    Where appropriate, refunds will be issued, but you will need to contact Customer Care. They are probably quite busy at the moment, but you don't need to contact them immediately, you can do so on Monday morning.

    What does 'where appropriate' mean Tikay? If you were playing during the issues?

    Same for me, had 4 ( or 5? ) tourneys on the go.

    I was in the same tourney and same table as tomgoodun, I emphasise. He had a good stack and from my view was the best player at the table and perhaps the tournament.

    Doubt I would be in the position in the tourney as I am now if Tom was still in it. Would feel like a hollow cash and maybe victory now.

    Can only say I love the community here and hope when PS take over some of the spirit would remain.

    @TVSpice

    If you speak to Customer Care who have been briefed on the issue, they will issue a refund where it seems appropriate. It's hard to be dogmatic & say who will & won't, as some players were affected in different ways, but if you explain the problems you experienced to Customer Care they will do what they consider necessary.

    Was multi-tabling DYMs and sats and cost considerably when you have to fold hands like KK pre-flop.... Tough to say how much was lost but it's been my biggest losing day in months/ever.

    If they let us know by text/announcement I would have stopped playing. Only realised it was the site once I realised my other internet applications were working and other players were complaining.

    Hope they can refund everyone's rake for the day and provide appropriate compensation for losing players at the very least.

    I'd rather we did not get off topic in the midst of these issues, but it's my present understanding that PS won't be "taking over" Sky Poker, Sky Poker will remain a standalone site run by Sky Poker.

    Great news!! :D

    @darsh11

    You will need to contact Customer Care if you had problems with DYM's.

    They can't just refund everyone - some were affected but will have won their games, others were not affected but lost.

    Get hold of Customer Care (in the morning will do, no need to do so right now), explain where you had specific problems - unable to play hands etc - & they can see if that's the case via table logs & issue refunds where appropriate.

    A reminder that Tournaments starting AFTER 10pm but before Midnight have been cancelled.

    It's currently expected that MTT's will resume at Midnight, starting with Midnight Express.

    I'm glad I didn't see this thread, if I had I wouldn't have played tonight. As it was I did play, no connection issues and I did alright.

    Ha, nice one.

    MOST customers had no issues at all, but a small % certainly did have issues.

    As you know, the problems have been intermittent, but real-time site monitoring at 10.50pm suggests the issues are far less prevalent now.

    I've had a couple of short pauses but nothing more, I never have more than 3 tables running though so maybe that's why it's been ok.

    Just flopped trip jacks with AJ v AK AIPF though, which never happens, so maybe there is something wrong...? ;)>:)

    It's been an issue all weekend but this evening it became unplayable - the reload table message was popping up every few minutes tonight and I was timed out of countless hands.

    It was no different than playing on Pokah circa 2002 except that was me playing whilst drunk and on acid.

    Ahhh happy days NOT
