Doesn't look "sorted" - the complaint is today.

Try sending a copy to Villento, I am sure THEY will have it out with Club World because of the use of Villento by what is effectively a subcontracted EMPLOYEE of Club World marketing. I expect it would get more attention, and at a higher level of management, if a competitor business made a complaint, which would have the backing of a team of lawyers, and would effectively be an order to "sort it NOW", rather than the usual approach of negotiating with errant affiliates.

The problems with Club World affiliate program goes deep, it seems these dodgy affiliates JUST KEEP ON COMING, there is no overall control, and no improvement in this since players started assisting them by making spam reports.

My experience of reporting spam is not good either. I hardly EVER receive a reply, so I do not even know what is being done - nothing at all it seems.

There seem to be VERY strong measures in place to pick up fraudulent players, yet it seems affiliates can run riot largely unchecked. Players have the RIGHT to expect these SAME kinds of measures are being used to identify affiliates that act outside of the terms, and in many cases, outside of the LAW.

The spam is also likely to be indiscriminate, for all we know, the decision makers in the Whitehouse over in the USA, and over here in Parliament, are receiving the same deluge of casino related spam on their private email addresses as we are, and this will certainly be influencing their views of this whole industry, comparing it with the likes of bogus online pharmacies, or those notorious "419" scams - since some of the casino spam is worded in a similar way, such as "give up your day job, earn a living playing at xxxxxx online casino - click here and register an account".
