Painter567 0 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Has anyone used CashRefund yet? Thanks,BradFrom Stars website....What is a CashRefund? CashRefund is an international money transfer service which allows you to pickup your cash refund at over 100,000 locations worldwide. How do I find a CashRefund agent location?To find a CashRefund agent location as well as the hours of operation and phone numbers for each agent location, please visit Find Us page.http://www.moneygram.com/eFindUs/app/pages...ng%3B%40c8f5b8cHow can I make cashouts from PokerStars using CashRefund?Before visiting a CashRefund agent location, you'll need to initiate your cashout from the PokerStars Cashier by entering the amount of money you plan on cashing out via CashRefund. Once you choose the CashRefund cashout option and click the "Submit" button, your transaction will be complete and an email will be sent to you to confirm this.Please note that it may take up to 72 hours to send your cashout for processing. Once your cashout has been processed, you will receive a second e-mail within 24 hours giving you your CashRefund reference number and sender name, which you will need before you visit your chosen agent location for your cash collection.NOTE: The reference number given is a unique one-time reference number. This number can only be used one time. Please return to the PokerStars Cashier and select CashRefund cashout option to request a new reference number each time you wish to cashout using CashRefund.Once you receive your reference number and sender name you simply need to visit a CashRefund agent with your reference number and sender name, complete the simple receive form (the green one) and show your identification*. You will then be given your money, usually in your local currency. If the location does not have enough cash on hand you may be given a cashier’s check.*Please remember to bring personal identification with you. You may also be requested to provide a bank statement or utility bill. For the exact information you'll need to bring to the agent location to complete your transfer, please call the agent location before you go.NOTE: You must visit an agent within your country of residence. If you attempt to use an agent outside your country of residence you will not be able to collect the funds.What happens once I get to the CashRefund agent location?At the agent location, you just have to complete the simple ‘receive’ form (the green one), using the reference number and sender name given to you in your second email, and hand this to the CashRefund agent. The agent location will then process your cashout for you. If you do not fill out the form completely or if you make an error the agent will not be able to complete your transaction. If you encounter any problems please contact mg@pokerstars.com.How long will it be before I can collect my CashRefund cashout?When you receive your CashRefund reference ID and sender name, your money is available for pick up immediately. Please check your local CashRefund agent opening times.

Jariso13 1 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 At least the money they give you usually in your local currency. It would be a bad beat to show up and get a pile of Yen. Link to post Share on other sites

DinkDonk 1 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 This sounds pretty excellent. I'll have to see if there are any locations near me that would be convenient. (I live in the middle of the woods.) Link to post Share on other sites

STYLINHAWYN 0 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Im actually in the proccess of trying this method out right now, needless to say ive ran into a minor setback, but probably nothing anybody should get all worked up about. I cashed out and everything was going fine, went to the store where I can cashout my withdrawl, but they had a limit as to how much you could cash out, mine exceeded that and I couldnt get my cashout. So now I have to get back in touch with "cashrefund" and figure that out. ill keep you posted. Link to post Share on other sites
