echeck?

[irish620]

I have quite a bit of money on apsolute poker and would like to know how an echeck works sense that seems like the way I would like to do it sense they took away the check in the mail. The only problem is i dont know how a echeck works so I was wondering if anyone has tried this yet for a withdraw method or how it would work for withdrawing funds.

Another option is ewalletexpress but that place rips you off because whatever you withdraw you have to pay 10% on. GOOD GRIEF as if we as poker players havent already paid enough in rake!

Any help would be great thanks and gl at the tables!

I haven't tried E-check at Absolute, but I use it at PokerStars, and I'm guessing it will be pretty much the same. You have to give them a bank account number, a routing number for that account, and your social security number. They should already have all your other info, such as address and phone number. Then, after they verify the info, any request for deposit or withdrawal is done by electronic transfer into or out of your bank account. At PStars, if your account is in good standing, they give you immediate credit for a deposit to your poker account, even though the money usually doesn't get deducted from your bank account for several days. The same is true for a withdrawal. It takes a few days for the money to show up in your bank account after it is deducted from your poker account. If you trust the poker site, it's a great way to handle your money, and it doesn't cost you anything.

I just looked at Absolute and it still has the option for mail by check on my end.

I've got check by mail for Deposits at AP but only echeck, eWalletXpress, Bank Wire ($50 fee), and UseMyWallet for Withdrawals.

Under select a Payout Method I have the following....

eCheck
Check by mail
Check by courier
WU money transfer
EWalletExpress
BankWire
UseMyWallet

mmm Well I used to have the option to use check by mail but not anymore I have just as TOG has it so I guess the first thing ill do is send apsolute an email first an ask them why its not an option anymore. Maybe it's because I used check by mail before and they don't want me to do it again hah so maybe i wont withdraw. Well thanks for the help it is much appreciated.
