Hey folks this is Marlsss.I have moved from Ireland to the UK. Sky wasnt able to change my banking account from euros to sterling so i was required to create a new account,I would of incurred lots of bank charges on every deposit and withdrawal if i continued under my Marlsss account

Marlsss account is now closed.My new username im playing under is TMP33570705.Not my choice of username but it seemed to be auto made for me

Anyway i felt it was only right to let people know who they are playing against.See you all at the tables

    Much respect to you for posting this Marlsss. An awful lot of people would be happy just to fly under the radar in this situation and reap the benefits of being an unknown quantity.

    Well done in coming on the forum and saying about the name change. Seems abit weird they couldn't just give you a username similar., They could have just added another "s" to marlssss.

    Be careful you dont get your account suspended, @Marlsss is multi-tabling right now.

    That's really weird. It shows as Marlsss in the lobby but TMP33570705 when you open the table. I'm guessing the 'TMP' part may stand for temporary?

    I felt it was only right,Im not sure why i was given this username,i wasnt given an option when i logged into new account.I was told on the phone to just follow instructions when i logged in.I was able to choose an avatar but thats all

    Thanks for letting me know. This is strange,if its temp name it would be great if i could change to name similar to Marlsss

    @Tikay10 Can you investigate this please? Two names showing up? One in lobby,one on tables

    If i am able to use Marlsss name or similar name would be great,thanks

    I left tables while replying to comments.I re joined games and my username is back to Marlsss again so all is good.It must be like you said @Duesenberg TMP was temporary name.I guess the system needed time to catch up and sync old account

    Issue seems to be solved now,welcome back Marlsss :D

    Guys & @marlsss

    I'm just surmising here, as I don't get to see this side of things, but I suspect what has happened here is just the process of swapping the account.

    It's not possible to have 2 accounts with the same screen-name, so presumably the new Account was set up with a Temporary alias. (Just guessing, but "TMP........" probably stands for Temporary).

    When the new Account has been activated, the old one is "killed".

    Then, once the player logs back on with the "new" account, either he or the Office then change the Temporary name back to the original Account alias of "marlsss".

    That's not official, but I'm guessing that's what's happened.

    Well done all for handling it sensibly.

    @marlsss

    No problem bud.

    I did refer the thread to the Office when you first posted it & they sort of suggested it was likely to be as I described it.

    I'll speak with them again in the morning & confirm it, but I think it's all sorted now, & case dismissed.

    Not sure about your Forum Alias, maybe the Forum Software has not caught up yet, or perhaps it can't be synced, but I don't think that's a big deal, we are all grown-ups & know the score.
