PokerStars - Converting Live $?

HeyGuys. Few years back I got unregistered for a live tournament that I qualifed to because I couldnt travel for 1000€.
They noted my account that I had 1000€ LIVE dollar, that I could use in any main live main events, but there was no chance to etc get them changed to tournament online dollars, and the catch was also that I had to play in pokerstars clothing for the event I eventually would register for...
My question is, is there anyone in here who has ever gotten dollars out, or atleast T$ in theyre account after qualifing for a live event, and then gotten deregisterd because they couldnt make it?
If so, I would like to hear about it, so I could reffer to this post and try myself
Thank you

have u emailed stars currently to see if anything can be done? if this happened a few years ago and the ticket has been sitting dormant, maybe they will do it as a goodwill gesture. worth a shot anyway

If you don't want to play live events, it probably isn't a good idea to play satellites to live events in the first place.
In addition, it sounds like you already got your "goodwill gesture" by being able to unregister from the event that you initially qualified for.
