I agree Western Union should certainly be a viable option. I know they don´t “allow” gambling transactions but that shouldn´t be an obstacle.

The fact is, US banks have no idea the checks are coming from an online casino. I just cashed a number of checks from various programs. And U.S. poker players are being paid by check. Just read the threads over at the 2+2 poker site.
The casino’s payment processors are refusing to send checks to the US. That is where the problem is. This has nothing to do with U.S. banks not cashing checks.
Hi again all,
well Dom is not entirely incorrect just to set matters straight.
there have been issues (to what I’ve read) where checks have been refused or bounced due to the fact they came from online casinos.
Now that said: I revert to the point that its simply a matter of staying ahead of the game and that is the cost of doing business nowadays.
there is no way a bank can know a check came from a casino if it is done right! nuff said!

What happens is that a bank is chosen, the account opened and funded, checks issued (all of which takes time). By the time the check arrives, the issuing chosen bank has closed the account. The checks bounce.
