how can you say that they have made it from 2/12 to 2/16 in 2 1/2 weeks

maybe in May sometime they can try to hit the last week of feb or will that be in the June lies

This really all boils down to how processing truly works. And since 99.9% of the people in this thread do not understand that, it makes discussion of it rather a waste of time. Before anyone asks, I will not be discussing how it works, sorry.

Once again, I'll put my neck and reputation on the line here:

Things will improve and we will see the better end of cashout times restored (It won't be overnight).

Waiting for a check since 2-27. I feel as if either they are having a solvency issue or are purposefully slow paying players to deter pros from playing on the site. I have heard that other U.S. Players who bet sports a lot have much better cashout options with higher limits but they insist my only option is to cashout via check 2500 at a time. If they are intentionally making it incredibly hard to cashout to deter pros from playing it is working quite well.

Why is Bovada able to get payments out expediently as well as winning network but Carbon can't? Did Carbon reduce cashout options? Why not enable player to player transfers? Kanatronster starting to sound a lot like shane.

Wow grats on the cashout looks like we are all still few months away haha


Hmm payment says it was issued lol but idk how long an electonric transfer takes place my guess is not a month.

My fellow grinder Young Thug recently received the first of a string of backlogged checks, FWIW. (even wrote a song about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAzz...youtu.be&t=22s)

Hmm that seems like more than the $2500 Max Check lol he must have gotten all of our monies haha

Until they have fast withdraw I'm not gonna deposit anymore money in there and it seem kinda dead on Friday afternoon that not alot table play on seem like ppl figure out that they don't want to wait for long withdraw and move on to other site for fast withdraw

Also 3-5 week for withdraw would not buy either why would we wait for 3-5 week for withdraw but got money take off the bank instantly that so fucckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk up

They should enable player transfers so people can sell of their balances at VIG to people that are confident that the cashouts are going to improve in the near future.

This would make everyone happy

Instead transfer just let us with the fast cashout instead waiting for 10 week for a check

You should be good if the teller says that. I went to 2 different branches and both wanted to send it to collections. They know what they are doing. My friend uses the same bank and doesnt have any issues

I have a few theories

Bovada has been around since the 1990s and may do all of their own processing??? When you have been in the game for that long it makes things easier IMO

As far as reducing cashout options it appears some have been taken away by posts in this thread. ( MY WU is gone)

As far as P2P are concerned , someone mentioned merge may have switched licences around the time all of the poker skins were leaving and they cannot allow them now? This could be total horse**** but it made sense. Bovada don't allow them either.

Im pretty sure everyone announcing itt that they are using western union to obtain gambling money didn't help the situation. I was banned in 2010 from using western union because I picked up too many" gambling wins" So im 100% sure w/u is on to the sites using them to move money around which could be why the option was removed. Just a thought.

allow american players one $2500 check every 2 weeks and i'll have "carbon poker" tattooed on my chest

Bank clear the check at 4 in the morning feel so good know that it not bounce around lol

Just because they released the funds to you that fast does not mean the check will not bounce. Just means they think you will be able to cover it if it does bounce. The bank wont know if the check clears for 5-10 business days. So, feel safe after 10 business days have gone by not because they released the funds to your account

+1 exactly this. I worked at a major bank for years and no checks clear that fast.

Bovada has 1000's of different processor accounts.

I think USA can feel safe as long as RoW continues getting paid out. This week will be interesting, as the second wave of Skrill payments are due on Tuesday.

How is the above a positive sign? Looks like they are trying to make it even harder to cash out.

The only sites that I recall that have not payed back players were Ultimate Bet and Lock Poker. Those sites (plus Full Tilt) did not segregate player deposits from operating expenses. That money was stolen. It wasn't a Ponzi scheme. Those sites eventually could not pay, so THAT is when I'll start to worry: when players stop getting paid. The RATE at which players get paid does not worry me in terms of IF I'll get paid.

There's no way anyone from the outside is going to know for sure one way or another if a company is stealing. Ultimate Bet and Lock Poker ALWAYS gave me a bad vibe and I stayed away from them. I also had some bad feelings about Full Tilt even though I played there but I got lucky and got my money back all the same.

Although it is irritating to me that they have slow cashouts. I actually view it as a GOOD thing. To me, I take that to mean they are making sure that they can pay players out and get it right the first time. When the heat is on for one payment method or processor, they do their due diligence and fix it. That takes time. I could be completely wrong and it's due to being understaffed or being less competent than other sites or just lack of effort but that's MY feeling. Carbon also has a solid, good, long reputation. Lock Poker was a very new site that NEVER established a good reputation and Ultimate Bet had the Super-User cheating scandal which should have been everyone's cue to get the hell out of there.

I just don't equate cashout times to not being solvent. The two aren't necessarily related. I have had plenty of money in my bank and had trouble depositing it. It doesn't mean I didn't have the money. And, by the same token, a site like Bovada that pays out quickly could have problems behind the scenes no one knows about, too. Again, we just don't know.

Unless you know how many checks are being processed, the backlog, and rate of withdrawals, I don't think you can make a blanket statement about improvements one way or another. If they process enough, one day might be enough. If they don't process enough, 7 days a week might not be enough.

HOW ABOUT A GOOD OLD SEE HOW LONG THIS ONE TAKES.

4/12/15: REQUESTED $1750 CHECK WITHDRAW ON CARBON
4/25/15: STILL PENDING

I AM NOT PLAYING OR DEPOSITING ANY MONEY UNTIL THIS **** CLEARS

I DON'T KNOW DOES IT BOTHER YOU? HAHA, YA I KNOW THERE ARE. I ENJOY SEEING THESE TYPES OF UPDATES FROM OTHER PEOPLE THE MOST, SO I THOUGHT I WOULD THROW MINE IN THERE.
