Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
Just spoke with CS at sunpoker. As of today, they are closing all US accounts, and sending a check. She said it would take 4 weeks to get it. Wish I would have withdrawn earlier. Sorry if this one was already mentioned.

Re: Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
My account isn't locked. Can someone else confirm theirs is locked before I initiate my cashout? I've still got bonuses to clear on Sun Poker and would hate to fall victem to a prank if that's what this is.

Re: Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
The rumors have been that today would be the day Crypto would shut down access to Ecash for their US customers. I still have access to my account at this moment. I am taking the bulk of my balance out, and leaving a little to work off some bonuses while I can. Not going to take the risk of having $1.5k tied up for a month... especially after seeing how Littlewoods handled their US account closures. (I'm STILL waiting for that check.)

Re: Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
I received this email:
I'm not sure if you're aware of the recent developments in US online gaming industry. In short, the US government has passed a law that would prohibit banks, credit card companies, and other financial institutions from processing gambling funds. This controversial act was attached to a popular and completely unrelated bill regarding Port Security (HR 4954) early Saturday morning. In this way, the act was passed because representatives were more concerned with the major bill being made law and knew only in the final minutes of the attachment. It does not make it illegal for US citizens to play online, however drastically affects your ability to enjoy your favorite poker and casino games by making it difficult to send and receive your deposits and winnings. In light of these events, our software and ECash provider for Omni Casino: CryptoLogic and ECashDirect, have recently made the decision to no longer service US registered accounts. Consequently, all accounts with US based addresses will no longer be able to play in the casino or poker room as of 12PM EST today October 3rd. Your account will however be available for you to log into and request a withdrawal of your available balance. All other accounts with non US based addresses will remain unaffected. Currently it is unclear as to the longer term ramifications of these events at CryptoLogic and should the position change, we will notify you. Our sister casino 49er Casino (http://www.49ercasino.com) uses a different provider, Real Time Gaming (RTG), has indicated their commitment to continue before. Persons from all geographical areas are still able to register new accounts, collect the 100% new player and other bonuses, and continue to enjoy their favorite casino games. The preferred deposit method is with NETeller however other methods are available. Thanks for your time. Regards Customer Service Team Omni Casino http://www.omnicasino.com PS: We continue to maintain that it is your individual right to be allowed to play online responsibly in another form you see fit. We therefore invite you to contact your Congressman (or woman) to express your dismay as to not only the bill itself, but as to the underhanded way in which it was passed. |

Re: Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
I cashed out my Sunpoker account yesterday, but have not received any money into my Neteller account yet. I'm at work and can't check if my account has been locked or not.
I have a few hundred in Poker Plex as well and have been waiting on a PIN # to cash that money out. I might have to call them this evening to figure out what to do there. |

Re: Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
Hmmm, looks like they haven't blocked US players yet, I can still sit down and play. I'm more than halfway through completing the monthly bonus, looks like it's time to plow through that.

Re: Sunpoker account locked...mailing check
Weird, I just tried logging again, and was able to successfully get in. I was able to request a Neteller withdrawal. Lets see if they actually process it.

I was able to get into my IP account and cashout but couldn't get into my Sun account.
