    Hi guys, I live in the UK and am wondering what the best option is for large-ish withdrawals on Full Tilt are ? Our options seem to be limited regarding transfers back to my prefered deposit option (Visa) as they only allow one transaction per day and a weekly limit of $5000 ??!?
    I e-mailed support@fulltilt.com regarding these options but only recieved a confirmation e-mail and then another e-mail - that was a copy of the original e-mail I sent them .... ugh !? (I will continue trying to contact them).
    I also see that there is an option for international / Local bank transfers and think this may be the best option? I just wondered if any other UK based players have used these , or any alternative options that they would recommend ? (I may try the bank wire option for a small amount first) does anyone know roughly how long these take ??
    Thanks in advance ,

    Hi..

    I use Neteller.com on Full Tilt, Its reasonibly quick, and safe.

    The only bad thing is that it charges you 5 for each withdrawal, so i leave it for a nice bulky one before i do withdrawal.

    Its easily the best option available to me.

    Yea i had to send them a copy of my passport and a bill, i just scanned it and sent through email, it was easily done and took no longer than 5 days.

    For us Brits i think Neteller is the best way on FTP, so i got that little bit of hassle out of the way and now i can use it for how much i want and when i want.

    I always use cheques to cash out. They take 5-7 days to arrive after you request them and my Natwest takes 4-5 days to cash them because there an international cheque. Natwest charge me 5ish to cash them too because there international. Hope this helps.

    I did use Neteller but now I use the local bank transfer option. Usually approved within 24 hours and in my bank account within 2-3 working days with no fees & good exchange rate.

    Neteller pretty good, allows you to keep poker money seperate from bank accounts but still safe and accounted for.

    Thanks for the input guys, I got a little further with Full Tilt's support (still nowhere near as good as stars) but they answered a few of my queries.
    I have done an experimental withdrawal using the bank wire option and will see how efficient it is, Tilt assures me it's a good service and if indeed it takes only the standard 3-5 days then it could be very good.
    Spraggs is however right, it looks like i'm going to have to digital photograph/scan - send a photograph (lock up your daughters) :P and a bank statement/utility bill to re-activate my neteller account as it is a very useful tool with regards to Tilt. Just the type of little hassly things I hate but long term I suppose it's a requirement :(

    Thanks again , holly17/Royd_Ze

    p.s. Stay outta my Sng's plz Spraggs, you know it's -EV for you anyway :P
