Here's the thing... the check didn't bounce. It was deemed counterfeit.. like a fake check. I'm sure other banks might have accepted it as I'm guessing if they ran it through, the money would have been there. I think counterfeit means more along the lines like if a check says it will have a water mark or something and it doesn't. It was a weird looking check as the back had you sign it in the very middle.. never seen that before.

I have the debit card. There are fees out the ass on it. 50 cents for every purchase. I just used it on a big purchase so i wouldn't be wasting money. Also if you lose it/gets stolen you could be in trouble because the card says "Ecom Trustee" on it as your name. So it's not even possible to check for ID as there is no name on it so anybody can use it. Other then that it is pretty cool.

what are the fees?
what are the withdrawl maxes?
do you have to enter your ss# to activate it?

Just completed the first Rapid Transfer. Requested Friday, received info on the following Friday. One thing to do when you find a location for the initial deposit and subsequent payouts is to find out about limits. The place where I deposited had a 2k limit, the second closest place had 1k and a local bank finally made good on a 2500 withdrawal (US Bank, not sure if all locations handle MG or not). 2.5k was also the limit at the bank so that coincides with Bodog's 2.5k limit per day. Probably just going to open an account there so I don't have to feel like a criminal under the questions from the teller.

Also, the first two locations were asking for more info than I had been provided with; such as sender name. It seems bizarre to say I don't know who sent me this money; only the number and it seems worse to tell the clerk its none of their damn business (altho its NOTDB). The bank processed the transaction with only the reference # and ID though they also needed a social so be aware.

Nevertheless, I walked with 25 crisp bens just in time for the weekend.

The more we talk about this card the quicker this payout option is going to be unavailable.

STOP POSTING SO SPECIFICALLY ABOUT DEPOSIT/WITHDRAWAL OPTIONS

yea ?????????????? stop posting about that in this thread

I wouldn't be worried about bodog having financial problems. All Neteller withdrawals to free countries go through within 24 hours or less in my experience. You guys are only having problems because your government has made it so f**king hard. They are likely having trouble trying to find reliable cheque-processors quicker than they get shut down.

Don't mention company names.

The correct answer.

You don't think that if someone was looking to bust the companies they couldn't just put money on bodog and cash out themselves?

The more times a business is mentioned to be in relations with a gaming site, there will be more pressure for them to cut ties with the site.

so I'm looking to withdraw my whole roll ~1200...anything that much better than a check that would be worth making a min deposit?

I would recommend the $200 minimum deposit (Bodog covers fees) by Rapid Transfer (Moneygram). It would probably save you about 2 weeks of waiting for your check, and I have found that if you can find a Moneygram service within a bank, they have enough cash for the payout and transaction goes through smoothly.

Does Bodog charge teh $20 fee if you w/d more than once a month if you use one of these methods?

Just a guess, but the poker site with the best customer service may be more than happy to give you an answer.

Yes

I thought everyone might enjoy my latest email from bodog when asking about a payout. Happy Greek Orthodox Easter!
