iv received 3 payouts from Doylesroom recently may be their getting things straight good luck!
Hi guys;
This is Mark, affiliate account manager over here at Doyle's. I just wanted to drop by and let you all know that, even though I am NOT with accounting, I may get faster updates on your payout status.
Stevencool is right, our new management is taking this matter seriously, actually, we have changed one of our old processors and checks are being sent much faster.
Just to make it clear, these payout issues happened not because we wanted to scam you or anything; due to the UIGEA, many credit card and check processors have left the market, putting us in a real difficult possition.
Like I said, let me know your situation and I'll get you an update.

I just love the poor english....maybe they should proofread THEIR generic responses....We are also very aware of the situation in regards to how long the time frame is but, we cannot rush our processor to issue these checks immediately as we are not "there" only client.

As for your question, it took Doyles a little over 6 weeks for me to get my check. Funny thing is, just as with you, they cried about having processor difficulties. However, when I finally received my check, it was from the same company that sends my Full Tilt and Stars withdrawals. The operative word in this post is deceit.
So today is Monday 2/23, the 5th business day since my check was sent via FedEx. According to Doyles Room support the check was sent on Tuesday 2/17. Payed the $50 to have the check sent via FedEx and it will obviously not arrive in the timeframe specified, 4-5 business days. Here is the best part....
At around 9:30 this morning I had a knock on my door and it was the FedEx delivery man. I had to sign for a package (box) so I obviously knew right away it wasn't my check, it was something for St. Patty's Day my girlfriend ordered. I took it upon myself to ask the FedEx guy if he could look up to see if anything was on its way to me via FedEx. He took his little hand held computer and looked up my name/address and told me that nothing else was being sent to me or this address today. He said if something was overnighted to me today that it would be in the system tomorrow morning and I would obviously receive it tomorrow. Well isn't that just great.
So, Doyle's Room charges the $50 for FedEx delivery, which is for normal delivery 4-5 business days, and yet they tell me the check was sent but it really hasn't. Unless they overnight it today, which I doubt, the check hasn't even been sent yet. I'm calling Doyle Brunson out because this is bs. Not only is the lying by support not acceptable but they are ripping people off with the fee they charge. How can you tell a customer that the check was sent and swear by that yet it's not registering in the FedEx system?
I emailed support this morning around 10AM regarding this situation. Every other time I have emailed them they have responded within a half an hour. Needless to say this time they haven't responded yet. I don't need this money to survive or will it kill me if I never receive it but I'm just writing this to keep people informed of the terrible withdrawal process on this site. DON'T PLAY HERE UNLESS YOU DON'T MIND WAITING A LONG TIME FOR YOUR MONEY!
Here is the emailed response from accounting regarding my FedEx delivered check:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting us here in accounting at Doyle Brunson poker network it will be my pleasure to assist you.
Unfortunately, no FedEx does NOT work on weekends for delivery's and our site shows it as business days onlt not including weekends and as I see it we still have until Wednesday morning for this check processed on 2/17/2009 to be delivered...
If you have any further questions in regards to this matter please, feel free to contact me either by phone or email which are located under my signature.
Once again, thank you for contacting accounting at Doyle Brunson poker network and may you have a great day.
Sincerely,
Ricky G.

First off, FedEx does deliver on Saturdays. Here is the quote for service time for ground delivery straight form their website: "Service Days Monday–Saturday. Delivery is between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m." So accounting has no clue when FedEx delivers.
Second, according to how "he sees it" they have until Wednesday morning to deliver my check. According to support in prior contacts it was sent on Tuesday 2/17 via FedEx. This was confirmed in the email above. The $50 fee you pay for FedEx includes the receipt of your check within 4-5 business days. If I do my math correctly, last Tuesday 2/17 to this Wednesday 2/25 is 7 business days.
This site is an absolute joke and I hope Doyle Brunson reads 2+2 because he should be ashamed. He's more concerned about betting on his own death than whether or not his customers, who he is making decent money off of I'm sure, are being treated properly.
Dear Mr. XXXXXXX.
Greetings from Doyle’s Room!
I’m please to inform you that we have received your UPS Tracking number. You will be able to check the status of your payment using the following tracking number: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

...So now they don't send it FedEx it's UPS....OK....not to mention it was sent today via overnight mail. So support lied and it wasn't sent out on 2/17. They just overnight it the day before they say you should receive it. Makes no sense, probably could have had it last week.
Just to recap I requested a check by mail payout on April 4th. I received this email four days later or so...

