PokerStars aren’t perfect, but in some respects they are reliable.

Payouts, withdrawals and issuing tickets - they’re dependable.

It’s likely the the $5 you won is actually T$ (tournament dollars) which will not be visible on/in your main balance and the tickets will be visible in menu options or, as Zaner mentioned, you have been registered automatically.

Have a good search through your account in the lobby/menu, you will probably find them there.

Otherwise, contact Stars support.

I’ve found their support team on Twitter far more willing/capable to assist than the live chat or email support which at times can be woefully dire.

the support service in the chat is just great, they respond immediately, and solve the issue on the spot, no "wait, we'll answer you later" it's strange that they work slowly for you and quickly for me, the site is the same....

As others have said you probably misunderstand something here.

Request the tournament summary and you can share here for what you won and we can guide you where to find

when you type this in the forum, it would be nice to bring some screenshots or correspondence with the support service, believe me, no one will believe you that you won tickets and they did not credit them to your account, PS there is no point in doing such things

Usually the payout structure is one ticket for the first finishers (in your case two) and some additional money can be paid out to additional finsihers in case the prize money didn't suffice to create another ticket.

So as a winner, you will not get a ticket plus money.

Your ticket usually Auto-Registers you to the game you satellited for.

So indeed you do not see any additional money in your balance. But this is expected.

Didn’t say they were slow, said they can be woefully dire. :)

I’m pleased your experiences with them have all been positive.

Some of mine have been absolutely horrendous.

I’ve had “support” staff there deleting my messages out of our chat window, shutting the chat down without warning and more times than I can remember they’ve not even bothered reading or paying any attention to the actual query and sent back some copy-pasta, cookie cutter template reply that doesn’t address or resolve the situation at all.

Most of the time I spend X amount of time bashing my head against a brick wall before inevitably reaching the bedrock request of “can you send log files please” which I then do and never hear anything back on the matter ever again.

Some of my interactions with Stars support have been so disgraceful I’ve copied and kept a record of them.

I’m glad you haven’t had to go through any of that and hope you never have to! :)

It's possible they gave you T$ (money which only can be used for tournaments )
Look at your account in detail

Maybe you misunderstood something, or you are playing on a mobile phone, everything is a little messed up there.

The mobile App gets better ,Last update finally added a tournament lobby option again.
But still sometimes connection problems for 10-20sec which could have a severe Impact while you're playing a tourney...
Even with my new Xiaomi T12 Pro ,though the performance of the app is way better, the connection problem persists (wrote about that problem before )
So it's not my phone or my Internet connection. I've checked.. everything else works just fine

Right now everyone will scold you here and not believe you until you face it yourself, so I think you shouldn't prove to anyone the main thing is that you know for yourself that this is a bad room for you and you can't prove everything else, but the money should come if you don't come:)
