Pokertime/Trident Says No Checks

Pokertime is telling me that they can not send me a check because I am in the USA, and that the only way I can get funds off is ecocard.

Has any one used ecocard before? It looks pretty "s H#ty" , also has Pokertime told this to anyone else?

If I can not easily get money to and from their site I will not play there any more.

Pokertime told me the same thing. I'm in the middle of using EcoCard to withdrawal $1K from their site. It takes time, but so far so good.

Checks are no good, it appears that ACH no longer works and that Eco Card is the only way for US residents to get money off of Poker Time.

I set up Eco Card over the weekend and initiated a withdrawal. Still waiting for funds to show up. From what I have read on other threads it seems to take a couple weeks to go from Poker site > Eco Card > Bank.

Requested withdrawal from Poker Time on Sunday. Poker Time waits 24 hours before processing request. Funds were loaded to my Eco Card as of Tuesday morning. I've now requested the funds be transferred to my bank account. There was a $10 transfer fee for this transfer. I expect my bank will also charge a fee.

I entered my account number (no IBN for US residents) and looked up my bank SWIFT code on their web page. Hopefully all goes smoothly.
