There is a related thread re VIP bonuses, the "confiscations" were apparently related to chargebacks. I am assuming they were inadvertent, since the OP and casino seem happy.

to me: confiscate means to have something you shouldnt have in the first place taken away from you ie...drugs at the airport, guns and/or drugs/money at a drug house , money you didnt obtain legally.
Im just saying what the word means for those who arnt sure, Im not saying this money was illegal in no way shape or form![]()
I am very cynical when I see a newly joined(this month) posts about a casino and at the very end applauds THE CASINO and then say (s)he would not play anywhere else...Why wasn't this checked out first before crying wolf?
Am I to run to Fortune Csino now that I know thjey pay (something they are supposed to do anyway
GEESH! gULLIBLE gULLIBLE gULLIBLE

Besides that, if you're going to post an issue that could affect other players, why not follow it up with a post explaining how it was resolved?
We all took the time to read the thread and some helped out where they could with suggestions. But in then we are kept in the dark as to what happened.![]()
Nothing from the player or casino rep...was it a misunderstanding or was some back room deal reached?![]()

i actaully did post saying it had been resolved. there was 300 dollars from which i used echeck, and the echecks"bounced" i guess youd say, so i owed the 300. the remaining was repayed to me in less then an hour. i never said i had any problem with fortune lounge ever i was simply looking to see if anyone had ever exprienced a similar instance.
This explains only one of the confiscations, are the other 2 also down to bounced eChecks?
I am surprised the casino paid other withdrawals AFTER you gave them a rubber echeck, as often a bounced deposit leads to all sorts of trouble, and usually results in voiding of all winnings thereafter.
It is still worth while trying to find out WHY this is happening, as other casinos are not so understanding as FL seem to be on this, and often assume the player has deliberately "bounced" the echeck, either by actively cancelling it, or by negligently not having enough funds in their bank account to pay the echeck when it attempts to clear.

I don't know what actually happened but in defense of the OP, I had Netspend bounce a deposit to QT, which I posted about in the QT/Netspend thread. I didn't do anything wrong, money was there. Got me in all manner of pooh with QT. I got mine straightened out so it is possible that the OP didn't do anything wrong but her bank did it.

i didnt do anything wrong, it was the bank that made the error, FL was very understanding, as far asthe other confiscations, they were internal errors,and i was reimbursed as soon as they were aware of it, which was just after i made the post, i got incontact with the FL contact on this site, and he was quick to look into the situation, as soon as he saw the error he credited me back the funds. like AS SOON as he saw it i was surprised that it was all taken care of so quickly, and to boot as an apology for the error i recieved a bonus from him as well. Again, Thanks Wim for all the help you provided me with regards to this error
