Only from Full Tilt...

[Talking Poker]

I requested a check withdraw on 10/2 and it was approved the same day. I emailed them on the 17th, to ask if there were any problems. This morning (10/20), I received the following two emails, 12 minutes apart, in this order.

Thanks fort the $150, but seriously... I think it's time to hire a competent Support department.

Other side of the coin .I requested a cheeck from bodog for $400 on friday,Fedex delivered it today I have also never had a problem with the checks cashing but all my checks are for under $500.

With these problem that keep coming up, is there a chance that FTP is running into cash flow problems?

[Talking Poker]

I highly doubt that. I think it's Payment Processor problems.

[JDMcNugent7]

I don't see how they could be, ever.

Screw grinding the tables, a guy could almost make a living off of grinding cheque withdrawals.
