cashouts with firepay?
Has anyone here used firepay for cashouts? I was thinking I would have them linked to my bank account.
Second question: How much money can I take at a time and how frequently can I do it? Right now I have about $1500 in my paradise account and would like to cash out about a grand. Would it be safer to make 2 withdraws of say, $500? Or does the IRS even care about this small a transaction. How often do you guys cash out in general. Note this is just a small side job for some extra cash. By no means am I a pro. |

Firepay is great at depositing money quick to your bank account. They do charge $5 for an EFT, which is not bad since you dont have to wait for a check or go to the bank to make a deposit.
I love my Firepay Account! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: cashouts with firepay?
neteller is better. When I first started at online poker I picked Firepay since I did not want to wait 2 days too set up a neteller account.
Now I have $130 in Firepay and am too cheap too pay the $5 too get it out! |

Re: cashouts with firepay?

Re: cashouts with firepay?
I haven't done a Firepay cashout, because when I withdraw to my Firepay account, I deposit the money at Party and then withdraw using IGM-Pay.
As far as the IRS, no one really knows what could get you caught, but you have to assume the chance exists. Since "a guy on 2+2 said I could" won't impress anyone if you get caught, you should decide how much risk you can accept on your own. Martin |

Re: cashouts with firepay?
This sounds like a question for a tax preparer, rather than a random novice poker player. I don't think the true pro players on here are going to hang their cheese out in the wind by answering this question. Make an anonymous phone call to H&R Block, see what they have to say. Get a few second opinions. Then post your finding on here, I'm sure most of us are curious.

Re: cashouts with firepay?
i can't tell you how the current state of affairs is at firepay. however, i felt the need to add to this thread so some other opinions can be heard.
i had absolute nightmares with firepay, including vanishing withdrawals for 3K-7K each that took 7 weeks of case work to sort out and be credited to my bank account. i have posted many a rant at rgp of this tale and do not wish to repeat it. i think the old days represented a bad business model at best, and corporate theft at worst. if those using it now say it is fixed, then i tend to beleive them, things were not always so simple tho. |
