zAttacKz 0 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 It's not like u cash out on stars, it's one of these small poker sites. When u cashout u have to request it. then they "process" it. Ive only cashed out small off there via cheques as their minimum wire transfer cashout used to be $2000. But i built my bankroll on there from $25 to the $1800 i cashed out. IF i dont get my money (theyre ignoring my emails now) is there actually anything i can do? Link to post Share on other sites

JoblessBast 0 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Sounds like Bugsy's Club. I recently cashed out my entire roll from there due to lack of games and slow withdrawal payments. I just received the 2nd to last cashout a couple days ago that I requested, and it took over a month to receive (even though they claim it will take 4-10 days).Bob's right, they use a bank wire system that goes through a couple different processors before it gets to you.

JoblessBast 0 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 The latest:From: Tom via RT (cashout@bugsysclub.com)Sent: Fri 8/22/08 11:26 AMReply-to: cashout@bugsysclub.comHi XxxxxxWe are sincerely sorry for the delay with your wire and anyinconvenience this may have caused you. We are no longer able to send wires from our bank account in TheNetherlands, we therefore have to send the funds from our bank in Malta.However we first need to send the funds from The Netherlands to Malta tothen send them on to you. This whole process has taken much longer thanwe originally anticipatedRest assured you wire will be included in next weeks batch of paymentsfrom Malta which will be processed next Thursday 28th August. Pleaseallow 4-5 working days for the funds to credit your account. Can youemail us to confirm once you have received the funds. If you have anyfurther queries please do not hesitate to contact us.Best regards,Tom Link to post Share on other sites
