Good news—we’re doing away with withdrawal fees! It’s all part of our Poker for the People mission to improve the partypoker experience for our players.
What does this mean for you?
As of today no fees will be charged for withdrawals on Visa, Mastercard, bank wire transactions Kalixa Pay, goplay prepaid, MasterCard and PayPal. However note that withdrawals made via Skrill, WebMoney and NetEller will still incur standard fees.

Had a simmilar e-mail in my inbox. Very strange. Can't remember any withdrawal fees, and Skrill and Neteller my usual destinations for a cashout. But i have not been to active on Party in the last few years. Maybe they changed something after the merger with bwin.

Did not get that email but it would be nice because they closed there activity at Portugal so we must cash out by the looks of it it seems at least to me that Bwin/Partypoker is not planing to apply for a license do better safe then sorrow

I remember back in the day when we were able to play at party poker about fees. I believe it was the site with most fees. If you have a remaining balance in your account probably you wont even notice when withdrawing the money. you get the whole sum and charging the fee on remaining. If you go for the whole amount, probably you will notice

Oh the games people play with your minds, especially when you don't even realise that they have done it!
PartyPoker have always (as far as I can recall from my experience) charged for withdrawals, a charge that isn't well publicised and one that gets lost to much extent in conversion of currency. Fear not you will have been charged, however this will no longer happen in most cases and will save us all a pretty penny!

Yeah they are making people deposit more it is more like they want more people to deposit their money and lose them rather than letting them cashout because the majority of pro have skirll and neteller and with fees on them they are like putting a collar on them and it just end up getting more money for them as skrill and neteller also has the highest cashout i think, anyway good luck there have fun if you can lol!

I think it is a joke that we have to pay any fees to withdraw money or even worse on conversion fees.As a business it is their job to pay winnings,it is not an extra service.Sometimes it feels like casinos or poker rooms think they are doing us a favour by letting us withdraw.

Of cause they do. At least a lot of the casinos. So one should be very cautious where to deposit. A lot of those outfits are based in legislations, where it will be difficult to get the money back.
