Doesn't really make sense to ask you to register a new bank account just to withdraw your funds, I mean what are you supposed to do, open a new bank account in a foreign country just to withdraw some poker funds? In my opinion they are obligated to let you withdraw using a regular method and you should only register a new bank account if you wish to continue playing.

This. Plus is pretty obvious they are more confused than us as far as this situation goes. The complete lack of replies its simply unacceptable.

EU citizen can open EU bank account in some german banks, french etc. But every bank I tried required me to visit their branch in person. Winamax told me remaining funds will be transfered to my registered (Czech) bank account automatically with miles converted on 2nd of January.

Also, if anybody has Fio Bank in Czech, you can convert that to Slovakia bank account. The same account works, just need to generate different IBAN here http://www.nbs.sk/sk/platobne-system...et-iban-pre-sr

That's what I was thinking about as well. Was it just for players who had a registered address in Austria or players with an Austrian bank account?

Stars.FR and Winamax.FR are two separate sites. However logic it would be for both to obey the same laws, its not the case. I can play on Winamax just fine for the time beeing, not on Stars.FR as an Austrian(or with an Austrian bank account)

Has anyone gotten an e-mail to confirm they have withdrawn your entire balance?

yes, I got 2 emails from 2 withdrawals. one possibly for bonus miles.

It felt a bit short, I requested a cashier audit as well, although I'm sure it was fine, just thought I had ~500 euro more and wasn't able to login to verify

Hi, I was just informed that I need to change the bank account in another country. You could list in which countries it now has the certainty that there are no problems for winamax? I'm interested in the cash-out profile and not the one where you play. Thank you.

Absolutely love everything you're doing and this series is amazing. Win the button 6max was my most favorite tournament of all time and hope you add more of those.
What i would suggest is simply making it more clear how the multi day tournaments work exactly because the way you set them up currently is very confusing.
I saw many people sitting out because I assume they did not understand which is really day 1 or 2.
I was also one of those people.. I made day 2 of the 30e collossus with top 5 stack after playing one of the early Day 1's. Now where the confusion lies is how you worded the next days. If you opened the lobby , it would say Day 2 is on Tuesday the 17th and in that sentence , Day 2 actually means day 3. When the 2nd day was actually on Monday the 16th. You treated all the starting flights as Day 1s , and then when you make it to the next stage/day, you still called it another Day 1.
It was really sad to have a 1.2mill at BB10k go to waste but I tilt regged everything the day after and won one so I guess it's ok :P Im pretty excited for another bottle of champagne , absolutely love that little bonus you give out for winning.

On a side note I believe there is a lot you can do to your daily schedule , I think the Highroller should become a Progressive Knockout on some days ( Thursday-Saturday) since that format attracts players a lot. I think you can also add a lot of Win the button tournaments around peak time since overall winamax players are quite agro and love the format

Wow, a poker rep that actually insists on players giving feedback!

Enjoyed your series the most, as always. Very good job Winamax! Best site out there, no doubt in my mind. Keep it up

Ha awesome, thanks for the interest but was referring to the OP not to your series.

If there's one thing I'd suggest you spread out the 8pm CET events, which sometimes look a la PartyPoker (6 starting at same time slot). Its peak hour for most and its extremely hard to have 6 tables pop at same time. Esp when late regging is "verbotten" on Winamax.
