Cashout warning

Received a check from Stars (via DHL) in 8 days. Depositted today. Let's hope it sticks. Doing the bank transfer thing on FTP. 6 initiated, 1 has gone through. The other 5 are somewhere in limbo.
Update on a recent cashout from FTP...

I emailed them when after 15 business days I had not received my cashout, which was done with the ACH to my account method.

They blamed it on 3rd party processors and advised they would be executing a wire transfer by December 22 (cashout was submitted on Nov. 20 btw) to send me the cash. For my trouble and the wire expense, they deposited $50 in my FTP account yesterday.

tss, are you up to date on your cashouts?
They converted 8 of my bank transfers to a wire and I recieved it the next day. I executed a VIP bank wire last tuesday. Yesterday I emailed them about it and they apologized for the delay (supposed to be 3-5 days) and said they were giving it priority and it should arrive by Monday.
Btw, total wire fees on my first wire were a nickel short of $50.
Got my wire transfer today, and the net net was follows: received $248.19 on a $250 cashout after accounting for credits from FTP and wire transfer fees.

Any more experiences anyone has to share?

On the flip side of cashouts, a friend was just telling me that he has no way to make deposits to Absolute, and he's tried everything.

Anybody, anybody? Beuller?
They upped the bank transfer to $2500, which is nice.

eh? Not in my software. The VIP bankwire has been turned off and has said it will be fixed in 3 weeks for the last 5 weeks.

I've been using the Premium bank wire. 8k withdrawl takes a $50 hit from bank fees. I don't know the MGR / Rakeback hit.
I don't think I've ever seen the VIP bankwire. The regular bank transfer method, that I've always used (used to be $950x3 per week) is up $2500x3 per week.

I also have the check option now, but I've never used it.
this is quite odd. I checked the other night when you mentioned the changes to the bank transfer method and it remained 950. Today it is $2500. Now if I could only find out the MGR cost of each withdrawal method, I could actually figure out which was was best. Do you have any idea the hit you are taking from the bank transfer method. From a simplicity standpoint, I need to figure out if the MGR hit per bank transfer *3 *.27 > MGR hit Bank Wire *.27 + $50.
Certainly, I'm guessing 1 VIP bankwire with only a $12 hit and 1 transfer instead of 4 would be cheapest, but that method remains unavailable.
I've never gotten charged for a bank transfer, and I've never been able to find an MGR hit.
