Pending periods - pros and cons!

[ValDes]

Hello, dear friends!

Every time I request a withdrawal, my brain immediately began to look inside its records for the associated “pending period”! Questions began to flow through my mind with the speed of light, like “Was it 24 hours, or 2 days?” or “Do the weekend counts?” and etc., and actually instead of being happy, you realize that just a new stage of the worries has started?!!! Have thought a lot about all this, but frankly, never managed to get the idea for the existence of it! Who wins from it? The casinos? I doubt, since they will pay, no matter after 1 day, or 2 or a week! The player? Not at all – who will refuse to have the money immediately in his pocket without being forced to wait days? Than?

My experience with those nasty “pending periods” is actually quite contradictory! Sometimes I resist on the temptation and don’t even start the casino software until I got the money – so the casino does not win much in this time, I am afraid! More likely, I don’t resist and reverse back some part of the withdrawal and usually lose it, so the casino wins. But got some lucky days, when I managed to make winnings several times bigger than the original withdrawal amount! But no matter what a mood is ruling my current temper, the “pending periods” are irritating me constantly!

What do you think?

i hate pending periods so much! such a stupid way for the casino to try and get back your wins imo. a lot of good places will let you flush if you just bug someone in chat tho. if they have a pending period and don't flush i don't play there.

[Luciana]

What do you mean by "flush" in this context klarissa?

[Greg]

yeah i'd like to know that myself, i'm so bad at reversing. you just go to chat and say "hi process my withdrawal right now?" ha.

[The.Dark.Knight]

I also hate these terrible pendings! Why never seen a pending deposit, but only withdrawals?

[klarissa]

sorry i took so long to reply <3 yeah honestly you can just go into live chat at most of the microgaming places and ask to flush the withdrawal and they will cancel the ability to reverse, they still have to take time to process it though.

[ValDes]

It seems that Microgaming has put some delicate pressure upon its operators lately to allow such "flush" upon requesting withdrawals! Just a year ago that was absolutely impossible! Maybe the things are going in the right direction finally!

[Greg]

I guess so Val since I didn't even know it was a thing lol, i play more Playtech than MG but hopefully i can convince some of the casinos to do that. bet365 pays way fast so it's generally not an issue though and that's my casino of choice.

[The.Dark.Knight]

Hey, klarissa, ValDes

Don't be so shy, told us a little bit more about this flushing. I never used it but it seems to be a great opportunity to save some of my winnings, since I reverse soooooooo often

[klarissa]

not much to it really. you just need to go to the live chat in the casino and ask to flush the withdrawal. if they don't have live chat, they probably don't flush. if you have problems reversing i'd find places that do flushing. i have the best luck with microgaming like i said but you can just pop into chat and ask a rep before you deposit anywhere.

[ValDes]

I have used the "flash option" just a few times in only one casino group - 32 Red, including Dash and Nedplay casino. I laso tried to use it but was refused in some of the member casinos of Casino Rewards and Vegas Partner Lounge!

[The.Dark.Knight]

Thank you both for the info!

BTW, yesterday decided to try some "flashing" for the first time and just as klarissa recommended I started a live chat with my current MGS casino - Rich Reels. The result was zero - the girl in the chat was kind but in short the meaning of her answers was near "Are you crazy?" :( so I guess just another confirmation that Casino rewards haven't heard of flushing yet!

 

Since it looks like "flushing" will be a tough job for me can some of the gurus here recommend casinos paying straight, without pending periods or so?

[ValDes]

Hm, not an easy task, mate!

 

At prima vista I can remember of only two casinos without any pending period and that's Virgin and Ladbrokes. I will do some extra research and post it here if found any others!

[Greg]

Last time I played at 32Red Casino they flushed, but a lot of the payment options are basically instant so there's usually not even a point lol.

Completely agree with you, Greg! It looks like 32 Red soon will join the famous club of "casinos without pending periods"!

[The.Dark.Knight]

Hey, I got an idea!

 

Why do we not make our own list and call it "Fast Paying Casinos" or "Casinos Paying under 24 hours" or something like that, where everybody can propose and share own experience and observation for such casinos? What do you think?

[SlotoHolic]

Well, hope you won't shoot me, but I'm kind of fan of those pending periods! If they are within some reasonable limits, of course!

It is all a matter of self discipline - if I take a decision not to reverse, than just stick to it and that's all. On the other hand if decide to reverse some part of the w/d, than it's ok again, because I'm not forced to pay fees and taxes again for a deposit, right?

Why shoot you if we can punch you instead?! Kidding, mate!

 

I accept your logic and arguments completely. You are absolutely right - everything in gamble is a matter of self discipline! I just follow a different philosophy and it is very simple. In the minute, I request a withdrawal, it means that the money become mine, so it is just a pure human reaction to get asap what you think is yours, right? On top of that, no one is paying you an interest for delaying your money! Not to mention what The.Dark.Knight said above - have someone heard of a pending deposit? It would be just great to play in a casino completely free and to pay a week after or so!

That sounds as good idea! ANyone else for it?

[Luciana]

I'm always happy when I see some new threads and activities here

[fiero]

I would love a section of the website about fast casinos to wd from but it might be hard to do. what would be used to determine who got listed?

[ValDes]

As a beginning I will start with a separate thread here in the forum and share my experience for casinos, paying me under 24 hours!

 

what would be used to determine who got listed?

Your own experience of any casino, which paid you in less than 24 hours!

 

P.S. It's done already! Look here!

[Black Diamond]

Thanks for the thread Val! It'll be nice to get some input about this.

I hate, hate and ... hate that awful pending periods! If only they didnt exist, I could pay all my education. If someone returns my reversed withdrawals, of course!
