Skillz Games - Official App ١٧+

Games

Some games are awesome some obviously are not and why I say that is 1 some games don’t have cash prizes 2 the baseball game on my phone I can’t speak for anybody else but it has a timing problem sometimes where the bat doesn’t swing when you hit the swing button and the pairing of opponents I understand but let’s say that person has played before and had to open a new account for whatever reason and u get paired with that person and they blow you out the water if that happens I feel like the new player should at the least get a free rematch or their money back. And I was aborted from a game quite a bit of times and got my refund except for the last one that I’ve been trying to get back for 2 days now they keep saying we will get with you in 24 hrs we’ll that hasn’t happened so I’m a little upset with that process and had a game that’s been holding a 10$ prize for 7 days and the “handbook” says I’ll get my entry fee back and no dice so far but if u just wanna have fun it’s got great games if u want to make money be careful of the games you choose

I recently had Skillz close my account due to concerns about their practices. I find it problematic that they criticize other apps and engage in legal actions against them while simultaneously manipulating their own platform by removing profitable players from events and higher entry fee options. They only include 1-2 valuable cards in events, which promotes gambling behavior, leading players to potentially lose significant amounts of money. Their event algorithms seem designed to encourage users to chase their losses, and I know individuals who have lost over $100,000 on this app. Despite this, they are not legally required to warn users about gambling addiction risks, which is troubling. MANY of my friends had to take out loans to pay off their debt from skillz games. This app negatively impacted my life, though I eventually managed to recover my losses after a year. When I finally did profit, they dangle your withdrawal like a carrot for weeks until you cave and cancel it. It is PREDATORY. I am now pleased to have found a more comfortable and less addictive environment elsewhere. It's disappointing to see the CEO of Skillz prioritizing self-interest over the well-being and fairness of its users. Excluding people is not a good look. Nobody cares that other platforms use bots. It's really not that serious. Hopefully skillz can get their situation situated, but by the time they do I will no longer care. Best of luck to you all.

Disgusted

I’ve been playing skillz games for a couple of months winning some and losing some. Winning more than i was losing but when it a 2/3 payout you have to be winning a lot more than losing or you won’t make money and slowly lose. I was cool with that. I understood and at my skill level I lost a couple hundred the first month but still I knew what was up and chose to continue. The last couple of days I have been winning 70-80% of the games I played finally getting some money back still negative in grand total but up for the week and they shut down my account without giving me a reason and will not respond to any of my emails. They stole everything i had in my account on there without giving any of that back. All I got was a generic email saying i broke one of the rules i agree’d and included all of the rules to look through. I read through it and there was not a rule on there i broke. I haven’t done anything differently this entire time i’ve played. They didn’t have any issue when i was losing but once you develop a pattern of winning they term you and still take all you money. Impossible to make money if you can only be on the app if your losing money. STAY AWAY and if you’ve had a similar experience join me in reporting this scam to the BBB.
