Pic-Club and Merge Part Ways!

[Chips]

I logged into my Pic-Club account today and saw the following notice:

PICClub and the Merge Network have mutually agreed to end their business relationship. Transactions to or from the Merge Network rooms have been disabled.

I guess for now that leaves us stuck with ewalletXpress for the primary processor. Hate to see them go but I am sure there must be some explanation. If I get more news I'll pass it on.

BigBet should remain to accept Pic as they are not using Merge processors.

Just checked and BigBet remains as the only Merge Network room still accepting Pic-Club as a funding method.

Take a moment and email the poker rooms you play at on the Merge Network and let them know you want to keep Pic-Club and ask them to consider setting up private processing with Pic. There is a way they can do it, it takes a bit of time and testing but is one of the best (if not only) ways that players from the USA can fund their account.

I have contacted the rooms I work with, but many voices will prevail over just one or two. It is not often that we players can make a difference, this is your chance to help!

Most sites use support@insertpokerroomhere.com as the contact email. I can help anyone that needs it in drafting a letter, email addresses, names, etc. Just PM me or post here. I stand ready to help.

I have not heard anything on this. I will say I have cashed out from 3 Merge rooms in the past week and it went to ewalletXpress without any issues. It may have been the processing fee charged by Pic-Club or any number of other issues.

Over the past 3 years, I have seen funding methods come and go on Merge so it is anyone's guess why they pulled Pic.

I read that the problem is merge, apparently they owe Pic-Club $ and Pic-Club decide to cut working with Merge until get paid.

BTW, i make a Withdraw with Neteller from Nordica since Monday and so far nothing, i am waiting to this next Monday to talk to support.

is a shame that most sites take 24hrs and this network take 3 days, and now is almost a week.

That makes perfect sense (Pic pulling the plug). I know they did that to another client last year. Let me know if you need any help regarding the cashout. Mine were on ewx and processed 3 days laater, (was requested on a Friday, approved on Monday).

So is it still e-wallet express that is the best choice for using merge sites at the moment, correct ? Thats to bad because merge is my fav poker software

Yes, ewalletXpress is the best as far as I am concerned, I have been getting my cashouts processed in 2 days usually. Just hate that 10% fee ewx charges for me to cash out to my bank account. Checks are horrible from Merge, I waited nearly 12 weeks for a check once (and only once)!
