Hey CC. I'm about to make a few withdraws from Bovada, BC, and Lock yeah I know Lock right?

Well for a noob like me who has never made a withdraw, and never made a deposit also ( started BR with freerolls) can you guys/gals give me, and I'm sure others some detailed info on how to make a first time withdraw? The easiest, and best way, and how to send verification documents and so on?

Basically asking to be told like I'm a first grader.

So can some withdraw experts here at CC please help us first timers? Its kinda confusing to some of us :)

Thanks for your help here Guys/gals.:)

First off, you cannot withdraw unless you have made a deposit because part of the withdraw rules is it must be a specific time after your deposit (most are 24 or 48 hours after your last deposit). So to withdraw, you will have to deposit first.

Now, to help you out, usually I just print their verification documents, fill them out and scan them with a copy of your ID and fax them back to the proper email address (whatever email they give in the verification section). They make it pretty simple if you read their "how to."

I must also warn you, some sites (Carbon I know for sure) penalize American players if you don't do paper check because wire transfers from gambling sites are illegal per UIGEA. So my rec is to do paper check if the sites allow you to.

I hope this helps.

^^^NOT NECESSARILY TRUE! I withdrew large amounts from WPN without ever depositing there.

However, I do remember depositing at UB just so I could withdraw. Same thing at FULL TILT IIRC.

The sites will all follow a KYC (Know Your Customer) policy to avoid as much as possible any problems with US based 'rules' (and I use that term loosely, especially since there aren't any).

Expect it to take longer than you would think reasonable. So like don't be starting today expecting anything for Xmas. That ship has probably already sailed.

They will want info that seems absurd to you. Talk with their support if you question the validity of something.

YOU WILL ONLY HAVE TO DO THIS PROCESS ONCE!

Thanks. I talked to Bovada, Bc,And Lock,and they all told me I can withdraw without ever having made a deposit. The only site that told me I had to deposit before I could withdraw was Betonline.

It should probably be added that these days in the US all the necessary info is collected when you deposit. Which makes withdrawal easy as they will only want to know that nothing has changed, or that it has and they have the current info correct.
