Pokershare account

Is it a good idea for non-Americans to open a Pokershare account or is the company going to collapse now?

Can you get a RB deal on top of their share option (whatever that is)?

Id be very carefull if i were you. I would think they lost a large portion of their customer base when they closed our accts, without any warning i might add.

I feel sure the money is not in any danger at Pokershare. I would think your money is as safe there as UB. The problem is that your share might lose money making it defeat the purpose of playing there.

That makes a lot of sense. The reason I'm interested is b/c I couldn't get RB with my UB account so I thought it would be cool if I could get it from Pokershare

ok so far I got jack from Pokershare or UB.
I just emailed them for an update?
Anyone in Canada got a refund yet?
I also emial UB and closed my accoutn and told them why.
Maybe I should have waited till the check arrived [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
I for one will boycot them until they offer something back to the people they screwed with this move (including me).

We as a community need to stick together on this one people.
IF we let them get away with it, just sets presidence that we can be screwed and business as usual we continue.

At the minimum email UB and tell them they suck for doing this.

I have a US po box listed with Pokershare. Told me via email last night it would take about 14 days to receive my check. Didnt take 14 days for my Neteller deposit to reach them, i believe it took about 14 seconds. this whole thing is BULLSHIT.

It actually did take at least a few days for your deposit to reach them; Neteller doesn't transfer the money immediately. PokerShare credited you immediately based on Neteller's promise to deliver the money to them in the near future.

The parent company handles the financing of Pokershare as well as UB. Even if pokershare were to collapse I doubt your money would be in any danger.
