I made a deposit a few days before Xmas to take advantage of the bonus offer. Now more than 2 wks later, my checking account still doesn’t show the deduction. I do see that the funds available are decreased by my deposit amount, but there’s no debit entry in the ledger.

I have already withdrawn my money. God knows how long it’s gonna take for the credit to hit my checking acct.

It looks like the payment processor is having probs.Before it took only a few days.

I have to give FT credit. They've notified me that they will instead wire the money to my bank account and will credit me with $50 to cover any transfer fees.

Now, how much the fee will be and how I will be able to get that $50 out at a later time is another issue, but this is generous of FT.

I played there for two weeks to clear some bonus at micro, made a bit over $13... now I think the amount I actually get back, net of fees, will be less than what I deposited.

So I see the credit for the transfer in my checking account. I withdrew 113 and change, I got back 85 and change, meaning that I got charged $28 for the transfer, a 25% charge.

I am not sure what to do now. I've basically lost $15 trying to take advantage of the bonus offer. The $50 from FT is good and all, but I can't get it out without paying another $28 or so (I assume) even I deposit another $50 to qualify for withdrawal. Even if FT gives me another $50, that's just a neverending cycle.

If FT is having this problem, I am starting to worry about Carbon. I have about $300 there.
