Pending Withdrawal

A couple of years ago I were playing Spin & Go $1. Then I became short on time and stopped for a while. I did not request cashout, because I planned to be back. Reading pokerstrategy forum from time to time, I began noticing more and more complaints on withdrawal delays and accounts suspension after withdrawal requests. Who been here during spring and summer of 2011 probably remember this infamous pattern. So not to tempt fate I requested withdrawal.

Spoiler

Almost immediately I received e-mail promicing that requested amount will be transferred to my Neteller account in 72 hours. I was happy that I don't have to send documents and to wait while PokerStars security service reviewing them. But after the aforementioned period money did not arrive. A week later I sent e-mail to the address mentioned in the previous letter (cashier@pokerstarsinsochi.com) questioning about reasons of delay. Then I waited one more week. And since I received neither money nor answers, I sent the same letter to security@starsaccount.eu - because when I try to ask one more withdrawal, PokerStars client offers to write there:

After about a month (2019-10-04) I contacted PokerStars support via Live Chat in their poker software. Tiago said that he requested «urgency» for my withdrawal and I'll receive e-mail with their decision shortly. Since that 2 weeks passed. And almost 2 months passed since withdrawal request. Withdrawal is still pending:

I received no answer to either my previous e-mails or one promised by Tiago. As I understand my PokerStars account is not suspended. Because I don't see any messages while log into client or open cashier. I even can run spin & go and play. This is the difference between my situation and others on this forum, where withdrawals delay under exuse of documents verification. So what else can I do?

That's weird. Maybe you could use the chat function in the PokerStars client:

SDK1987, thank you for your reply. Yeah, I talked to Tiago via this one exactly. But may be you're right and it's time to write once again.

So I've just contacted their Live Chat. Carlos promised to prioritize my case, and they're going to reply to my email as soon as possible. As a matter of fact Tiago promised me the same during previous chat session a couple of weeks ago. But seems that I have no choice other than wait.

I often cashout from pokerstars, there are no problems, you probably had an issue due to the long inactivity :)

Same situation. Can't withdraw over 2 months.
And they turned off live chat. For my convenience, of course)

I see. At least the ' Contact us' works for you.

May be you're right. Though I have another assumption concerning this problem.

Do you use custom themes for PokerStars client or may be other software that can modify files in its folder?

Yes, but it doesn't affect lobby, because live chat works properly all the time before I've tried to withdraw.
What about 'Contact us' - it works, but only in one direction. I send letters - they do not answer, or answer after weeks.
It cannot be normal, as I think.

So it took 65 days all in all. Probably they just mistyped and there should be days, not hours.
