Americans on Merge no longer?

Rumor has it they are starting to get shut down...buddy said his account at Gr88 was frozen last night, along with some others.

I tried downloading Feltstars again, but their downloader is shut down with some strange error...

Anyone else hear anything?

    There was a rumor last week re DOJ.

    Pretty sure gr88 stopped allowing us players earlier this year, your buddies are american and playing on gr88?
  • HobbesHobbes
    They stopped new US signups June 1 but current players can still play at least on the skins I play on

    I thought it was done earlier but looks like gr88 automatically transferred over their us players to carbon.

    US players are on Feltstars too..but yeah, one friend was still playing gr88...another is on Felt..waiting for more info on the two that are "frozen"..

    Has anyone tried withdrawing from Merge lately? I am only getting one withdrawal option, which is a bank transfer.. Not a big deal, but it won't let me proceed without an IBAN number...and my bank tells me Canadian institutions aren't assigned IBANs...only Swift codes *(which I have)...
  • HobbesHobbes
    SWIFT Code (aka BIC) should work in place of an IBAN

    Made a withdrawal via moneybookers on friday and received on monday

    It won't let me proceed without the IBAN, even with the Swift in place.

    ok apparently it was just some other reason buddy got his account frozen...and nope, they weren't on gr88 anymore. No US players there, and they got their own payment processor so I just need to redeposit via any of the options and I can withdraw immediately..no delays.

    Yet another online poker scandal :'( -
    RPM Poker Scandal.
    I'm glad I joined Merge through Carbon Poker (with 35% rakeback) instead of scummy RPM.

    yeah, I have to say I am super happy with my Merge skin as well. Gr88 has their own payment processor now, and monies within a day or two now. Their customer service is also second to none in the industry as per my experiences. I can directly phone, text, skype or message on crackbook their service manager and he has always taken care of problems immediately. Also with the 35% rb..
