It's been over two weeks since news first broke on the Gambling911.com website that the US Government had froze funds belonging to online poker giants:  PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker.   The headaches continue for many of the two companies customers. 

We later learned that $40 million and up has been seized from payment processors dealing exclusively with PokerStars and Full Tilt.

The topic of discussion throughout this month has related to the time frame in order to get reimbursed for the initial bad checks sent out earlier.

"I withdrew money from Full tilt when all this happened and have contacted them twice about and all I get is messages saying they are looking into it. It's BS," commented one angry Full Tilt Poker customer on the Gambling911.com website.

The nature of the indictments is not yet known since they have been sealed.
