Shouldn't FTP give me a refund?

After FTP put out a big software update in early July, I played a few SNGs where I couldn’t see my hole cards.  That problem cleared up, but then I couldn’t see other players’ hole cards whenever hands went to showdown.  I e-mailed FTP a bunch of times while this was going on to ask for help in fixing the problem, thinking that the problem was at my end.  FTP of course never responded.

Not too long after the problem cleared up in August, I learned that the problem had been pretty widespread and was a result of a bug in FTP’s software update.  When I learned that the problem was FTP’s doing, not mine, I asked for a refund of the SNGs I played in, and they turned me down.


If I go into a store and buy something that turns out not to work, I expect the store to refund my money.  Same thing with a poker site.  Do you think I should have received a refund?  Did anyone else who had these problems get a refund?

Yes you should get a refund but Full Tilt's support is without a doubt the worst in the world and you'll be lucky to even get a reply let alone a refund!!

Well, the good news is that I did get a reply.  The bad news is that the reply was "no refund." 

And I disagree with the guy above who said that seeing other people's cards at showdown is a perk.  It's pretty important to learn what kinds of hands each of your opponents are playing.  Not only is it important, seeing the cards at showdown is just part of the game.  If other players can see the cards but I can't, I'd say that's a pretty major disadvantage.
