GN1991 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Today I open my unibet web account and saw a terrible message :(Can you please guys @ReCorpH @Stubbe-Unibet @JeppeL @Andy-Unibet comment about this? Is that mean I can't play poker from Lithuania too? And that will happen to my poker tickets? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GN1991 Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 This so unfair actually :( Especially that we were informed in such a shor time of period :( Five days seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merenitsu Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 @GN1991 Ask. It may be possible to play through VPN.Strange things are happening. In my country, there is also talk about the monopoly of the gambling business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy-Relax Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Hi @GN1991,Yes, all products will become unavailable in the next few days.As far as the poker product goes, we expect transactions for LT players to stop around 8am (CET) tomorrow morning which means players will no longer be able to register tournaments or enter cash games. After that we'll convert any unused ticket and bonus points to cash so that players can withdraw. I hope to have all the crediting done by lunchtime. 1 Poker Janitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jami-Unibet Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Hey @GN1991, unfortunately I don't have any info on this but I can look into it. Most likely some regulatory changes or similar since it's this short of a notice. 1 Satisfied with the community? | Read our guidelines? | Meet the team | Seen our latest blog posts?

Purps Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 @GN1991 That's such sad news.

Hopefully there will be a way to stick around, although according to the answers so far it doesn't look too good at all :sad: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merenitsu Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 @Purps It all looks so that in 5 years the best poker room by design will be left without players. :waterfall: @ReCorpH There will be an opportunity - figure it out. I think everyone is wondering why all this is happening. :geek: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merenitsu Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 @GN1991 For your part, you can send a request to the ministry. When I was going through verification, I sent requests for my questions and learned a lot of interesting things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardGain Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Im sorry to read that sad news :( I have experienced many sites leaving or banning my country and it was always with a notice few days before they left 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunckyFish Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I've saw that Unibet was banned in 2016 in Lithuania but they managed to stay there without taking a licence. Probably Lithuanian GOV managed to block them now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about your free bets as I'm not sure if they'll count them as "pending bonuses" which are being voided. Personally, I'd try and get them used tonight on something happening toniight but that is in no way an official answer :) 1 Poker Janitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah @Merenitsu @Pesek actually got a point, technicly unibet is illegal in our country , we just changed our DNS in to google dns and we still could continue to play, but apparenty from now gg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pesek Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 @GN1991 I know this cause we in Poland had the same situation as you i suppose, so i am little bit worried that we could be next on the list... Anyway i hope it will be only temporary for your country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
