GCG issues warning over Full Tilt Poker claims

Legal company Garden City Group (GCG), which is responsible for administering remissions to US customers of online poker brand Full Tilt Poker, has warned petitioners that submitted incorrect or incomplete information may not receive their claim.

Last week, GCG sent emails to more than 2,200 petitioners who had previously confirmed their Full Tilt Poker account balance but submitted incomplete or incorrect banking information or social security number.

The email included information as to how to update and correct their petitions through the online filing website.

GCG has warned these petitioners that if they do not submit the updated, completed and accurate information by November 24, they may not receive their claim.

Petitioners with incomplete or incorrect banking information will be sent a cheque to the mailing address provided with their petition, should their petition be approved.

Those with an incomplete or incorrect social security number will have their petitions recommended for denial.

"As explained in FAQ Number 17 on this website, prior to the payment of funds to a Petitioner, GCG is required to provide the Petitioner's Social Security or other Taxpayer Identification Number to the Government, in order to offset and collect any qualifying debts currently listed in the Treasury Offset Program," GCG said in a statement on the Full Tilt Poker Claims Administration website.
