Skillz Reviews 

This game is just a scam. I have spent over $100 in the game ☹️
I am from Fiji and when I try to withdraw there is no option available for it.
Wish someone files a lawsuit against the company and everyone defrauded by the company gets a refund.

I'm extremely frustrated with the customer service. It's scripted,basically the same response to the same problem. I have great wifi. New phone, good battery, no other open apps. Yet I open the app and it shuts down. I don't even get to select a game, look at my stats, read comments, Nothing. I press the app button only. The game is loading then a box either pops up say " one solitaire isn't responding " then it gives you a choice close app or wait. So I close the app. When it does open it shows I aborted the last game. It even shows no other challenger yet. So I copy game ID a write them and explain what happens. I've never gambled more than $10 at once. Most recently $.60 matches. But I used to play up to $10. So when the game had the problem I started noticing my funds were lower. I wondered how long it's been happening. I never paid much attention. So I started writing. Apparently there is a limit of how much can be credited per month. So I was told to wait 30 days to request again. I waited the 30 days but before I was told that I had just deposited $20. I could play 2 other games without a problem. But the other when I tried again it taking away from my $20 deposit if the game malfunctioned loading. My 30 days are and now there is an update. I've lost most of my $20 deposit because of the problem, I cashed in my tickets for $10 cash to play games and it works. Awesome it's fixed. Then I decided to make another deposit. $20. 1 day day later the problem starts again. So I write them. I'm told I exceeded the limit for a month AGAIN. I'm going to start recording my game not loading and post it on sites so others see the problem. Stop using the same scripted word for word reply. READ the customers concerns. Look for #Skilzzlackscustomerservice .

For others reading if you have same please copy and paste and post as well.

JUST CURIOUS, In the rules and regulations it plainly states that you van not have the use of multiple accounts and I think the skills employees only notice this when suspicious happenings are going on in a person's profile and gaming,it takes a minute to realize this, that's why they don't knop it in the bud in the beginning because they figure people read all the ways it works but obviously they don't or they do but still try to do it their way and that way gets them deleted..And to whomever said they never got back to his questions, hard for me to believe because I've been playing for almost 8 months and im answered each and every time within minutes and Im a person who will ask 100 questions if im not so sure of how things work...Any and all withdrawals I've ever had was deposited back on my card within 2 days and it has been the exact next day. So, im not understanding any of your negative comments im reading...Skillz is very Legal and Legit. Had I been done as you all have said? I WOULD ADMIT TO IT BUT EVERY NEGATIVE COMMENT IS ME KNOWING ITS NOTHING SKILLS STAFF ARE DOING. YOU GUYS CHISE NOT TO READ? BOTTOM LINE...SORRY, NOT SORRY...JUST SAYING

If you're looking for a game that's going to make you laugh or frustrate you this is absolutely the one. There's no possible way you could ever win this game. Skills is a complete scam. Even if they gave you 800% bonus on top of your money you still will not come out of winner at all no type of way.

Requested for a cash out and they went to the pathetic length to avoid paying the cash out by saying that I have multiple accounts so they closed my account and forfeited all my money and the withdrawal will be cancelled. After emailing them a few times, they insisted that they were correct and I’m wrong and they eventually stopped replying to my emails to them. Waste of money and such a scam. Avoid this game

A minor child was allowed to blow twelve thousand dollars off my debit cards on there gaming sight. When I contacted them they won't even call just email. Saying to bad the info matches my own info. address birthday and name. Cards were already saved. I was willing to work with them even but can't even pick up the phone to call me 4 something over $12,000 which was spent illegally play A Minor on their website really what the f***

They refuse to refund after too many game crashes. Why should the player pay for faulty apps? You already only win 40/60 of your bet. They are greedy and making enough money. Yes the matching is not right either.

Company is a scum and speak of integrity. I hope they company goes bankrupt sooner cause all I experienced is cheating. From stupid calculation to fake matching up with same level skills. To you the developer don’t wonder y you your life is problematic from family backstabbing to families cheating to dead of close ones!

If i can rate them 0 i would. They disabled my account that has a pending withdrawal. Its a rip off

It very good game it is my stress reliever event if i dont have any dollars left there also other tickets i can use and enjoy in playing keep it up ang we will support you forever

They have pathetic customer service. They basically ignore you, or answer with some generic copy and paste message. They are definitely scammers and don’t care about you. Also, even though they are using some generic copy and paste message and then adding their name to it, they still don’t read your question. Because of this you may receive a message that has absolutely nothing to do with the question you asked. When you attempt to clarify yourself they are likely to have a different representative send the exact same copy and paste message with their name on it, or some other copy and paste message that has nothing to do with what you’re asking. When you point this out the next person may go back to the first message. It is honestly annoying.

