In Venezuela, playing at 888Poker is prohibited. I think the reason they started banning playing from certain countries is because these kinds of things tend to happen when you withdraw money. 888Poker was a competitive site a few years ago.
I received the money today, according to the withdrawal request I submitted. The process took three days, which is a long time, but in my case it always takes three days. Overall, everything went smoothly. And by the way, the freerolls that you consider canceled are actually in the lobby, and there is no indication that they will be canceled.Rory59 said:It’s funny , I posted maybe 1.5 years ago about being worried about withdrawing once I actually won something . Posters on here assured me they were legit, and once I started winning a bit my money was in my CAD account like clockwork….first time almost a whole day, but after it was always 10 minutes , super fast !
But now on the sub Reddit, I am seeing a few posts per day complaining about additional red tape , or simply getting account blocked with $1000’s available . When it was one post a week, I was 100% on 888‘s side because I always got paid, but now, hearing stories how business is way down. But now seems like 2-3 complaints DAILY. They cancelled 3 popular freerolls yesterday, the $450, $500, AND SPORTSFAN $500. I know I am not the only player who plays these regularly
I have another smaller amount that will become available next week due to wagering requirements, we shall see if that cash comes at all. But damn if they are indeed going under & purposely squeezing every last penny from unsuspecting players, while pros everywhere still have an 888 sponsorship logo on their shirts….very scummy
But hey, I will wait until that I make that withdrawal request…..Just a warning y’all, doesn’t look good
Rory59 said:See now that’s concerning ….Its bad enough we have to wager 600% of what we win, now they don’t let you wager at all? WOW
Oh look it’s 5:03, time for another Sportsfan! I actually got 4th a month ago , took my time spreading the bets out. GUESS WHAT? I was busy, usually it’s 10 minutes late registration, I am blocked again with 3 tickets for the Sportsfan. Unreal !
I will see in about a week’s time…..Saturday there is the Level 60/80 tournaments , and my sports requirement should be fulfilled by then. Like I said, I made about 10 withdrawals in last year or so, first was almost 24 hours, the rest were instant, like 10 minutesRost said:I received the money today, according to the withdrawal request I submitted.

I play on ipad & iphone . The $450,$500, Sportsfan and now $3,000 Sunday Waves are all disappearing . I delete the App, once I re-install all four are there again. Very strange , but at least I know what to do now.Rost said:I received the money today, according to the withdrawal request I submitted.

One thing I won’t be doing is making a small crazy parlay that pays 50,000 times the wager. Even if you hit a miracle , no guarantee they will pay, if I made $10,000 from betting a few cents , wouldn’t expect that to depositedolejean said:It's a pity in general.
I've often passed their 600% wager. They explained that blocked me for their business reasons and not more...
I withdrew $65 and I received a withdrawal confirmation. It's been 6 days and still nothing. I don't see the money yet. I sent a message, it may take a while. As soon as I hear something, I'll let you know, broRory59 said:It’s funny , I posted maybe 1.5 years ago about being worried about withdrawing once I actually won something .

They limited me because I was a winning player. However, that was probably mostly due to sports betting.olejean said:It's a pity in general.

I think I was right to post this, there are definitely issues. I was just planning to have my sports requirement be met 100% this weekend, withdraw that along with any winnings from Saturday’s Level 60-80 and other tournaments . But I had a few $ to spare, and thought “why not try a minimum withdrawal” ? Been almost 24 hours already, got both e-mails as usual, but nothing yet. Like I said, twice they have taken 24 hours, the other 15 times or so it’s been under 15 minutesPoison91 said:I have a problem. I withdrew $65 via bank transfer and they charged me a fee for the international transfer. I sent documentation, credit card information with address, ID, driver's license, and they asked me to send proof or documents from who sent me the money from "Virtual Global." Is this okay?
what am I supposed to do?
It asks me to say who made the transfer to me. Is that valid? What's the point if it was done through a virtual company?Rory59 said:I think I was right to post this, there are definitely issues.

We shall see. The only good news for me is of this tiny amount comes, the next one should be OK as well because it’s small too. But the guys who have 1000’s of $ blocked, and 888 keeps stalling……there is something very wrong
Where do you withdraw money? Withdrawals to a PIX bank account? I withdraw money via NETELLER, and it's instant, but you need to have about 200 reais in NETELLER to be able to send it to your bank in Brazil!bullkk said:Saquei dinheiro recentemente, embora a quantia seja pequena.

Same thing happened to me last week - delete the APP, re-install. Now everything shows up, but the $450, 500, Sportsfan, and even $3,000 Sunday Beach tourney, at one point were not there for mescobido said:I haven't seen any free tournaments on the Android app for at least a week, although I have a few free tickets, I can't find any free tournaments, neither those on cardschat, nor those with deposits, nor satellites, nor sportsfan, nor the 50,200, there were absolutely no freerolls, although I was assured by email that my short games would be occupied. It seems I will look for another site to spend my time in the evening. Why I'm so disappointed is that I tried really hard to get past level 60 to play on that freeroll from the end of the month to level over 60, but even though I passed this level, I wasn't able to play this freeroll because it disappeared from the application.
Good luck and health to everyone !!!
