Ewalletexpress cashouts after June 1, 2010?

[Corey]

Subject asks it all. Essentially I use Ewalletexpress as my main Ewallet, I can still use it to move money in and out of many poker rooms, but I was wondering if anybody has attempted to withdraw some $ from EWXP to their checking account, given that UIGEA is supposed to be in effect.

I am getting close to an amount I'd like to withdraw and would like your input on this. If nobody's tried, I guess I'll be the guinea pig.

Well I'm making a big one over $1K this Friday, so I'll see if everything's OK!

I wonder what's going to happen with the new republican majority, also the Rep's in Texas where I live got more power, so it's conceivable they could ban online poker in texas

good luck!

thats quite a bit of money so hope all goes smoothly

 

[Corey]

Yeah, it went OK. I withdrew on a friday night, and by next Friday morning, I had the money in my checking account.

They charged 10%. Fortunately the bank (CHASE) didn't also charge a fee (I'm used to seeing $15 fees)

So yeah it still works post UIGEA

man u got it out right B4 Site went down. I guess ewallet express has been down a couple of days now. Sucks big time as it is my favorite method of transacting onto and off most poker sites. I have been unable to get specific time of when it will be back up. This so sux. Its going like Netteller all over????

 

[Corey]

As far as I can tell, the removal of EWXP is only temporary. We'll see within the next week. EWXP says they are undergoing "maintenance issues". I hope they didn't get HACKED. LOL!

Yes I will take this as a serious lesson to not have so much money (>$1K) in ewallets anymore!

I don't get the message it just loads to my account , everything seems normal , went to several different pages . I want to take money off carbon to ewallet then move it to another site but I'm still a little leary

if you have money and want it off then keep trying to log on daily until you find out for sure . carbon and bodog still have ewallet option but UB says temporarily unavailable .

Its Down..for Service upgrade....has been for at least a week

I don't get the message it just loads to my account , everything seems normal , went to several different pages . I want to take money off carbon to ewallet then move it to another site but I'm still a little leary

if you have money and want it off then keep trying to log on daily until you find out for sure . carbon and bodog still have ewallet option but Ultimatebet says temporarily unavailable .

if you look to the right after you log on it says system unavailable...as is live chat or telephone support. try to get you money shipped to pokersite or withdrawn...I'm sure that 10 percent wont seem as bad as it all at this point.

live support is working but they don't tell you anything .

Question about pokeroom withdraws thru EWX

When I cashout from a pokerroom, they say they have to send the ammount i deposited thru EWX back to EWX, and then I have to withdraw that ammount from EWX. So my question is....do the pokersites still have access to EWX, will they still deduct the ammount I funnded my pokerroom account with and send it to EWX before they release any funds above the ammount I deposited thru EWX? Sorry if this post sounds confusing.

 

[jaymfc]

not sure I understand but , if you deposited thru ewallet then that amount has to go back thru ewallet , whether or not they can still access ewallet , no one can say right now . if ewallet is history then they should let you withdraw any way you want . but JMO .

 

[The PoolBoy]

It is back up today but same old rhetoric..were working on a technical issue...blah...blah...blah. They are just a customer support company and dont know anything or have a date certa9in as to when funds will be available

Not confusing at all - I faced the same problem when I was trying to bypass Ewallet express's 10% fees.

The net result of all of this is if you deposited via EWXP to a poker room and request a cashout, since they can't cashout to EWXP any more they HAVE to give you another option!

But since the actual funds have been confiscated - I think the poker rooms are just going to have to write off any recent EWXP deposits they got.

Damn, I wish I had put that last $70 into Bodog or Cake while it was still working!

To everyone else who has even more money stuck in, you have my condolences! There may be hope, I had $1700 stuck in neteller for 10 months but I did get it back. So maybe the same will happen here.
