Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Absolutely loving this, Greg.
I have yet to get a check from the NFBC that the bank didn't put 'on hold' for 10 days.
This should alleviate that problem.
Thanks again.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Again, this is one step of putting more control in your hands when it comes to prize money. We still have plans to launch a Player Accounts link for you that will let you tell us how much you want deposited and if you want to keep any of your prize money on account for future contest purchases. In other words, you'll have the ability to keep some prize money in your account if you'd like and easily pay next year's entry fees that way rather than cash and pay separately. It will also be a more transparent tool to show what is owed each season and an easy way to track how much you've won this season and in past seasons with STATS. Look for that soon.DOUGHBOYS wrote:Absolutely loving this, Greg.

People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.

Will payouts come before we get access to the upcoming online money management tool? Winners of large prizes will likely want to leave some money behind to cover next year's entry fees then get the rest paid out by check or direct deposit.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Any updates? I have mixed feelings about the direct deposit option. On the one hand, it's way faster to get direct deposit and I don't have to drive to the bank. On the other hand, I like my wife seeing the check when it arrives.
OK - So I'm not as good as I thought I was; but at least I am consistent.
Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Any idea when winners might get paid? I want to plan out my month. Also, I e-mailed my direct deposit info but never received a confirmation. Is that normal? Thanks.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
We need to get all of the split prizes forms in today before sending out payments. Same with direct deposit forms this week, but everything else is in place and we're ready to go. We'll have the checks in the mail this month and we'll post the actual date when they go out shortly.bjoak wrote:Any idea when winners might get paid? I want to plan out my month.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Am I missing something? I can't seem to find the "attached" form that we need to fill out if we want direct deposit. I am fine with getting paid via snail mail, but direct deposit seems like a nice option. I've read most of the news letters... Pete

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
When will direct deposits be made?
Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
The whole purpose of direct deposit seems lost if they are received after everyone else gets a check.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
I believe everyone is getting paper checks since they weren't able to finalize the direct deposit setup yet... At least that is how I interpreted it... Greg/Tom.. correct me if I am wrong.bjoak wrote:The whole purpose of direct deposit seems lost if they are received after everyone else gets a check.
Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
How do you know this? Looking back through, Greg's last post in this thread seemed to imply people who signed up for it would be paid by direct deposit, though I have to say check is starting to look like the more attractive option.since they weren't able to finalize the direct deposit setup yet

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
I'm in Chicago this week for meetings and will get updates on everything shortly. I didn't want to post anything on payouts until I was in the office, so just hang tight on answering for us. Thanks.
We're working hard this week to plan for 2014, so hopefully all goes well. Stay tuned on all.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
There will be direct deposit payments and the good news is that almost 100 people are getting paid this way. Good job everyone. Look for these soon if they haven't landed already.

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Hopefully the direct deposits will start today or tomorrow. Since this is our first time doing this we needed to take a few extra steps with our own bank before sending over the money. We should be good soon and in the future I would suspect that direct deposit winners will see their payments first. It's a nice process for you and it helps us, too. So look for your money shortly. We don't need it anymore; it's yours now!!

Re: Now NFBC Owners Can Get Direct Deposit Payouts
Okay, thanks for your patience all direct deposit winners. We have everything set now and you'll still likely get paid before those receiving checks. Look for deposits in the next day and CONGRATS.
