    A quick heads up: despite not reply to my e-mails, PKR have refunded the $250 to my Neteller account, still banned from bonuses but I'm very happy with the outcome.

    Thanks to all for their efforts in the thread, and thanks to PKR for doing the right thing

    I can (unofficially) confirm that PKR has had a change of heart regarding what they call "bonus seekers". This is not an official announcement but I do think it important to flag this because it represents a significant step forward for them on behalf of the affected players. Indeed,

    One thing I can state without prejudice is that they havent settled with me. I am happy that others are getting what they are entitled to.

    That's odd, fingers crossed for you sir, I'm sure it won't be long before they payout now.

    They actually seemed really nice and helpful too; I checked my Neteller and it wasn't there, they then sent the payment a few minutes later, along with an e-mail apologising and checking if I'd got it

    The deciding factor? So the removal of bonus funds isn't that significant for you, but what is actually a truthful statement on their website (it's only your opinion that is was put there to deliberately mislead) is something that would get a site blacklisted?

    Your logic and priorities are bizzare, and by association your blacklist becomes meanlingless.

    LOL. It appears that my latest contribution to this thread has been overtaken by events, but having put in the time earlier today I'm going to post it anyway!

    I've been in contact with the AGCC, and the recommendation is that Topoor should request that her case be reviewed.

    I quote from the AGCC email:

    "On a principle level, I can tell you there is a complaint procedure on our website which is copied from the Regulations for ease of access to agrieved players. If a player is not satisfied with how the AGCC has dealt with his complaint I would strongly suggest that the complaint be escalated in terms of the provisions of the said procedure.

    (Regulation 341 which is fully explained on the AGCC website - see the page on Player Protection)"

    I don't feel the need to justify my actions to any shill.

    What I do, I do for the players, not for the business and not to make you or the poker room in question happy.

    If you or your employers have any objections or comments you would like to make about my decision to place PKR.com in my Casino Hall of Shame, please feel free to leave them on my site, I will publish them...

    BTW - "deciding factor" does not mean I did not consider the closed accounts, seized monies, failure to follow their own bonus rules and sleezy treatment of players, I did. Just that the obvious attempt to mislead players into thinking that PKR was licensed to operate and regulated by the UKGC, was the straw that broke the camels back... The deciding factor for me, so to speak.

    ADDED:
    Also I can say without a doubt, that I am most certainly not the only person that believes the statement by PKR was misleading...

    I say "was" because PKR has changed the text in the last 24 hours. Now I believe it is even more misleading to the casual observer(Player) now than it was before.

    .
    Sure you don't, however it was me that made the statement, I have no connection with PKR, nor have I ever been in their employ at any time in the past.

    What exactly is your vested interest, because while they deservedly are getting a kicking over the bonus issue, the RNG nonsense in the other thread is clearly just the ravings of another loser, as is usually the case, and the license point is just pedantry at its worst, and yet you're trying to rank it up there with the likes of UB, Ap or Poker Spot. I presume there is something in this for you? Just a chance to post your spam perhaps?

    I find it particularly annoying, that someone so full of their own self-importance, can think of no other reason for someone disagreeing with them, than that they have a vested interest in the site concerned.

    As I said in the other thread, when I joined here over 4 years ago, was it some sort of psychic moment, aware that I would have to defend 'my' site? If you really believe that I feel sorry for you.

    Ya, I get the satisfaction of seeing that a few poker players do not get ripped off.

    My spam huh... I posted that link so people would not get confused that I was speaking for CM's Rogue Casino list. Besides, I believe Bryan and the mods here decide what is or is not spam on this board, not you.

    Your just using shill tactics, to hijack and derail this thread, with non-related crap and trying to start a fight so the thread will get closed. Again all expected and well used shill tactics.

    Why shouldn't this get 'elevated' to the likes of Absolute Poker and ultimate bet?
    Aren't people getting ripped off...

    (Although, I would have thought this situation with PKR.com was more like ministeringangel, than Absolute Poker...)

    I believe there is good reason to expect that is forthcoming. It's my understanding from PKR that the bonus -- that being the monies in question in your case -- has been credited but your access to the account is still up in the air due to some "identity verification" issues.

    I believe the problem is that you and your son (?) are both using the account? Not sure of the details, check with your PKR contact.
