I have just cashed out my entire balance from PokerStarts via paper check. I tried an e-check, but it didn't work. then I tried paper check and it did.

Per the pokercast announcement, cashouts are possible now from PS from the USA right now.

Email from PS:

just tried it and worked via e-check. hopefully not another case of black friday indefinite pending cashouts

What did you do with your FPP's???? How come Pokerstars has not released a statement about this??? I call BS

Just requested a cashout VIA Direct Bank Wire..

weird, doesn't have enough spaces for me to put in bank account number

I tried to do this but it said I needed over 50k withdrawl to do it, which sucks since I've always withdrawn via wire. But I just settled for a check.

why aren't you guys doing e-check? isnt that better b/c no chance of a bounced check?

the echeck worked for me

I cannot purchase bonuses with my FPPs!!!!!!

I just tried and it let me go through with a paper check, but I held off hoping to here about FPP's.

Im curious about this as well. I have 150K FPP's that I was saving for a store sale. Surely they will let players use them. It would make sense to do something before the end of the month and players lose there VIP status. Well then again they may be waiting so people will only be able to spend them at the min rate.

That is for the Wire Transfer, not the Direct Bank Wire

Anyone else having issues with the "Direct Bank Transfer" option? It won't let you enter more than 9 digits for your Bank Account number, and all accounts are at least 10 digits. WTF???

I snap cashed out via bank transfer the second it was available,
Will post when it hits my bank. Ftp should take lessons from stars on how to handle things.

My account # is 9 digits

this. I just put in my first 9 digits with a small test withdrawal and I'll see what happens.

once again let us take this opportunity to LOL FTP

+1. Eff them.

Gonna be funny when my Stars cash out beats my Bodog cashout.

Thanks Stars, you guys were the best.
