When October first began, PokerStars announced that Full Tilt Poker, non-United States players, would be repaid by November 6th, when the site relaunches. However, players in France may be able to see their money back into their account sooner rather than later.
CasinoChoice has reported that French online poker players at FullTiltPoker.fr may have their money reimbursed by next week. ARJEL, a French regulator, announced in a statement this past Thursday that the date of ‘effective implementation of the reimbursement process of players is Nov. 2, 2012.’
Back in September, ARJEL released a statement which said that PokerStars had created a trust fund which would ensure that all players of France would be repaid smoothly. The ARJEL board members created a procedure which would allow players to verify their identity and quickly be able to transfer funds to their bank accounts. The procedure created by ARJEL will be in place by November 2nd, based on the report.
When the France reimbursement process is ready, players will be able to transfer funds from the Full Tilt Poker website to their account located at PokerStars France. Players of Full Tilt Poker who live in Spain, Denmark, Estonia and Belgium will be repaid through a platform at PokerStars as well and other customers, besides US and Italy, will be given access to their funds at Full Tilt Poker once it relaunches.
The process of repayment in Italy has yet to be determined. PokerStars representatives are continuing to work with Italian regulators and have yet to decide on a repayment option. ARJEL has met with AAMS, the Italian regulator, and discussed many things such as the exchange of market data, player protection practice comparison and more.
