Virtex exchange - any experience to share?

[sugarfree]

I came across a bitcoin price prediction contest with Virtex as one of the sponsors:

I have to use services like this on a regular basis and Virtex looks decent - trading fees and everything.
Does anyone have a real life experiense with them?

Thanks.

Regarding virtex.com, my experience to share is unfortunately not very good.

I deposited quite a bit, did some trading, and everything went fine.
But when it came time to withdraw, it was impossible.

First, I requested a fiat withdrawal.  Nothing happened.
A few days later, I requested a cryptocurrency withdrawal. Again, this was ignored.
All my messages to support went unanswered.
Emails were ignored.
Live chat was constantly offline.

It has been nearly ten days now, and the company is still trading. But they have not yet paid us, and there is no way to reach them. I am afraid it looks like a scam unless we hear something back from them very shortly regarding their plans to pay the money that they owe their customers for trading with them.

Update: Both egopay.com and virtex.com are now down (and probably gone forever)

If anyone has more info on the crooks behind these two sites, CEO Mantas Gustys and founder Tadas Kasputis, please post here or contact via PM. We are working on getting law enforcement to pursue the matter since they have so far not contacted any of their users with a proposal to pay us back what they stole.
I lost a lot.
Never again trust Tadas Kasputis, Paulius Meskauskas, Mantas Gustys or Tomas Andzelis
The heist has already been reported to the FBI by longtime user bitboy11.
