teneight 1 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Due to changes in policy, North American customers are no longer allowed to play for real money at PokerShare. We have initiated a withdrawal for you in check form, but given the amount of funds you had in your account, I would like to give you the opportunity to change the receipt of funds from check to another method.Unfortunately we do not have a phone number for you on file so we’ll need to rely on email. If you do not wish to receive your withdrawal by check, please reply to this email and give us your preferred withdrawal method no later than 6 p.m. ET on November 2nd, 2005. If we do not hear from you by that time, a check will be FedEx’ed to the address we have on file for you.Request by Wire – Please provide the following:Bank Name, Address, PhoneName on AccountAddress and Phone number associated with name on accountSWIFT #Account #Your phone number for verificationRequest by Neteller or Firepay – Please provide the following:Verify the email account associated with their Neteller or Firepay Accounts.

Cadam11 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 You got more than I did, granted I didnt just score like you did but I had about 2k in there. I got a reply saying they already sent the check out. I also wish they would stop moving this to the online poker, just incase someone doesnt read that forum. Link to post Share on other sites
GodOfEntropy 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Good for you - I just emailed them about this but I have a pittance in there compared to both of you. Did you email them at the ecom-arts address? Link to post Share on other sites

jlgosse 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I'm confused, my friend got the same email.Why did pokershare shutdown in the US? Link to post Share on other sites
GodOfEntropy 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I got this email from pokershare:Several players who had balances of under $500 but more than $100 have requested that they receive their money sooner than what regular mail will allow. To accommodate this request, we will be sending allchecks $50 and over via FedEx. As your withdrawal is $50 or more, youcan now expect to see your funds arrive via FedEx to the address we haveon file for you.and this from my rakeback provider:Just wanted to give you more updates on pokershare.. This is what I know:This was a COMPLETE Surprise to pokershare, they never saw it coming.. I talked to them 3 hours ago, they never mentioned it. This was done by UBs holding company.. Pokershare hopes to have this reversed but im not holding my breath.For now, don't cashout to pokershare, because, they closed our account to so we simply cannot pay there.

kouta43 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 cancel the check? Link to post Share on other sites
Don Giovanni 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 cancel the check?poker sites dont take personal checks. this was a cashiers check, you cant cancel those can you? if you can yea ill do that but i thought those things were just like cash or something.

teneight 1 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 no, i'm still getting the rakeback I earned, but since I wont be playing on pokershare anymore, I will be losing out on a great deal that I had going on with them It took them a few min. to response since they considered me a high volume player after my big win...i guess that's how the big dogs roll Link to post Share on other sites
teneight 1 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Dear XXXXXXXXXWe do apologize for the inconvenience. Your withdrawal has been sent via neteller and the check sent to your has been destroyed.We do apologize for the inconvenience.Sincerely,Janeanother email from them. I love how the used the word "destroyed". I wonder if they got a cherry bomb and went outside the Ultimate bet/poker share offices and blew it up on the parking lot...hahaha Link to post Share on other sites
GodOfEntropy 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Yeah, sounds about right.I'm also pretty sure UB shut them down because they were losing alot of customers to share?I think this is probably dead-on...I do not see much of a future for any skins of the major sites. It seems like once they become too successful, the licensing site cuts them off. Link to post Share on other sites
