World Golf Tour [WGT] game is not free

This site is a scam! I joined www.wgt.com and started the game. At the beginning there was a tutorial ho to play the game and when I finished it I was told that I have to pay money to continue the game! This game is not free, beware! I never wasted my money on games, so I decided to quit. There is nowhere told that this world golf tour costs money! When you join this site you have to rent those holes and pay some money for each 9 holes. Ridiculous. Don't waste your money and time here!

This claim is full of crap! I just don't know where the hell the OP got that info but it is not true at all. The game is totally FREE to play unless you purchase some of the equipment from the pro shop and it's entirely up to you whether you want to buy or not, nobody's forcing you.

World Golf Tour [WGT] problems with navigation

I was playing the game on the website www.wgt.com within 3 weeks. But I was disappointed in it. It was difficult to navigate and the ball didn’t fall to the lunule. I tried to be careful and wasted a lot of time, when I played, but it was impossible to get where you needed. I stopped to play, because I didn’t get the necessary score and my time finished on this website. Terrible website and game.

World Golf Tour [WGT] business practices

World Golf Tour is an online program where you can play virtual golf rounds. It touts itself as being "free" for anyone who joins as a member. What they don't tell you is that in order to actually enjoy the game (hit a ball 200+ yards with a driver) you need to buy better clubs. The best part about this CRAP site and its employees is that the clubs and balls you buy with money, depreciate over time. You buy a driver for $8 they will buy it back for $2 almost immediately. The best part is that it doesn't even improve the gameplay. The moderators on the forum are absolute #S and will cherry pick and delete posts that don't show the company in a good light. Suggestions are grounds for deletion of your account. Essentially, this scam site is still a "beta" and has been for two years. Basically, allowing them to say that the game is seriously flawed but oh well it's a beta. They essentially deny all liability, have a NO RETURNS policy, and offer you a garbage product. Yet they are charging money for people to buy golf balls that need to be replaced every other round... This place is a joke and you should just stay away from it and its inbred employees

They will disable your account if you paint WGT in a bad light; I have already submitted reviews that will never be seen in their forums about the game manipulation and favoring players that have paid for certain game features used against other golf players during match plays and tournaments. E.G. Using a LW for a 23 yard flag against a 32mph wind on a flat green surface- and the laws of physics would cringe at a 83 yard roll results; a 3 wood against a 10 mph wind would never go more than 245 yards, but on this game- it does!

I deposited 5.00. It shows 500.00 from my bank records. This is a mistake I need a refund. I was playing Jan 6, 2019 and needed to add a few dollars to purchase new balls. I deposited $5.00. Today I checked my bank account and see that $ 500.00 was deducted. This is an error. I want an immediate refund.
