Awesome! I would love to make a deposit to pay this. Can I EFT from my US bank account, or do you prefer Neteller?

Thank You.

Party Poker sucks. I cashed out for ~400$ on black Friday November 14th by paper check. It is now February 8, and I still haven't gotten it. First they said it was lost,then they accused me of cashing the check. Now been waiting 3 weeks for the copy of the check showing that it was cashed.FU party

Just like their software, they are ass backwards.

Guys, sorry for the semi-thread hijack here, but I don't think this deserves it's own thread. I want to deposit 300$ into a site, but only have 289$ in account ATM (I know lol brokeaments). I just deposited my latest work check for @250$, and it just hasn't hit my account yet. If I deposit on the site now, will I get hit with overdraft fees or will it be ok until my check hits?

If that's a semi-thread hijack, i'd hate to read a proper hijack of yours.

Edit: p.s. to answer your question, you should ask your bank about their arrangements for such things.

That's funny. I have like .30 cents in my party poker account, and it has been inactive for over a year. Since there is only .30 cents in there, they aren't charging me any kind of fee. But alas, the rules are only enforced if you have money they can take. What a great company. You should email them and ask them if they enforce this "policy" on all inactive accounts.
