On line Cashouts

I hadn't cashed out in a while (mostly due to not playing poker). I withdrew from Stars to my moneybookers account. What I deposited to stars was instant. It now seems the excess over what I deposited now needs to be reviewed and according to support within 72 hours it should show up if it's approved. To neteller everything was instant (pretty much). Is this a new policy?

Also Party poker has a new fee structure for withdrawls and moneybookers withdrawls now get hit with a $1 fee. I don't care that it's there but when there web site says no fee and you go to withdrawl and there's a fee that's not right. I questioned support over it and they said to bad, it's an outdated link the fees are in the withdrawl page in the cashier.

I guess they don't have to inform their customers about shit since the attitude is if you want to play, then you play by our rules even if we change them on you without informing you.

It's not the money but the attitude I got from support when I contacted them. Basically it's these are the rules to bad.

    Stars has always done this. They say 72 hours but in reality it's usually only at most couple of hours for approval.
  • The $1 fee is returned when it goes through. At least mine was from Party on a direct bank withdrawal.
  • Hey Joe,

    How's Moneybookers been? I'm wondering if I can open an account through them and fund my initial deposit through a stars withdrawal (I don't want to have to wire money because I'm lazy). Of course Stars "says" to withdraw you need to have made a deposit first (via Moneybookers), but since I can't withdraw via Neteller anymore, I assume they'll make an exception. Thoughts?

    Scoob, I tried to do exactly what your doing, fund a new Moneybookers account from my Stars surplus. Stars wouldn't let me even after a couple of emails.. However it looks like UB allows withdrawal to MB without depositing first. I did a test $50. withrawal and it shows as being approved. (as of 9am this morning.) haven't seen it show up on MB as yet.
  • hey scooby, I 've been using MB for a while and it's great.
    I funded from Supreme (webdollar) without a deposit via MB so if you are on a site that uses it (I think Sun does) then there should be No prob.

    If you want to use my referal code just PM me.
  • how come you dont just cash it out right to your house , i thought pokersites can do that just click cashout ansd they will send it to your house or is pokerstars the only site that does that ??

    Ya, cashing out isn't the issue (as I'm pretty sure I'd just request a cheque from Stars). The issue is funding a new e-wallet (Moneybookers) without getting dinged for a bank wire.

    You mean PS will send a Brinks truck to your house with your cash? :)

    LOL, actually what a lot of us are trying to do is use an intermediary (like Neteller was) so that we can move $$$ from site to site to take advantage of bonus offers etc...
  • It's 48 hours later and still no money from stars (outside of the initial money). Stars was never an issue before but apparently is now. It's really going to make me wanna play there.
  • stars is brutal u shouldent play there its terribble
  • stars is brutal u shouldent play there its terribble

    Why would you say Stars is terrible? One of the few places left with loose players. As for cashouts from UB to MoneyBookers only took about 24 hours for a test $50. I then did a $10. test deposit to Stars but haven't been able to do a test withdrawal as Stars says you can't withdraw until at least 48 hrs after your last deposit. Will update here as to result of that.

    Doom switch is ON obviously.

    Ok, just did a $10. test withdrawal from Pokerstars back to my Moneybookers account. As fast as I could logon to Moneybookers the $10 was there. No fees or delay. Looks like a winner.
  • So, Moneybookers getting a thumbs-up from the forum regulars? I really miss being able to move money around easily.

    Does anyone know if InterCasino supports Moneybookers? i'd like to get back to some BJ whoring.
  • Ok so does Moneybookers charge you to put money into a poker site or is it free. I really want to transfer some funds but im still undecided what i should do.
  • Transfers either way between Moneybookers and poker sites are free. There is a small fee for transfers between 2 Moneybooker accounts.
  • Thanks Compuease after looking through these forums i found a link that was usefull

  • Moneybookers - I just made a small deposit to Moneybookers on Visa and then transfered $25 to one of the sites I play at to establish a relationship then you can withdraw as much as you want back to Moneybookers to get it started up and funded. Withdrawls are also relatively easy from Moneybookers.

    So far Moneybookers seems decent similar to Neteller.
  • moneybookers ftw, thx guys!
  • Just opened up a moneybookers account....so this works just like the old firepay or netteller?

    anyone try the "usemybank" feature on stars? I'm kinda anal giving my online banking info for this feature.

    Si. I used Neteller before and Moneybookers since "the incident" and see no difference, except that cashouts are slightly more expensive with MB. There are no fees to moving money around between rooms though and the majority of rooms now accept MB.
