Thieves. Will take your money but make excuses on the payout when the time comes... scam .. they robbed me for 650 because I made a new username when the app wouldnt allow me to sign into existing when I got new phone. Dont play yourself with skillz ..

I very first start was so excited. Especially on practice. But when use money not promise much as I saw on advertising. Well I guess I don’t recommend anyone to wasting their money in this game Thanks

Giving -Minus A Star Or Several Stars for Skillz Am dealing with error due to boostmobile service upgrading for 5G network in my area for over a month. My games during playing a card in a robot mode or something then would go to homescreen. Reported to VIP support. Was recommended to report. They just kept refunding me. Believe in honesty so over a time frame I asked over five times and received. Any other time I refused their refunds after had figured out what was going on. At 1st being new I was like why are they refunding me? Ask for them to look into with genuine concern and hopeful to help with any inquiries. Therefore after realizing they were excessive with refunds it made me uncomfortable and then told them no I do not accept! They said few weeks later that was at a limit on account. Answered not sure about? Asked should I not report? Does it help? And continued was usually automated answered. Confuzzled me honestly. So glitches and such. And also had withdrawals all of sudden canceled. Contacted support they advised me to resubmit. Which drew some attention now I’ve noticed! Mind you the total was close to 2K a lil less however rounding up to the nearest dollar. Rewind- When was first downloading these types of apps had no idea few were affiliated (deleted after a week of having the game apps) and had one I couldn’t log into after getting. However started new account while trying spades out! Never logged into another account with spades account, because like I said didnt know they were in fact the same in one! So support deleted my account in spades! Was like what? They told me had account already and said okay fine will play on a new one 3 months ago. No refund…exposed cheaters on there and turns out I have screenshots of them playing my deleted account against me! After messages to them about deleted account! So fast forward was complaining about & kept getting automated messages. So I was rude and stated to automated to assure was directed to as well. It was kind of humorous and they said that real people that send this…so apologized and never responded in that way since. Well waited two weeks for my video verification which not sure why they needed again? They had my address, PayPal, debit banking, etc. and showed on video that I know how to play to earn. Deleted app today that they had me download during verification and then it popped back up on my screen to download by its self just 20 mins ago removed it and was blocked out of the games and they said that my winning has been forfeited and I have been (Literally in real life people fight over me being on their team to play this game with them) fraudulent? They owe me more than 3K since I built up more winnings since then and they do not want to pay! Have been nice about all of this and mentioned about reviews today as well and has led up to this company scamming. When you make money withdrawal they do not like it. When you cash in tickets they do not like it. Also when you question the players trust me I know how to play very well they do not like! What does reporting here even do? What kind of change is made? (Waving@Skillz employee reading this) Not only try to make change here make the change publicly expose further get grouped even exchange email contacts and let’s get them by the dozens! Figured this would happen months ago and have been documenting. Do not care that they have me being mean to automated messages. Nobody really likes automated and that is a fact! Sincerely P.S. Im not done with just here! Now that we have internet so intertwined in each one of our lives, daily, its time for the justice system to get up to speed by designating space, also changes to have reasonable laws to help support us legally. This way terms and agreements are under a microscope for better service for the users to get fairness. You invite me into your back yard for a barbecue, I’m eating steak. It’s basically their property under law, but should be accountable to give what is offered! Instead of being able to basically have terms that gives them one sided rights to do whatever they desire, and can (for now) get away with it!

Don’t bother! They call out the same numbers over and over in a game, and if you get the boost to daub a whole column they then constantly call out numbers of that column. Just don’t waste your time.

SCAM SCAM SCAM! I agree with other users they will find any reason to not payout withdrawals. I created an account a month ago and I won on my first try and submittal for withdrawal. I noticed weeks later that my withdrawal never went through I was informed that they would look into it. I received an email a couple of days later stating my withdrawal was being processed $10 was loaded into my bank account and the rest would be sent to me via check. Needless to say I checked in a few days ago and was informed my winnings was forfeited because other accounts use the same device in the household. I informed them that yes other members of my family use the same Ipad but the funds that they received came from my bank account when I played using my own user account. They reinstated my siblings accounts because they play free matches but they refuse to reinstate my account because if it’s closed they do not have to pay out because I forfeit by playing on the same device. I told them the algorithm should have stopped me from creating an account if that was an issue but they did not. That rule is ridiculous! That’s like stating only one person in a household can play the PlayStation at one time. They do not use logic just scripted answers and algorithms.🗣PLEASE DO NOT WASTE ANY OF YOUR MONEY PLAYING WITH THEM YOU WIN SOME YOU LOSE SOME PUT THEY DO NOT WANT TO PAY. Over the course of the last month they have even encouraged me to cancel my withdrawal and continue to play but when i did not that’s when I was told about the other accounts in the household. Highly disappointed consumer of the app, the algorithm, the staff and their scripted answers, and overall SKILLZ.

As soon as you try to withdraw the money you have won, they will find any reason to block your account. SCAM!

I have played thousands of matches both for free and real money (all documented) and have come to the understanding that the governing algorithm of this platform is designed to make only the House win. It would appear Skillz tweaked their algorithm to ensure they are the sole winners. Odd matching patterns are customary on this platform. You may end up having the illusion you win (at first) but in the medium and long run reality will eventually kick in. I have constantly checked how other players are faring (easy way to do this is to open a match result, click on your opponent’s icon, scroll down to the bottom of the page to see his win/loss performance over the last 10 games). Only a handful of players are on a 7wins/3 losses streak (that’s where you make a little money). Few more are on a 6/4 average (break even) and the vast majority are on a 5 (or less) wins/ 5 (or more losses). It’s also pointless to contact support as the best you’ll get are well crafted, pre-written copy paste replies which always fail to address your doubts or concerns. Finally, I find it odd regulators licensed Skillz to offer their games for money. When the house retains full control of the matching mechanism and, for example, allows for matching patterns that will repeatedly (four times or more in a row) field you against a players you have 20% or less chances of beating the whole concept of game of skills flies out of the window. Finally, their core claim of fairness is all but hot air. For example, when on a hot streak, it’s not unusual to be matched to players who’s best ever score is 20 points (or more) over your best ever score. And anyone who has played Spider Solitaire on this platform knows that a 20 points gap is borderline impossible to fill.
