Ritz Club no more / is back

[KasinoKing]

They didn't close they just don't accept new players correct?

That's what their web-page says.
But that's ALL it says - there is no information for existing customers!

They are reportedly switching to Playtech soon anyway so we ARE still going to lose a great Crypto.

Ritz is back up and accepting new players. Still on Crypto but due to switch to Playtech:

You may have been aware of the recent press coverage, and the fact that we disabled our website for new customer acquisition for several days this week. I must apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused, and can confirm that the website is back live again.

I would like to reassure you that we will continue to offer the same level of service and quality of games, and will be going ahead with our planned migration to the Playtech software platform
