I have requested echecks from Stars and FTP on the same day, and believe it or not they are going to be delayed again, just like earlier this year when everyone told me to just wait the 1 month and never ask support where my money is or be angry about it.
Same shit, different day, echeck DD for USA because obv. they create a processing company, then shove about a grip and a half of $ through it, this has to alert someone that cares, then it goes DD. Wash, rinse, repeat.
12/14 - both cashouts made, one from 'stars, one from FTP 12/24 - I msg both sites and ask wtf is wrong. Oh it's before the 25 day waiting period? fuck you. echecks usually hit my account 5-7 regular person days after I request a cashout. They never take 15 business days / 3 weeks. It is an electronic transfer and if 'stars approves it on the 15th then where the fuck is the $?
letter from 'stars (and this sounds like they know about the issue and are trying to help me, others): Hello Bryan,
Thank you for contacting us.
Please accept our apologies for the delay in you receiving your cashout, please note that we are making eCheck cashouts our priority and are striving to make sure the money gets to you as soon as possible.
As a side note, there is no need to send us your bank statement since we are aware that some eChecks cashouts from early December might be a little delayed. May I remind you that eChecks cashout approximately take 10 business days to reach the bank accounts, however sometimes and depending on bank policies and because of the extremely high demand over the Christmas period, it may take longer.
I will notify our processors that your cashout may be affected and respond to you when I have further information on how to rectify this. Your cooperation and patience is greatly appreciated.
May I also remind you that your funds are entirely safe and secure. If you have any other concerns or questions then please do not hesitate to get in contact.
Best regards,
Owen PokerStars Cashier Specialist

They know about the issue. The 2+2 thread about it is blowing up.
I requested a cashout on 12/14 and it said it was processed the next day to my account, but the loot has yet to show up in my bank account. They keep telling me to wait, but it's like almost been a week and its just an electronic transfer (and one for not much, may I ask).
The best solution I can suggest? Just request the paper check; that's what I did for my next cashout. From PStars it takes about 3 days to my house here in Boston. It's not the ease of an electronic transfer nor has the speed of waiting for the check to clear, but it's better to at least GET the money I need for rent/bills rather it be in limbo.

JUST got an email right after I posted on NWP, from PStars, regarding the issue. Reading NWP, perhaps?

Hello Shizzmoney,
This email is in regards to the following cashout request:
Transaction ID: XXXXXXXXX
Requested on: 14-Dec-08
Amount: $XXX.XX
As you may know, we have been recently experiencing difficulties processing e-Check cashouts, however we have received many reports of the delayed e-Check cashouts beginning to be credited to players bank accounts today. While encouraging, there is still obviously a fair sized backlog of pending cashout requests. Given the time of year, we do understand the high urgency for people to get their money and are continuing to work to get this backlog cleared as quickly as possible. We are monitoring the status and completion rate of the still pending cashouts closely.
As a good will gesture for this delay, we have decided to credit your PokerStars account with a 10% bonus of the cashout amount. There are no conditions attached to this bonus and you are free to do what you like with the funds. This includes cashing out again via either paper check or via bank wire. We offer paper checks from $25 - $5000, and bank wires for cashout requests over $5000
As stated, we will continue to monitor the completion rate of cashouts; if in the next few days we determine that the still pending cashouts are not processed in a timely manner, we will cancel the cashouts and place the funds back in your PokerStars account to allow you to cashout via regular check.
Once again, we are extremely sorry for these issues which we understand have caused you a great deal of inconvenience, and we are working on a solution that should significantly improve the processing speed and reliability of e-Check cashouts.
Regards, PokerStars Payment Services

the middle of the month is the DD time for echecks, it seems.
1) I requested both FTP / Stars echecks on 12/14
2) I requested echecks from both of them 1 week prior and the $ was in my checking acct in about 5-6 regular person days.
3) I have been fucking more with click2pay, which seems to work for site-to-site xfers - it wants a $1500 min. cashout and some shady situation to email them your aba/routing #'s
4) god damn motherfuckers USA make this shit legal and regulated.

There has always been some weird sexual tension between phantom and Martha. Micon is lucky that there's a big ocean between you two.
I'm not sure which indignity is worse: - Leaving your wife, shacking up with your former neighbor, and getting cheated on with a guy from your own poker forum, or... - Getting ripped off for $12,000 by a guy with neck tattoos
Either way, Micon needs to be thankful that phantom isn't visiting his girl's land down under.

An update to this story: I didn't get my cash and the mobnies were credited back to my PokerStars account.
Checks still working though.
Same. Got my echeck $ deposited back to 'stars acct. Requested paper check, expect to have it soon. About a week after I requested my echeck I requested a paper check that got here quickly

I cashed out $505 on 12/13 from FTP - Wire transfer and have yet to recieve it I cashed out $2500 on 12/21 from FTP - same thing
What the fuck
you cashed out via a method known as an 'echeck' and not a 'wire' like the big boys get.
also FYI, Full Tilt has done nothing to compensate me and has given me zero info about my cashout. On the other hand Pokerstars shipped me 10% of my cashout as a bonus for waiting and kept me alert of the situation much better.
Definitely point for 'Stars customer service, demerit for Full Tilt.
