    What banks allow you to send your own bank wires online??
    Going to the brick-and-mortar location every time I want to send a wire is getting frustrating. I got helped by a kid fresh out of college last week and he completely bungled it.

    I know Citibank does it if you run it through your "business checking," which is no problem. I'm looking for other banks like this that probably don't offer it with the normal 'free personal checking' service but have it available for business/VIP customers, even if it costs extra.

    Thanks for any help.

    I am looking for something like this as well, as I would like to deposit at a book and it's the only option available to me. A little off-topic, but how do you go about requesting a bank wire when you go to the actual bank? Do they care if you send it to a sportsbook?

      Ive deposited multiple times using BkofAma. Dont you just need the info to where its going? Also dont sportsbooks allow you to do bank wire transfer by just entering your account number and routing number?

        Chase offers this for free to many if not all regular account holders. I mean, you pay for a wire ($20-$25 domestic, $40 international) but the account itself is free.

          Bank wires a very common, and unless you're moving serious cash, the people at the bank most likely won't even flinch. If they casually ask about it to make conversation, just tell them you are ordering some specialized motorcycle parts and it would cost you twice as much to buy them here.

          To answer your second question, you're not sending the wire to a sportsbook, you're sending to an intermediary that doesn't have the word "sports" or "book" or anything like that in the receiver information.

          Bank wires are easy, but the problem is the bank tellers, who are usually not much more intelligent than the average Walmart ** agent. Just like at Walmart, you have to double check everything they type in, because if a single letter or number is wrong, it will screw up the entire transaction and you'll spend a week or more sorting it out.

              I don't do bank wires for gambing. Too easy to trace.

                  Between $1,500-$6,000 per deposit. How long does an e c h e c k take from the moment you begin the process to the moment funds are in your account?

                  I'm so damn spoiled on ** and ** because you can be done, start to finish, and making bets in 2 hours flat. But I'm afraid i'll get banned if I become any better friends with the ladies at walmart, and it's hard to send more than 1500-2000 at a time.

                    Most books let you use a different name than yours to send money. And There are a ton of ** and ** locations you dont need to use the same one.

                      bank wire is your only option if you are looking to deposit that much cash, echecks are usually much less

                          1. I'm not gonna play around with using fake sender names, i'd hate to get left holding the bag if something went wrong.
                          2. My post may been a little confusing, it's not the actual walmart ladies i'm worried about, it's my total dollars sent via ** and ** over the past couple years that is sure to draw attention sooner or later. Even if you use a different ** location each time, all the info is still right there in their main system.

                                          I will look into it and report back tomorrow . like I said earlier , I can understand if it is not available to all free personal checking accounts, so I will find out what type of accounts qualify for this , if any. and I agree , I will be giving 50 points to jj if this actually works !
