official FTP payment thread
 

lets use this thread to collect hard data on payouts. leave opinions/theory's/complaints in the other thread and just give the facts here.

post ONLY if you have a pending payout from the month of June. it seems even though mistakes have been made by FTP that people were receiving checks (on the whole) in a timely manner until the past few weeks.

i will start

$ requested: $716
date requested: 6/12
method: check
i live: las vegas

if you post you haven't received your check yet, and then do, please come back and let us know that,

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

This thread really freaking me out because I don't have that much money in my bank account, and I just requested two 5k checks to buy into the main event, and need to get another check for living expenses pretty soon.

I requested the checks on June 19th and the 21st, so I guess I have a week before I can worry.

Re: official FTP payment thread

Let's see here WSOP 1st, living exp 2nd. lol You are a true degen. Get it all out now the death of online poker is coming July 10th.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

You guys consider this might be due to an increased number of cashouts during WSOP? And if they are in the middle of switching processors this is probably the worst time to do it.

They had no choice, the processors bailed overnight more than once to all sites. Yes, 12k WSOP payouts have slowed other payouts.

You will get paid fast because you're not a US player.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

Check approved 6-17
Still waiting

BTW I emailed them and asked them if it was actually in the mail and they said it was mailed right away when it was approved. Bull.

If you're having trouble with your processors send us a freaking mail and be honest about it.

I find it very weird that both FTP and Bodog won't come out publicly with what's really going on, maybe the truth is too scary for our ears?

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

This is starting to disturb me. If anyone out there has requested and recieved a check for any amount from FTP IN THE U.S. please come forward.

edit- in the past 3 weeks or so since this has been a problem obv.

I got my bodog check yesterday

I just requested a tilt check today, will update when I get it

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

if people wouldn't mind, please post the postmark date and arrival date of checks.

we need to force FTP to admit that their breakdown of the time delay is on their side and not due to "delivery" - which they currently claim accounts for up to 11 business days of the 15 they say check receipt should take.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

well i mean thats obv BS. Nobody expects us to believe the USPS takes 11 business days for delivery.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

Absolute switched banks also and my bankwire approved on 6/15 is not gonna clear until 7/2 or so they say. They gave 50 bucks free though. lol.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

just FYI the old ftp policy of free overnight or 2day delivery for checks $2500 and greater is gone because of the funding problem. now they take their time to make sure that the checks will all clear.

i have requested two checks and they both came within a week and a half and cleared just fine.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

when were they requested? where do you live?

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

april and may. california.

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

fwiw my withdrawals (over 10 of them) in the past 2-3 months were received within 10 CALENDER days. so basically echoing what everyone else has said.

FTPdoug and/or sean need to address this. i mean, wtf?

Ok I got my first 5k check today. Although I live about 30 miles away from where the check was issued so that might be why I've gotten mine before everyone else?

Re: official FTP payment thread
 

req. mine on 6/24.
did not receive it !!

if it was mailed on 6/27 like they said in the email I would have got it, because all the other times I have got it in the mail in 1-3 days EVERY time.

I am wondering if they really sent all the checks on 6/27, or if shipped actually means mailed.
