Transfering money from Stars to Carbon (any US site)

Well, I only have $95 on Stars right now (only $5 away from a paper check which would be perfect, sick) so my only choice is to cash out via bank account transfer. That's not a viable option for me right now as I owe and am trying to negotiate a better price in terms of the fees (waiting to get the right person on the phone).

Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone would be willing to put some money on my soon to be new Carbon account for me after I transfer them my PS funds. You keep $20. Personally, I'll do this with any site currently available to US players. Sportsbook, lock, playersonly, you name it. If you have the money to cover me on any of the sites I'm interested.

Is it even possible:

A) For US players to transfer money to a, let's say UK player on PS anymore?

B) Players on Carbon or any other site offering service to US players, to accept money transfers from other players?

Stars claims you must cash out on Stars when you open up the cashier, but I checked the money transfer option in the lobby and I wasn't blocked. I didn't enter a name/amount to transfer to obviously never clicking okay, so I'm crossing my fingers as there's no way to know without an attempt.

Unless both A and B are true then I'm screwed and I guess my money goes to charity. Obviously you must have some sort of credibility if you're interested in giving this a go.

Tranfers to and from US players are no longer allowed at PS.

I only had $98 and wanted a paper check, emailed stars support and after a few days my paper check is now on its way.

Thats sick! im just watching for an answer, but i think it's impossible at the moment. Hold on mate

Update for anyone else potentially in a similar situation who wants a paper check, but doesn't quite qualify.

I e-mailed Stars on the 10th and was basically told a paper check was out of the question and I missed the mark. After a second e-mail (same day [ great customer service I must say])my request was primed to be processed and reviewed.

Today, the 16th my check is on it's way. Actually, the checks been "initiated" and I'm told to expect a delay in processing and delivery, but Stars has confirmed that I shall be receiving it, so my concerns are alleviated.

In one of our e-mails, Stars stated there are an influx of requests like these, so be persistent and they'll compromise. 6 days and a total of 4-5 e-mails back and forth and there's light at the end of the tunnel. Good Luck, See you all on Carbon.

excellent news. I'll give it a try. I was really bummed after seeing it wasn't an option for me.

I got a transfer on FTP from another player who was not US even though I can't transfer as a US player. Thought that was weird.
