Whatever, it will bounce.
Like an idiot I deposited it yesterday because Bank of the West in SLC said there was enough money in the account to cover it. I had hoped that if there was red flag on it they would have mentioned it on the phone. WTF
Dear (lojo),
Account number: gorxxxxxxxx
Please note that due to the recently imposed banking restrictions in
the USA, we regret to inform you our processing
bank has just notified us that all checks to the US have been stopped
with immediate effect, thus we will not be able
to refund any future withdrawals through checks.
Unfortunately, this new policy will also affect all your "not
cashed/drawn" check(s) as follows:
Name - Amount
Date - Jan 26 2007 4:07PM
Vegas Country Casino
We strongly advise you not to deposit it as no funds can be released
and you will only incur unnecessary charges.
Be advised that ALL outstanding checks are now invalid. Please note
that we shall not be held responsible for
any fees incurred, should you decide to withdraw any checks against our
advice.
We are currently working on a solution to be able to process all
pending withdrawals as soon as possible, and your patience
and understanding will be greatly appreciated in the meantime.
At the moment our U.S.A. players can choose to receive their funds in
the following ways:
- Through Click 2 Pay (for existing C2P consumers ONLY).
- Through EcoCard (if you do not hold an account with Ecocard, you can
register an account at
www.ecocard.com)
- By requesting their funds to be returned to their gaming account
Alternatively you can opt to keep any funds you may be expecting on
hold, until we find a suitable and efficient way to pay out winnings.
Let us conclude that for our Casinos "is business as usual" and we
trust that we will be able to offer to all our players alternative refund
methods as soon as possible and will keep you informed of any changes
as soon as they are available.
Kind Regards,
Eprocessing Services
on behalf of Vegas Country Casino

EDIT: Great, I reply to the email and what do I get?
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
I'm gonna bitch and moan for a minute. I emailed these guys days ago, never got a response. The check was dated the 26th, cover letter the 28th, and envelope was postmarked (in shop) the 29th. I got it from Michigan on the 7th, they send me an email after it arrived. I think they sat on it until the account was closed. I google mapped the address on the cover letter and it was an abandoned machinery dealer's warehouse in a suburb of Detroit, obviously a facade to process some moneys while they could. I'm just going to put it back in the casino and play some progressives, wtf. At least if I win millions I will have something important to bitch about. As I saw in another thread here somewhere yesterday, don't bother trying to cash any checks from Web Merchants, LLC drawn on Bank of the West in Salt Lake City. The guy at the bank should have known the check was no good, not just whether there was enough money in the account to cover it. I should have known it was no good, now I will pay fees. That's all my bitching and moaning, G'DAY!
Last edit: Go figger, huh? It took like 5 minutes to get it back into my casino account... hmmm Well now show me five kings on line 9!!!
