nice of you to offer to sell money thats impossible to cashout @ a loss

I don't get the sarcasm. Some may see this as a worthwile investment, depending on the price.

I wouldn't buy your 7k pending cashout for $100.

there is no real money backing your account balance, and you have a <1% chance of ever receiving a cashout

i understand there is already a group with the aim of getting the money back from futurebet (i have $1,175 stuck in pokespoker) but i would really like it if everyone on 2+2 chipped in $10 or so to help a search for the futurebet owners. once found we would make them eat the turd from each person they have stolen money off. for every $500 they stole from a person = 1 turd from that person. would be reasonable i think.

So what's the staus of Futurebet and what does it mean for our money? Bankrupt? Corrupt owners?

Edit: Sorry for the hijack, I just have no information at all about what's going on.

not hard to find out info bout the company if you seach a bit, just very difficult to prosecute them.

that group really hasn't done anything

i had 11.5k in pokes poker as well. it is probably worth a $5 investment as most if someone wanted to buy it.

i don't think the group could have done anything even if it was well organized.

putting any money in an ongame skin is LOL to me. maybe the larger ones you can feel safe with but putting them on a small skin _IS_ risky.

i will never put any money on a site that is not one of the "big" ones ever again.

This is sort of off the record and a very personal reflection but....

"...once found we would make them eat the turd from each person they have stolen money off. for every $500 they stole from a person = 1 turd from that person. would be reasonable i think..."

Where do I chip in?

Back on record...

We've said it a hundred times before, and we will continue to say it a hundred times more. We are tremendously sorry to ever have been affiliated with that organisation, and we've done great damage to our own company and to you players by allowing them to ever operate within the Ongame Network.

Since then, we've spent a lot of effort to ensure we only deal with financially strong and independent companies that are far more than what is normally perceived as a "skin".

Sincerely,

The Ombudsman
Ongame Network

fwiw ive been waiting on a wire transfer from eurobet for over 2 weeks now for a measly 1.8k and they wouldnt let me move another 30k from the poker room to the sportsbook which is a necessary step in the cashout process. im becoming very disconcerted.
