Anyone withdraw from 888 recently ? Are they going under. ?

[ramdon p358]

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.

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

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.

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 !

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 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 minutes

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.

I guess the upside is, once I register , they can’t cancel my entry ……

I am not the only one this is happening to . Sportsfan pays 90 places between 300-900 entries . For 2 years it has 100% been 90 spots , sometimes I saw 700+, sometimes 450. Yesterday they had 325 or so, people cannot enter

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 deposited

Last month I withdrew money and everything was standard, as always.

 

[martinoni]

Standard here too

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, bro

This month, I withdrew money twice. There were no problems. Overall, I have to say that over the last 3-4 years, I have never had any problems with withdrawing funds. But if you look at the 888 support thread on CardsChat, you can see and understand that there are many players who have such problems.

Hi - I recently sent you a private request and was wondering if you received it and was able to provide me with an answer. Sent this over for you. Regards

They limited me because I was a winning player. However, that was probably mostly due to sports betting.

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?

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 minutes

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

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?

 

[dreamer13]

Where can they get income from, they blocked so many countries. Some players from Russia made large deposits. They push freerolls so that the players don't run away.There 70% of players play only freerolls, they don’t make deposits, but only withdraw.

 

[rei signo]

Saquei dinheiro recentemente, embora a quantia seja pequena.

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!

 

[Newzooozooo]

So far, I haven't had any problems. But I know from other players that such problems can arise at any moment. 888's support doesn't really work. If you have a problem, no one will be able to help you solve it. 888's attitude towards players is very negligent, and that's upsetting. I consider 888 to be one of the best sites, but the terrible service and support effectively negate all the advantages.

 

[Rory59]

OK , it took 27 hours, but my tiny withdrawal just showed up. I guess 888 isn’t bankrupt yet….Hopefully the next one I do is quicker

What Banco Galicia's COMEX department is asking you to do is justify the origin and purpose of the funds received from Virtual Global Digital Services Ltd.

👉 The SWIFT MT103 receipt you sent isn't sufficient because it only shows the transfer, but doesn't explain:

Who Virtual Global is in relation to you.

Why they're sending you this money (e.g., payment for services, freelance work, product sales, prize, etc.).

The amount must correspond to the declared purpose.

In short: the bank needs supporting documentation (invoice, contract, receipt, platform receipt, etc.) linking Virtual Global Digital Services Lim to you and justifying the USD 65.

📩 Here's a guide message you can forward to the person for guidance:

Suggested message:

Hi, for the bank to release the USD 65, I need you to send me documentation justifying the transfer. A SWIFT is not enough, because they require:

Identification of Virtual Global Digital Services Lim as the sender.

The reason for the payment (for example: provision of services, freelance payment, platform payment, etc.).

Proof of the amount: this can be an invoice, contract, platform payment receipt, or receipt.

With this, the COMEX area of Banco Galicia validates and releases the transaction.

I don't think 888 Poker will give me the details, even if they refund the money to my account and let me withdraw it elsewhere, that's all I ask.

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 !!!

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 me
