Casinomeister's Haiti Relief Fund

[Roanan]

Send MONEY only.

The US President(s) made it very clear last night in a speech that only cash should be donated.

Do not, under any circumstances, send anything else.


In addition it was also mentioned that your cash should only be given to registered non-profit organizations that were ALREADY active in Haiti BEFORE the crisis began.

So if Paypal is not an option for you, there are many other ways to assist, even via cellphone.


PS: If anyone has any change in their MoneyBookers account (I have .51c) and want to send it to my account, I'll gather it all together and send it to Bryan. Just go to this thread here.

i made my small donation i am unemployed and live in argetina wish to give more but i really dont have,but i think that 10 bucks here 10 there and etc etc will be a lot of help for that people

 

[The Dude]

Thanks all for the incoming donations. We're getting close to the 4k mark which is great.

I'm going to close off the donations this Friday instead f next week, mainly because I'll be on the road that week in London and too busy to monitor this.

I'm also bringing the goal post down some since the donations are mostly from players; many companies have already made donations (as well as a number of players) to other charities.

 

[The Dude]

As for the German - I'll look into this.

 

[chayton]

It's so awesome to see this. I haven't been working for the last little while while I recuperate so I'm too strapped to donate more, but if I could I'd do it here too. Proud of you guys! And a big WTG to Calvin Ayre for his generosity as well.

 

[The Dude]

Okay - we're doing great. A number of donations are coming in - some very generous, and all thoughtful.

I've decided against posting a leaderboard since this may make some people feel uncomfortable. What I am doing is sending these donations off in chunks.

2500 just went out - and please remember, these will be matched by the Calvin Ayre Foundation

 

[Webzcas]

This is excellent Bryan

If you run a gambling site, do what I have done and publicise the CasinoMeister Haiti Relief Fund to your visitors.

That's a lot of rice, bottled water, and medicine....

Good going gang!! And thanks to the CAF, also!

 

[rockycatt]

thanks

thanks Brian i went right away through the link in ultra's first post using
unicef

but will scrape up a bit more

 

[The Dude]

Doing great guys! 5k more just this morning!

There may be an issue with account limits at Paypal. If you are having issues sending PayPal payments, please PM me for alternatives.

Cheers!

 

[bonustreak]

WOW this is so awesome!!!!

This is not going to be open for long enough.

I have reactivated my PayPal account, but I have to go through various verification hoops before I can actually USE it.

It takes 7-9 days to confirm a bank account - too long.

I have connected my debit card, but again I have to wait, and enter a verification code from my bank statement before I can use it.

Interestingly, my PayPal seems to be running under dual currencies, the USD (primary) and UK Pound (secondary), so it looks like I can get PayPal to handle the conversion.

The fees are higher than I thought though. To pay via credit card, they add 3.4% +20p, and the BANK then adds a FURTHER 3% or more if the transaction hits the card in US Dollars. Funding with a credit or debit card is not allowed, only by bank transfer through preset direct debit. Cards can only be used as a connected back-up method if a payment exceeds the existing balance.

The 1 that was there a while ago has now vanished.

 

[The Dude]

Neteller is an option - just PM me.

Hi Bryan,

thanks for your efforts.

I am ashamed to report that I can't find the PM you sent out with the paypal email addy in it.

I have already sent some, (wish I had known sooner so I could double all that I wanted to send) but what I'd really like to do is provide the email addy on my facebook, if that is okay with you, which I assume there's not a lot I can do to cause you any further harm than already will /may be done by giving out your paypal address in the first place.

So to catch my friends so that their donations can get the Ayre double effect too.

I should know how to retrieve the PM but I couldn't on first attempt so rather than waste further time ... I thought I"d just ask if you could provide it again on here?

btw: I can either provide the addy to facebook friends via as an image or break it up like Steve at bondedcasinos.com

...........................


also someone mentioned the paypal link to donate was in German. That would be my experience also. That said, don't be put off if you're wanting to donate. Its quite easy to figure out which buttons to click whether you know German or not.

If you select your country from the drop/down list, the page will reload in a different language - it worked for me but took sometime to find it since its Kanada in German.

 

[bb1webs]

thanks. since I have already opened the PM with the Paypal address in it, and can't figure out why / where it went after that, i no longer have the paypal address which is necessary to send funds.

and actually I've already given but thought I could pass the paypal address along at facebook and get people there to donate thru Bryan and that way get the amounts doubled thanks to Calvin.

this is frustrating because I'm pretty sure my friends will donate so they should take advantage of Calvin's offer to get their money doubled instead of donating somewhere else.

feels like every dollar donated that doesn't go thru Ayres ... is a dollar wasted. That is frustrating lol.

 

[The Dude]

Thanks everyone for your generosity! We raised around 10k overnight, and around 17k since yesterday

I'll be getting these off to Oxfam sometime this morning.

As for the Paypal email address, it's donations@casinomeister.com. The only problem of posting it around, I won't know who the money is coming from. If you do this, please let people know to refer your user name in the comments box, and I'll give you credit for it.

Please bear in mind, I won't be doing this after Friday since I'll be heading to London, and I won't be able to dedicate the time it takes to manage this. So if you plan on donating, please do it as soon as possible.

I also noticed some members began to donate, but bailed out before a payment was sent. Please PM me if you're having difficulties. Thanks!

 

[bb1webs]

Will do Bryan. And I'm not worried about getting credit.

Was however, worried about getting that double the offer from Calvin Ayres.


that's righteous of him and sheds a much warmer light on what can be cold industry.

The problem seems to be that the donation is recorded too early. Even the act of following the link, and bailing because the form comes up in German, is enough for Vortran to think a donation has been made. You really should send that bunch of bolts to college

The second problem is that you get further, but find the PayPal "hoops" mean you have to bail and try again later when your method has been "verified".

I created my PayPal account in 2003 for a subscription payment to a website about Fruit Machine "insider info", and have never used it since.

 

[The Dude]

Oh well, Paypal is raining on our donation parade. They don't want us to do it anymore since I don't have an official letter from Oxfram stating that I am taking in donations under their name.

I understand they are "protecting" their customers, but c'mon - why be so anal?

So we are not accepting Paypal donations at this point. On the bright side, we collected over 20K - which mean after being matched by Calvin Ayre, that's 40k

$40k will buy a lot of water and basic medical supplies. Good going members!!

Here's the final batch from Paypal.

Understandable I guess why they have taken that action Bryan, however $40k is a great contribution for an appeal that has only been running on the site for a few days.

Hi again all,

When I received notice of this offer I got a letter from CM and one from another forum, which I think was from CAP but I naturally I can't find the letter. I imagine I deleted it when I chose to come here instead.

anyway what's important is helping these people out, so since Paypal has shut down things here at CM, Bryan do you know what other possible places there are that people could make their donation and then have it doubled by Ayres?

As mentioned I got two letters so I know there's at least one other place also doing this.

Sorry I can't offer more but maybe if not Bryan, then somebody else will read this and pick up the ball and run with it (offer a second place taking donations).

cheers.

 

[The Dude]

Not sure where else this is being done - so I can't really help. I'm still taking donations by the way via Neteller.

But only until tomorrow (Friday).

 

[bonustreak]

40k! That is really awesome!
