Hi guys

It might be just me but I tried cashing out on this website and had extreme difficulty and they never respond when you try and contacting them via email and instant chat.

Has anyone else experienced any problems?

I think its a scam website

It definitely isn't a scam site (same people behind it as 24hpoker which has been around since forever). I will ask our contact to look into your withdrawal problems!

NEVER should a poker player need a moderator from another site to step in and inquire about their withdrawal in order to get the ball rolling on said withdrawal. Absolutely, 100% NEVER.

On a different note, I remember years ago on this site when a PitBull Poker rep was allowed on these forums defending their site's legitimacy allllll the way up until the same day the Costa Rican government stepped in and raided their headquarters and shut them down for being 100% a scam site. This rep was allowed to post here, convincing others to go ahead and deposit and also lose money to PitBull Poker when it was shut down. This site was also around for years before being exposed/shut down.

Guess my point is, just because it's been vouched for here does NOT mean it's legitimate... And sticking your neck out guaranteeing it's def. not a scam site is seriously asking for big embarrassment.

I wish all sites would pay out as quick as they take in. The sooner we get some protection from regulation the better.

Hi all,

My name is Sami Kurvinen and I'm the affiliate manager at iGame.com.

I hope that you enjoyed our Patrik Antonius promotion. There will be more interesting promotions in the future on iGame.

Now to these serious allegations. We haven't experienced any issues in paying our players when they withdraw their funds from our site. This is always done within maximum 24 hours.

If there is any player that have experienced any problems or delays with their withdrawals then please email me directly on sami.kurvinen@igame.com and I will investigate in the matter immediately. Worth mentioning is that in some cases we require further information about a player, such as copy of ID and/or possible credit card. But after these documents are cleared (once), the withdraws are processed immediately.

Best regards,

Sami Kurvinen
Affiliate manager

Hi guys

Thought I would give everyone an update on the cashout problem.

Thankfully it has all been a big misunderstanding earlier today iGame contacted me apologizing for any problems caused and sorted out the withdrawal.

I think I was just worried as I had tried to cash out over a week ago and received no notification confirming my withdrawal amount and hadn't received any payment into my bank account.

Then when trying to use the instant chat, and sending email and not getting a response with an update on the situation this added to my concerns.

Now its been sorted out to my relief, and I'm glad no one else experienced any problems with the website so I'm sure it was just a one off incident.

I agree with a site never should need to step in, and I don't think it's needed here either - I just offered to have a look and see if there was anything I could do. The people behind iGame run by far the biggest rooms on the Entraction (IGT network) and they have stepped in and paid players even when other skins on the network have mismanaged. Players can be completely sure of getting paid and I'm sure this is just a mishap + we don't have the full story.

We have never ever had anything to do with Pitbull Poker and they have never posted (EDIT: with our consent) on these forums. Please check your facts before stating something like that.

EDIT: After double-checking I see that some sort of rep have actually replied in a "Pitbull is a scam"-thread years back. This was definitely without consent and had we seen it he would've been banned. We have known Pitbull to be a scam long before they closed down.
