It is more than likely that Grand Prive have you marked down as a "bonus abuser" in their internal database, and this of course is shared between all their operations, even the disguised ones like Big Dollar, Mandarin Palace, Grand Eagle, etc.

    Another thing that can happen with US players is that a processor will fail to obtain and pass on a deposit to the casino, even though the casino credits the money up front, and the player uses it. This can end up with the PLAYER being flagged for "chargeback" fraud, when it is really a case of the processor nicking the money, or the US banking system blocking the transaction, and it ending up with the DoJ in one of the many minor seizures that don't make headlines.

    True third party databases only hold information related to fraud, so if the incident with English Harbour was related to them wrongly accusing you of fraud, it may NOT actually have been "cleared up", but rather "swept under the carpet" by English Harbour who decided to take the risk, but NOT "cleared up" on any third party databases used by processors.

    Until you send documents, casinos use your registration information to run these checks. If there are any doubts they will ask for documents up front. This is actually a GOOD idea, and will work better if it became accepted as standard throughout the industry. It would prevent all the problems of players depositing and playing for some time, only to have their eventual winnings confiscated once the casino has seen and refused the documents after the first withdrawal.

    You show from your post why operators say they will have so much trouble implementing this on their own, and need this to be done by mutual agreement throughout the industry.

    If you think their service sucks after all this, DON'T PLAY THERE! Don't even give them the time of day, let alone your documents in order to BEG to be let in.

    It's nearly all over in the US anyway, and I can't see Betonsoft casinos staying clear of DoJ action for much longer. The DoJ have already cleared out many of the major operators, and are now moving in on the rest. Rival have already been "leant on" sufficiently to stop taking on new players, and TopGame is pretty dodgy, even if individual casinos are better run than others.

    Betonsoft would be great, but they seem to "have it in for you", and it is unlikely you will EVER be fully accepted by them as a genuine player. Even if they DO let you in, you will most likely find you are given a second class service because they don't really want you because of this "negative information". Confirming your ID is not going to make this negative information go away, nor any less negative.
    You may be right, but we don't know why she is on the negative database. It might be completely unrelated to bonuses.....it could be multiple accounts or chargebacks etc. The op already has an unsuccessful PAB, so who knows? I doubt the op is going to be forthcoming.

    Let's just see how the next PAB goes....if Max will accept it. I'm sure there are heaps of affiliates out there who would be happy to help

    Looks like you are right, refreshed the page and seen she just got to be a "banned user". I doubt very much that she will be allowed to play there anyway. Fraud WOULD be flagged on a processor level database, one that all casinos could see who use that same group of processors.

    Maybe not directed at me ---- but I do tend to be protective of those I consider to be solid contributing members of the forum. Nifty is in that category.

    A) I am not "squealing"
    b) at this pt. I don't care about answers and was not expecting anything instant
    c) I was not trashing ANY casino's. I was stating FACTUAL info that I was given and can back up. And my tone? You don't know me. I don't know you. It would be virtually impossible to know anyone's "tone", body language or anything else over a PC screen


    "Tone" was implied by your wording -- IMO


    Advice to you and your cronies: All of YOU need to "chill", stop making JUDGMENTS UPON PEOPLE whom you don't even know, or know their intentions and actually be friendly instead of assholes.

    Check my history of posts here ----- I help everyone and rarely take offense, I am offended by your calling me or others here "a__h___s". Not necessary AT ALL. (caps used intentionally - BTW)


    and like another member pointed out who cares about CAPS USAGE. If writing nasty things to people on forums all day is what you chose to partake in that's fine. I don't. My life is not casino's and casino forums and I could care less about trite petty bullshit such as this.


    This probably isn't the right place for you -- if my posts send you off citing "petty" bs.

    I thought this would be a decent forum but evidently not as most of you appear to have a screw loose.
    Well, you are right here, it IS A DECENT FORUM - best I have found after checking out a lot. But we aren't for everyone.

    However, having said all that and from content of my other posts. If you want, start over and get off this topic. You can start fresh IMO after your 24 hour vacation.

    IMO because if cc is used, the casinos are vulnerable to a chargeback. I think there is always a "credit" risk for casinos.

    shame on you nifty, be nice, you can tell a person to stop using caps without being so insulting. like "please do not use caps people think that you are yelling" and leave it at that. You might want to try it, i hope that you are a lot different in person than you are online when i think of you nifty and your posts i picture you as an 80 year old man who hasn't been laid in a while. LMAO

    well I could have said something about using caps incorrectly. or not using caps when required. But it wasn't about grammar it was about the OP being rude. she knew what she was doing she's been around for years.

    actually I am a horrible and rude person offline.

    No, that wouldn't be quite right.

    As with real life, there will be people you will meet that you will just NOT like. Such will be forum life. You have several choices, 1) You will get along, 2) you won't get along and you will ignore each other or 3) you won't get along and postings become bashfests which derails threads and causes "vacations/timeouts" and gets threads closed.

    With the grand prive issue, If they can run off with affiliates money what's to say they wont skip town with yours.

    It's an issue of trust and integrity not how the casino is operating now.

    If you have not read it yet then THIS would be an interesting read for you.

That said, I don't remember sending any documents out of the ordinary, e.i. driver's license, utility bill etc. but it's been a while since I was verified so they could have changed verification processes. As for running credit checks, I can say that they didn't run one on me. I get my credit reports so I know who is looking. They could be running verification with Telecheck or something like that possibly instead of an actual credit check because whether or not you pay your bills on time would be none of their business.

    Are they requesting out of the ordinary verification documents? If it is something you don't feel comfortable producing, then don't and write them off. If you really, really want to play there, then you will have to give them what they want.

    I have only been playing at Treasure Mile for a short time simply as an alternative to Top Game and RTG, and Rival -- nice variety and change of pace.

    I have a pending withdrawal and they have been informative and helpful. I feel "good" about the site and usually my radar goes up pretty quickly if there is a hint of a problem. I like the casino and think you should chill and just do as they ask. If you don't want to comply, then move on to another casino.

    We have had many infrequent or new posters pop up lately just to trash one casino or another, it isn't pretentiousness, it's irritation IMO.

    Quick to squeal -- wanting instant answers and trashing casinos irritate the heck out of me on these posts. So right or wrong, I didn't like your tone either.

    Now having said that --- my advice FWIW -- is settle down, and wait and see what happens.

    Diane
    How can anyone read this forum and think the people are not good people? I continue to learn about how I should act when I read these posters and the many others here that are straight shooters and like to help people.

    And Nifty may at times be a bit cranky, but he has been around almost from the beginning here. I know I would get a bit cranky sometimes after reading hundreds of the same gripes and same people that like to be belligerent. He does have feelings and does like to help people, too. I am proud to call him and the others above some of my friends here.

    Casinos are entitled to do a credit check, if it's in their terms and conditons. But it's important to know that ever credit check done on you impacts your credit score. So don't just sign up for a new card at the mall for a free pen.

    I actually think that casinos asking for documentation before depositing is some sign of integrety. Not that they will just take your money now and find a way to not pay you later.
