    there is no way you can cash out without sending verification forms. well, i guess you can cash out up to a limit...usually up to your initial deposit...anymore after that you need to send them extra forms.

    to answer your question, i prefer wire or book to book transfer.

    FedEx is the way to go with theGreek. JohnMayer if you're currently playing bases you ought to look into their sister site, BetJamaica, which offers lower odds and pays out via the BetJamaica ATM card which offers withdrawals at any ATM within 15 minutes....

    BB does that card withdraw directly from your playing account? Or does it need to be processed and diverted to a separate account?

    Monkey you just withdraw whatever amount you want from your account for your ATM takeout, and can go to any ATM machine and withdraw the money. Your money is ready for the ATM withdrawal literally within 5-10 minutes for a whopping 50 cent fee. It's by far the best withdrawal process out there...

    I sent an email to The Greek requesting a postal service withdrawal and this is the reply I received:

    Dear XXXXXX,

    Please be advised that we do not recommend our customer to take regular mail, because they are getting lost. If you wish to proceed you will be responsible for the stop payment charge that is associated with this method, and this takes may up to 6 weeks.

    Please advise

    Regards
    Tracy
    The Greek


    Pretty funny stuff and typical of how books are treating their customers these days ... BigBollocks, what is the charge for a Fed Ex with them? ... I will look into the BetJamaica card ... The Greek wanted $10 for a check by regular mail ... As usual, getting a withdrawal is an adventure.

    So at the Greek every withdrawal you make you have to send verification forms? That must be a pain. I was thinking of signing up to The Greek too. How often do you have to send them verif. forms if you're withdrawing by fedex or **?

    Having lost the Neteller option, I only use FedEx now when it comes to the Greek, pretty much withdrawing once a month. I've only had to send in verifications documents once, that being a fax of my driver's license, both sides. Once they have that on file, I believe nothing more is required.

    Incidentally, FedEx usually arrives a day later, and has never been more than a 2 day wait, at least in my particular case.

    I had a conversation with CS at The Greek today ... Verification forms are required if you make ANY kind of withdrawal within 30 days of 1st deposit ... After that that she told me no verification forms are required ... I opened an account with them on 6/3 and made a deposit ... I've been trying to get a withdrawal ... Regular post takes 4-6 weeks so they say and costs $10 ... Everything else they have is more expensive ... A Fed Ex is $35 ... Verification is a picture ID, front and back of a CC and the last statement of that CC ... I used my DC for the deposit so the last statement would be my checking account ... Fat chance I'm sending anything overseas to anyone ... I'll wait the 30 days and do the Fed Ex and kiss them good bye.

    Frankly, I'm getting tired of all this crap and been in and out of numerous processors ... If I can't do an *************** both ways or my DC or some reasonable quick method, I'll pass ... I'll stick to the ponies.

    I had been a Bodog and Cris (Bookmaker) customer for at least several years ... The only option for a withdrawal at Bodog for me is mail and they say 30 days ... Hahahahaha .... Bookmaker doesn't do ********** (my DC) or *************** so they are gone also ... I'm not jumping through hoops anymore.

    Paying $35 to get your money in two to three days is the biggest bargain going these days. Newsflash...internet gambling has gotten harder in the last year.

    You're a funny guy bigjp ... I'll pay the $35 this time to get MY $ but never again ... If the books charged $35 every time you made a deposit they'd be OUT OF BUSINESS fast ... Oh I forgot, business is so good they can screw you any way they feel like it.

    Kdm unfortunately bigjp is dead on the money about this being one of the better options out there (unfortunate as it is, it still beats paying the same fee and waiting two months from bodog or sportsbook or the like).

    If you can wait a week I'd advise you to pay $5 to have the BetJam card mailed to you, and have theGreek transfer your balance to BetJamaica (there's no fee involved). Then you can withdraw instantaneously and for .50. I go between theGreek and BetJam frequently in order to utilize my BetJam card. Sorry for your troubles mate and I think we ALL can agree on the level of frustration reaching greater heights....

    Right on BB ... I'm looking into Betjam ... Frankly I can sit and wait til things get better rather than pay fees at the beck and call of the books ... If a book wants my business, they can pay the fees or be more creative in how to do business which I know is difficult these days ... I'm a decent sports customer but I can sit.

    You should only have to provide docs once unless a new transfer method requires something more than originally given. For example, using a CC after depositing by check may mean a request for a CC form or scan of the card.

    I've made withdrawals from The Greek using ** without having to provide any verification and got my money by the end of the day. It's a bit pricey, though.

    I 've only made deposits there using xxxxxxxxxxxx and **.

    The Greek is fast and reliable when it comes to withdrawls. Do yourself a favor and send in all the documentation they need, it'll be a good 15 minute investment. I played there during the NBA season and made withdrawls mostly through ** (hefty fees though, as someone else previously pointed out), but have since transferred my balance to Betjam, as I think they have better lines for bases.
