confiscations??

[ainse55]

i thought i would take a look at my transaction history on my casino account, and found to my surprise that upon three withdrawls, there had also been a confiscation each time to the tune of
confiscation$280.00
confiscation$100.00
confiscation$300.00

i took some screen shots to provide a visual. im not sure what these confiscations are for, nor was i informed about them prior to withdrawling. has anyone else ever had this happen to them? and what should i do about it??:sob:

Have to asked Vegas Palms what they were for and if so what did they tell you ?

 

[ainse55]

i just asked and was told it was because of deposits i made with ECHECK. i again reviewed my history and the only deposits i have ever made with ECHECK only totaled of 300.00. and i never had any of them come back on me or anything like that either. and if they had, i was never informed of it by either ECHECK or the casino.

Sticky bonus maybe? I can't remember if the FL has sticky bonuses anymore. BTW, you missed the total credits on the first shot

Although "confiscated" was not the term used at Inetbet, I show something very similar for a cashout from a ND chip that had a max cashout.

I would certainly hope that Vegas Palms provides you with an explanation of these confiscations better than they gave you.

Psssst..... listen closely for I shall say this only once.

There's a can of whoop ass out there with your name on it and it's gonna hurt... a lot. You can not reason with it. You can not even question it. You can't threaten it and don't even bother trying to stop it. For every second you waste trying to figure it out.... you are letting it "confiscate".



Don't ask me how I know or why I know..... Bottom line here is you have posted with a question and here's the answer.....

Step 1----

Go directly to Step 2

Act now .... Question and Kick ass later. You won't get answers or apologies!. You will only get dazed and confused by the run around.


Step 2 -----

Close each and every bank account you used to fund the ECHECKS .

Close it/Shut it down and Re-Open NOT transfer to another BUT Re-Open another brand spanking new, never been touched account.... at another bank even.... and live in peace.

Step 3 ----

Close/Cancel whatever and every credit/debit/pre-paid card you have used to deposit there.

Do not transfer to a new card but OPEN/ GET a brand spanking new one..... and live in peace.

Step 4-----

Double check steps 1 through 3..... then thank your lucky stars.

When you are sure any attempt to access money in your old accounts will hit a brick wall...... then you let the dogs out...!


Just like each casino has it's terms and conditions agreement that we click on "I agree" so we can play or "I disagree" to be kicked to the curb.

Each processor that the casino uses to collect our money has it's own Terms and conditions agreement. Each and everyone of the little logos in the banking section has a shit load of terms and conditions that we have agreed to when we signed up to use their service.

Some casinos also own the finance processors that handles getting your deposits and these ones too have there very own set of terms and conditions. The casinos terms and conditions include a " u agree to the t&C's of whichever processors we are using".......

If you ever entered and searched one of those funky looking names that your transactions fall under.... you may get to a simple website that provides the whole kit and caboodle of financial services to e-commerce stores.
Click on the T&C's ....... remove all sharp objects and hot liquids and get something to bite down on or a sock to muffle your screams...then read.

Remember these terms and conditions are the rules between the casino and the processor doing business together. They have both agreed to the others T&C's so they can do business together. Even casinos who own the processors agree to the T&C's of the processing department.

The processor has what the casino needs and when the processor has the casino by the short and curly 's you may as well say that as a bonus it has us by the nuts.

Go read a processors T&C's......

[EasyRhino]

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.

 

[babs7262]

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?

 

[ainse55]

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
