If you go in and say "Hi, can I deposit my money I won in illegal online gambling please?", yes, they're going to look at it/you like it/you are diseased. I'm afraid that's society for you.

I've heard of very few cases indeed where players have run into problems, let alone several players who use specific branches. I've dealt with literally thousands of problems related to cashouts in the two years I worked in Support, and a couple of them were related to cheques that banks didn't accept.
