Somehow I missed the thread and press releases where it was announced that the criminal charges against Scheinberg had been dropped, or that he personally had paid any fine.

Link please?

I must of missed it. Anyways, I think some cheques might make it out before Xmas

I do agree, I think that accounts over say 30kish? might take a little bit longer, but I do think that the smaller amounts if the process goes smoothly and everythin gets verified shouldnt take too long. Step 1 of applications being turned in is complete, and now step 2 of finding the right 3rd party is in the works. I think that step 2 is huge, as for the matter that the DOJ will have guidelines laid out as to what will need to be done and then hen they find that 3rd party that can process these small amounts quickly will make a lot of poeple happy and everything is under way.

this thread is hilarious. all i see is spew spew spew. everyone has an opinion, no one actually knows. lolol. really this thread should just be locked until something of substance happens.

You just described ~80% of the poker media. Also, welcome to NVG. You know what it stands for right?

1 week down on the hiring process hopefully 1 more to go than they can start the application process. Maybe I'm a bit naive but if you have an acct with hardly any transfers and no cashout issues don't see why this would take longer than a month to get your money.

There are other threads dedicated to facts/big updates only - nobody is forcing people to read this. There is nothing wrong with opinions - without people's opinions (no matter how stupid you may think they are) 2P2 wouldn't exist, nor would it be nearly as entertaining as it currently is.

Personally, I like reading people's opinion's on this matter because pretty much every different angle is covered.

Nobody has even been hired yet afaik.

shouldn't take too much longer for them to hire 1 week-3 week max

They would have to rate the different companies, check them out and so on. If only 1 applied, then it wouldn t take long. If 10 applied, then it would taake longer. Its not a quick process

Yeah, im sure it will be blowing up 2+2 when it happens.

Wouldn't it be great if Full Tilt funds were paid back......................at Christmas.

Remember last December when that fool said that? Hahahaha. I wish I could find that post....Lol. Dream dream dream. It won't be happening in 2012, and the money that gets paid in 2013 will be far far less than most expect. I told you.

Remember when you told us there would be no deal and no money ever? I wish there was a 2p2 policy where when someone trolls an event for months and is proven wrong they are perma-banned.

Just stop responding dude, youre letting him win

What is the best number to contact the relevant parties within the DOJ/SDNY about remission? Going to contact them on Monday. Thanks.

why would you call them when there has been no plans released yet?

Because I'm curious and have 5 minutes to spare.

You know you will not really get new information and it will not speed anything up.

From post #447 in this thread:

But you'll probably just get forwarded to a pre-recorded message. I'd be surprised if you can convince anyone to call you back.

April 15th, 2011 until September 9th, 2012. Not a penny returned. Thousands of hours wasted checking message boards for many, so if you invested 1,000 hours thinking about getting your money you are stuck 10K just on man hours alone.

If you think those with huge balances are just going to get a check then you are a delusional madman who needs help. There is ZERO CHANCE that those so-called high rollers who transfer around tens of thousands to one another are getting anywhere near what they think.

If someone makes phantom deposits of 20K, and that money is never deducted from his bank account, then he transfers the money to another player, do you think that the other player is getting a check for 20K?

Weeeeeeeeeee. Keep thinking like that and you will be getting a big surprise and a stocking full of coal for Christmas. The only people who should expect anything close to their balance are the small timers who are getting a few hundred (if they are net LOSERS). even then, they can't win, as they have undoubtedly wasted many hours thinking about, and checking message boards, since April 15th, 2011.

People are dreaming. The big shock is coming and it will be nasty. I am stunned that most of you think that someone who makes a phantom deposit and transfers the money to another means that the other player will get an check with no questions asked. Haha.

Thanks. And yes, I am fully aware I probably won't learn anything or even talk to a human.

LOL!

Why are people discouraging you from calling the feds? There has never been enough of this throughout the years imho

It sounds like you are very knowledgeable and have some great inside information!

I miss Buh updates...
