are echecks safe to use?

#1 20th December 2009, 3:31 AM

I haven't played poker online in about a year and was considering making a deposit with echecks. I researched them some and read about how they were banned for awhile by the government or something. Does anyone know if they are safe to use now and can be trusted for withdrawals?

I use echecks on both full tilt and pokerstars and have never had a problem. Withdrawal money from both sites as well and all was good =)

You may have to wait for it to clear for tranfers, but you can play immediately.

Yes, it works. That was only for a short while that it was unavailable. However, eChecks is not available for everyone, so check your cashier window to see if it's an option for you.

For withdrawals, eChecks works the same way it deposits, only in reverse. When you withdraw, it deposits (wires) directly into your bank account. Usually only take a couple of days.
