Re: Poker Stars Instant EChecks
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I requested a cashout on August 29th , and it appeared today. Had to complain about a $2.95 fee as well. No purchase on 8/27 has appeared in my bank account yet. I'm really hoping this gets back to the old turnaround times, and no annoying fees. I hate having to keep more $ on stars than I need to play since 1/19 , just because I'm worried about having trouble reloading if I cashout too much and hit a downswing. [/ QUOTE ] ditto gg [/ QUOTE ] I sent an email last night about the processing fee charge. They credited it to my poker account today rather than my bank account. gg [/ QUOTE ] The purchase that I made on 8/27 has been deducted from my bank account now. I am even with PokerStars on both of my instant eCheck transactions since 1/19/07...if they don't "reverse" something ex post facto. gg |

Re: Poker Stars Instant EChecks
Like the post above me says...use the paper check withdrawal method instead of waiting of stars/echecks to get their poop together. I've received all my checks in the mail (from CA to NY) within 5-6 calendar days of withdrawal request.

Re: Poker Stars Instant EChecks
I used echecks on Sept. 1st to deposit $400 to Stars.
This morning I got email from Stars saying they couldn't debit my bank, and they withdrew the money from my Stars account. The email says if I didn't have enough money in my Stars account to cover the debit, I need to repay Stars the difference, and that I can use echecks. So, I'm negative $300 in Stars presently. I can't say I'm thrilled that Stars resolved it this way, but I understand. If I use echecks again won't the same thing happen? Will I be able to play again immediately, or am I looking at a 1 to 2 week wait until the money transfers go through? |

[/ QUOTE ] My understanding is that it works like this: you have to pay them back first, then you can use echecks again, but you have to wait for your deposits to clear the old-fashioned way. After two successful deposits in that way, you can then email customer service and see if they can let you do it instantly again. Sort of like probation. |

Their echeck processor just screwed me over. I made my deposit of 300 dollars back on 8/31. I received the email saying they were behind. On 10/9, 300 came out of my checking account, cool. On 10/12, ANOTHER 300 came out of my checking account. Not cool. I called my bank and got the number to Aegis (aka OurPay). Called them up, and they said they had a whole list of customers who had been double-billed, and assured me that they'd refund the money to me within 15 days. On a side-note, I made a cashout request on 10/5, and haven't received it just yet. Pokerstars told me that the cashout request wasn't made until 10/8, even though my history tab under "cashier" says 10/5. PokerStars is slipping. [/ QUOTE ] Same thing just happened to me. I only made a $25 deposit just to see if it worked. Now I have two $25 withdrawls from my bank account. I'm glad I didn't deposit more than that. |

Re: Poker Stars Instant EChecks
If EChecks are a bad way to get money on Stars what is the best way? I'm talking about a couple thousand in cash.
