We are expected to guess, or look around the net for rumours.
This email (which I haven't received yet from ANY of my Digimedia casinos), gives no date, just an assurance it's going to happen. Since the implementation date has been known for a while now, why can't they give us a definitive date, such as 1st October. Lack of a date means that they could still arbitrarily lock accounts on any date between now and then, yet the tone of the email leaves players with the impression that the lockout will be driven by the UK implementing the changes, which would be midnight 30th Sept/1st Oct.
Apart from the date, we still don't have a proper list of what constitutes " Digimedia casinos", so unless we get the email from a specific casino, we are still in the twilight, possibly in the dark.
As for EveryMatrix being "safe" because it's UK based, this has proven not to be the case, and if one Everymatrix casino locks out UK players because of the regulations, it is quite possible others will, but as before, players will not be getting advance notice.
The only sure way to steer clear of the fiasco is to ONLY play at casinos that have declared an intent to remain in the UK market. The implementation of the regulations on Oct 1st then gives us an even better means to determine "safe" casinos, as all those with the UK licence have to display the logo on their website. UK players can then use the simple rule "No logo, no deposit from me".
It's poor planning by all parties involved that no thought was given to the players during this transitional period. We have been left with no means to check the evolving status of casinos during this transitional phase, thus we can get caught out.