I finally bitched enough today to the live 27/4 chat via their homepage and the telephone operator that they finally transferred me to a "supervisor" who reiterated teh same bs that the check was mailed out on May 11th and then said it would take 4 to 5 weeks to receive the check. I then asked if the check was coming from Planet Mars. She said no, and after I stated that the phone call was gonna posted on the internet she stated that it would be actually 3 weeks to receive. So it's clear that not only was the above email complete bs and the check was never sent on that April 8th date, but the check probably has still not been sent and they will wait a few more weeks before sending it out, again, to penalize me for requesting a payout.
If you still play at this site after reading this, you've been warned that this place is a complete and total sham.
So they actually called me Saturday. The indian chick said that they are cancelling that old check and I should have a new one by Friday........I cashed out Feb 9th I believe. I will believe it when I see it.
LOL The crooks at Doyle's room have blocked my account due to the posts I've made here regarding my attempts to get my money from that site.
I just called them to find out about trying to sign up for a usemywallet account like this other guy was saying so I can withdraw my money that way and the customer rep said upper management decided to suspend my deposit options as a result of my postings about not receiving my payout as has been promised.
What a bunch of crooks.
Again, whatever you guys do, do NOT play at that site if you ever intend to request payouts. I'm going on two months, while other people in this thread alone are going on 4 and 5 months.

They specifically said "due to posts you've been making at a messageboard".
This username is almost exactly the same as my login there.
If anyone that regularly posts in this forum has issues and posts about getting screwed, it's ur own fault since you didn't listen to this thread.
Hi guys;
adubcho: I highly recommend you to get a hold of the security department ASAP.
I really thank you all for the posts in this thread. Zac, I read the posts in 2+2 about this matter. Like I said in my very first post, I am NOT with the accounting department, I am an affiliate account manager. I understand that you all are extremely disappointed with our accounting dept. and I am not blaming the UIGEA only for these issues; though the bill was passed three years ago, it still affects the industry, believe it or not. Now, as affiliate manager, I've had to deal with these a lot because I provide service not only to the affiliate but to his/her players as well, so I know what you guys are talking about and, even worst, I've been lucky enough to attend to affiliate conventions and the beauty of it is that you get these comments live.
So, many times I have to ask accounting for the status of my affiliate's payments and their players' payments and all I get is "the check was sent on blah blah; should take 4 weeks to arrive" Then again, I didn't come here to resolve your issues or make the checks get there faster 'cause I just can't; I came here to help you guys to get updates on the status of your checks, not to start a discussion about whether Doyle is a crook or not.
I really appreciate your contribution zac and I hope you keep on posting in our threads; these payout issues are being worked out by experienced people that were hired exclusively to improve our accounting department; hopefully, we will see the changes very shortly.
Most important for me is to come here and listen to your comments, good or bad, a company can not make everybody happy, otherwise, there would be only one in the world.
See you soon!
-Mark
Hey guys;
well adubcho, the problem is that they don't have what it takes when it comes to angry customers, I mean, you have the right to get angry and I back you up on this. I think I can get this issue solved, just give me some time and I'll get back with you.
He is either owed the money ... or he is not. If you don't like the customer's attitutude, it's your choice to block him ... AFTER you have paid what you owe.
STerasedU; your check should be arriving in two weeks. It was sent out on June 19th.
That would be ~July 14th. That's almost a MONTH in delivery transit if it was ISSUED June 19th. Or does 'issued' mean it is still on someone's desk waiting for further 'processing'? What delivery service does Doyle's Room use? Pony Express? Ocean Container? OK, if it was "sent out" on 6/19, might we all ask HOW it was sent? If accounting has told you WHEN, they can surely tell you HOW.
About Doyle being a scam, I respect your point of view because you have had issues in the past but we have hundreds of happy customers; customers that enjoy our Bounty tournaments very much, our ring games and sit n' goes. The 110% sign up bonus was the very first of its kind, anyway...
With all these issues and inconveniences, I don't think any of you would ever come to play at Doyle's right? Obviously, the problem here is the payouts situation but, is there any positive comment about Doyle from you guys?

If Nick or other CC mods allow Doyle's room to be listed without some pretty good proof that things are changing I'm going to lose a lot of respect for them.

Ultimatums can sound ugly zach, try asking first.
