Thanks again for making an appearance to respond, ( which is more than many others ) this makes Dreampoker ( in my book ) the place to play.
When a site takes their time to respond................. WE MATTER ~
PS.. In the future, keep us well informed ahead of time via emails or whatever means you choose.

I'd really like to know how they're going to get money to their US customers. There isn't a bank in the world that will send out a check or send a wire transfer originating from a casino / poker room right now. I sure hope they're not planning to wait until this settles down a bit.

I'll make a guarantee myself. They won't see another penny from me until they have a withdraw method for US players in place. For them to continue to accept deposits from USA players without notifying them that they have no means to withdraw any winnings for an unknown timeframe is still unacceptable.

I won't post the email I received from my contact at Dream, but I will quote a sentence from it:

Quote:
Please be advised that we are currently working on a legal withdrawal method for US players but at the moment it is not looking good.
I respect their contact coming to the board and posting, and I understand they're doing the best they can; but for the moment all it is is lip service. Let's be realistic here. How do they plan on getting USA players their money? Tape the bills to a courier pigeon?


Conrad: Please answer this one...

Bodog sent me a Western Union transfer of $1,000 within a matter of hours after my WD request. Why can't Dream use this method? I believe other poker rooms offer this service as well.

I just find it hard to understand that Dream can be this worried about the UIGEA while other Poker rooms and casinos aren't. It's business as usual for Full Tilt, Bodog, Poker Stars, etc, etc. If you're that afraid of the DoJ, then just drop us USA players altogether and save everyone the hassel.
