    Default Carib increased the fee for Fedex check

    Just got a message in my account today. It says "Dear FedEx User, Our Check writer has informed us that despite their best efforts to continue offering their services at the rate you are accustomed to, they regretfully must adjust their processing cost to continue offering this service. As such, effective September 18,2011 the fee to receive a check by FedEx will be $42.00. Thank you for understanding." No more $35 fee..

    These guys charge an extra fee for deposits on top of whatever the given processor charges. It's ridiculous.

    As much as this sucks for the players at Carib (SBR Rated B) I can't fault them for raising there fees at all because, it's just the price of doing business. Besides, that new fee is still fairly cheap compared to what some other books are charging.

    Getting charged to make a deposit was the final straw for me, I have been a long time customer but enough is enough.

    I agree with you in general on this point but charging a fee on top of what the processor charges for a person to person cash deposit is a total dick punch.

    Carib is one of the more bizarre books in the entire industry. No real need to state the obvious that they're running software from the dark ages. They have unwritten rules regarding deposits, withdrawls and wagering amounts/limits for certain players. I get it but I don't get it. They just don't go about things in a normal way.

    Been playing there 11 years and they ALWAYS pay and pay quickly. Don't think I've ever waited more than a few days for a check. Also, their customer service is outstanding. I use the message system online and they usually will write back within an hour.

    The going rate is around $40... so $2.00 more isn't that bad. Is it worth to switch for $2.00 more???

    What do you mean they charge a fee for depositing?

    Are you saying that if I send a money transfer using w-u, I have to pay the w-u fee and a carib fee?

    They raised their Neteller deposit fee on me from 2.9% to 3.9%.

    Have never been charged a deposit fee by Carib, only my bank (international fee) 1%.
