[888poker] (ROW) Official Players' Thread - Page 1041 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Hi I tried to register to 888 but had issues and could not make an account.
I think it may have something to do with i tried to make an account previously when was signing up through a rakeback affliate but never completed the sign up process. so I do not currently have an account on 888 and cant get one or do i have an aco**** but I do not know what the details are and have never played a single game on the site so do not know what to do here.

888 have "optimized" their bonus policy again. They have introduced 0.5$ Hand Of The Day bonus and You will loose it when You make withdrawal (despite promise that only deposit bonuses will be forfeited) . NICE! KEEP IT UP ! GOOD WORK!!

I suppose a useless bonus of $0.5 is no worse than a useless bonus of $1. Maybe the 888 logic behind it is, the users won't care, it is useless either way.

I guess the empty tables will tell the story of the users' actual opinions of the way the site has gone over the last 2 years.

888Rep, There were 3-4 tables in hyperturbo sngs lobby of each limit ($10,20,30,50). Today there is only 2 tables of each. While in turbo sngs there is the same amount as it was. Please return them back.

Awarding bonuses that most players will never use is ridiculous enough but players are leaving in their droves. The snap games are dying at levels above 10nl compared to what they were like three weeks ago.

We apologize to any players who experienced connectivity issues earlier today. Some tournaments were cancelled and players were refunded. Our customer support team is committed to helping anyone in need of further assistance. Our Poker Room is back up and running now. Unfortunately some of tonight’s freezeout events were cancelled due to the technical issues. The rest of the series and of course the Main Event will run as scheduled.

Regards

I’ve been disconnected 3 times an hour for the last 4 hours today. When the client does reconnect the disconnected message is still displayed and won’t go away unless I close the client down.

Had a couple deep runs in tournaments and I can’t check the lobby because it says I’m disconnected even though I’m still playing.

Getting to the point now where I think it’s time to find a new site.

, that way 888 is saving 1000$ in short term and short term is only period they care.

1) I don't understand why you say only answer the email they sent me .. I always sent and answered .. I sent more than 200 emails requesting that my case be reviewed and they return my money and they only repeat that they won't open my account .. I claim my money ... 2) impossible to be in contact with 888poker if they do not directly answer my emails, I only claim the money that was stolen from me, as evidenced by the evidence sent by other players

They just keep finding new ways.

I did just get a $20 casino bonus. No doubt I have to clear about $2000 in wagering to clear it. Could be a challenge as I have 0 interest. Looks like that is the direction they are trying to take it. Virtually every decision for the poker side of the site in the last 2 years has been to the detriment of the of the players.

I stand corrected. I was getting a cancelled message earlier (for the other freerolls too.) Open now after I restarted the app. Just a glitch.

The field is much, much smaller though so seems like the tickets have finished.

Forgive me if this has been discussed already, but will the Hand of the Day bonuses be forfeited upon withdrawal or not? I believe there was some speculation about this earlier. On the Rewards tab it says on some bonuses that "this bonus will be forfeited upon withdrawal", but on the H.o.t.D bonuses there is no such message.

You are confirming that 888poker supports scams and thefts of these and many players .. I see that I am not the only one who thinks that, there are millions of messages in this room where they talk about player scams and you support that, you directly close the accounts of the people who are really correct and then close the accounts of the scammers they keep their money and do not return the money to the injured people. What kind of room are they? What kind of service do they give? This really cannot stay like this, I am currently communicating with an attorney to be able to make the corresponding claim. know
