Pretty similar for me. Requested $4500 about 2 weeks ago from AP and it finally hit my bank today, for a total of 3419 something. Weird.

logged in and updated the software and a notice popped up saying US players weren't allowed to play. Then registered for a SNG and it signed me up.

Don't panic.. my info below since a bunch of ppl thought I was lying when I posted this earlier lol.. American w/ a us bank acct.

You really think these cheating DOUCHE BAGS are going to actually pay?

Yeah same on UB/AP and I am indeed from the US.

I am a regular who plays at UB hence why I post on the UB regulars thread...

Sounds pretty shady to me!

show them your bank statement and tell them to look into it and theyll credit the rest into your account

they should be able to run a trace also, although will prolly take a while w/ current issues obviously..

Yesterday spoke with you in a table, good too know you received the cashout i requested one the same day, obv wasn't as lucky as you lol still pending.
