I've seen a few people talk about withdrawls and such, i'm doing a withdrawal now so i figured i would give u guys the info on what happens/how long it takes and stuff. I'm doing an electronic withdrawal (costs $30) to my bank account thru the GREEK.

I initiated it today (1/6) around noon mountain time, they said they couldn't process it until tomorrow, then they said it should take 2-5 business days. The money has been taken off my balance at the GREEK, so the ball is rollin. We shall see what happens, if anybody is interested, i'll keep u informed.

    thanks for the Greek info.....they told me I can 't get a withdrawal unless I fax them identity proof...
    utility bill etc....they told me they need that for the control gaming board? nonsense...I will not fax
    them such info...and will just make my bets here in Vegas. Going through a hassle to get your
    own money back is bs....also this is why I no longer will pay services for their selections and Ed
    is by far the best....because I can't get my money out of the sportsbook with all that fax info....
    Sure play games...get lucky ...win some money....and they make it difficult for withdrawals...bs...so knock em dead Ed...but now you know why I didnt renew...u are the best

    A guy told me yesterday that someone he knows cashed out my from a poker site through a paper check, and the guy got charges brought against him for illegal gambling. I have always used electronic banking, have you heard of anything like this?

    hey vseader...couldnt you just continue paying for ed's picks and play them there in vegas?? seems like the best way to go or do they somehow block/stall his plays as well? ive never been to vegas so i dont know how things go there but that would seem to be the best option wouldnt it?

    I have always used E-check on Pokerstars, now they just put my last withdrawal back into my account and said they are not able to use that method at this time. I have never had to get a paper check and I'm worried to try it. They were letting me go to Moneygram for free for a while as long as i cashed more than $500 out. Hope they get it fixed soon cuz im not sure what else to do.

    I think we can still play cards and gamble online. What we cant do IMO is expect the money to get to us very easily or quickly. If it does..great. I recieve checks snail mail, it takes about 5 weeks. I have factored it in now and does not bother me as much. I still miss pinnacle and the netteller bonus whoring days......

    wow, i am amazed. wire transfer is already in after 1 day! 5$ wire fee, 30$ fee from the greek to do the transfer is all it cost. kudos to the greek, i don't know what they were talking about with the 2-5 days but everything worked perfectly.
