Full Tilt bank wires - Page 2 - Internet Poker

So that if someone searches for the bank's name nothing poker related will show up, and yet as you stated the name of the bank is still obvious to anyone reading this thread. No banks want to be associated with online gambling.

I withdrew $2300 on 7/5 and it hit my account the next day on 7/6. It cost me only $17 too. Nice Full Tilt!

Anyone have any experience with TDBa*k or TDBa*nknorth? Would love to know about fees and intermediary fees.

so it looks like ive gotten F'ed the hardest ($57.78 in fees) and still no idea if im taking an RB hit aswell.

also looking at my bank account it does not say anything about charges on their side, so is it safe to assume its 100% from the intermediary?

I think with our banks the fee won't show up, it will just be taken right out of the deposit and you can assume they just kept it. Usually with wires there is a fee to receive them, yours seems a little high though, but not absurdly ridiculous.

I've noticed that a few people are being charged over $50 to withdraw from their FTP account due to an intermediary bank of some kind. I'm still waiting on a Premium Wire from 6/25 and FTP is yet to respond to any sort of emails to them.

Does anyone think that the intermediary bank is BS and really is FTP? They wont release any sort of information in regards to who processes withdraws. Its very unlikely but it makes me think that FTP could be skimming millions off of withdraws. Seems like an easy way to make a few million more every month. Maybe trying to make up for the money that was seized by the US Govt. Just a thought.

I am looking to cash some money out on Full Tilt since I can't seem to get anyone to buy it at a discount on this forum. That being said, did you need to set up a new account at your bank, or did you just use your standard checking account? Did Full Tilt bust your balls about needing ID or anything like that (I heard that takes a long time). I could fax them a copy of my Passport or whatever, not a problem. I need to do this tomorrow though because I am in Vegas on a COLD streak and in need of cash. I only have about $4500 left on me out here....that doesnt last very long in Vegas :-)

I use this bank. They don't charge fees for incoming wires. However I did get hit with an "intermediary bank fee" on two out of three wires. One for ~$35 and one for ~$50. The other one I received the full amount.

I have got many wires from other poker and sportsbook sites and this is not standard. This is only happening with FTP.

Why are you so happy to be paying these fees? Service is nothing to brag about. Its been two weeks since my approval and still nothing from FTP. If the fees are standard then fine. But this is the first time may people are seeing these fees. Maybe your the intermediary bank?

If you have an ING account don't try to withdraw money from FullTilt via a wire. I did this, and ING rejected the incoming wire. I emailed FullTilt and a week later they responded and assured me that after they verified that the wire didn't go through they would credit the money back to my FullTilt account. The money still hasn't been credited back to my account, and it's been almost a month since I originally requested the wire. I'm going to send another email to FullTilt's support in a week, but I don't know how much good it will do. I'm sure I'll get the money back eventually, but save yourself the trouble and don't try to wire money to an ING account.

go read the Stars wire thread, same thing

roommates have wired from UB for years, same thing

this is NOT the first time people are seeing these fees for wires, it is completely standard b/c the poker sites never ship the money directly from their original bank account. The money hits an intermediary w/out a doubt.
