Any idea how long it will take to get my money back from 888 that I deposited to pay for WCOAP then get it loaded onto DTD? Will there still be places left in the side events? Would have appreciated more than a day"s notice here when you must have known for considerably longer.
Matt,
We appreciate it may be considered short notice, but there is a lot that gets organised in the background before we are able to make an announcement. I hope you"ll get your funds in place in time to bag all the seats you are after.

This needs to be noted a bit more than may be "considered short notice" and a lot to be organised in the background. This was queried by Daveyface on this thread in June and had it confirmed by Tighty that it would be buy in on 888.
As we can see from Simon and others it obviously has caused problems to some.

At the time my expectation was that the WCOAP would be handled by 888. However, things change, particularly in the currently very fluid poker world.
It was not possible to give a heads up on the change of WCOAP sponsor beforehand as negotiations were not concluded. Once they were, everything was putting in place (holding tanks, capacities etc) in under 72 hours, time being of the essence as we want the event on sale.
I appreciate it will cause problems, as we can see and was aware it was a likely bi-product of a very complex situation.
