I'm thinking about taking the plunge and requesting a check again. Last one took forever, and Western Unions are actually going thru really fast right now at least for me. Can you have a check and a western union cash out at the same time? Lock let me do it before because they were so far behind, but is this typical today?

Feel free to report and/or submit a complaint about Lock Poker to your local, state, or federal authorities. They are stealing from you guys and you don't even realize it: http://calvinayre.com/2013/04/27/pok...s-all-is-well/

I just emailed lock and asked them since they are not wanting to pay me if they would go ahead and add funds to my account so I could transfer money to a player who would pay me for .55 on the dollar and said the least they could do since I been waiting so long is pay the vig on this, **** this is irritating and just ridiculous to say the least.

I've posted this a few times already but I waited 6 months for a cashout, never got it. Eventually they put the money back into my poker account. I tilted it all away in HU games that night since I knew I would never see that money anyways.

Requested and received confirmation of cashout on January 10, 2013. I was told 6-8 weeks. I emailed support 4 times over the next months and was told they are trying to straighten out processor issues. I know I haven't waited as long as some of you but I want to speak my mind.

Lock Poker is a bunch of crooks. They are using the circumstances and lack of accountability exposed by Black Friday to steal the money of poker players. Do not deposit or play on their site.

I don't understand how others can cancel their withdrawal requests, have the money put back into their poker account and tilt-off their rolls. That is admitting defeat. We should all just stick together, wait this out and, when the times comes, sign the class-action lawsuit petition.

Refuse to play. Tell others to refuse to play. Don't cancel the withdrawal and have the money added to your poker accounts. If you can't cashout then winning is meaningless so you can either lose all your money or win and then try to deal with cashing out later. Either way we're eff'ed so it's best to stick together and hope for justice when the time comes.

Been 5 months and still nothing. I cant believe these guys still have the audacity to keep emailing me deals and promotions and posting ads even on this forum while scamming all of us...So what happens after I get my check if I ever get it that is..will it even go through or bounce and if it bounces do I wait another 6 months to a year...So ***** sick of these scammers
04-27-2013 , 11:11 PM
I cant stand logging on to this site to see all the people still playing not knowing what lock is doing to them...I dont want these ****ers to take any more of our money and it must stop now...I say we start posting on every cash table and tell everybody to stop playing and direct them to this thread.I see this site going down pretty soon and there taking all the they can before they go down
04-28-2013 , 01:28 AM

i have one withdraw that was verified on 3/30

im debating cancelling it and just playing with the money. i seem to have lost it anyway might as well have fun while losing it
04-28-2013 , 02:30 PM
Might I ask for the forum's advice:

Should I wait until the long pending cashout I have clears (or something) before starting another cashout, or should I just cashout my Lock account now?

Also, do you guys think that Lock tracks who states on forums like these "I will stop playing" and puts their cashouts on the bottom of the list? I could see them doing this profitably for both big stake and small stake players.

I want to state that I don't blame Shane for these cashout problems. I believe he's doing the best he can, given that he has chosen to work for Lock. That "given" is a key phrase though.

Shane, please help us get our money! Then maybe get out of Lock.

Your money is gone...the ponzi is about to collapse
04-28-2013 , 02:56 PM
What a bummer! I guess I'll get some popcorn. If anyone knows how to create good legal documents and gather a thousand signatures, I'll sign the thing.
04-28-2013 , 05:11 PM
You really think "shane" really gives a **** about your money?
04-28-2013 , 05:17 PM
Feels like black friday all over again

Actually, have fun while winning after cancelling your w/d. It might prove worthwhile. Choice Poker had the same problems as Lock many years ago. They stopped paying players, kept accepting deposits, allowed players to continue to play. After a long time, everyone realized nobody was getting paid by Choice so players stopped depositing and new players were warned. Finally Choice management admitted they couldn't pay anyone but they were going to try to sell assets and offset players balances in the future with what they get.

Nobody believed it. They still let people play on the site though with their present balances. So most players just played their balances like it was play money. I kept playing these people and accumulated what they were giving away through poor play.

A year or so later I got an email from Choice Poker that said my balance was now at Americas Card Room and I could withdraw after a modest play through. I always thank myself for not assuming the balances at Choice were play money like everyone else did.

Just a warning, you never know what might happen in the future.

Well said. I definitely believe that nobody should go tilt their Lockdollars away.

Anyone have any suggestions about whether to start a new withdrawal or to wait until my current one either fails or goes through? Thanks.

Has anyone received a check recently? I have been told my check is on the way for over a month it was requested 12-24. Guess thats what happens when people running a site are over there heads.

Haven't posted in a couple weeks here and wanted to let people know that it's surprisingly because I still haven't received my check. About to hit the 5 month mark in a week.

I hope in the coming months that I start seeing people post that they received their check from the 3/14/13 email.

Edit: Thread topic title should be changed to 4 or 5 month minimum wait.

Without trying to pass any judgment, I get pretty tilted when I read all of this depressing news regarding an obvious scamsite, and then at the same have to look at banners from 2+2 promoting a 'grind for glory' action from Lock Poker. I understand that 2+2 to a certain extent is a business that needs sources of income, but I also always thought of 2+2 as a place of integrity, where scammers and thiefs get outed. It just seems like a shame that Lock Poker is still being promoted here while so many 2+2 members are visibly upset and losing their money. Perhaps it's not my place to comment on this, in which case I apologise

I signed on to lock precisely because 2+2 had lock banners. I thought I could trust Lock because 2+2 allows them to advertise.
