I would like to know how can I withdraw money from Fulltilt in the Philippines. I never did any deposits but just won a lot of ring game sessions. The options for withdrawal are Webmoney, Check or Visa. For my Visa I have EON UnionBank account but I'm not sure it would worked since I never made a deposit here yet. Are checks good options in the Philippines?

Like Smarietis said they would ask you for a deposit first probably. At least in order to cash out with Webmoney and Visa. I dont know if the same thing goes for cheque also. But have in mind that cheques take longer to arrive and have higher fees.
You can withdraw to your bank account even if you haven´t deposited before, however the personal details about the bank account owner have to be the same as the personal details on your full tilt account.

Posted by demodawggy: I had made a deposit into Full Tilt, then about 2 months later I tried to withdraw my cash to Skrill and they blocked it!!!
So what I did was transfer the money to my PokerStars account,....THEN withdrew the money to Skrill...
I just circumvented their b******t...
Give that a try if you are hooked up on PS and have deposited there before...
They probably blocked you coz you tried to withdraw more than u deposited without uploading documents Back to the initial subject here i also think that u have to deposit first before withdrawing no matter the method you choose.. anyway if in doubt you'll get a better answer if u ask their support directly. Usually they r quite fast answering questions related to money lol. Gl!

if you want a serious response then i guess only some dude from Philippines could come up with the more detailed info...i guess the best way to go here is to check the available options carefully for yourself- there's no rush to withdraw, ask some question from the support, once you find the best/cheapest/most reliable solution go for it.

try to contact pokerstars support they will be more helpful. But from my experience you need an ewallet, skrill or neteller, you can deposit with one of them and then you will be able to withdraw.
They do that for money regulation, so they know where to send money, otherwise people my use them to transfer illegally gained money using their software.

He doesnt have skrill and neteller as available options. The only ones are those described in the original post. Webmoney may be the faster one, but you never know. pochui is right, the best response will come from support.

I suggest you deposit 1000 php (aprox. $20) to your eon account (which is a visa) then use it to deposit on a neteller. Use the neteller to deposit in FT (neteller is a mastercard) then use it to withdraw your funds. deposit = eon>neteller>ft withdrawal = ft>neteller>eon I haven't tried this method though but I think this is the best way viable. This is how I planned to withdraw funds from my party poker too.

you cant withdraw unless you deposit or if you can link your Full tilt account to your pokerstars there you can withdraw it via Check!
i deposited on pokerstars via Entropay. and it worked fine with me and withdraw it via check. the sad thing is last year i was about to withdraw all my balances from full tilt and pokerstars to quit poker. they blocked my accounts saying that i violated the rule but they havent explained why lol and they wont let me play again! they said " continue your poker career elsewhere!" lol
------------ you can withdraw it via pokerstars with check it will take upto 7-15 business day to come but its cool.
