    They said bank wires take up to 10 days. Gonna wait and check later on. Not in a rush was just wondering if there's better methods to withdraw money faster as I might be withdrawing tonight .

    E-Wallets are pretty instant.

    If you're Canadian then E-Cheque is also super fast (along with E-wallets).

    I'm Canadian. Echecks Max withdrawal is $1500 that's the only reason I don't use them. Wires are usually great with pinnacle 3-4 days max . This is the only time it's taking this long . Pointless thread considering I'll most likely have the money in 12 hours..

    I'm Canadian as well. I use Insta-Debit with Pinnacle, 8000 max per transaction and money hits your account within 30mins.

    Have had a hard time finding in Toronto. I have 1 guy right now but small limits so still need to use Pinnacle. Had another last year but didn't have a pot to piss in and would take forever to get paid.

    I don't get why you would trust any local more than an online book.

    So much easier for a local to walk away when they are down.

    Last time we spoke here you said you were in Montreal.

    Many reliable locals here.

    I use 2 locals here, between the 2 of them they have been in the buisness for over 25 years, pay on Tuesday
    or get paid on Thursday.

    When i win... i get paid whatever my account says after Sunday nights games,no fees,no rollovers, no the line was bad,no having to request my money on Monday morning,no $500 max payouts,no bad checks,no lower limits when you win,no having to send I.D to Central America to collect,no CS agents i can't understand,no bullshit,however you must always be prepared to pay when you lose otherwise you may have a problem.

    That said i also do use Pinnacle,betfair, and will start with Heritage come CFB.

    heres why i trust my local more then online.

    Betislands,hollywood,wsex,cascade,oddsma ker etc etc.plus easier to run down a bad egg in my neighbourhood
    then in South America.

    It sounds like you have a good contact you can trust Al.

    But I'd bet dollars to donuts a lot more people have been left unpaid by locals than offshore overall.

    Al Masters you know is an experience bettor but I think what optional says more people get stiffed by locals than offshore shops

    They reassured me not to worry and to contact them after 10 business days. Pinnacle is good stuff so I won't be worried till about 14 business days then I'll start to think their bank made a mistake.

    E-Cheque is faster, and there's no $10 wire fee.
