I requested mine on May 27th and no money and no answers from Full Tilt. There attitude is ....you will get it, when you get and just deal with it. |

Yup, been waitin for my transfer which was approved on "27-May-2008 14:59". I sent an email yersterday which was responded cordially by "Erin," but no time frame was given as to when I would receive my funds.
So I responded back specifically requesting a time frame, and was informed by "Helen" that:
"At this time we do not have an estimated time frame as to when you will receive your funds. We assure you that your funds will reach your bank account soon and agree that the extended delay is totally unacceptable. We are in contact with our processor and are doing everything we can to ensure that your funds reach you as quickly as possible."
I frickin love playing here and don't really want to leave, but man, over a month waiting to get paid? It's getting frustrating to say the least. |

That was the date of my withdrawal approval as well (May 27th), I still haven't seen anything hit my bank account, so we're in the same boat. |

The idea is to get you to keep playing here obviously. The fact that you can't withdraw via check unless you have $100 when you can't even withdraw via an electonic bank transfer anymore should be red flag enough not to play here anymore. Given this, the longer they stall, the more money they make because most people aren't gonna even get up to $100.
This place scams you with rigged RNGs and now it's scamming you by not allowing you to withdraw your money when you want to. The more inconvenient it is for you to withdraw and you allow it, the more they make in the end by you not even bothering to withdraw from here anymore.
It's really too bad this place and other online sites aren't regulated. |

So now my question is, since I have been away from poker for like 3 years...i missed the whole downfall of online sites (half the sites i use to play at no longer accept US players ) and places like netteller (saw they have been in trouble )
Anyway, for US player, what would be the best way to deposit and withdrawl?
Thanks for the heads up. |

Kreepy,
I used Ultraprepaid to deposit. I also use it to withdraw. Be aware, however, that tho thier site says '20 business days' to receive your withdrawl, I'm still waiting on my June 4th withdrawl. The apparent 'transaction issue' has been resolved, so I've been told I'll recieve it in another 10 business days.
Moral: Don't expect the money u withdraw. It will take it's sweet time getting to you. |

| i made my first deposit last week successfully with my visa but i have been trying to make my second deposit for a few days now and it keeps saying "thank you for attempting to make a deposit unfortunatly we can not process all credit cards at this time please try opening an ultra account" i am ready to leave this site after a short period of time. i have been emailing full tilt support with screenshots and other bs and they have helped me with nothing. if anyone here can then maybe i will stay, but pokerstars seems to be much more managed and professional |

so bank transfers arent working, I finally get approved for check withdrawal. The withdrawal gets approved in hours, a week goes by, and I get this email:
We wish to inform you of a temporary issue with our payment processor which has affected a small number of recent check withdrawals.
If you are affected by this issue and experience any difficulty cashing or depositing your recent check, please rest assured that we are fully aware of the situation and working to resolve it as swiftly as possible. we will contact you when we receive further information on the details of your recent check withdrawal.
In the interim, please reply to this email or contact checkquestions@fulltiltpoker.com for clarification and assistance.
We appreciate the importance of receiving your funds in a timely manner and apologize sincerely if you have been affected.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Sincerely,
Full Tilt Poker Support
still no check in the mail, now I'm afraid its going to bounce.
Once I get my money, I'm gone. Full Tilt was great, but they clearly have no idea how to treat their customers the right way- any other business that operated like this would be getting thousands of calls from the BBB. |

got the same message about the issue with a small number of check withdrawls... not sure what to make of this. My check was approved on June 27th and haven't received it yet....I know it says up to 15 business days but my patience is wearing thin.
When did you request your check ngonzal1? |

| what is all this discussion about? FTP will find any way in the world to TAKE your money, they just refuse to make payouts. People who say they've been paid by this site are liars. I have two payouts pending, both over 6 weeks old, and I know I'm never getting my money. So talk all you want about depositing....the only thing that matters is the ability to withdrawal, and that is absolutley never going to happen at FTP. They simply keep your money and email you excuses and lies. |

For US player, Full Tilt offers every deposit method in the book...but if you win, there is no withdrawal option. They keep your money and send you promises that they have no intention of honoring. Thousands upon thousands of players here have been waiting for their checks for months and months. A few players have started to get small payouts, and the checks are bouncing all over the place (See General Questions in Poker Forum). At least with Bodog, they approve your request same day and do automatic transfer and they NEVER lie about payouts. |

Your not better off getting a check withdrawal. I've been waitng since May 2nd for my check. Never came so had to cancell check and had a new one re-issued June 19th. Then got an email July 3rd saying there was a problem with my check and they are sending a new one. Then today I get an email from full tilt saying there is a problem with checks clearing! Can you believe that. Checks from full tilt are bouncing! Before you cash out by check I would research this chat board all things regarding until they "resolve" the issue. Might as well save yourself a bounced check fee. |

Requested a withdrawal by bank transfer on May 29th approved on May 30th for $800.00. It is
now July 9th still not money. Has anyone been waiting longer than this, would like to hear from you. Nearly a month and half and still no money. Then requested a check withdrawal and Ft
replied thru e-mail that that might be delayed. This is totally unacceptable for a business of this
magnitude dealing with millions of dollars of peoples money everyday. Very disappointed that
they seem indifferent when it comes peoples request. They should know that it's the average
player on this site that keeps them alive, not the 200/400 PLO players, because on those games
they only take a small rake. It is on the other games that they take their normal rake. Maybe
it's time for all of us to look playing elsewhere. |
