Can anyone point me in the right direction to do research on this?
Well, Google search for one, but I can save you some time with that. Your available funds are $0.00. Not the news you hoped for, but gone.

I have another account. I forgot the password. I quit playing and coming here after they shut down US players. But now we can play again I would like to use my account again. My old account is registered to an email from a company I used to own and run. I closed the company and shut down the email/website. How can I change the email on my other account to my current email.

Fair enough, I'll clean that up. How about your first question? I've re-asked my follow-up below:

Pokerstars PA banned my account for unusual recent activity lol. Maybe i lost a little too much but i am under the impression they cannot reverse this and I'll never be able to use the site again?

Hey all,

Please excuse me as this is my first post. I recently had my pokerstars pa account closed due to "unusual financial activity" aka I went on a massive downswing and kept reloading over a stretch of roughly 1 week.

I am under the impression my account is banned permanently and cannot create another? Is this correct?

Any help/input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

What happened? Kind of scary they have the power to do this assuming you weren't doing something stupid??

I admittedly went on a massive downswing and deposited roughly $1k in a week or less after usually only depositing $100 periodically. They temporarily closed my account saying even if its not a financial issue, it might be problematic spending too much time on the site (weird as I was only playing long stretches on Fri&Sat night, surely others do the same).

Then I got a follow up email saying they chose to permanently close my account and cannot reopen for any reason.

PG wins it - rivers a FH.

On his own site, too! From being 1 million Euros down, he makes a "miraculous" comeback to win the Challenge on his own site by rivering a FH in the last 70 hands! He must be absolutely stoked.

Excellent job, PG - GG!

Hello,
I am playing on new Pokio mobile poker site, my account has been already verified (so I thought) like on normal sites (ID and so), but today I received this email :
--------------------------
"Due to the EU-regulations it is our obligation to conduct the enhanced due diligence of our customers. Therefore, we kindly ask you to send us the proof of your stated source of wealth or source of income. For this purpose, any of these documents would serve:

your monthly payslip;
proof of your business income;
any other document showing your source of income/funds.

The document must be a scan of original or certified true copy.

For security reasons you are required to provide the above documents within 30 days from receiving this message. In case of failure of such compliance it is our obligation to suspend your account until you can provide us with the necessary information."
--------------------------
What do you think about it? I am playing there soft cash games just for profit. Do you suppose it could be targeted to pro players to just leave them so only recs will stay? I dont know, but it seems very unconventional to want your source of income....to determine what, if I am broke, unemployed or just playing poker professionally and then ban me?
Thank you for your answer, community. This is my first post I think.
Be healthy.
(sorry for slavic english)

Thanks Bobo. I think I am screwed. I sent you an email with "proof" of my old email. Help me out if possible. If not thanks for your time.

Google "enhanced due diligence". You'll find, for instance: https://www.gamblingcommission.gov.u...ce-advice.aspx

I am looking specifically for people who have started home poker groups online since the quarantine started. Seems to me there is a little boom going on with friends playing online together.

Article would appear in SoCal News Group sites and publications (LA Daily News, OC Register, etc)

Anyone?

Apologies if this violates any board rules or is in the wrong forum.

Just a brief question but I've asked PokerStars a couple of times to send over all my hands at a certain limit/timeframe (usually the last month or week or so) and for some reason they now say that they can no longer do that.

My understanding was they used to be more than happy to send you over the Hand Histories in a zip file which you could then enter into your HEM or PokerTracker as normal?

The frustrating thing though is they won't tell me why there's been a change or if and when they'll once again resume being able to send hand histories over.

Is it because of the virus? Is the feature likely to return?

Just wondered if anyone knew really. It's not the biggest deal in the World but I can't quite understand why they're no longer able to do it.

Hi guys,

I haven been trying to get in contact with Pokerstars, but without any succes, for almost 2 weeks now. Tried multiple Pokerstars mail adresses and twitter, no response.

Almost 2 weeks ago, when i was trying to logon into my account, there came a pop-up which stated that my account is frozen, and that i need to contact Stars by e-mail.

I obviously immediately contacted stars, but as i saod, with no succes. I did not receive any correspondence regarding the reason of mu blocked/frozen account. Account has substantial funds in it.

Ridiculous way of business if you ask me. I obviously did not multi account or any other shady business with my account. Woth SCOOP coming i really want to use my account.

Does anyone have tips or advice regarding way of contacting Pokerstars?

Thx in advance!

Greetings.

My account was frozen a month ago. I wrote a letter to support PokerStars. They haven't answered for a month. What to do? How do I speed up the response?
