[Bodog] Bovada/Ignition payout thread for US players (DO NOT post bank names) - Page 803 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

In my past dealings with bovada I have gotten plenty of Bank Wires done as cash outs they are the way to go I promise. Never took longer than a week tops if that. I have done over 20 of them. The check method is quick to but your bank is going to try to screw over on fees for cashing it.

This seems backwards IME. Although many banks do charge fees for foreign checks, or use collections which carries a fee, players can easily find banks that charge no fees to deposit foreign checks. On the other hand, I don't believe there are any banks that don't charge fees for wires. And not only are there going to be wire fees, conversion fees will often be substantial as well. For example, players should not be surprised to many times pay $150 for a 3k wire when its all said and done, vs a free 3k check.

I'm really glad I came to this thread to see how withdrawals were going. My past two VFF went fine, so I planned to do another until I read the last few days of posts.

I haven't withdrawn for March yet, but I went to the cashier to see what my options are. VFF is my default, but it also offered me a check or bank wire with no fees. I'm crossing my fingers and requesting a check.

Thanks all, for keeping us up-to-date with withdrawal news.

Check by Courier $1300 processed today March 26th

Wonder if the check will get here before the other two...
Has anyone received 3k max VFF in past month?

UPDATE!!!!
Check has been received 4 days after processing
Still waiting on both VFFs. According to Bovada, they should be here in the next few days*

It's always "few days" or "rather sooner than later" at Bovada. But truth is it's taking incredible amount of time for VFF right now. I've been waiting for mine for 18 days still nothing.
I hope they fix it otherwise I don't really want to play there anymore. Deposits take seconds but taking money out is incredibly hard. 3k/week and every withdrawal takes a month.... Absurd...

P.S. I've also read that somebody experienced problems with chipped plastic cards. Could somebody explain?

I also heard something about Bovada being delayed since the Super Bowl.

I am regretting my Visa 'Fast' Funds cash out today. From the looks of this thread, could take over a month for funds to be distributed.

Should have taken the $50 charge for a check by mail.

I'm still waiting on VFFs from 3/1 and 3/22.

I don't understand though, isn't the fee $50 regardless if it's VFF or checks?

No. At least not for me.

Per March 28th email communication: "Your primary withdrawal method is Visa Fast Funds (VFF) wherein we'll credit the funds to your card ending in ****. You're only eligible to a one free VFF withdrawal request per calendar month. Should you choose to use Check by Courier, there will be a $50 processing fee regardless if it's just your first withdrawal for the month."

I had never done a VFF and after reading through this thread and the one on P5s I went ahead and bit the $50.00 bullet for the check on the 28th.

Pretty absurd they switch your "free withdrawal method" to one that doesn't appear to be working very well - which I know is putting it nicely for those caught up at the moment. But then again, Bovada does very little administratively that makes much sense.
