PurePoker did a hit-and-run?

[TrixSlice]

I'd like to clear something up. He did not say I had to play Poker. I just mentioned that I play poker and he said if I wanted I could play with $1,000 for now. It sounded like a "you help me I help you situation".

I don't feel like my funds are secure, and I wont until at least my deposit is sitting back in my NETeller.

I just tried to login to play some Poker and my account is disabled again. It was working after he called me and placed $1,000 in the account but now I am completely cut off from my money.

Just wanted to keep everyone informed. Can those who were offered Poker still login?

This is the deal. You are owed both your deposit and winnings. Same goes for anyone else. If some dude on the phone is offering you anything different - tell him to forget it. You are owed both your deposit and winnings, anything less is unacceptable. Period.

He wasn't really making a deal with us. He was basically just saying THIS is what we've got and THIS is what you'll get. Since I cashed my deposit out awhile ago, I was told there was no $ for me.

Quite the talker Tino is .... What's scary is the rest of my balance was *cashed* out to nowhere...

Lol, yeah, he can talk.

My balance was also "withdrawn to cash" (not MY cash.. I guess it's Tino's cash), except the $200, which was put in the account (and which is still in limbo itself)

If he's making EXTRA PROFIT off of our already considerable losses, that's even less acceptable than the original situation. I hope CM is right and FutureBet steps in and clears things up, because so far it there appears to be no sign of them, nor even the promised partial money from Tino (and I had a bit over $1000 in confiscated winnings that I could really use right about now)

Well, now my account is disabled again. I tried to log on to see if my cash was also withdrawn to "who knows where" and I got this message:

The requested user account has had poker disabled. If you feel this message is in error, Please contact customer service for assistance.

It is like I took one step forward and then two steps back (after being pushed)

I tried to contact live support, but, as ususal, they were "too busy" to answer.

The CEO from Futurebet will be contacting me sometime later today. He says they have a plan. Hang tight.

(P/T)ino called me last week during dinner and I asked him to call me back the next day. Still haven't heard back. Does anyone have an email/phone for him?

I obviously won't take any deals yet, but I want to know whats going on at least. I feel clueless!

Will do and thanks. I take it there's no update yet?

[TrixSlice]

I emailed him because my Poker account was 'inactive' as I posted ealier. He replied that with all the negative postings he's been reading he may be backing out of the deal. Sounds like he's dumping PurePoker too.

All I want is my damn deposit back now.

After quite some time and several chasers *Pino* finally responded last night, emailing from PurePoker in answer to specific questions we put to him.

Unfortunately, he didn't address any of those questions or for that matter anything of significance. He wanted to talk on the telephone, which we don't do because it leaves too much room for *misunderstandings* and *misquotes* later. It's better to have everything on the record.

It's a strange thing how upfront and professional operators generally have no problem putting their point of view across in writing and on the record - it's usually the questionable guys who want to "talk this over off the record" LOL

I think we are more likely to see a resolution of this from FutureBet than Pino, although I can't understand why this very clearcut case is taking them so long to sort out.
