Beware player abuse is widespread and

Beware player abuse is widespread and bbo brushes off infractions Offers of screen prints and videos are ignored by bbo staff I suggest you create your own table so that you can boot anyone who violates zero tollerance behaviour If you join someone else s table you are subject to removal without cause or chat abuse BBO seems more concerned about generated revenue than enforcing zero tolerance

Sort of cage fighting for card sharks cheats

This used to be a regulated site but some years ago the owners allowed a free-for-all in order to attract the max number of players and advertising Now the open bridge room is dominated by cheats and gamblers If a player stays 2 full games it s the exception and most leave as soon as they re losing Frequently players abuse and threaten each other and admin allo encourage it Don t bother

Antique technology that gouges members for money

Awful ancient software with navigation that is from the 90 s and it literally is This site has the license from ACBL till 2025 to charge players what they want It is run by a venture captialist The only way to get out of having BBO gouge the players for money and give little value is to let ACBL know that BBO needs to be replaced I hate the ads we have to contend to and the horribly backward technology that they have not updated for decades and I presume have no plans to update since they know their days are numbered in gouging members for master points and tables Write to the president of ACBL She was very responsive and knows the whole story She just needs to know from more members how we will not tolerate this

They will steal your dollar

BBO can be fun but they will steal your money They offer a tournament format where you pay a dollar and if you score a 55 you get 1 50 back 12 boards sometimes up to maybe 9 tables - and sometimes you re heads up Well I recently played a heads up match - but the other player defaulted Just didn t show up So I paid a dollar played 12 boards but got zero scoring feedback and no 1 50 rebate the whole premise of the game I asked for a refund - and this company - to whom I ve paid hundreds and maybe thousands of dollars was willing to sell our their integrity and send a long time well spending customer walking away for a dollar It s a garbage organization lacking ethics entirely I was shocked but if they will steal a dollar - they will do worse Can t be trusted with your money or data - a complete disgrace of a company
