Nevermind, I ended up canceling my withdrawal and requesting a new withdrawal via cash at cage. It was approved within a few hours.

I'm on the michigan platform and they processed my Paypal withdrawal in about 30 hours. It did say they were going to give about a day for you to reverse the withdrawl after which they'll process it.

I just requested another withdrawal and disabled the ability to reverse it to see if they'll process it any faster, but it's already been 21 hours, so I guess not.

Also, they haven't asked me to upload any documents probably because everything is already verified through Paypal. You'll also need a bank account connected to Paypal in order for WSOP to process the withdrawl.

It's not really a big deal to me, but ya, pokerstars is almost instant and all the others are within a few hours like you said. Even sweepstakes poker sites process Paypal almost instantly.

Has anyone in PA figured out the RB rewards system yet? The website talks about APP and Tiers; however, there is nothing related in the app. I just see my 'Level' which is 54, and Caesar rewards, which I have 1060 of.

It appears that I did but I have no hints to help you. I had uninstalled the software from my computer a few months ago (maybe Dec or Jan?). I just tried reinstalling it today and now the spinning circle thing isn't there anymore.

Previous attempts to uninstall/reinstall did nothing to fix it. But waiting several months between the uninstall/reinstall somehow did the trick on my machine without having done anything else that should have made a difference (no factory reset or system restore or anything like that)

I always have lag on the site, especially when I try to check out hand history. It’s awful on my pc. It’s hard to have more than one table running and incredibly boring.

For anyone wondering about the DIY bonus - $1 in rake = 2 Wagering points

Below I will vent about how impossible it is to find that information incase anyone from WSOP reads this thread.

--

WSOP makes this information impossible to find for whatever reason. If you ask support they will just send you a template with this link:

https://www.wsop.com/legal/bonus-pol...hsPhiladelphia


8. An explanation as to how wagering points are accumulated can be found here.


The "here" is this link: https://www.wsop.com/caesars-rewards...hsPhiladelphia

From this link it only says that 1 tier point = 1 wagering point.

If you ask support about this they will just send the first link.

The only reference on the entire site on how to earn 1 wagering point is an expired DIY bonus from last August

How are people creating the emoji/word reactions to hands? (Tilt, hurry up, the laughing emoji, etc.) I'm not seeing anywhere to access this feature.

The rake back seems so bad AT WSOP PA, there is no tier system, and, seems to be like 10% RB maybe less. Does anyone have any info on how much RB you actually get and do you get anything worthwhile by linking your Caesar's card?

has anyone received a tax form or irs letter for CASH GAME WINS from any of the PA sites? (yes i know the tourney reporting is 5k and yes i know the player is supposed to report all wins etc on their own), just wondering if these sites report cash wins at all, either yearly or singularly, and what THAT threshold may be...

Have a huge issue regarding the security measures of mobile app.

Just got knocked out of the WSOP Event #2 30k Mystery Bounty due to my location magically saying I'm in Canada.

This is the second tournament this has happened in. Is there anyone other than the forms that can help?

I'm feeling like something shady is definitely going on.

Would also add that as soon as I have gotten knocked out in both tournaments, the app recognizes my location, and I'm able to resume play on the site.

My personal experience may not be the norm, but I'd avoid this site. The first time I played on it I scored a decent MTT cash and the troubles began. It took me over a week to withdraw any funds as they required me to send them many forms of ID including photos of DL, bank cards, bank statements. It was very stressful. Because of this I didn't use the site for a year or so.

Guess I forgot the pain. A while back I deposited again to play an MTT. Played MTT, lost, went to bed. Some time later I start getting spam calls from "Global Payments formerly ....". I don't answer unknowns. WSOP is having a tournament series, I log on again and try to deposit. I can't. Contact support, they tell me my ACH limit is 0 because my last deposit failed do to "insufficient funds". I call BS, look at my bank statements and during the period, the account never dips below $5000. The agent hangs up on me.

Realizing this may mess up my near perfect credit, I frantically call back. The next agent tells me the transaction did not fail for insufficient funds, but because my account was closed. This is false. My account was never closed (and is still active).

Anyway they charged me $35 for their failure to process a $100 transaction.

My advice is to use any of the other legal sites in PA. This one isn't worth the hassle.

Hi there. I work in the online casino industry (not for WSOP) and we use Global Payments for ACH transactions. WSOP did not take a fee from you. Global Payments did. As they are a third party, WSOP cannot control how they do business. In fact, WSOP got your deposit even if Global Payments did not, which is why they didn't lock your account and request repayment.

What you can do is call Global Payments (WSOP should be able to give you their end user phone number) and explain that you were never overdrawn and the account was not closed. If they made a mistake, you can work with them. They will waive fees. I have heard from players who said they got them to do that before, even in cases when it was their fault (banks will sometimes waive fees as a courtesy as you may know).

It behooves you to do so because if they feel they did not receive the funds (though they may have on a subsequent attempt, like trying to put a check through after it bounces once) then you owe it to them. And if you owe it to them, any time you try and use someone who uses Global Payments will find yourself blocked. Of course, once you either show them that they made a mistake, or if you are the one who did, settle with them, they will unblock you.

But WSOP had nothing to do with this, other than hiring Global Payments as their ACH partner - and they're pretty big so a lot of people use them. Almost all of the casinos I work for in the USA does and I deal with quite a few.

I can only guess why Global Payments did this. If you didn't play for a year, in that time maybe you have a new bank account, or maybe your bank is now using a new routing number. Maybe it was wrong from whenever you input it. We all make mistakes. So it could be your mistake without even knowing it. Honestly, that would be my guess.

But even if it's not your fault and it's all on them, they are the ones who would have to fix it. Not WSOP. And if they did make a mistake, they can make it right. But only they can tell you what happened. WSOP cannot because Global Payments doesn't ever violate privacy in that way. It's actually a good thing.

I called Global Payments twice when I understood the situation and described it in my rant.

The first call they told me the error code said insufficient funds, then hung up on me. The second time another rep told me it said my account was closed. I told them that wasn't true, that it was never closed. They didn't care. I asked how I know they won't charge me $35 again and again for there failures. They said they won't. The rep seemed to acknowledge my account wasn't closed, but they still charged me the fee.

I'm not really concerned about who's at fault. It would be cool if state politicians (or any) actually represented people / cared so they could possibly help with things like this.

It was the same bank account I've used successfully both ways many times. No changes. They charged me $35 because for whatever reason they failed to process a transaction. It's fine. I hate WSOP anyway. The software barely functions. Easy choise to use only Stars and MGM / Borgata.

Well you got terrible customer service but that reinforces your problem is not with WSOP, it is with Global Payments. If it were me I would call back and ask to speak with a supervisor. Also you can check with your bank about having the fee reversed. You can also ask WSOP and your bank to contact them on your behalf - sometimes merchants and other banks will get better support as you might expect.

Odd, that would be my biggest concern if I had a problem. Otherwise you argue with people who didn't take your money and don't have your money. Or you don't enlist them in helping you.

The PGCB is literally the government agency tasked with regulating online gaming in Pennsylvania.
Feel free to complain to them. Please do. Their website is here: https://gamingcontrolboard.pa.gov

Let us know how it goes.

As for the other casinos you prefer...

There are no fees to use Instant Bank Transfer. Customers may, however, be charged NSF (non-sufficient funds) fees by their bank depending on their bank service plan and account terms


BetMGM
So no matter which place you play online, they all use different third party companies for ACH processing and any of them can cause the same issues as Global Payments did.