I started playing free cell on Skillz and then when Covid hit I tried a game called “Mini Golf King”. I was OK at the game and turned 5 dollars deposit with 10 dollars bonus cash added on into about 2800, and I had withdrawn 600 and claimed some gifts with credits such as a yoga mat, sweaters, shirts, etc. At the end of playing this game I could play about 30 6 dollar entry games and only 1 would find an opponent before 1 week, when the matches are canceled. This is annoying because I was playing my absolute best I had ever played when this happened. That’s one downside for sure. You get challenged for a very long time and when you step up and do your best, you don’t even get an opponent.

The next game I played was “Big Hearts” where I lost money until my 2800 was now between 1800 and 1900, and then I turned it around and brought my account back up to 3200. I also redeemed several gifts with tokens, and because I only profited small it seems like I was worse at this game but that is not the case. I did worry when people started quitting, and started to focus on 3 dollar entry games (which did not award time bonuses) because I was worried about my opponents hiding out in this entry level because speed was likely my greatest advantage in this game. I sacrificed lots of earnings by focusing on becoming the best at the entry where time means nothing, but competition still dwindled and I started looking for a new game.

Sure enough that day came when a new game is was released which had solid graphics and seemed like it would catch on and become a very popular game on the platform. I closely watched the game and when a pro league opened up I immediately quit playing “Big Hearts” and started practicing. Almost instantly, well instantly, I was making money and actually enjoyed the game. The account grew in a very short time even though the game was new and I was playing mostly .60 entries with only a few games in the higher stakes. Skillz promoting this game a little too, and the bonuses in the pro league got a big boost to draw more players. Right when Skillz did this they blocked me from playing. It was quite annoying. They said they were doing an in depth review of my account. This has went in for about two weeks now, and I am not aloud any matchups. When I first began playing they reviewed my account and I did not have to stop playing during the review. Also I have had to play games while broadcasting my screen to them and broadcasting me playing at the same time, while a Skillz representative watches. They did block me from getting matchups before I completed this process for “Big Hearts” for a few days, but I had missed the first scheduled appointment (my internet was down and it was during Covid lockdown) so it was slightly understandable. Even though it was slightly understandable, they completely denied it was happening. I contacted every single department and they all sent me a copy and paste message about how Skillz matchup system works and sent me a link to a website that explains it more. I don’t know if I should call that abuse, or what. So then miraculously when I met with the Skillz team member Riley for the online meeting where I would play games while broadcasting, the matchups suddenly worked. I was messaging saying I’m used to being matched up 100 minimum each day, and now nothing, but every single department ensured me that nothing was wrong and sent me the link with the copy and paste message.

Just curious. If it's against the rules to have more than one account then why allow people to open extra accounts and also play with them. Reading lots of reviews it seems like they allow this to go on and then use it against the people when they win any decent amount of money to close the account. I mean, if skillz is so on top of things, as they appear to be when cashing out, then why not close accounts when people are losing too. Just curious. Hate to see humans taking advantage of humans. Some humans aren't human, though they walk like we do, they live and they breath, just to turn your screw.
Just give people their hard earned money back and stop making up reasons and excuses about the silly fine print. If I've opened an extra account and it is against policy then why not shut it down immediately?. I'm sure you are making plenty the right way. Ps- I do currently play and haven't had any bad experiences but hate to see people have their $ withheld when it should have been nipped in the bud long before the point of attempted cash out.

It's a scam. Some of their apps have also been discontinued and it's impossible to get your account/funds.

I had some strange transactions on my card and I've never played on that moment , I had to phone my own bank to stop the transaction. Now I have a message from them I'm the one who violate their term and conditions. This is the message from them .

Please be really careful with this app, I was thinking they will try to helping me and understand what exactly happening but no they choose to blame me for they own fault . Thanks for this SKILLZ

I’ve recently had my account banned after attempting to withdraw $100 of winnings. My husband and I both play Skillz games and have won money and items in the past. For the first time, I used his promo code for the extra bonus money. After multiple emails where I explained the situation, one of their representatives sent me this explanation “It looks like we found that you had created multiple accounts which is against our Terms of Service.” So not only did they forfeit my $100 but my account has been banned. Beware if you and someone in your household excel at skill based games.

SCAM - BEWARE THE GAMES ARE RIGGED.

Horrible experience. They keep giving me the run around on my withdrawal. Telling me it’s been sent for 2 months and still has not arrived. Will never do business with them again.

Stay away from this ALL skillz apps. They scam you and steal your money by closing your account when you win. They have every excuse in the book as to why you have violated their terms and how you are abusing their policies.

I cashed out on Nov. 3rd and they still haven't paid me. I contacted customer support and was told there was a delay on their part but I would be paid in a week. I am still waiting. I would not recommend this site.
