Here is epass fuckin news....
 

Its bad? Yes its fuckin bad.

I was quit & calm. Reading but not writing much from last many days. I requested for a wire ***** five figures 11 days ago to an Australian bank. After couple of days when I didn't get a written approval. I ring them to know the status for my wire request. They said my request was approved & I have to wait 7 to 10 days to see money in my bank. I said ok.... Its fair enough. Its one of their predefined terms.

Now after 10 days I see money still sitting in my epass account. I went to the contact us page to find the phone number. I see this:


I was like WTF :Oh crap


Send them a message 911 to know whats going on. I got this message from them:


Wtf they can't count or what?


Visa Virtual is dead---->

Where the hell this all is leading towards? Are they just buying time to get away from all this shit with our money by giving us false hope every now & then. :(



I am a kind of man who believe in positives but: :Oh crap

it is certainly looking bad... im glad i only lost a few hundred, but even still it hurts because epassporte was so damn easy, especially for us Australians / internationals

Your money is trapped. Best to let it go.

yeah, you can see it that way. if one was seeing it from positive perspective one would say they are stalling with wires because they want to solve things first and hope the people would not request wires once everything is working again...

but yes, with phones down not it is really hard to stay positive now...

this is not good :(

I requested a significant 5 figure wire to an AU bank account also. It got processed, then a few days ago (some week or more after my transfer) I was informed that ePassporte sent the money to "Standard Chartered Bank" who refuse to work with ePass. So I was forced to set up a new bank account (went with CBA) and restart the wire transfer. I was waiting for a few days, thought something was up.

If you don't mind me asking, which bank are you with? It's possible the funds have been held up. Have you had a successful wire before?

Their response clearly states 7-10 working days. If it went out on the 9th US time i count 6 working days with 7 being Monday US time right?

did you get it in the end?

btw to all the australians in this thread, how the fuck annoying is the USD/AUD right now?

The phones are now down? Not good...

If the call center stays down all day tomorrow, I will lose faith almost completely.

not good news :(:(:(:(:(

Indeed. Exchange sucks compared to not so long ago. I am yet to get it. I got the notice about it failing on Friday afternoon. Had to open the new bank account this morning.

Yes I did a successful wire before in January 2010 to the same bank account.
Bank Name: ANZ

We got our wire last week and it was for 6 figures.. Email Michael O and give it more time to hit your bank?

Thanks

= 10 Days mate not including 9th & 20th.

Which bank were you with DatingGold, if you don't mind me asking? I know certain banks have preferences for conversions. Some of those intermediary banks don't like epass. Woops, maybe you're not from AU ;)

I don't mind waiting but they should tell me whats going on with my wire request. How come I still see money in my epass if it is suppose to wired. I tried email. You see their response in my first post.

Is their any other email id I should try?

hey guys...is your money in your epass wallet when you requested a wire transfer?

yes mine is.....

The call center is experiencing technical problems at the moment but expect to be back up soon.

& my money?

i dont think saturday and sunday are counted as working days...

10 days doesn't equal 10 business days so assuming it was approved and went out on the 9th 10,13,14,15,16,17= 6 business days and end of Monday US time(or tuesday Australian time = 7)

damn u are right
I have bad feeling about this matter. The last time i requested money after approving the money was deducted from my account within 2 days. This time money is not deducted from my epass so far.....

but I will still wait for another 4 days including today before bumping this thread again. It will either be a good news for all of us or another sad one.

Thank you for the responses & helping hands.

never stop believe it

Hi man, i dont think your money is lost.
from what YOU SAY
1. Still 10 WORKING DAYS didn't pass
2. You still got the money in your account. Its not like its sent, money is deducted, you havent got it, and they dont answer your calls.

so relax, drink water, you will be ok.

Good luck

Not only are Saturday and Sunday not working days, but Monday hasn't really even started yet. So it's been more like 7 working days.

I miss epass :(

...it's in motion.

Are the phones in motion?

10 working days or not, that should be a standard message you get with wire transfers and it tells you the estimate time when money will be in your bank, not when they leave Epass ( are actually sent ). So 2-3 more days are added AFTER the leave Epass.

Don't worry 10 working days will pass and money will not be in your bank because they only sent out a handful of wires since this whole thing started ( to very well known people aka the BROs )

I'm in the same boat as you and probably many others with a massive amount trapped in there and a wire hanging since this started

Phone support or not, wires are not going out at the moment

It is amazing how many people in "business" dont understand what a "business day" is.

sat and sun are NOT business days

Amazes me too but I think people are having 24/7 expectations now due to being able to buy anything on the internet at any time.

sat and sunday should be business days. Can not believe they are talking about cutting sat mail delivery in the US

Only srs biz's count Sat/Sun as business days.

Exactly.

BUSINESS DAYS, meaning M-F, not including weekends or holidays.

Guys, regarding the issue at hand, it is not important if Sat/Sun are business days or not. What is important is that Epass is not wiring money out at all. Understand that!

Also understand not to intervene in all Epass threads when you never used it or have like $5 in there

These Epassporte delays trouble me.

or because business is 24/7, but you are right.

Keep the faith, it may be something easy to fix..

lol someone should create a thread with these pictures of Chris Mallick

What is exactly the problem, i mean the money is safe so why not call that bank and say: hey, i want my money which is on your bank.

Okay, idiot. Can YOU count???

Thank you for your email. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to
you. In regards to your inquiry, please be informed that your Bank Wire
Transfer Request was approved on 09/10/2010, so it takes 7-10 business
days for the funds to be credited into your Beneficiary Bank Account.

By my count only 5-6 business days have elapsed.

How has the first 2 few weeks as a member of GFY been going for you ?:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
