[Bodog] Bovada/Ignition payout thread for US players (DO NOT post bank names) - Page 551 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

i think for western union to work you would need to have the western union debit card. I got that it because i use to send alot of money to a family member in prison. So i racked up alot of points and earn rewardds with cash back but they only way i could get it is through the western union rewards debit card.

Haven't posted here since Bovada checks/Moneygrams became so quick and reliable, BUT: I'm still waiting on a Rapid Transfer requested on 7/26. In the past, I've always received rapid transfer Moneygrams less than 24 hours after request.

Anyone else having rapid transfer issues?

Minimum wire is what, 3k?

Also, earlier in thread some people said they don't do wires with tank of asparagus.

Anyone have experience with Bells Largo wire?

Looks from the tracking that its coming from up North.

received 7/29
deposited at big red/white/blue
They asked questions told them for some graphical online work for a company in Canada. They tried to deposit it but then computer said it had to be sent to collections.

Its too bad i cant request the check to come from the east that way i could just ATM deposit it.

they ended up calling the bank on the check trying to verify it wasting about an hour of my time
at least 5 times i mentioned it's candian so the routing number is only 8 digits

finally some guy gets back from break and sees 3 tellers at one computer, asks what the problem is and when they tell him he takes the check, enters it into the system and it goes through fine

they ask him what he did and he entered a dash after the 4th number

so if any of you have the same problems make sure they enter the dash

This FTW. Same thing happened to me a few months ago. Same green bank.

I cashed a check at Bells Largo and got my account closed due to "suspicious activity", had one check bounce prior to this one at the same bank but tried again and was asked to take my business elsewhere. I 've heard great success with Mitty Mank.

Is it just me, or is the frequency which people are having issues with accounts going up?

I've done about the same number of checks with over the last 9 months or so, and no issues. It probably depends on a lot of other factors. A new account that isn't doing anything except cashing foreign checks (or depositing and soon withdrawing/using the money) is probably more likely to be closed for being "suspicious" than one that's been giving them business for years and has been in good standing. Just a risk/reward thing.

Edit: The bounced check obviously didn't help things, either.

What do you suggest instead of lying? I've asked this question before and the most common answer is, just tell them it's none of your business, or deposit in the ATM. Well, for the latter, my ATM won't let me deposit a foreign check. As for the former, it would be very weird/rude for me to tell the teller nothing about my check. Whether they can or not, they always ask about stuff. I can't be like, just deposit it lady, see ya later.

i suck at rhyming so not sure what bank that would be.

What do you mean by direct deposit? I have a check from work I can open a new bank account with, does anyone know of a bank you can deposit checks like these in the ATM?

If questioned, it is a bad idea not to lie if you value your bank account and want them to accept your check.

The last sentence about the government is just plain silliness.

I mean it's partly true about the government doing ****ed up ****, but yeah in this case it makes sense to tell a white lie to get your check deposited. I wouldn't worry about it coming back to bite you in the ass.

Deposited max check 6/13
Cleared 7/25

Annoying to have it go through collections but I got the money so that's what counts

If they say they can't cash your check, time to find a new bank. I don't want to bank with anyone who is asking me personal questions anyway.

If you're a socially awkward 20 something acting like this is the first check you've ever seen in your life it likely won't work very well and the employee and/or manager will probably try to bully you.

Would you think it's silly for our government to freeze all your assets? All a bank has to do is inform them that you are making very questionable transactions and next thing you know they are ****ing with you. Our government will do whatever the **** they want which is a travesty. But it happens all the time. No one seems to be concerned with consequences is my point. I am concerned which is why I'm looking for ways to cash out without fear. If it can't happen, that's fine. I choose to live in this country.

I requested a max request Sunday evening, the 27th, and received it Tuesday morning, the 29th.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

So I have received many checks from Asia that have worked fine with my bank and the funds were in my account overnight. however i recently received a check from the eskimos up north that has caused some problems with my bank. bank says they have to send off to collections this time and could take 4-6 weeks to get my money.
has anyone else experienced this delay and does it really take that long or could i get my money sooner?
