have a check Fed-exed to you, deposit in the atm. wait a week for it clear. DONE

thanks for the advice. so, atm my bank account doesn&#x27;t have cashing in checks through the atm as an option for cashing in checks through atm, so a new account or just making that an option on my current account, but depositing such a larger amount to an account i have not used in a while won&#x27;t be an issue? ( im in canada btw, if it matters.)

WHO DEPOSITS A LARGE CHECK BY ATM ????

Walter_Sobchak · Answer

someone that doesn&#x27;t want the awkward moment of handing some foreign check to the teller that you know personally.

aleem15 · Answer

Western Union does seem easier and less of a hassle but the fee is crazy.

Never deposited a check from withdrawal into my bank account before so not sure if there are any complications or questions or anything to worry about since I have not used this account in a while.

Again, any advice would be great!

Thanks a lot!

yes westernuinion is best way still your going to need id when picking up the money because it's over $1000

now do your self a big favor get WU debit card

every book will honor that send funds cheapear collect funds cheaper it's like having a checking account so the books can transfer your money directly on the card faster eloctronically without all the hassle of getting that MTCN every time !

THE fees are because of using a teeler the paper work involved signing the documents and everything else !

ONCE they have your WU card on file it's like minutes to send and get payouts instead of HOURS waiting to receive your money !

Rockdog · Answer

What is the maximum amount per transaction you can request for a check payout? and what is the fee?

aleem15 · Answer

By the Western Union Debit card.. do you mean like the Prepaid MasterCard....such as the Titanium Plus card...or is this something different ?

Was actually going to request a similar withdrawal this week, possibly tomorrow. So if you could get back to me asap, I would really appreciate it!

Thanks!

aleem15 · Answer

Rockdog: For Western Union....it is 2500. At least that&#x27;s what I was told. and the fee was almost 250$ Which is insane but yeah. lol

jweisz · Answer

checks are the way to go as long as you just deposit them and shut up. I wouldn't say what they are for just tell the teller that you are receiving a commission for some work you did for the company sending you the check. The atm works too though. It's the easiest payout method. I don't understand why some people would have hassles with checks. In the event of a check bouncing which is a rare case, the sportsbook would most likely compensate you for the inconvenience. Most sb's give one free per month also.

Hope this helps.

I deposited a few checks from three books and never had a problem. Granted most of the checks were for less than 2k so the tellers never asked me any qustions. Never had a check bounce either. One check was drawn on a bank in Detroit and one was drawn on a bank on Costa Rica and both went through.

josbran · Answer

Another thing that you should never do is use a check cashing place to cash the checks. Everyone on covers should open a small bank or Credit union account just for their gambling money. I use both and keep less than $1,200 in both. There a tons of credit union around the USA that would love to have your money and they don&#x27;t ask too many questions about deposits. Of course of a check does bounce it&#x27;s a hassel but that&#x27;s the chance you take living here in the USA.

Have done many withdrawals thru Greek by checks ($35 fee IIRC) last 4-5 yrs. WU fees is just way too much. Checks by Fed-Ex within a wk.

I do some odd amount like 3523.45 just to be safe.

Curious thing about couple of my withdrawal checks after the Pokerstars fiaso recently. Two checks from 2 separate books came from exact same bank. Needless to say, I deposited them into separate banks.

I deposit 6k plus checks for my boss all the time, the tellers don&#x27;t give a shit.
