    Default New Here and have a question

    Hello all,

    I am from Australia and have recently gotten into the poker world.

    I decided after having so much trouble with PokerStars, to go and play on titan. They seem to have a nice software, and when I am bored I throw $5 into the Hulk machine.

    Well, last night I decided to throw $10 into the hulk machine, got a feature, and expanding hulk in the free spin. Long story short, I was up $1600.

    I always said to myself if I ever win $40-$50 I would just use it to cure my insane boredom, and would not fight with titan to release the money to me.

    Well, Now I actually do want the money. I am waiting on bank statements and a whole heap of Id to come in the mail before I go and take a Digital Photograph of them.

    My question is;

    Will they actually give me the money I had won?

    I am paranoid now. All of these companies seem fishy to me, but because I rarely leave the house and go out anymore, online poker has been an aleviator of boredom.

    I am also very scared to send out my Drivers License with all the number data showing. I already have been a victim of Identidy theift once, and don't want it to happen again, but it was a very minor case.

    I do not have a passport, i only have;

    Driver License
    Medicare
    Bank cards
    Debit Cards
    Birth Certificate
    Bank Statement

    All of which I have taken a photo of, not scanned.

    Also, I have to print out an email and put my signature in writing for the past 15-20 transactions. Some of those transactions were from an old card, and has long been disposed of. Luckly, westpac have issued me with one of those old cards, which is un-usable, but after explaining to them what I am trying to do, they were SO helpful! I reccomend Westpac 100% after what they have done for me today.

    So will they pay me? Or will they take my soul and sanity away form me to the point where $1300 is a meisley amount of money compared to the amount of Zoloft Ill have to take after dealing with them?

    Yes. They trade with millions of dollars each day, $1600 is insignificant change that nobody cares about but you. It may take a few weeks, just step through the hoops and be patient.

    Hi kngcashman,

    Yes, you'll be fine. Everything you have described is standard ID verification for anyone wanting to play and withdraw funds from online poker sites.

    If you have any troubles, please let us know.

    Thankyou so much for the support, I feel much more confident now. I am not in a standard situation, you see. But I don't think posting the entire story would be relevant.

    Thanks for the replies

    Ill tell the story in a nutshell.

    The Account is played by two people in the family, and we used two different cards to deposit rather small amounts over the period of 10 months.

    They had no problem with two people using the same debit card to deposit, however they requiered an authorization letter to be done, which is no problem at all, it is actually done.

    However the card was very old, and had been changed from a debit to a savings account. However Westpac solved this for us by re-issueing the old card so we can take a photo of it. Once we told them we need it for ID they we happy to help.

    Also, since that time, my mother (The other user of the account) has changed her name, as both her and my father went through a divorce. To combat this dilema, I have provided a marrage certificate and various ID's that were not requested to show the name change. And as many of you know, even when renewing a license here in australia, the old ID must be handed in. Thus getting a re-issue of an old drivers license with an old name is impossible, and against the law.

    That is pretty much it. I have to prove the old name and the new name and have done with this certain official Government documents.

    My Mother does not use the internet much, but plays certain games on there to occupy herself. I take care of her with my home business, as she cannot work for many reasons.

    I am just worried that they will get extremley suspicious, as they usually do. They are not accustomed with Australian law and may hound me for the old drivers license, but this is illigal in my state, and most likely the entire country. A Birth certificate, marrage certificate, Old bank statement with the old name, and old debit card with the old name should be enough in my eyes, perhaps not in their eyes. This is my dilema.

    THERE IS NO STRATEGY to the Hulk machine. I play it because i like the noises, lol. I play poker too, but sometimes it can get boring.

    titan also takes centrelink payments. just set up the direct transfer option, and they will payout to your centrelink account within 24hrs, no id checks as centrelink is 100 points in their credit check.
