Party Poker blocks Inter-Account Transfers?
 

I have an unverified account on Party Poker that I funded with a transfer from someone else. I played on the account for quite some time and have made numerous transfers. Today I logged in and attempted to make a transfer (after someone already sent me money on another site) and I received a message that interaccount transfers are only permitted with preferred player accounts.

Anyone else find this to be the case or is this specific to me?

Can u send the $$ back to this person on the other site? Problem solved!

Obv. The point of the post was to determine whether this was specific to me or a site policy change.

No this is a new initiative they're doing. It's to further lock down on money laundering. I had to do it too at the weekend after playing there since January.

I understand that this applies to everyone.

I know of at least a handful of players (ie, everyone I know who has tried to transfer without being a "verified player") who have had this problem.

Oh great! I was going to fund an account on PokerStars by giving a local player some money and he was going to transfer that same amount to me online.

This sucks!

PokerStars != PartyPoker.
