Trying to figure out how to get my money out. FAQ says you can still login for administrative purposes, but it won't let you. Trying to find a phone number or email...-

Last weekend I heard a rumor that they wouldn't be taking US players any longer. When did they make the announcement? I guess some rumors do turn out to be true...

You guys should just read their website . Under Help/FAQ.
Log into the cashier from their website. You are going to need to send them ID (and CC copies if u deposited with one) if you want to cash out, and the only way to do that is via bank wire .

I sent them my ID, I'll post here if they find this sufficient.

I believe it was announced on Jan 31st late afternoon.
I've contacted CS via phone and because my credit union clears through a 2nd credit union, I couldn't use their online form. They advised me to email the necessary info to them. My initial impression is the money will be wired without a problem, they said within about a week.
I was really hoping to play the 100K a few more times.

I don't want to salt any wounds, but any american playing obscure poker rooms right now, may want to consider moving to the big three or four. Stars, Full tilt, AP or Ultimatebet. Your'e just playing with fire right now. Alot of these rooms have no power to tell USA no. they will fold up and hold as much money as they can, until soembody stops the American government. Then they will all be begging for your business again after treating you all like dirt. Get organized. Get your money into a safer place. either an account, a reputable site or yor pocket. Leave the little rooms now.

I think my 'i dont like stars much' attitude is well known, but i totally agree with this. I dont think i can stress how much.

UPDATE
Sent all info for wire tranfer one week ago. They said it would take 5 business days. Called today and they said it would be another week because of high volume, blahblahblah.
Still hopeful, I had too much money there...anyone want to post about a successful withdrawal from Mansion to cheer me up?

Sorry, update time
On Wednesday I emailed them after sending in my DL on Friday, and they said that was good enough verification and I withdrew my whopping $120 
I'll post again when money hits the bank

Update: even after confirming with a bank manager the wiring details, the transfer rejected. Probably becuase it is thru a credit union and had to go through another credit union first. I've got another account with Citi, gonna try that one now. Been one month since I requested the withdrawal

FInally the transfer went thru and I have my money minus what I guess is a $25 wire fee, I guess.
What a relief.
