I hope you get your money, no one should have problems cashing out from any site.

My point is that we see all these "I cannot cash out" threads from posters with no history at 2+2 and unfortunately we know that in most cases, these are not reliable persons.

I find it hard to believe that all these cheques are bouncing because of "unsuficcient funds", but in view of the current situation in the US, I suppose it is possible and am sure some of the stories are true.

I just wonder why we never (or hardly) hear these kind of stories from long-time posters.

In any case, I hope you soon find a solution to your problem.

It would also help, one way or the other if one of the FTP's posters came with a statement.

there's plenty of people who have had problems withdrawing from ftp. it took them 4 months to ships me a 4k check.

there's plenty of other people who had to wait a long time too.

i think cashing out from ftp is recognized problem / hassle

Sean I think we can almost count 10 affected players just in this thread. This doesn't make a lot of sense.

Sean/other FTP representatives:

I think you can see why im paying 6k rake/month to stars instead of you guys.

Same for me but I am closer to 5k rake/month. Seems to be way too many problems at full tilt.

FYI I requested a check for around $500 more than a month ago. This was the last response I received from FTP:

----------

Hello,

I would like to apologize for the delay you are experiencing in
receiving your check. It was processed on April 8th and was sent out on
April 10th. I have contacted our check processor and forwarded them the
relevant information regarding your check. They generally take a day or
two to respond to us, so come Monday we should have some concrete
answers for you.

I feel obligated to let you know that we are getting reports from a
small number of players saying that they are receiving their checks up
up to 10 business days later than the quoted delivery time. While this
is troubling for us, as we expect our processor to keep the shipping
times close to the 10 business day guideline, it is reassuring to know
that the checks are arriving (in most cases).

As we are just coming out of a transitional phase caused by the new
gambling legislation in the United States, please keep in
mind that this is a new processor for us and there are still kinks that
need to be worked out before things are running entirely smoothly. We
expect that these type of delays will be few and far between in the
future.

Once again I am sorry for your trouble and if there is anything else we
can do for you, do not hesitate to contact us.

Regards,

Luke

They did not send me a follow up email so I've emailed them again tonight. They keep telling me it was sent out but I have a feeling it never was. Anyways I'm just a rec player and I haven't played any poker lately since I don't have much faith in the site paying out.

so this is how far i have gotten with emailing support on this issue. I really think this is terrible customer service!!!

why has no one gotten back to me on this returned check issue?

furthermore,
why has the money from the returned check not been put back in my
account? furthermore, i am still waiting on a second check that i would
like cancelled and put back in my account as i dont feel like having
that one returned to me either.

i cannot play on your site until these funds are returned, and i play
about 10k hands a week.

please resolve immediately

lmao, that is almost the exact same email that i got a full week ago, also from "ian."

"isolated incident" my ass.

Hello Joseph,

Thank you for contacting Full Tilt Poker Support.

We are not aware of an issue with regards to our checks not being
honored. This appears to be an isolated incident. We issue literally
thousands of checks each week and would have been inundated with
numerous emails on this subject were it an ongoing issue.

[or maybe our heads are just stuck that far up our asses and NOBODY in our customer support department TALKS to anybody else]

We are currently looking into your situation but it may take some time
for me to fully research your issue. We have emailed to the third party
check processor who issues the checks on our behalf.

Rest assured, I will get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks for
your patience in the meantime.
