Thought it would be nice to consolidate all the questions in numerous threads concerning cashouts and deposits on the Merge network and Bodog. All my experiences have been post black friday.

Bodog.

Deposits-

1. Deposited with visa net*pend debit card got email from bodog saying it was declined but $ amount was debited from my accnt. 3 days later get email from bodog saying deposit was actually processed and my $ were credited to bodog account. They explained that they sometimes have trouble processing US cards because all transactions have to be run as credit.

Cashouts-

1. Requested cashout via check on bodog. Processed in a day and received the check 4 business days later, check cleared.

sent photo of id and utility bill to validate account took a couple days

Merge- (players only)

Deposits-

1. Deposited with mastercard credit- cleared and was in account instantly
2. Deposited with net*pend debit- cleared and was available instantly

Cashouts-

1. Check- ? havent tried to cashout with a check because of the wait time. Anyone successfully use this method?

If anyone else has info that im missing plz post it. thanks and good luck on the felt

Can't believe how fucking hard it is to get some money on Carbon Poker! WoW!

Visa-NOPE! Doesn't work
Click to Pay-NOPE! Doesn't work.
"Cash Transfer": Send money to a Spanish woman in Manila (I'm not joking) from a local brick and mortar location-Get the fuck outta here! What is this, the Nigerian money scam from the fucking wife of the former king!!

What a fucking pain in the ass! Business model: Piss off the people trying to give you their money! Come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the help..

thanks mod.....and yeah what is the diffence between usemywallett and a check?

usemywallet is an online account almost like neteller, mostly used for online casinos and sportsbooks, need to deposit a certain amount on a site before they let you use it, or already have an account

It's the cash transfer option.

Cash transfer will provide the details for a western union transfer. From there, follow the instructions and you can either use Visa/MC on the Western Union website or same options/cash at a local western union deposit location (depends on whether or not WU verifies your user info online. If they cant verify it online, you have to wait a few days or go to a local WU location -- there are tons of those around).

This thread is an excellent idea.

edit: Ted what is the check fee, if any, on Bodog?

Update regarding clearing the bonus (at least on Hero): getting $5 per $15 of tournament rake and cleared $5 per ~250-300 hands playing 6max 50NL.

Cashed out on both Carbon Poker and Bodog via usemywallet after black friday.

Funds hit usemywallet within 48 hours and hit my bank from usemywallet about one week later.

Funds are directly deposited into your bank account. Its an international transfer so you most likely will get a call from your bank confirming this transaction.

Cash out fee on usemywallet is 35 dollars so make it count.

Pretty seemless

Does anyone know if you are required to make a deposit onto Carbon Poker before cashing out? I've been playing the freerolls and don't plan on depositing but I won an $11 tournament ticket and was wondering how cashing out would work if I made some real money with it.

What method of cashout did you use?

HAS ANYONE HAD RECENT SUCESS CASHING OUT FROM CARBON POKER.....ALSO ANY REVIEWS ON BODOG OR DOYLES ROOM WILL BE APPRECIATED....TRYING TO DECIDED WHERE TO PLAY

nope, ive had a cashout from merge since the 15th and have had 0 response as to why or if I can even get my money. Fuck Lock, Fuck Merge. Also half the time I cant even see the blinds being posted in tournaments so I cant tell wtf the pot is or who has put money in, sometimes I cant see my holecards, Oh well guess its deal with it or quit.

Has anyone withdrew any money from Carbon Poker? if so did you have any troble doing it> (U.S players)

Everything is business as usual for me; check your settings/filters.

This appears to be the only option that will work for US players. I have failed on every other option.

Sending money via Western Union to a person in the Phiipines or Manila? GTFO!?!??! I feel my "sucker" alarm going off! Anyone done this and succeeded???

Pretty piss-poor looking option, even if it does work. Hard to imagine loads of people being comfortable with this.
