So annoying... really wanna play on there, but as I don't have a bank account solely in my name, they won't allow it
I realise I'm not allowed to ask for money exchanges on here.... but if someone was kind enough to donate $20 or so to my Party account... which is yout_1985 ....Then I would be kind enough to donate to their PokerStars account...

Lol Skp
The withdrawing issue did cross my mind.... but worse case scenario I can just get a cheque sent out in my name and pay a little charge to cash it.... so it's fine.

Good luck at the tables yout! I might see you there if you plan on playing some DoN's, I think I'm gonna give them a go, I had quite a good run with those about a year ago!
Oh, and withdrawing isn't an issue as long as you have a skrill account. They charge a 3% fee so it's not to terrible.

I think it's kind of terrible; that's $30 for every $1000 you withdraw... Better choose one of the other options. You also get slapped with a currency conversion fee, if you withdraw to another currency; that's another 2-5%. The other day I used Entropay to cash out $950, thinking it was $2.50 per cashout. Not only did they transfer 2 times half the amount, charging the fee twice, but entropay charges an additional 1.95% for topping up your virtual credit card... Why so much? It cost me almost $25, just to withdraw. Now I must somehow convert to EUR, which might cost me an additional 2-5%...
These fees really add up, and affect your overall return; think how much higher your ROI must be to compensate for this. The huge rake is difficult enough to beat, these additional charges are another hit to your overall profitability...
I think it's the principle of the thing. Overcharging you for services. It's almost pure profit, without much effort on the part of the service provider, apart from the initial cost, and some maintenance...
B.t.w. skrill used to be free, not too long ago...

Maybe you should have checked first, if you can actually withdraw money. The cheque you are saying i think its the worst way of cashing out, in any site. They have big fees not to mention high minimums ad takes while to get your hands on it. Anyway good luck.

The best way to cash out at Party Poker is Electronic Transfer no fees only funds conversion that is approx. the same rate as you would gert to your bank.I made one this way and very satisfied.

I'll only cashout if I get to megabucks on there... so a fee (while obviously not nice) won't be the end of the world...
Just remembered I do have a Skrill account anyway, so I'll use that
Only really wanted to play on here again for the missions - I really like anything like this, so I'm working my way through them.

And that's it so far....
Oh and my bankroll has jumped from $25 to $57.86 while doing it
