Can't cancel payment
February 21, 2022

Nothing really wrong with the games, but try to cancel your payments and you're in a world of hurt. They say you can cancel via their website - they lie. You're better off going to one of the many free sites available these days. Avoid these guys like the plague! I'd give them zero stars if that option was available!

Game is fun. But lies about giving u points. Game claims to give u freebies n points. Total sham. Who ever developed this game is crock of $#*!. I emailed them. They don't admit point earnings. What a pity on them. Not making correction or pleasing their consumers.

Haven't bought any games for a few years. Now I'm getting charged over 7.00 a month on my credit card, what a rip off
Big fish game did contact and reimburse for one years worth, and cancelled my subscription.
It's help but will be very careful in the future before buying anything on the Internet.

Big Fish Casino
September 14, 2017

I started playing Big Fish Casino for about 3 years & have purchased a lot of chips. It was fun in the beginning but in the past couple of weeks have endured people starting drama within the tables, also losing most of the time, & also the constant laughing regarding another player at the table. I do not find anything funny regarding any player whether they are black, white, red, or whatever, if the have a billion chips or just one, it doesn't matter. Why can we not just get along?

Buyer beware
March 18, 2017

Normally when I sign up to a website they send me lots of emails, messages, etc. Big fish games, on the other hand, sent me nothing at all, not even an email confirmation confirming my on line purchace, so imagine my surprise when I notice that they've been billing me for months for something I clicked on a while ago. It is buried in the TOC that when you buy a game you are actually signing up for a membership which includes monthly payments. So not so surprising at all that they didn't feel like reminding me about it. This is dishonest to say the least and very bad business practice. On a positive note, when I contacted the company about this and complained they refunded all my money immediately.

I guess C19 hit Big Fish pretty bad because their site is a mess! I am trying to find a game to play that I haven't played yet and works for windows 10! I can't even load the games board and if I see a game I want more information on, it won't load! Just the old twirly bird. And no answers when you ask!
Do I need to find a new game site? I've been here since time began and I was always so happy. Today I walk away and don't play a game

I own several games from Big Fish, and those games are some of my favs and I've been playing them for years. I've owned 4 computers over the years and am able to download all the games into my new computer each time. The monthly fee can be cancelled at anytime and you only need to pay again when you're ready to purchase some more games.

No one cares.
October 29, 2017

It was bought by an american gambling company that profits off making us lead groups of customers against others on 2 different apps that draw more attention to the more profotable one... Its not for real money so they break no laws by not offering or posting ads to prevent gambling addiction... Its a company that helps real people earn real wages... Dont get angry at the tricks they play on us... Get smart and keep letting them hear it without disrespecting the employees... Ill get nothing for trying to make an agreement between grievances... I never had a wife or family and cant beat my addiction of helping others just to make complete strangers enjoy the time spent on there... Im not a strong person but i will stand up fir what i think is right for all and not just whats best for the american company.

Retraction
August 1, 2018

When down loading from Bigfishgames.com, the game did not download as mentioned in my previous review, HOWERVER, there was no issue downloading Big Fish Games through my PC's "Wild Tangent" app, I've downloaded a number of games and find them well worth their prices. Connecting with Wild Tangent's "technical support" is a different matter.

The games are not fair. All set up to get you to buy then they leech back all your coins.so you buy more. There are people (or bots?) who never lose, always on top with trillions and 100's of billions. They track you. They are unethical IMO.

This site is a scam
February 5, 2014

This site is a scam. The blackjack dealer bust rate is atrocious. Vegas would be embarrassed. 20 and 21 are routine for the "computer" generated hands that happen so often especially during "chip sales"! Taking people's money for pitiful odds are the way this site operates. Do not spend money on this underhanded system. You will always lose!

Never again
December 23, 2020

They used to be a good, reliable company with good customer service. I don't know what happened. There are now frequent technical issues (including games not activating). I can see from their social media that I'm far from the only person experiencing these issues. If you contact customer service, explain that you've already tried every step in their help articles, they just respond to you with the same help article that didn't help at all! I have been a customer for years. No longer.

Big Fish Club is a SCAM
September 11, 2017

As others have stated, if you make one small purchase you are signed up for a monthly club service with no notification until you see it on your credit card statement. They will not respond to requests for refunds and even if you cancel they force you to stay active another month. This is a criminal enterprise.

I like this site a lot
September 5, 2011

I like this site a lot. The membership isn't worth it to me. I only download about 1 game a month, maybe 2 if there is a sale going on. But I love the fact they give you a an hour trial on all their games so you can try before you buy. Plus they've started releasing iPhone games as well. My favorite are hidden object games and they have quite a wide variety. My only complaint is that I wish the prices were a little lower. But I wish that about a lot of things. Overall I like the site.

Rip offs
July 11, 2019

I pay for games that don't get installed because of their technical issues, which they refuse to repair or even address. They'll give me a "coupon" to get a free game and that game won't install, either. I'm done with them

Games are made for you to lose. They want you to buy there fake chips with real money that have no value. They black list players who win big and than lose, you can't win anything. This is a racist game they pick on people from different countries that are not Froom the US.
Stay away from this total waste of time, all the games suck.

Scam artists
August 29, 2020

They put out a different version of games you have purchased to deceive you so you repurchase! Keep your receipts! They have tried doing this to me on more than several occasions! They are a big scam! Not a big fish! So sad it used to be a great company until they were sold. With everything going in the world... all the evil and corruption... I guess they fit right in! BOYCOTT!

I purchased a one-off special offer game. For a couple of quid. Next month the cheeky ba*****s took £5.39 from my bank as a monthly fee for their 'games club'

Steer clear of this company for not making it clear about further hidden charges

They have stopped producing any decent games and absolutely no TM games. I have asked for them to delete my account and all my personal details which they said they would. I confirmed it was my account then heard NOTHING from them. They advised they would do something but seemed to completely want to ignore my added requests of an update. I highly recommend staying away from these folks as they are not honest and the game quality you may pay for will be very low.

Their Technical Support staff sucks--They do not reply to anything but Criticism & then they come across like little hurt puppies... I was Smart & never spent a penny on their games & I suggest All other people do like-wise. When their Revenues sink to the bottom, they will have to use their brains & find real jobs... I found many other really Great free sites "out there"
