If you are, how exactly are you depositing and cashing out?

I play there a lot. I don't deposit, can't help you there, Nucharge is not stable, although perhaps their problems are fixed now, I don't know. For cashouts, I just take a check, they're pretty good about sending them out, thought they do take 2 or 3 weeks sometimes.

i play at Bodog but obviously im not US. From what ive been told Bodog are reliable but super slow.
While AP is not endorsed att he moment, they were super reliable and quick at getting checks to people.
I get cheques from stasr and party very quickly as they are UK based, where as AP isnt yet i get my fedex package within 7days of withdrawing

zing how are you playing there if you didn't deposit? or did you just deposit with like neteller or something before the legislation and that's just where you keep your bankroll now?

ya has anyone used a gift card recently?

also, last time i got a check from Bodog (beginning of this year) it took my bank forever to process it. when the bank told me what they had to do with it and how long it would take i tried taking it to a cash advance place but they told me they couldn't do anything with checks dealing with online gambling (they asked what it was from and i told them thinking it wouldn't be a problem but it was). anyone know what else i could say the check was for if i were to ever cash out through check again and go back?

I just read here (Updated 9/19/07) http://www.thefeaturedtable.com/poker-deposits.html that Bodog takes instant checks (you have to call customer service and request the option). Apparently they do it in a way that US banks don't mind.

lol nice. well i just emailed Bodog and asked about their instant check option and they told me they no longer offer it. so hopefully a gift card still works.

another thing i noticed from Bodog's site...they accept ewalletxpress deposits from americans but that is not a withdrawal option. what kind of nonsense is that? you can't use the ewallet that you deposited with to withdraw with? that's retarded!

eric did you have to provide copies of id's when you deposited? Bodog's site says that one must fill out a credit card verification form, make an imprint of the card on the form by holding it underneath it and rubbing it with a pencil, provide copies of a picture id, the actual credit card, and one other piece of id (like a passport or credit card statement). jeez that's a lot of trouble! Bodog must not like people playing at their site i guess.

I don't think a Bodog thread is complete without someone asking for Bodog Rakeback, so here goes.

I am looking for Bodog Rakeback. I do not currently have an account with Bodog. am looking for a referral.

I asked our Bodog rep about this. Here is what he said:
Quote:
Presently US players can deposit on our site with a Visa or MasterCard, or by eWalletXpress – this option is cool because you can link your bank account to it.

In regards to receiving a payout, it’s only check by mail or check by courier. Some players have complained that other online books have more withdrawal options – which is sometimes true. What people don’t take into consideration is that Bodog is one of the biggest online gaming sites out there and we have an enormous amount of deposits and withdrawals to process every day. Therefore due to sheer volume our options are limited. That said, our eCommerce team is ALWAYS looking for new options, so more could be on their way.
