Hmmm My friend had their account locked maybe yours is locked also so say you want the 80-90 $ transfered to another account they will do this for you. Then have that person cashout the money to a ewallet or something for you to deposit onto another site. This will work i hope for you its work for a firend of mine. She told them to transfer the money to me and then I took that money cashed it out and sent it to her.
Unless you won this money after you depositted that $100, then it probally wont work. But its worth a try Sol.

I didn´t quite understand what happened, but it seems that you ended up playing with $100 free? Is that what happened? The money was supposed to go into Poker Stars account but it was held up?

I had the same thing happen to me but I had $700 in there already do no big problem. I emailed them and someone said "I have reviewed your account and have now removed the eCheck deposit restriction placed on your account." I didn't even know they put the restriction on..I won't try echecks again

i hear this a lot at pokerstars where people deposit and the money is instantly in there account, what they dont realise is that although the cash is there the funds havent actually cleared and if the deposit ends up " bouncing " the account and funds are locked until they confirm the deposit. It happend to a friend of mine and thats what support told him.

why we are on the subject of locked accounts, i only opened my money bookers account the other day, and have had my $50 mob points cash sent there. its arrived and is visable on my balance, yet moneybookers say my account is locked untill i receive a leter from them with a 6 digit verification code did everyone who has a moneybookers account have to do this

Yes Danny I when i first signed up at moneybookers, I saw a tab that said verify your address. I hit it and they sent me a letter with the numbers on it. I put the numbers on my acct and it said address verified. I live in the US and received the letter in 4 days. So dont worry it wont take long.
