Withdrawl methods for Canadians

I haven't withdrawn in a while and can't even remember what I used to use. I think it was a mailed cheque but that takes a while.

NL, lodog, gord or someone else care to share what they use to withdraw or what they think are the best methods?

Sorry Chuck, for not noting this. Aloe also might have suggestions.

Last time I withdrew it was in the summer from Costa and I got them to send via bank transfer. Not too difficult, took a few days, but Royal Bank charged me $15. I think Lodog said he got Costa to send a cheque which cost him $10 to cash.

I used the cheque method from Stars and From Titan. It took 3 weeks from Titan and about ten days from poker stars. The new method for depositing required is making me think a Credit Card (prepaid and isolated) is a better idea. Here is a message that was sent by

Straight to Visa works for me and takes about 8-10 days, no fees.

Hey Taylor, I use instadebit, or UseMyBank also moneybookers or paypal.

1-5 days to get money into bank account via Instadebit and UseMyBank. I haven't withdrawn yet via moneybookers or paypal, so not sure how long it takes with them. I imagine about the same time.

I have had no issues with instaDebit or UseMyBank, but not all sites have them.

Most of the methods above tho if you are not registered with them yet, then it takes time to confirm your address, your bank account etc. Usually 3-5 days. Some will actually mail you a letter or put a couple of little deposits into your account and you have to verify amounts.

The problem I had with Checks ex Costadel is that here in canada They don't except them or put a 2-6 month hold on them

Hope this helps, if you need any more info about these let me know. We'll be glad to guide you threw it.

lol rufcut happy 200th post but it still does say 199

I don't know about in Canada, but in the UK withdrawal doesn't work.

That's why I have two kids *Trombone*
