Everest Fee for Inactivity

Yo sup LP,

When I was a huge whale back in the days (prolly still are) I made accounts on so many different poker sites where I could get some no deposit bonuses (out of my head I remember everest, titan, pkr, intertops pkr).
Mostly I gamb00led the rools away and left the site (sometimes there were still some cents left over with which I could not buy in again to the lowest cash games).

Now I got an e-Mail from Everest stating that after 365 days of inactivity they will start charging an inactivity fee that applies for all account that are inactive for more than a year but still have money in their accounts (I have like 35 cents). At least they were fair enough to tell me that if I withdraw that money no fee will be charged.

Lol'd hard. Is this common sense on the different Ipkr webshits? That seems super greedy and BS to me but ok I don't care enough to really complain about it.
Just wanna know which sites I will have to check again for accounts with some money left over which I need to withdraw before they start charging a fee.

So if you leave some money on these sites (or can not even withdraw because the amount is too small) and you stop playing it will be gone after 1y+!

I had a account with 6k that I completely forgot about for 2years and was able to cash out from the inactive email. It didnt rub me the wrong way at all

yeah this came from partypoker

  We would like to let you know that because it’s been more than 6 months since you last played for real money on our website, your account was charged an administration fee of $ 5.90 on 14-Jan-2015. This charge is simply to help us cover the costs associated with administering and maintaining inactive accounts such as yours.

If your account remains inactive, it will continue to be charged administration fees on a monthly basis until the balance is zero.

It seems to be not very profitable in the long run to play those kind of hands. - Gus Hansen

the reason sites use to start to take fees from your account balance is so shady

if poker is dangerous to them i would rank sports betting as a Kodiak grizzly bear who smells blood after you just threw a javelin into his cub - RaiNKhAN

wow that's so terrible. can that be legal if it's not disclosed earlier? then again nobody reads terms and conditions so maybe it was, but wtf.

ya my first thought was: Lol is this really legal? I mean how much administrative costs do they have ?? There is some money that they just have to bank for zero interest, cant be that costly and definitely not something like 5.99/month.
at least they only charge till the account is empty. would be sooo rofl if you could make actual debts by just being inactive at a poker site :D
