Merge sites(Carbon etc.) takes around 6 weeks,, but once it has been approved it arrives in a few days via FedEx for me here in Texas. Just got a check from Hero, another Merge site , about a month ago. now, I have had two checks bounce. Both were right after the first of the year in 2011 and 2012. Merge later sent replacement checks. These checks are drawn on a third party on a Canada bank. I figure being right after the first of the year they were in the middle of changing the 3rd party. So now I just deposit them in my account at my bank and leave enough cash in my account in case they come back Hope this helps,, Take care

I got a US friend that withdrawn from Carbon Poker, took him 24 hours to get it withdrawn, to be honest that's really slow, 6 weeks when EU can get up to 72 hours.

Don't cancell and start over.. if they need more info they'll let you know. Takes too long I agree.. but we here in the USA don't have to many choices.

Did he withdraw other than a check ?

It takes about a month (4 weeks) to get approved for a check. Then about another week or 2 to get the check in the mail.

Got mine last month, if I remember right 1 day short of 7 weeks. When you get that approved message, it is with that week, but it sure is dang hard waiting without so much a peep the first 6 weeks.

I cant ever remember a check going very fast threw any merge.
Checks are the only way i withdraw and always has been, that said every time I request 1 from a merge site its at least a 5 week deal, a few a little longer , also they are always drawn on a Canadian bank like mentioned above, beware of the date the # version on the check will be in different order with the year being first I believe 07/04/2012 = 12/04/07 ...no big deal, but mite catch you off guard

For me cashout ion carbon poker are very fast in moneybookers 1 -3 days but i dont get it why is take so long time for Us people

If you are in the US you can figure 5 to 8 weeks before you get your check.i have had a couple withdrawals so far and that"s how long it took for me to get mine but both checks were ok when i got them cashed.

The deadline for checking your account is on average one week after you submit the requested documents (scanned copy of your personal document, and the completed form).
After verification by NETELLER withdrawals are approved for a maximum of 48 hours, withdrawals in check I do not know, but after checking your account should not take that long ...

I guess I have to ask him again about this, maybe it was 5 days or it was just my imagination. I try ask him tommorow when he turn online.
I know he withdrawn with something else.

You are not US so it can take up to 72 hours, ah right it's not call Moneybookers anymore it's Skrill now, just want to let you know.

Well i never have enough money to withdraw anyways, but glad you have enough to withdraw

Everybody outside of the US says that it seems to be fine...It's only the US players that are struggling with the cashouts...

It took my just under 4 weeks to get my check, it comes from Canada and Im having problems cashing it i donmt have bank account no check cashing places take it

Carbon poker has their own forum. You can go there and post your question to get an answer from people that deal directly with Carbon.

Open a savings account with $10. Then deposit check using ATM.

Takes 6 weeks for us players and make sure to have a banking account. its hard to cash them at a check cash i dont even think walmart will cash them

thats fn brilliant idea i tought about using check as a way of open account but shit thats smart

I have too many friends who are not allowed to open a checking account. So they erroneously believe they cannot have a bank. I let them know to quit asking for
a checking account. Hence I stated in post above to open a savings account.
Many banks do not allow a check from a foreign country to be used to open a
savings account.

First time I withdrew from Carbon it took about 3 weeks to get all the authentications through their system. Withdrawals after that have always gone through in a couple of days.
