why can't we post bank names?

There is no need. That is irrelevant information that could just pop up on some search engine perhaps drawing one more set of prying eyes to our thread.

You never heard of fight club?

Banks want nothing to do with dealing with gambling transactions.

I understand the 2nd part of your point, but not the first. My need is I want to know what banks will take VFF. My current bank will not so I need to know which bank to go down to open up a new account.

a million people have said this but you are doing nothing wrong playing poker online and getting a payout.

us banks can get in trouble for processing a check from a poker site. bovada spends a lot of money on processors to make sure banks dont get in trouble.

if you post bank names your post will get edited/deleted. because if you keep posting bank names then the bank will no longer be able to pay us.

i don't understand it completely either. just the rules. pm people for appropriate banks to use is okay but no posting.

I just had a little conversation with someone there about this and they told it doesn't have anything to do with what bank the card is from but the card itself, or something like that.

What happened to me was I had a debit card expire (from bank that rhymes with Face) that was working for VFFs. Bank sent me a new debit card (with a ****ing chip embedded in it) and Bovada told me I would have to make a deposit with it for it to be VFF eligible even though it had the same number on the card. I made a small deposit, requested a VFF cashout and they switched it to a check. Called 'em and all they would tell me is this card will not be able to get VFFs.

Doesn't really make much sense, but it seems to me they are trying to steer people away from VFFs for some reason. I did specifically ask them if they could tell me a bank a Visa card would work from, and they said no.

I literally said the opposite of that.

lol at skank of erica.

if u mean bee oh ay, then yes it should, i have used mine many times successfully for vff.

just cash the check at a bank that doesnt require sending it to collections. "major money center banks" like bee oh ay, chayyysse, citeebaanc, etc. should all have the money available for u right away or next day, no collections.

i have used my beee ohh aye visa debit card (with a chip in it) for vff successfully many times.

Today is the 7th business day. You aren't even at the stated average yet, much less to the point where you should be worried.

It depends. They might be less likely to send it to collections, but if you just opened an account yesterday with $50, and try to deposit (or worse, try to cash) a $3000 check, they're probably not giving you the $3000 until they have it.

thx for the info. keep us posted, many are wondering whether the Adn--o card withdrawal delays have now been fixed.

good point.

as i understand it though, these types of banks are able to acquire funds faster than, and do not require sending to collections as much as, smaller banks, like pee en cee for example.

in any case, one can take their check into their bank and say to the teller, "i want to deposit this check into my account, IF funds will be available in a timely manner and not sent to collections. Please tell me when the funds will be available before you proceed with this deposit."

i did this with a canaaddian check at pee en cee and they said they would have to send to collections, despite me being a long time account holder. so i said "No ty, I will take it elsewhere."

then i went to bee oh ay, where i also was a long time account holder, and they said funds would be available next morning. i deposited check, and they were.

This may or may not be necessary. When I deposited a check with a local credit union, they had to disclose to me that they were sending it to collections, and there would be a fee, and I had to sign something. Just refuse to sign and take the check elsewhere.
