Eurolinx issues and interesting situation involving whale

That thread is pretty damn long so I'll give some very, very short cliff notes and then you can decide if you want to read more about it. The main thing that should immediately concern those that play there is the bolded section below:

1. OP is a huge whale (lost ~$4 mil last year) that played poker + house games at Eurolinx.
2. He requests withdrawal of $145k, but it takes too long, despite promises from management, etc.
3. Eurolinx offers him credit of $245K while he waits, but he loses it all in a short time.
4. Eurolinx then cancels his $145k bank wire and asks for an additional $100k from OP to cover the $245k.
5. OP thinks Eurolinx was stalling on the bank wire so he would lose their line of credit on their house games and never intended to pay him (basically they were freerolling him). OP also has reason to believe that Eurolinx is having cash and payment problems and are in fact being sued by PIC-Club (some sort of payment processor) for non-payment.
6. OP wants proof that Eurolinx had initiated the bank wire before paying them, but they refuse. Their tone in correspondence is pretty direct that they want their money now and with no negotiations.
7. Eurolinx refuses to respond to those allegations in the forum due to privacy concerns.
8. OP finds other instances where Eurolinx has commented on their players accounts on 2+2, totally owning Eurolinx Lydia (apprently some higher up that posts at 2+2 in an official capacity for Eurolinx).
9. Eurolinx Lydia responds saying that they are now formulating an official response.

I've been following this thread and the one about Tusk. I'd jump ship from prima/Microgaming entirely right now given these problems and MGS apparent unwillingness/inability to step up.

And life tilts ensues when OP changes his story at this late stage. He was not offered a $245K advance, he was offered 20K because they couldn't cancel one of the bank wires they were sending him. Then he lost that and kept asking for more until he got up to $245k.

At that point, all of a sudden they were able to cancel the bank wires (miraclulous, imo). So the question remains if they were able to pay but this new info certainly put into question the freeroll aspect of the whole thing.
