Walker poker news

[Randy]

Most of you with Walker Poker probably already got this, but I thought I'd post just in case.

Walker Poker team would like to update you that due to the recent notification by Epassporte, players will not be able to deposit and withdraw via Epassporte until further notice.
Walker Poker team, as always, support ALL our players from around the world, and is working on providing the best methods for handling you money.
Walker Poker players can use all our other available processing methods, including Credit Cards and EwalletXpress, which support U.S players as well.
Walker Poker team would like to recommand all our U.S players to open an account with EwalletXpress, which is very similar to Epassporte but much easier to fund and handle your money. In order to have an account with EwalletXpress, simply click here or visit http://www.ewalletxpress.com

This will pretty much keep me from using their service.

10%! Unbelievable.

I have contacted Walker to have a representative come here and post too.. I for one think they should waive these fees because of this whole Epassporte fiasco.

Hopefully if he (or she) stops in, he (or she) could address my little problem of not being able to transfer funds to other WalkerPoker players because I never deposited (if that's the reason, that is). I for one think it's pretty lame to allow people to accept transfers but not initiate them.

Let's think about this for a minute... Since the average player probably loses money online, if someone like me gets money tranfered into their account, then makes it grow, then transfers some of it to a third player, isn't it more of a possiblity that a larger percentage of money will end up in a rake somewhere? I dunno. I just want answers, that's all.

Also lame, is their not replying to an e-mail I sent them almost a week ago.

That sucks BL. I've actually had very fast responses from them on two issues I had (within an hour both times). Not sure why they are not responding.

It must be dollars and cents...

You play for dollars and...

That said, I'm going to send them another e-mail now. Let's see if they respond.

Hey All,

My name is Eran and I work with WalkerPoker.com

I see that you have concerns regarding the whole Epass issue, like the rest of us.

At the moment the only Ewallet solution available is EwalletXpress. I know fees are higher and when you make a deposit or withdraw we cover those fees, which are about 10%. In order to help covering some of those fees, we offer the 10% instant bonus on the deposits.

you can all of course use credit cards, which will work perfectly for 99% of you.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or contact our banking department at cashier @ walkerpoker.com

Cheers,

Eran

BigL's refraining from comment.

Thank you for coming and responding Eran! Can you tell us what new cashout options will be available in the future?
