The 888poker situation
Why no one talks about what is going on with 888poker? They steal from customers, I really don't know how these guys still have a gambling licence. This is a site who have partnership with WSOP.
Hundreds of players have their accounts closed and their bankrolls seized with no explanations. 2+2 and the 888 reddit subs are filled with stories of distressed customers.
How do they proceed? Your account is verified for years but one day you request a withdraw, they block your account and ask you to send verifications documents again (ID , utility bills) , the exact same documents you sent in the past. They keep you blocked for weeks and then inform you that they will discontinue your membership and keep your money, and they can't give you any explanations, and you can't contact them anymore.
888 poker has always been a scammy site, but it seems the turning point is 2022-2023 when they were fined 10 millions $ by Gambling commission for social responsability failures and money laundering. Few years ago they also got fined 8 millions $ .
888 has the worst support and technical team in the industry.
888poker has very very scammy moves. For example the Player for player transfer is converted in bonus money. Yeah you heard me right , someone sends you 500$ , you are not going to receive 500$, it will be bonus money that you have to unlock by playing months, lol.
Few years ago I won on 888 a satellite for a live event, they did not contact me or answer any of my emails regarding the event, and 2 days before the event starts they sent me documentations and the money to arrange my trip. I am dead serious.
And I could tell much more other stories about them. I play poker for 15 years , played on many different poker sites I have never seen something like this. 888 gambling licence should be revoked. The medias need to talk about the 888 situation and inform potential future victims. If you don't believe me check this forum in the online section, and the 888poker sub reddit .
