email from FTP saying new payment processors are on the way:

Dear Tilter,

Thank you for your continued play at Full Tilt Poker.

As you are probably aware, events completely unrelated to online poker have sparked significant changes within the payment processing industry over the past week, forcing many companies to either leave or suspend their operations within the United States.

We apologize for any inconvenience these changes have caused, and want you to know that we remain committed to providing you with great payment processing convenience and the fastest customer service possible. Unfortunately, given the unusually high volume of email generated in recent days, we have been unable to respond to our players as quickly as we would like.

Rest assured, however, that we are working to remedy this situation as quickly as possible and that:

* Your money is completely safe and secure - Any money you have in your Full Tilt Poker account remains completely accessible, and is available for play or withdrawal at any time.

* We've contracted with new payment processors who are committed to the U.S. market - These processors all use payment systems unaffected by last week's developments, and will become available starting this week.

* You may withdraw money by check - If you are withdrawing $300 or more from your player account, you may request your funds by check. Please read our rules for requesting a payment by check.

* Our processing speeds will return to normal - Once our new payment processors come online, you will see a variety of new, convenient deposit options for your use, and withdrawals processed within our normal time frames of 48 hours or less.

We thank you for your patience during this time of transition and want you to know that we remain dedicated to providing you with full access to all of our games and tournaments, and the best online poker experience possible.

Sincerely,

Full Tilt Poker

I saw that. This is very good news.

Nice screenname.

Oh, and thanks for the good news.

[TheMightyJim2k]

not my SN, but your very welcome for the good news. I'm very interested to see if stars also sends out something similar soon.

[dad604]

That is good news. I miss all my US online buddies...

I wonder why I didn't get this email from FTP.

[TheMightyJim2k]

they only sent it to people that recentlyl had emailed them with deposit/ withdrawal questions. My guess is that they the players who have no clue that this Neteller business just happened won't realize there is a problem before they can fix it with new transfer methods.

[Poker4eveR]

Were all assuming the sites will figure out new deposit/withdrawal methods. After all, were talking billions of dollars each year on the line. If so, they should be much harder for the DOJ to mess with. Then, the question will be, are the methods convienent to use?

[mattjrocks]

Yes! The man will never hold us down!

[Poker4eveR]

I must say, I'm going to be really interested in how they come up with these new methods to move money around for US players. I really can't figure out how they plan on getting around what has already happened.
