    Default FULL TILT TAKING MONEY OUT OF CHECKING ACCOUNTS WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION!

    I JUST WANTED TO WARN EVERY! that Full Tilt has started taking money out of peoples bank accounts without Authorization! My Daughter first noticed this a week or so ago after she requested $500.00 withdrawal from Full Tilt. The day after she received her withdrawal Full Tilt withdrew $20 from her checking account! The did this 3 times in a week. She contacted them without a response and then all of a sudden they took out $100. She finally received a response from Full Tilt saying that two other people had access to her account. She sent FT an email requesting who those people would be, she has not received a response. I know she has transferred money a couple times to my account and once to her brothers. So if FT is saying that I or her brother have been messing with her account then why are deposits not showing up in mine or her brothers account! I'm thinking FT is getting worried about loosing the US market share and are taking everything they can hoping that people will not notice. I will let you know that we never play at FT at the same time.
    I suggest if your a US player you keep an eye on your bank and credit card accounts to make sure they are not illegally withdrawing money out of your accounts! If this or similar things are happening to you let me know as I'm compiling a list in case further action is necessary!

    It's being taken from her checking account! They are telling her that other people have access to her account which is untrue, she has given me a few dollars but I don't have access to her account and if I did why is a deposit not showing up in my account!

    Full Tilt has had a few people complaints in the past with payment processors.

    Warning: Credit Card on Full Tilt compromised - Internet Poker - Online Poker Forum

    I'd probably close the account.

    The question is, how could you own them 100 bucks? When people make a deposit, are they fronting people the money, and then thinking they can just take it whenever they please? It should work like any other online purchase and be taken from the credit card or bank account right then!

    I aggree with you that the money should be taken out right away. I'm sure someone shady who works for Full Tilt might be doing this but that makes Full Tilt no less responsible. I'v also heard it is a 3rd party processor that Full Tilt has used in the past, that still makes Full Tilt responsible to make it right.

    It's gonna be interesting.

    I remember a guy who ran up a bill on fulltilt of $3K. as in they never took the money out of his bank accounts but still gave him the money.
    he never let us know what happened to him or the money.
    But, he did actually loose all the money he deposited as he was SHITE,
    something fishy going on their my friend.
    I'd possibly close the checking account or freeze it
