nah mate my banks helping me spent 2hrs there this morning trying to fax them, but the numbers they gave wont answer they ring out. these pricks wont do anything about it, there processors holding onto it as the aussie dollar weekens they make money what really pisses me off is that pstars are accusing me of lying saying they have paid me, pigs arse they have they sux shame too i used to like stars. today tonight are going to run a story about it on national tv and pay me 5 figures for the dirt. stars should take this serioslly as i dont like being ripped off $1270 aud and being accused a liar and theif

considering we are in the 21st century, transactions should be alot quicker. originally i asked 4 cash on the 27/7, had to wait 48hrs before i could even ask, then another 72hrs after they let me request pay out. so on the 1/8 received email confirming cash out stipulating 3/10 business days times up no cash. worst thing is i put my faith in pstars and arranged a little trip away with my winnings for my sons 5th bday used other money to pay 4 accomadation, now i cant afford the gas to get there, my misses thinks i am an idiot 4 wasting time and money playing poker, have you ever told a 5yr old that ther bday holiday to sea world is off because stars wont pay. they are saying on monday it will be there. anyone want a bet worst thing with the olympics on i would turn that money into anything. bolt 4 the mens 100m, was paying 4.75 at IAS

Maybe it is 3-10 business days, hopefully. I heard a lot of stuff about poker stars but never found a thread where someone said this thing happened. Pokerstars is probably the only site that wont let you make a deposit if they suspect something about your account. It is a bad thing that this affected birthday.

I feel sorry for you and your son, but prdobar can be right they mostly use business days and if that's true it will be there on monday ! I hope you can take your son on the trip.
