Complaint Review: FirePay - Ultimate Bet

I play poker at Ultimate Bet online. I funded over $6,000 with FirePay until FirePay temporarily suspended my account for alleged security reasons. They requested proof of my identity which I forwarded to them. Despite now owing them one dime they did not reinstate my account.

I advised Ultimate Bet that I had switched to Click2Pay which they accepted and invested another $2,500. Yesterday I decided to make a small withdrawl of $400. Utimate Bet confirmed and I authorized that the funds were to be transmitted to Click2Pay.

Without my permission Ultimate Bet sent the funds to FirePay who illegally confiscated my money claiming that I was someone else. I wrote to both companies explaining that I am not the other person.

Ultimate Bet refused to get involved and walked away although I clearly authorized the funds be paid to Click2Pay. FirePay insists that I am someone else and refused to pay me my money when I do not owe them a dime.

Both of these companies are illegal, using deceptive trade practices and illegally seizing funds. Reasoning with either of them is pointless.

If you do business with either of these parasite companies be forewarned that they are thieves. I have filed a criminal complaint with the State Attorney General's office.
