This isn't one of those I won a huge amount of money and they won't pay posts.
It's not that serious, thank goodness.
Anyway....this is the deal.
RTG slots are my favorite and it seems that I get more bang for my buck with
RTG's than others, so I'm open to new places to play, so I downloaded POC. With neteller no longer an option, it's tough to find a way to fund a small potatoes account.
I've tried several different places, (I'm just a small time player) and never cashed out, so the bonuses at POC looked good. I made a few 20 deposits and used coupons for a 30% bonus, no maximum cashout, just in case I won the big one! Of course I didn't cash......anyway I received a email asking me to send in my documents, which I thought was strange since I hadn't cashed out. It was about 3 weeks before I sent them in due to an illness. After I sent them I tried to log in but I couldn't, so I phoned in, they unlocked it but still I wasn't able to make a deposit. It was set to 0 min and 0 max. I did get two or three free chips after calling in to get it fixed and I did make one 25:00 deposit by chat. This went on for 3 or 4 weeks, I was getting really frustrated with them not getting the deposit issue fixed. I was beginning to wonder how such inept management could run a legit operation, I was also getting nervous about sending them my id...and copies of my card.
In the mean time I stumbled into the forum and read all the negative stuff about them and then I got really nervous. So I decided that I was not going to play there. Well low and behold...2 strange charges show up in my bank statement. Both of them to the same place and something that I had never heard of, and the charges were odd amounts, not big at all but still charges, $18. and some odd cents. I googled the place listed on my statement and the only web pages I found were 2 pages with info on how to contact them if you had an issue with a charge on your CC. Very strange indeed! So I phoned them and they could not give me any other info on who had made the charges they just said they would credit me back......and they did. In the meanwhile I was still afraid other charges might show up so I phoned the bank and they advised me to cancel the card. I did and all it well, but I have a very strong suspicion that those 2 charges were related to me sending that info to POC. I can't prove it, but I feel it in my gut. I want to sum it up by saying I'm glad this forum is here....Thanks! It most likely saved me a lot of trouble down the road.
