Has anyone stopped because....

[GGW Laurie]

i have slowed down due to personal reasons(family medical reasons) and with how the economy is going , its better to put that money back for a rainy day and or feed the family instead of the casinos, i still play but nowhere like i used to and im content with that, never was a problem getting my money or depositing, just i needed to slow down (alot), but you can still have fun low rolling on smaller deposits and so far its been fun.........laurie

Hmm... A pretty obvious point really, as for me this is one of the main reasons I do not wager large amounts online anymore. Loving to gamble, and having problem to stop sometimes being able to cash out quick is really the only way to have some sort of control. Say I deposit $500 and after a while I get back to $500 - what's the reason withdrawing at all since you have to wait a week?

This means I am the perfect customer, since I need to win atleast $1000 to even consider withdrawal. If I could do instant cashouts with Visa I would sure wager much more online - however I do not think the industry is interested in this since this fact is probably one of the reasons they make so much money. People like me try to catch the losses, and reversals are truly eval!

So yes - maby not the only reason - but surely one of the top ones!

I haven't stopped and have been doing pretty well. No problem depositting and as far as it taking too long for a cash out. If the casino is not one to do an overnight withdrawal (ie: inetbet) then I request that they flush my account (regardless of how small my win is.. cause I will cash out as low as $50 to quicktender if I don't see a positive session at a casino).
So far when I request a casino flush my account it is usually in my quicktender within 24 hours of my request.

I've tried in the past to get them to flush my account and everytime I talked to a rep they told me it would be impossible...how do you get them..are you a past high roller?

...and haven't been back since. Obviously I miss it or I wouldn't bother reading this forum or posting occasionally. I may in the future seriously consider it again but right now after reading the gyrations that US folks have to go thru to deposit, fees charged, etc., it's just not worth the effort.

I will confess that the Indian casino across the border in Oklahoma has seen me a little more than before... I just love 3 card poker But trips about every six-eight weeks.

I never really had problems with depositing or getting paid. Still, I've drastically cut down my play especially with Microgaming casinos because they definitely changed the game for me because I won too much from them. I guess I'm waiting for the day when all the other online casinos that pulled out of US come back or for the US land-based casinos to put out their online versions.

No! I'm no where near a high roller and never have been! (I wish...lol)
All you have to do is write to support or the casino manager and I believe they are required to honor your request. (I always have to write to Fortune lounge to flush my account.) Inetbet it's not even needed.. it's always there the next day.
But I am talking about withdrawals to QT. I have not yet been fortunate enough to win a large amount from fortune lounge (yes..pun intended!).. I have faith that my day is coming soon though!

But my deposits are alot less than before also. I used to deposit alot at 3dice but since I only play tourneys there now I have noticed that I have alot more play time everyplace else on small deposits!

I haven't played since sept 19th. except for a free $40 chip which didn't last too long. I didn't deposit anything after that was gone.

Waiting 2-3 months for payment is ridiculous! I wont wait longer than a week.
But I absoultely love playing - better than other forms of relaxation for me

I have my cashouts at Club World and Slotocash flushed too. Villento is the only MG I play at and they don't flush but they pay within 48 hrs. except on weekends.

I think what you have to do if you are in the US is play at casinos that pay quickly. There are quite a few left for us that are reputable. Have to be an informed player now both about depositing and withdrawals.
