Anyone else a member at PIC Club, the PLayers Investment Club? I am, and I used them a lot to fund my doylesroom and pokerworld acct's in the past. Doyles Room left, and Pokerworld is the only thing I still use pic-club for. Some of you may remember the picclub.com having a payment issue with a few of the merge network sites... He said she said bla bla bla (I have no idea who screwed who and no reason to trust either side), and they ended up only serving the old IGS network sites that were now on merge like FeltStars, and BetonAmerica and a few of those other sportsbooks that offered bogus casino software, the poker client from merge, and some rigged blackjack. Oh yeah, pokerhost was the other exception, they kept on with picclub after they transfered with LOCK and a raft of DHLtd sites from the cake network to the aforementioned Merge Network... Weird and sketchy, but whatevs...
Anyway, as you may know, the system at this membership based e-wallet is that u buy available shares, 1 for $1, and are charged a fee of 5 percent or thereabouts. You can use a share to deposit with any of their merchant members. Then $1 of ur fee is added to ur common shares account.
So you are buying stock in the membership group with every deposit u make. And last year they showed a small profit...
But this year, they are acting funny. I have been having trouble logging in, and when I go to the live chat, they tell me to refresh the page, and then I can login.. But when I can't login and I refresh the page without talking to CSR #28, I still can't login. So friggin weird.
Anyway, December is the time when traditionally a shareholder can sell his/her common shares for a check, or for available shares to use for a deposit at one of the poker or bingo rooms on the site... But this year, after telling me for 11 months that I could opt out and sell in December, they are telling me their financial team has not yet finished computing the shares growth and whatnot.
My instincts are telling me this is a big river bluff, and something is amiss here... Not that it really matters, I mean, to run this analogy into the ground, I don't have a hand to play, and the pot is small. I guess I will just wait to see how it plays out...
Anyone else have any insight?
