Okay Quick ? All help appreciated

Yeah if this is over the weekend and the check hasn't processed yet, I would do everything in my power to make sure that it goes through. Surely her husband would open it back up for $10k or whatever?

Is true, I liked the analogy of the car insurance.

I would be honest.

If she has gambled at other casinos, prove it and make sure you are no scammer trying to pull out a trick.

I would send a Western Union right away to show that I am an honest player, give up a $2k tip for the CS department or something and then stay as a loyal customer.

Weird story for me, and its quite a case.

What does this story leave us?? Use freaking Neteller, Moneybookers or W/U... no shit like that can happen with them

Fraud or no fraud, it doesn't necessarily matter.

Technically she did not deposit any money into the casino yet. So how can she claim winnings?

On the other hand, if she lost the casino would still want the money.

I think this comes down to if the casino is forgiving and if the player has made other legit deposits without passing bad checks, because like someone else said they have probably been scammed many times by other people not honoring deposits on closed or bogus accts.

This is an interesting thread and I will be curious to see what happens.

he can not contact them and tell them to let it clear, he closed the account. I thought the same thing about nedding both signatures . The credit union said that is not the case because he had the account prior to adding her to it. It was not opened as a joint account he added her to it after he had already had it.

If It was done via eCheck and there is money in the account. It will still clear whether its her name or her husband name or even Donald Duck's name is on the account. A problem will occur if there is no money in the account or the Husband has a stop payment on that specific transaction or all EFT transactions. Also note the winnings may also go back to that eCheck account that it was debited from. At some point she will have to deal with her husband on this issues. If there is no money in the account and the account is still active. She may have time to run down to the bank and make a cash deposit most eCheck takes a few business days to hit the bank account. Depending on the time of day you deposit. If for some reason that check doesn't clear you will certainly lose your winnings.

sorry, but I had a similar situation, where my check took way more than average time of clearing in my bank, and made me chargeback. They did not allow the funds with no question. but maybe her casino is more lenieant(sp) and i wish best of luck.

however what did she play to go up so big from 200....incredible

**silkprint** · 16th July 2006, 09:04 PM

If Lord have mercy is right then I suggest you run your fanny down to the bank as soon as they open Monday and get that money in there .

**pacers31** · 16th July 2006, 09:08 PM

Bad check, closed account, no way they are going to pay. Even if they did, where would they send the money to? She better get with her ex and get the account reopened and funded by Monday. If she can beat the bank and collect her 20K, who knows, maybe their "irreconcilable" differences can be overcome!LOL How would that be for an inspirational casino story, "CASINO X SAVED MY MARRIAGE" haha! Seriously, it is time for her to play beat the bank and get money in there ASAP or she is out of luck. It doesn't matter how honest a person is, it is fraud legally to write a check that funds are not available to cover, pure and simple. The law isn't necessarily fair, the law is just the law.

When she made the deposit her name was on the account and the check was good. Now this is where i am shocked, She requsted a withdrawl by check by courier not only are they proccessing it but the casino flushed it for her. My theory is the company that processes that casinos payout checks will interveine. Any opinions on this? The fact that they flushed it and it says work in progress does that mean anything?
