cant cash procyber check?

[amatrine]

Anyone having a problem with procyber service checks?

I no longer own an afiiliate site, but once in a while I still get a check from old players. This week I got one from procyber, and my bank just left a message on the phone that they are unable to cash the check, and I need to pick it up, or else they have to send it through some service, that takes 8 weeks, and charges 25 percent of the check.

The check is from korea drawn on a canadian bank. I cant even remember what casino used procyber.

ProcCyber is Microgaming Ama...but beyond that, it could be any one of many. How about cheque cashing places? I've cashed some pretty large cheques up here in the past, both from ProcCyber and other processors, and never had a problem. Of course, you have to pay the 2.9% fee or whatever they charge at your places. Still, 2.9 is a whole shitload better than 25%.

I have two banks. My new one compass wont cash it. So I will take it to my old one ( but I wonder if teh bank already stamped it) , as they do take overseas checks.

i almost feel like the cheque i got from nordica came from proccyber, and it went in okay, well far as i know it's not bounced yet. i used bank machine however so we'll see. definitely chequey no worky = sucky. cross fingers, knock on wood, and hail mary

Perhaps ProcCyber are now on the blacklist.

However, promoting to non-US players is not illegal, and they have no way of knowing that an affiliate payment relates to "illegal" or "legal" promotion. if it relates to non-US players, then the banks and the UIGEA have interfered with the conduct of LEGITIMATE international business activities.

Lets just hope they get so damn paranoid they start holding up loads of totally unrelated payments from abroad, and have non-gamblers up in arms, alongside many businesses whose cashflow will be harmed by these delays and rejections.

Since this check was drawn on a Canadian bank, it seems unlikely that there would be any other reason for this than the UIGEA "witchhunt".

Goddamn it - cant politicians just get out of our back yards already!!! I would tell your bank to take a long walk off a short pier and go to a cheque-cashing joint.

BTW Amatrine - do you still make a decent income from your existing players?

That was my point also Nifty. I got so sick of dealing with the banks and their 21 or 30 day holds that I just said "fuck it", and paid the 2.9% to cash the things.

The bank might be balking simply because it is considered a foreign check, and has to go "to collections".

The UIGEA gives a carte blanche to banks to reject any financial transaction they consider gambling related without any recourse by the customer, other than voting with his feet.

Yes, thats it, thats what they told me! This bank sucks. I only opened it when my bank had no swift code, and had mony stuck in a casino I needed, and needed swift for eco. I will go pick up the check today and take it to my credit union. When i have played at inet and got checks , they wer out of country and they credited it to my account as soon as I deposited it, no problem.

Once in a blue moon. When the US thing happened it stopped . I do get the ocasional check in the mail, from some bingo players. The one I just got is from referback, I think I have accussiton per player on that, so I will get 50 bucks here and there. Its a nice surprise to get them once in a while.

Fortune affiliates did me good a while, but then they closed my account with no explanation. I didnt even bother to ask, I sold my website before the new law. Got tired of dealing with not getting paid by some, etc..... and just said this isnt worth it.
