I'm certainly no crypto expert but from what I've gathered, I think people simply mean to go the route of site --> blockchain --> coinbase to avoid any problems. I've never heard of specifically not using coinbase as the last step. I wouldn't even know what else to do.

Using blockchain as a middle man is done because Coinbase doesn't like gaming transactions. I've heard of them not accepting transactions from internet gambling sites but haven't experienced it personally. Using Coinbase as the last step to get to your bank account is totally fine/will always work.

Yes, I am setting up blockchain wallet right now. A little confused, as there's an option right there with blockchain to deposit bitcoin directly to your bank account, but everyone seems to 1st send the bitcoin to coinbase and from there deposit it to their bank. Blockchain a little confusing as well, as it says you cant use your wallet id on another site to receive funds, but you 1st have to click "request," and then use the code... you get the picture. Actually, if someone could walk me through the exact process here (like specific information about what click on and what you copy and paste and where), I would really appreciate it. Or, probably someone as already done this, in which case a link to that would be great.

Sure!

Deposit:
-Deposit on Coinbase with your bank account.
-Get on Blockchain and select "request" (lower right).
-Copy your wallet address by tapping it - which will automatically copy it.
-Go back to Coinbase and go to 'accounts' and select 'BTC Wallet'
-Select the arrow top right of screen and put in the amount of USD you want to send to block chain and hit 'Next'
-Paste your blockchain address in and hit sent.
-Once the funds appear in your blockchain app (which should be pretty fast)
-On Carbon - go to deposit + enter the amount + add the 30% weekly bonus or whatever bonus you can, copy the bitcoin address on there and paste that in blockchain as the address you send to. Funds should be in there pretty much immediately.

Withdraw:
-Enter amount, paste in your blockchain address + enter your pin. Has been taking about 5 business days for most people.
-Go to Coinbase and copy your bitcoin address (accounts->BTC wallet-> the square thing next to the arrow top right).
-Go to blockchain -> send -> paste address + put in amount and you're all set..
-In coinbase, withdraw to your bank account.

Do not choose the option to deposit directly to your bank account. You will need to go through a verification process like you did with Coinbase. Just use the Blockchain wallet without options.

1st off, thank you so much man, you rock! The only question, is that the way you find your blockchain address, is that's what pops up when you click on "request," right? But, when withdrawing from Carbon, you don't have actually use the "request" tab on Blockchain, right? It's confusing also because on Blockchain, it says that the address changes for every transaction. I'm guessing that because of that, I also have to wait until the 1st transaction clears, until sending the next amount since I will have to use a different address.

No problem - yeah it's the one that pops up when you hit 'request' - you just copy and paste that into Carbon when you cash out. You have to wait until the previous cash out goes through to cash out regardless which sucks (so you can't have more than one pending). You can however cancel the pending cash out and then do one for more/less money.

Thank you to the moderator who removed the misinformation about no longer withdrawing from site to blockchain and then to coinbase. He was telling us to withdraw directly to coinbase and I had never seen that before but realize it was inaccurate now that it's been removed.

Thnx, man!

This thread has quite a few posts about site>>Electrum>>Visa BitPay card.

req bitcoin friday 8/10 and still waiting

Post #12021.

Req 8/12
Rec 8/17

Pretty flawless process

Same. Loaded on BitPay card.

Going to have to agree with you so many whiny posters complaining about waiting a week really guys? Oh no the horror I have to wait a week for my money the World is going to end. This is why it is hard to like gamblers, self seeking people who contribute nothing to society and I would say in general are not good human beings.

I request my money on 8-13 I will let you whiny cry babies know when I get approved or whatever.

Req 8/21 via btc, rec'd 8/28

Has anyone been banned from receiving bonuses? I tried to get a casino match bonus that they have on their site and I didn't get it. A chat says that my account has been excluded from receiving bonuses and it was a 'management decision.'

Hey. I can not log in since today. It shows "Your acc is disabled for security purposes". Does anybody have the same Problem? And does anyone know how / if I get my money? I hope I get it. :-(

Someone I back was banned from bonuses a little over a year ago. He actually "abused" their bonuses unknowingly in which he would receive funds and use them for poker when the rollover was incomplete.. so we came to a conclusion that Merge had actually been pretty lenient with him considering he benefited from a couple thousand in buyins without fully completing rollover.

That being said.. Merge is not very detailed about how their bonuses need to be released.

BTC max wd (2500)

Req 8/24
Rec 8/31

would you guys recommend I use blockchain for deposits or can I use CB directly? I know it has been recommended to use blockchain for withdrawals. thanks for your time and help

Always use a middle wallet between site and exchange for deposits and withdrawals. Accounts are closed weekly for direct deposits/withdrawals to/from gambling sites. Just today in another thread, a Visa Bitpay card was cancelled after it was determined a deposit was made to a gambling site.

max wd is now 2500 not 5000?

For many, yes.

thx. SAD

Requested cashout 8/31 and its still pending. **** me in my *******
