Anyone having problems with Full Tilt withdrawals?

#1 4th March 2010, 10:45 PM

Just writing to see if anyone is having problems with Full Tilt withdrawals.

I made one on Saturday morning via regular Bank Transfer and it has yet to show up in my account as of Thursday evening.

Here recently I had been getting my money either the very next day or two days at the latest. A couple of Saturday's ago I made a withdrawal and it was there Monday night.

I am a regular Full Tilt player. The only reason I am concerned is because its the biggest withdrawal Ive ever made with them, plus I have some more money I need to take out whenever this one arrives.

Thanks for reading guys..

I withdrew via check last week and i havent gotten a check yet...hopefully we get our money soon!

I don't have any personal knowledge of this, but there are some stories going around on other forums. Supposedly, some of Fulltilt's checks have been bouncing in the last couple weeks and also some wires not clearing. A few days ago a German man working in Florida was arrested in connection with his companies proccesing of online gambilng payouts. His companies were go betweens from the online gambling sites to the customers.

I'm new here and not sure about the rules so I don't want to post any links. You can find it easily if you search for it. I believe his name was Schuett or something like that. There is a lot of speculation right now, so take it as you will.

I have always used Neteller to withdraw and have never had a problem.

#5 6th March 2010, 6:53 PM

Never had a problem... Neteller seems to be pretty instant! In a hour in most of my experiences of it!

I'm awaiting a withdraw too, after two previous ones. I tried to do three echeck withdraws in a row but I think the third one got hung up. Anybody know if this is normal?

Thanks!

I don't know if you can call it normal but several of the online poker sites have had these payment processor problems in last little while. Doylesroom , Carbon , Sportsbook and full tilt have had big delays while trying to adjust their cheque processing. In all the cases I know about it was eventually fixed.

I also think it is the easyest way. There are a lot of banks from where you can check out money from Neteller and i saw all the poker sites work fine with Neteller, almost instant.

#10 7th March 2010, 7:57 PM

Unfortunately for North Americans netteller is no longer viable. I have a couple friends who swear by moneybookers.

#11 7th March 2010, 8:55 PM

I have withdrawn from full tilt many times in the past via check in the mail. Full tilt says to allow 15 business days for the check to arrive. I have NEVER waited more than 10 days for the check to arrive and the check has always cleared. good luck....

I'm not having problems withdrawing, it won't let me deposit with my visa debit though, and it works on every other site and has on FT before

#14 8th March 2010, 1:59 PM

Yes I agree Neteller seems to be the best

#15 8th March 2010, 5:16 PM

I had two problems with echeck. Both times the money was refunded back to the FTP account. My only option now is to send photo ID and wait for a check. The echeck option doesn't come up in the withdraw form.

Good luck, keep us posted on the progress.

#16 8th March 2010, 6:15 PM

LOL the story is very known that Fulltilt is making a big mess out of check payments. 3/4 weeks after withdrawl still no reply after emailing and emailing and hasseling about the money finally they came across and payed it out. Freaking idiots

Funny thing is, takes 1 minute to make a deposit but 1 month to get a withdraw. Crazy how that works, crazy like a fox I guess.

I used to work for FTP, and sorry if you live in the U.S. you will most likely have issues getting your money. eCheck and/or paper check is the best way for withdrawals for U.S. players but processors get shut down all the time resulting in bounced checks, mass delays, ect.

These issues really have nothing to do with the poker site themselves. The U.S. government has made it illegal for banks and payment processors to process transactions to and from U.S. Bank accounts. This is why you will see your checks from sketchy names.

The government catches these fraudulent payment processors, they get busted, and new ones crop up. This is how FTP and any other site that caters to U.S. players can still process these transactions.

If you live in the U.S., simply be patient, and realize that you cannot rely on any specific time period to get your funds. That being said, FTP is a big site with a reputation to protect, and they will do their best to ensure that you (eventually) get your funds

AND..for the guy asking about fees, most sites including FTP wont charge you for a bank transfer withdrawal, but some banks may. Talk to your financial institution to see if a fee is charged for these types of transactions.

I'm just wondering if anyone else is having issues getting their money from Full Tilt Poker? I've never had any issues in the past, but all of a sudden, the past month, it seems Full Tilt Poker is "having issues with their payment processors", or at least so they keep telling me.

I've been trying for over one month now to get my funds from Full Tilt Poker to no avail. The worst part for me is that a month ago when I made a withdrawal via Premium Bank Wire, after three weeks of waiting, Full Tilt Poker finally said they could not process my withdrawal and credited the funds back to my Full Tilt Poker account. The same day they told me they could not process my withdrawal, they told me I could go ahead and try to withdrawal my money again via any of their payment methods, including Premium Bank Wire, and I wouldn't have any issues!!

Of course I was skeptical, so I then made a request to withdrawal my funds via standard Bank Wire. It's now been another two weeks of waiting, and Full Tilt just now responded telling me they "just found out" they are having issues with their Premium Bank Wire method, so this withdrawal method has now been temporarily suspended at Full Tilt Poker, but Bank Wire is still an active withdrawal method/Full Tilt Poker has not acknowledged they are having issues with Bank Wire payment method too.

I post this note to see if I am alone in my frustration, and also to warn others that you may be waiting a long time to see your money if you play at Full Tilt Poker, if you see it at all.

Very truly,
Frustrated

Requested eTransfer Sunday night. In my bank account on Wednesday.

#21 26th March 2011, 6:57 AM

Same here...requested Sunday and in my bank account Wednesday. However, I did have probs the last time I withdrew. They changed it from a direct deposit to a wire transfer. Transfer fees were like $48, but FT credited my account $50 to cover the cost.

#22 26th March 2011, 6:01 PM

I placed a withdrawal (back to my bank account) over 6 weeks ago. Full-tilt keeps telling me they are working on the problem but they won't reverse my W/D to play with or to select another w/d type. They don't have a problem taking my money when I deposit

Same problem. I have been trying for 6 weeks to get my money. They even said they changed it to wire transfer and credited me 50.00 but I still don't have my money and they don't know when they will get the problem resolved.

same problem. 6 weeks now. I am not putting another dime on the site until I know I can get my money. They keep telling me it is a processor issue and don't know when it will be resolved.

I requested a cash out by check ~12 days ago now. It was approved ~9 days ago, still waiting for delivery, but well within the time frame they give for checks. Of course this is about twice as long as I have ever waited for a check. Will update when I receive the check, but I have no doubt that Full Tilt will pay.

#24 26th March 2011, 6:46 PM

Last week I also requested a check,got an email a few days ago saying my check was in the mail,in 10-15 days I will find out.
I posted a question on here right before I requested a cashout,asking if there was any problems with cashouts,and everyone posted positive,so now im hearing different...

#25 26th March 2011, 8:59 PM

Just checked the mail, got my check either yesterday or today. No problems so far, a little slower than before but still got my check within 2 weeks of requesting the withdrawal. Just has to clear the bank.

#26 27th March 2011, 12:27 AM

My last few withdrawals have been quick and easy. No problems whatsoever.

#27 1st April 2011, 1:18 PM

you are not the only one experiencing the problem as it is has become an issue more than ever before. Try echeck it is a good way of depositing and withdrawing money will no or less problems

#28 1st April 2011, 1:31 PM

Sometimes they go a bit nuts about the checks and take too much time to process your withdrawals even if you have done it before.

It grinds my gears considering they promote moneybookers in 24-48 hours and it took me 6 days.
