God these threads are tilting. Where do u ppl get ur info. I've never seen any bank come out with a statement like this. Post a link or stop saying shit like this.

And if they're making statements like that now they wouldn't be accepting them now. So if you aren't having any major probs with your bank now nothing is likely to change on DEc 1 as all of the security measures have already been put in place.

it really is tilting because I have a huge decision regarding withdrawing. I feel like these threads cause people to panic, including myself (poker is my only income). Not only do these unbacked claims screw with peoples heads, they are detrimental to the growth of online poker.

So plz GTFO unless you can back your ish up

This is an uniformed statement and should be ignored. imo

It tilts me that people are still ignorant enough on this issue to not know that the status quo is changing or that there are federal regulations that go in effect on December 1, 2009 that are intended to implement the intended purpose of the UIGEA.

Do not mistake this post for a "sky is falling" post,(this means you can save your knee jerk keystrokes), but many of us who can read and understand bank notices and federal regulations do understand that things are and will be different.

I am so happy for those of you who have not been notified of changes by your bank, but that hardly makes those of who have been notified less informed or scaremongers. It is a fact of life that some of us have to deal with.

It also tilts me that some of you are so uninformed that if something doesn't hit you directly in the face it must not be happening.

Finally, the search feature is your friend on issues like this. There has been much useful discussion and factual information provided, in fact there is an excellent recent thread started by Jennifear on this subject.

Yo man, you've completely misrepresented what I said. My rant was that I am sick of ppl making random claims that they have no backing for.

The fact of the matter is that this law has been passed for some time, dec 1 only means that the now MUST be complient with the law-which by the way-only limits payments TO a gaming site, not viceversa. That's actually the law.

So if you bank understands the law then you ought not worry about getting your payments. If they don't you could always choose to bank else.

And, imo, even under the very worst of conditions, (ie all bank IMMEDIATELY reject wires, cks, echks, etc,) it is likely the sites would purchase money orders and fed ex them.

So yeah, am I happy about the way things are headed, not particularly. Am I worried that I'd never be able to access the funds in my acct after 12-1, not really.
