My deposits are not showing up in my bank, is it FREE MONEY?

[thankyou]

I make a deposit onto FTP or Stars using a checkcard, and the deposits are approved and stay pending in my checking account for about 5 days then drop off and my acount becomes credited. For example, I'll make a $500.00 deposit onto Stars and my Stars account is credited for $500.00. My checking acct is then -$500.00 in pending and about 5 days later, the charge drops off and my account doesnt show any transactions. Is anyone else experiencing this?

free money donk it all off

[thankyou]

Its a serious question and I wanted to know if anyone was getting the same problem

I have a feeling you're not getting free money and you're gonna get charged for it in the end. Online transactions are shady and you might wanna request a statement from your bank just to check, but you're not just gonna get that money free.

[thankyou]

yeah the funny thing is I called both my bank and the various poker sites and they. The bank said there are no pending transactions and the poker sites say theres no problem and that theres been a successful transaction.

[thankyou]

is anyone else getting this same thing? Or are they cashing your deposits at a very late time?

[jono]

did you wait at least 10 business days?

This happened to me last week.

I did two deposits (stop laughing) from my Visa Debit card to FTP and only one came out......

My personal "pending" record is a full month - a credit card deposit at UB, accepted immediately, stayed as pending until after my next statement came out, briefly disappeared, and then popped up the day after it disappeared as a charge.

I enjoyed the free float, having the cashout check back before the CC statement came in, didn't have to tie up any of my own actual money to get the deposit bonus and the miles.

People are just too impatient. Sometimes it takes 10+ business days for it to work out.
