Hello, Yes, the time for withdraw is big, but they pay. I ussualy wait at least 5 working days. 3 for wait, and another 2-3 days after it say the money were paid.

I have no idea how much time they take to cash out players, which will make my post to this thread irrelevant, but a guy has to make them points somehow, so dont mind me nothing to see here, move along, i am just a daily points grinder, hard at work here But to calm your nerves teddy, i haven't heard a bad cashout story so far from 888

Be reassured teddy that 888 will pay out but usually it's eventually! It does take them some time, 5 days is pretty standard. I do not know why, other than of course the longer they keep your money, the more money they make out of it in terms of interest etc. Think about it...wouldn't you do that if you ran a business... Don't worry about keeping your customers sweet..... They'll just keep co I got back!

i trust in 888, they are one of the bigger rooms. i was just scared they dont like me or found something suspicious with my account. not that my account is a scam, but who knows, things like that can happen. like i said, im used to PS, they always paid me in a second.
depends on the business, damosk. now a days you have to be fast, on time etc to keep or gain custumer. i do not suggest 888poker to expand as a pizza delivery service anyways. it would be pretty bad for them

Depends on the business.
Pizza relys on being quick
Poker relies on having the biggest fish/profit margin

If the payout is guaranteed then its all good if there are small delays. I dont think this will affect their place in the market.
Of course anyone likes the cash outs that take a couple of minutes, but you also need more choices in sites. And they are pretty good. Besides what happened with the wheel and the WSOP ticket

Yes, 888 was not so fast like poker stars, but i had never a problem with withdraws there. 888 is one of the biggest online poker rooms and serious in my opinion. If you have a problem, you can contact the support, they answer verry fast.
unfortunately on pokestarz now have a new rule- money can be cashed out only after 48 hours after the deposit ... for me it is not very good ... I usually do when I win money at first quite a lot (ovelichivayu my expense money in 2-5) but .... then there is a black stripe and I lose everything ... the only chance for me to turn it off koipyuter after winning for 48 hours)))

I dont think it is the only site that has this rule. There are more sites out there, using it. It is not something bad after all. It is a security measure and a way trying to keep your money in so that you can gamble with it

I noticed that money withdrew to a bank account is credited at a random point of the day, not when balances are update at the start of the business day. This means withdrawals are processed manually, and therefore could be done immediately. After I enquired to 888 as to why they have a mandatory waiting period, my withdrawals have dramatically sped up. Still the 3 days before it's processed, but then always in my bank the 4th day.
Maybe they have a list of pains in the arses who they make sure to pay faster just to shut them up

I know plenty jokes teddy, the only problem is, when i translate them in english or german, they dont sound that funny but any how ill give it a try, this joke i tell it to my self when ever i need a laugh A guy complains to his doctor: Doc, why do i always have a headache before i have sex? Doctor:What do u do, before u have sex? The guy: Well, im blowing up the love doll... Heres another... A guy walks in to a chinese meat store, he`s looking around, and finds meat that he likes, but hes looking it for a long time, so the store clerk, sees this and ask him: Hello, can i be of any help? The guy: Yeah, i was wondering if the meat is fresh??? The clerk: I am very proud to say, it is very fresh,so fresh in fact, it was still barking this morning...
What horror... 5 days go money. For such large company - it is a shame. In my opinion they are so insured in case of some pecuniary losses. Would like, long ago have corrected such nonsense. And here if, 888 has problems with the law or something similar then also we as players of this website we will not be able quickly to return the money. This website with very bad policy in relation to the clients. Excuse for criticism, but this my opinion.

i also have a good blond joke Two blondines are eating at McDonald, and just b4 they take a bite out of the sandwich, the one asks the other: Do u want to put some, from this white catchup or the red one, i also heard the yellow one is pretty awesome too...
unfortunately on pokestarz now have a new rule- money can be cashed out only after 48 hours after the deposit ...
not new at all. always been that way.
no not always! maybe you just do not for a long time playing poker, but before the transfer of money was made virtually INSTANT and wait for 48 hours did not have to ...
