Carbon and Aced.

It's a great idea as a US player to have at least a 6 month cushion of living expenses given how difficult payments can be in this market. Every major US network has had some form of payment processing hiccup since Black Friday.

It may also be a good idea to diversify your action over multiple networks in order to better facilitate cash-flow from multiple sources if your current operator isn't meeting your needs.

Hi guys. Well, every Visa card I try gets denied, so I started looking at the other option of WU/MG. I don't know why, but I feel very hesitant to wire money to a foreign country. Anyone else have these qualms?
02-27-2013 , 09:28 PM
Ive done WU multiple times and never have had an issue

Id say thousands of players have. It's a reality in the US market. No one has ever reported the funds being stolen from them. It's "legit."

Thanks Break and Kahn. I was thinking about it less from a theft perspective, and more from a personal liability perspective, e.g., some govt official comes calling and wondering why you're wiring money to a foreign country...

anyone know roughly how long moneybook has been taking for canada?

In light of the new "BIGMARCHPK Reload Bonus" at Carbon (not sure if there's one on all Merge skins -- I'm assuming there is), I'm thinking of reloading for the first time since I originally deposited 2 years ago.

Does anyone know of any Visa gift cards in the U.S. that seems to work for depositing there? (I'd really like to avoid the whole Western Union transfer option if possible.) I know the card would need to be ok for international purchases, but I also know a lot of them that say they will work don't actually end up working at poker sites. Is there a specific company/brand of Visa gift card that has worked for anyone lately?

I think greendot's work *IF* you get the real card, not the temporary one.
