Backgammon Masters

Try contacting the Gambling Commision online. I was ripped off by BM too.

after playing backgammon over a period of time i lost about 2000 dollars and during that time i received some bonuses which i also lost. my last deposit was 50 dollars. i won 108 dollars and when i tried to withdraw it they refused to pay me saying i did not play enough games. this is a con.

The same as above, I deposited 600, won some money was told to gamble or make bets adding up to $20000 before I could withdraw. I tried to do this, ended up with $2300 and they have blocked my log in. these guys are the worst kind of shits imaginable = AVOID AT ALL COSTS - they don't even give you your deposit back which is actually YOUR MONEY - not theirs - AVOID AVOID AVOID

About BackgammonMasters, i can see i should be pretty happy as i deposited low amounts and managed to cash out several times (around 3000$ as overall) and i could ``enjoy`` playing on my account more than two years (begining of 2006 untill October 2008). Yet, i had big problems with them: firstly they locked my account for about two months for ``security review`` at my second withrawal which was in the amount of 900$ (9xbigger than the first one), firstly they acused me that i chargedback my creditcard !! Finally after their two months of ``security review`` found me clean and paid me. I kept playing there as they paid me after all, and when it was time to cash out an important amount again (1300$) they accused me that i cheated at poker and locked my account for second time about another month or so !! - I played poker when they lauched it for a while and won alot because they did not forced anyone to pay the blinds in order to play at the table (their fault). Finally they found me honest and reopened my account, and paid me. Around October 2008 i`ve come 2nd place in a 3000$ backgammon tournament and won 500$. In a matter of few days i made my withdrawal request of 600$ and after about one week they blocked permanently my account not paying me a cent anymore not even untill today. This time the reason was: ``multiple accounts``, which obviously i had not, as i started to play with my account under username PlayHunter from the first day i saw their site and untill the last day when they blocked my account in October 2008.

Rob (a good bg player and friend from england warned me about this site, also few other friends of mine), but i kept playing if good or bad they paid me (untill the last time). Even one of their big winners Phil (and great US bg players) felt headaches and had problems with BackgammonMasters when they should paid him.. (before me). After me, in the last months another good bg player Madiq got his account blocked on their site on same stupid reasons obviously.

In my opinion BackgammonMasters will pay you if you are a new player and you respect all their goofy terms & conditions with RMA and RMBA.. and stuff but only small withdrawals (under 200$ to not meet problems), and only for a limited time.. do not think you can get something big from them or something wich will be endless, no because sooner or later your account and money from it will be locked on a stupid and untrue reason when you will want to cash out again. I guess what is their REAL REASON: THEY SIMPLY JUST DON`T LIKE WINNERS !

Hi Kevin and helpful friends,

Thankyou for the warnings. Are there any reputable backgammon sites which pay out winners?

i have a similar problem....i deposited with no problem ,played,won and my cashout still did't come every day they want something new.I already sent them a photo id.I used moneybookers and they ask me about my credtit card......this site i think is a huge scam....if anyone really did manage to cashout please tell me how u did it

I have also had similar recent bad experience with Backgammon Masters. I have succeeded in withdrawing cash, but only after many delays. In recent days I appear to have been blocked from playing on the site as I cannot log onto it. When I made my first request to withdraw cash I was advised I could not because I had not completed the requirements for gaining a bonus at some time in the past. I was advised that at one point when making a $200 deposit and receiving a $200 bonue, that I had to turnover $10,000 in game play in order for the withdrawal to be activated. After I actually did this it took more than a month and constant haranguing to finally receive the cash as a credit to my credit card.

ive got $3000 winnings that i wont be getting because they dont reply to emails the online help wont run and they dont explain what the internal error is if there is no one to phone either unnily enough you can deposit loads but you wont see it again absolutely criminal a disgrace avoid avoid avoid

in backgammonmasters i wait my cashout in my account moneybookers 10 days! Support not answer.. Who help me? please..

These guts owe $1000s to players over many months, if you win, you dont get paid, its as simple as that. Ythis is a thread running about them, at just one forum, also complaints at Casinomeister. Avoid at all costs
