I heard that 888poker had some problems with withdrawals but now when you say that I can join 888poker without being afraid about my money back

I've been playing at 888poker for about 10 years now, and it's always been the same, they don't cash you out for 3 business days, because their giving you some time to change your mind and reverse the cashout. so if you cashed out on the 19th friday it will be processed late tuesday or early wednesday.

That happened to me before I quit 888. Withdraw $100 and made me wait and when I lost my last tiny spare bit of bankroll I had to kept tapping into that. Crafty site.

I think they do not / they cant give your money on week days. 19 was friday. Weel i did not cash out from 888poker yet, so i dont know. I didnt saw moneybookers on deposit too. I dont have at deposit, or withdraw. Dont know why. I got Visa, Neteller ( but i dont want to deposit/withdraw via neteller ) and a few more. When i made a request to withdraw from WinnerPoker on Friday, i got the money Monday.
Posted by pochui: clearly blokes find it very hard to part with what they consider is "their money"...whenever you attempt to cashout- people that handle withdrawals are just plain shocked to see that you have anything left to withdraw...so they have to double/triple check the situation with the "rigged operations management team"...to see if they have missed something...
Pochui........ Man you are so on the ball with this comment. Its so funny its probably true. How has the site (whichever one it may be at any given time) allowed a player to be in positive equity? it must be so amazing that they have to get their wives to OK it!
The only flaw in your argument is that he is cashing out less than he deposited, so he isn't actually in positive equity.

I don't understand exactly what this phrase 'Takes the piss' means. It has a rather negative sounding tone to it,...not that I care about any political correctness as evidenced by any of my past scribblings,...but I'm thinking that because a lot of folks have problems with 888,....that it's exactly that...
Is it kind of like this sketch below depicts...? 888 being buddy on his back...?

I agree 3 days for a Skrill payment is s**t, it can be done straight away if 888 got of there lazy asses and processed your withdrawal

Posted by demodawggy: Maybe it's because the longer they have your money,...the more interest it gathers for them...
I'm sure they don't keep everybody's cash in a box in a wall safe in their office,...but rather a finacial institution, where they are paid a very small amount of interest. That small amount multiplied by thousands of clients with millions of dollars sure adds up....
I could be wrong,.... I'm just going by lawyers trust accounts where they keep clients money. The law society gets the interest unless otherwise requested by the client... and the lawyer won't say anything unless you ask about it...
No your right.. would just thumb up your comment but apparently i'm not enough of a Mobster to be able to do that
