    FYI-

    If your looking to get money off stars and it is between $500.00 and $2500 cashrefund seems like a good choice at the moment. It is basically a wire service that uses moneygram. Had no idea about it until i was snooping around on stars. Saw there was a cashout location in my area and fired away. It is for withdrawls only I believe however between the amounts listed above. Only takes 3-4 days to process. They shoot you a email with a reference number and a name and then you go to your location to pick up your funds with that info. No fees either.

    Seems like a good alternative for withdrawls given the echeck backlog

    Came in 13th in the Nightly Hundred Grand last night so I'm takin a lil chunk o that out.

    Congrats on the score.

    I am curious as to see how your withdrawl goes as well.

    Hey woo, I did some snooping myself and I could not find that cashout method. I would REALLY like to try this option so please tell me where you found it and you would be my hero.

    Glad to see the echecks are finally starting to go through again. Poker stars rocks. When they screw up, they fix it within a week. I just tried cashrefun, I'll let you know how it goes.

    the withdrawl HAS to be between 500 and 2500 to allow the option to show itself. If you enter a number outside of that range it won't show. Hope that helps.

    Just a update for those curious.....I got a email already (took about 9 hours from my initial cashout from pstars!) from moneygram with a reference number and reference name needed to withdraw monies. This is excellent!

    Is there a link to a website so that I can check if there is any locations in my area? I don't want to actually make a withdrawl, just want to see if this is a feasible option for me.
