Ernest: Welcome to our online Customer Service! How may I assist you today?
5d1986174: Hello Ernest, do you remember my issue yesterday based on my username?
Ernest: We didn't talk yesterday, so I'm afraid I don't remember the issue
5d1986174: I think it was possibly 2 days ago then, the issue was a poker network issue on an email claiming the tourney finished as normal
Ernest: Oh, that one I remember
5d1986174: a $5 buyin tourney, I threw a fit because I said it was down to the top 7, I was in third, and then site shutdown
5d1986174: Well, you did say their reply in their email said they gave me a refund in tourney dollars
Ernest: Correct
5d1986174: Well, they didn't do that, so it makes me wonder if they are even talking about the right player
Ernest: Your poker username is the same as your account number, so I doubt there could be a confusion
Ernest: If they did not refund you I'll try to talk to them now
5d1986174: lol well if not confusion how do you explain first the main issue, then second
5d1986174: Well, I don't want a refund, I just want to know wtf is going on if they say one thing and don't do it
5d1986174: it adds to credibility that they messed this up entirely
5d1986174: so I'd appreciate it if you asked them, although I don't want a refund since that's not good enough
Ernest: Ok, do you want me to ask them about then refund and then tell them not to credit it?
Ernest: *the refund
5d1986174: Yes, and throw in the player is still claiming he is owned money for finishing in the top 7 without being paid.
5d1986174: I checked the tourney results page later on that morning and it had places 1-7 listed as "finished" without a prize attached to the names
Ernest: Ok...
Ernest: Just a moment, please.
5d1986174: and players 8-36 placed and got paid (with money amounts next to their names)
5d1986174: And you can say "ok..." Ernest but look at my deposit history, and realize in the grand scheme of things the $94 I am owed really is irrelevant given that aspect.
5d1986174: It's the principle of it (I'd hate if this happened on a large tournament) but I can't deposit anymore if this happens, even if it's $94.
Ernest: Just a moment, please.
5d1986174: Alright. Thanks.
Ernest: Still working on this
Ernest: Please hold
5d1986174: alright, np
Ernest: do you still have the tourney number, sir?
Ernest: about the refund, they said it was done at 12/13/2013 5:28:44 PM
5d1986174: Well I can look at my account and see the TB I can redeem was at $2 and it still at $2
Ernest: On the poker side, obviously
5d1986174: No I don't have the tourney ID, but since that I have only played one other $5 tourney
5d1986174: They tournament started 12/10 sometime late at night
5d1986174: that tourney starts at 11:00 PM EST according to the tourney listings
5d1986174: so 12/10 at 11:00 EST is the tourney
5d1986174: Sorry I'm not more helpful with the tourney id, I didn't think I'd have to deal with something like this and I did get on chat the next morning after the site shutdown/update
Ernest: Let me see what I can do with the information
Ernest: Just a moment, please.
5d1986174: thanks
Ernest: Solved!
Ernest: Please check your poke account
5d1986174: Can I get an explanation please?
5d1986174: Since it was basically made out to look like I was either delusional as **** or full of ****?
Ernest: Not really, I offered you to check again with them two days ago and you said "forget it, I'll try through 2+2"
5d1986174: lmao
5d1986174: Do you blame me?
5d1986174: "uh i haven't been paid for a top 7 I was in" "no sir you didn't finish in the top 7" "um what?"
Ernest: No, my point is that nobody made it our to look like you were delusional
Ernest: *out
Ernest: Anyway
5d1986174: Thank you.
Ernest: They said the tourney indeed had a problem
5d1986174: well, I know this is going to be a stretch lol
Ernest: All 7 players were paid, except for you
Ernest: due to a "human mistake"
5d1986174: "lol"
5d1986174: they paid me too much though
Ernest: They apologized to me for the inconvenience
Ernest: and I give you my sincere apologies
Ernest: they did?
5d1986174: I have an extra $158 in my account for that tourney, and depending on their formula for that situation, I should of only been paid either $94 or $113
5d1986174: Yes
5d1986174: 3rd place was $94, which I was in
Ernest: They said it's $158.08
5d1986174: and if they did it by chip share based on the prize pool left, I should of won #113
Ernest: is that not correct?
5d1986174: $113*
5d1986174: it's not
Ernest: Let me check with them
5d1986174: Yeah it'd be nice to take the free money but I didn't just throw fits to then not follow what's right in a sense
Ernest: I really appreciate your honesty
5d1986174: either way, no need to apologize to me Ernest, but thank you very much (and sorry for the emotional response yesterday)
Ernest: Let me inform them to see what they say
5d1986174: or two days ago*
5d1986174: ok
Ernest: They assure me that's the correct prize
5d1986174: lol just like they assured you to begin with I was wrong.
5d1986174: but fine, whatever
5d1986174: between you and I, I know for sure what my prize would of been (either option) so oh well
5d1986174: I thank you again though
Ernest: Not a problem
Ernest: You're welcome
5d1986174: Hopefully it doesn't happen again, but given this experience who really knows
5d1986174: Take care
Ernest: You do the same
Ernest: Thanks for choosing us. Have a great day!
