My paypal got closed while a process was intransit - Page 3 - Global Poker -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Can I get you the funds via PayPal?

Jkjk, I had to. It just seemed too good to pass up.

With that aside, hopefully all of this does get resolved and please let us know how it all works out, if it goes the legal route, or if Global ends up fixing it some other way, or PayPal pulls a reversal.

I am sure you will land on your feet, gl at the tables.

I was wondering about this when I looked into Global. Not your exact example, but same idea.

I PM'd their rep and they told me that I could get paid in other ways than Paypal.

Player balances being wiped out b/c PP closed an account on a whim can't be an option.

I would leave whether or not it is necessary to BeHumble, it is their funds at stake here. But I could see how they could for sure use a PM to take back to Global and point out that in the past the idea of paying someone outside of PayPal was an option, and why has their stance changed.

This story sounds crazy, and I hope it gets resolved. But to me the most interesting part is that you said you won 400-600K on Global. There has been enough high stakes action for you to accumulate that amount of winnings playing in a legit fashion in less 1-2 years? That is crazy impressive.

PayPal is impossible. The reps you deal with there are void of common sense or independent thought. I will say that I sent a PM to one of the Global reps here and they got back to me a month later. I don't think this is a big focus of theirs. Since this is also occurring during the holiday week, good chance they have a skeleton crew there.

I'm assuming he plays full time and ueah 10/20 usually runs throughout the day. This is doable.

Hi BeHumble!

Hope you are well.

You and I have spoken about this matter at great length in the past.

As you are aware we have tried as hard as we can to assist you but your issue is with PayPal

I am not interested in having this conversation on an open forum as your situation is very complicated. I don't want to go into a lot of details here and also don't want to share information about your past account usage. This makes it hard for us to have a balanced conversation in public.

Can contact me through one of the methods that you used six months ago when we resolved this or via a PM on this site.

Thanks

Joey

And this is exactly why you don't play on sites very clearly breaking the law and using PP as a cashout method. "Sweepstakes Poker", yawn.

If a site uses PayPal to process gambling transactions, don't play there.

I agree, and then send to friends - it looks like aiding terrorists, which the USA does not like so makes banking rules to help detect it.

The response and lack of solution are not helpful. BeHumble posted the issue publicly so other players could see clearly how Global would treat the issue (and treat other players if a similar thing happened). You need an alternative cashout method and/or better relationship with Paypal. This situation is disgusting.

Everyone is well aware the only withdrawal method through global is paypal and they clearly can't do anything about that due to the sweepstakes laws they regulate under. This problem isn't even globals fault, it's paypals.

Paypal has now allowed the release of my money and assured me I can continue to do business with them as long as it is solely through VGW holdings, and no non business transfers to friends as those were the red flags that set all this off. Now I'm hoping a rep will unblock my BeHumble account

so was your account froze by GP because of the PayPal issue? If so they should complete your transaction. What I dont understand is they say you had account issues in the past but they still let you play and build up an crazy amount of money. Why even bring it up. Now they want to throw the issues up in the past. IDK maybe Im missing something. I like to see this worked out. I like the site it needs some improvements to the software. Maybe another method for cash outs.
