Hello Scott,

Thank you for contacting Full Tilt Poker Support.

We have reviewed your account and see you experienced connectivity issues while playing on our site.

We understand situations like these are frustrating. However, we have determined our servers were fully operational at the time of your disconnection, and we cannot make adjustments because of Internet conditions beyond our control.

We have reviewed your play history and confirmed that, fortunately, you were able to reconnect to the software and finish your tournament.

Before you connect to our software, your internet connection travels through 5 to 30 different third party servers, none of which are owned by Full Tilt Poker. If any of those servers are experiencing technical difficulties, your connection to our servers will be affected. When you sit at a table or tournament, you accept the potential risks playing in an online card room, and we are unable to assume responsibility for external connectivity issues.

If you constantly have connection problems, please let us know and we will assist you with any technical issues.

We appreciate your understanding, and if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Regards,

Matteo

Please refer this to the next level up. I paid 10k in rake last month, I am not trying to scam you. My internet connection is incredibly reliable and I was able to surf the net whilst disconnected from FTP. Could you please just refund my buyin. I was able to complete the tournament, but it was incredibly tilting distraction and an inconvenience and not up to FTP's standards.

Hello Scott,

Unfortunately, as stated previously when you reported your first disconnection instance, when you sit at a table or tournament, you accept the potential problems with playing in an online card room.
You may be disconnected through no fault of your own (or ours) and lose whatever money you may be playing for. We cannot be responsible for conditions in the Internet and possible problems with connectivity.

If you are constantly being disconnected, please let us know so that we can assist you in fixing any technical difficulties.

Thank you for your patronage and play on Full Tilt Poker.

Are you seriously telling me that my internet was at fault? I will sign a Stat Dec saying that I was able to access the internet during this period.


Are you really willing to jeopardise my patronage over a $200 dispute??

I strongly recommend that you forward my complaint to the highest possible person given my level of activity on FTP
