Thanks for the reply on this. I'm sure they'll work out the glitches over time but until then, I don't see the harm in making a small deposit to get started. Over on RCP, guys are saying it's the softest network an American can play on, too. I've been playing on BOL and Ignition a lot lately and if Global is any softer, I simply can't miss out on that game selection.

Haven't played on Global in like 5 months. Came back yesterday and the first thing that jumps out at me is NO SOUND of any kind using google chrome (thought my sound card went bad or something). Had to try microsoft edge or whatever as per someone's suggestion (thank you for that whoever it was).

After 5 months of not playing on Global --> the software seems even worse than it was 5 months ago if it's humanly possible.

To me one word describes their software - horrible (lower case because Ignition's software is probably one of the worst of all time and that's their main competition, just freaking brutal)

Cannot deposit. Playing on a Mac. HTTP Status 404-Not Found. I have contacted customer support. Tried every suggestion, cleared cache, history, opened private windows. Tried using different browsers, logged in from my phone. No luck.

Any one have any suggestions?

If you think the mac is the problem, try depositing on your phone. Once the money is there, you should have no problem playing on your mac. I use firefox on my imac to 6 table every day.

If you’re having the same problem from multiple devices, sounds like the issue is with your paypal account. Just my opinion.

I finally was able to deposit. But then today I was playing the $20+$2 $7500Guarentee and the tournament disappeared a few levels in. Still waiting to hear back.

Yikes. This is frustrating to hear. Let's see if GP goes above and beyond.

I just won a seat to Rattlesnake 08-H. The tournament has already started but late reg is still open. I was not automatically registered for the tournament as was supposed to happen, and the ticket is not in my inventory. What to do?

EDIT: It looks like my ticket was used to automatically register for 17-H which is next Sunday. I'm not able to unregister. Very strange that it would register me for next week when my satty was specifically for 08 and registration for 08 had not ended yet. So I'm stuck playing next Sunday. Hope I don't have any plans.

I'm surprised Paypal is allowing Global to use it as a payment processor. Paypal always maintained a strict attitude against gambling, churning, KYC, etc.

Are there instances of Paypal banning accounts that attempt to withdraw winnings (from Paypal -> Wire)? I just started playing on Global and am concerned that a wire withdrawal from Paypal might get my account banned.

That's always a possibility and the risk but hasn't happened yet.

Have anyone ever get this message "Sorry we cant complete your purchase at this time. Please return to merchant and choose another way to pay" when trying to make a deposit?

PayPal
Sorry, we can’t complete your purchase at this time
Please return to the merchant and choose another way to pay.

Is this a Paypal Issue? I dont have any funds in my Paypal Account, I use my linked Debit Card which Ive always used with no issues since my very first deposit.

Why now am I getting this message and not able to make a deposit?
I am getting the same message. Can any oil be help with this?

Does anyone know the maximum amount you can deposit in one day? Is it $500?

This is somewhat disconcerting. I was able to successfully deposit on the 4th. Chrome macOS 10.13.

You are not depositing money. You are using real money to purchase Gold Coins and when you do this you get free $weeps cash. If you choose the $5000 package you receive 25 million gold coins and a bonus of 5000 $weeps cash which is used to play the games you are able to cash out as real money through pay pal. There is no limit to how many packages you purchase per day.

Yeah, I understand how it works. I didn't want to bother with the semantics.

I asked because it seemed like $500 was the highest $weeps cash available for purchase. But if there is no limit to how many packages of these you can buy per day, I guess that answers the question.

You must not know how it works if you think $500 is the highest $weepscash available for purchase. $5000 is the highest package Mr. Semantics.

From the player lobby, if you click on the "buy gold coins", $500 is the highest package. I just learned that if you do it from global's main page, then $5,000 IS the highest package, as you mentioned.

Why don't you enlighten everyone who uses the word "deposit" in relation to global, douche?

I think everyone who uses Chrome is having sound issues. I've been told that sound is ok if you use Firefox.

firefox times out with 1 table running the lag is so bad, chrome has no sound so pick your poison or wait for them to fix it like I have been but seems like im missing a lot of value doing the latter.

I had 3 tables going last night with Firefox and saw no issues. I don't run chrome so I don't know about the sound issues. Still if the lag was on only 1 table, perhaps something else is going on there besides Firefox and Global. Surely these forums would be lit up if everyone was having troubles with having more than 1 table open.

I'm in the lobby and not the main page. I can purchase 5K worth from there. and I am not out to enlighten anyone on the word deposit. In your post it seemed like you were not familiar with the concept that's why I tried to explain it to you, trying to help. You put me down using the word "semantics" and now calling me a douche. You will now receive a 1 round penalty. GG, GL and see you on the felt. No need to reply as you are now dead to me. Good day sir.
