    Canada vs. U.S. payout times
    This is going to sound like a dumb/naive question to some, but I am very curious about the answer, and it strikes me that I have no idea what the answer is. All else equal, with the same withdrawal method, can Canadian residents get their money out faster than a similarly-situated US resident?

    Hypothetical:

    Player A is a U.S. resident, with a U.S. back account, and is playing with book B, which is some run-of-the-mill B-rated SBR book. They request a 5k bank wire transfer.

    Player C is a Canadian resident, with a Canadian bank account, and is playing at the same book. They request a 5k wire transfer to their bank account.

    Who, on average, gets their wire transfer first, and is it a significant difference?

    Payouts should be faster to Canada. Especially since they can use MoneyBookers.

    A sign of the health of a book imo is how fast they process payments outside the USA even if they are having processing issues in the USA.

    When bodog was having it's problems last summer and some people were flipping ot (dagger kobe) over never getting their money and them being broke,etc. They were still processing neteller/moneybookers and wires to the rest of the world the same day as requested. A pretty good sign they weren't anywhere near broke.

    Which of course makes the WSEX neteller delays very puzzling.

      Durito, thanks... you live outside the US -- do you get transfers, etc, to a Colombian (or other) account?

      How about a US resident using a Canadian bank account for a wire transfer? Assume name on account, address, everything matches their account info. Think this would be helpful?

        Colombian banks are the biggest mind **** in the world.

        I still bank in the USA and do most all my sportsbook deposit/withdrawals there.
