This is incorrect, and I must defend my casino and the group behind it at this blatant misinformation and stoking.
IF you are in any way able to play at a sister site after self-excluding from another one, and that is in some way our fault - you WILL be refunded in full.
This statement only serves to sow misinformation and is borderline libelous. We are a responsible company, and if errors are made, we rectify them, even if it costs us money and if it takes some time to calculate, verify and sort out.
Please confirm to me why you believe this, and if necessary I'll be more than happy to get Bryan involved.
Just to confirm, are you saying
If you are self excluded in another casino within the group but manage to play on GUTS, if you win you will pay their winnings, rather than just refund deposits?
If you will refund the deposits and not pay the winnings, then how exactly is the post you quoted close to libelous? It states you won't pay the winnings, which is how I understood it works.
Some places takes it all, both deposits and winnings, which was what MrSilver was claiming that Guts do.
They don't. All deposits will be paid back. It is suppose to be like the player never have been in. No loss - no winnings.
If all players just could stop self excluding from everywhere this problem would stop. If you don't have a gambling problem don't use that damn button!!
Once you win and try to withdraw....sadly it will be all seized!

I read it as winnings would be seized
Agree with you of he meant all monies though
Having said that casino's should be more up front if you do self exclude as to what other casino's you are stopping yourself from playing at. It wouldn't take much to have on the SE page 'please be aware if you self exclude from here you are also self excluded from other sites using the same gaming license, namely xxx,xxx,xxx'
Never understand why they don't do that, maybe YITs can explain?

Sounds like UKGC requirements that we can't escape in order to be able to provide you guys with the service. PM me details, and I'll chase along with the others.
My Guts account is up and running but I don't think Guts Casino has had my ID sent in. I will upload what I have but the photo ID is actually out of date.. I'd probably play more with Guts if my ID was approved with the photo ID I have :notworthy
How smart was that to state in public? Now we all know that they won't and can't approve it, and for good reasons.
That would open up to everyone who has an outdated ID. Maybe make a new one is a good idea
This goes back to my complaint to Yits ages back when the Rizk CS agent miraculously reactivated my Guts account while on live chat, but later I was told this HADN'T happened by Yits as the Rizk CS wasn't able act on Guts, only Rizk. Yet the Guts was closed (I tried it) during chat then open a minute after that failed try, while still on the same chat. Never did get an explanation.
Last night (after reading Capt. Rizk's post regarding they've now re-opened Rizk accounts like mine that weren't KYC'd and shut after 72 hours automatically by auto-verifying them remotely) I had a small deposit at Rizk and then found I am still SE'd from Guts! So something is clearly a bit odd with these sites under the Guts license - it appears you CAN play at one while SE'd from another.
Sorry to quote my own post. There were very few issues when Guts added Betspin to their license. It seems that the addition of Rizk has somehow caused problems, especially in integrating/cross-referencing info. At least they try, unlike casinos operating under the UK EM License who don't give a flying one.
I think this is relevant, as despite the problems in the thread here, it is clear they always endeavour to treat their players correctly: (Received today)
Dear Mr Rhino-loser,
it has come to our attention that during a recent batch UK ID verification routine, your account at Rizk was incorrectly re-opened during a Self Exclusion period and that you were able to access your account and furthermore deposit. This, of course, should not have happened and we are working to understand why this happened to your account and around 200 others. All accounts, yours included, have now been reset to their correct status however as you were able to make a deposit during this window then of course we will refund this and any/all fees associated.
Our customer services team will be in touch with you directly later today to process this refund. IN the meantime please accept my apologies for this error on our part.
Kind regards
Tim
OK, now what's happened here (to make things clear) is that I wasn't SE'd at Rizk anyway, but they auto-closed my account due to lack of verification in 72 hours. (see my original post I quoted). But I was at Guts.
So they are obviously trying hard to ensure that unlike the EM debacle they will be able to cross-reference players at the casinos under their license. So when it's all sorted, you wont have the EM SE-BS scenario and resulting complaints. Which is good and what you'd expect from a good casino group.
I don't know what you're trying to do here VWM. I thought you were a little smarter than that and I feel really disappointed.
You're saying that this group is lying about there being any Neteller fraud but they claim that to be able to profit from Card deposits.
These guys have proved to be honest and I belive them a 100%!!
I have actually raised this with Neteller VIP, and they are unaware of any problem, and see no reason for "anti Neteller" terms at casinos. Does this mean that Neteller VIP are lying to their VIP customers about the issue?
I was also told "this should not happen", and they asked me to send them examples of such anti-Neteller terms, and I sent them the one at Ladbrokes. Neteller are fully aware that I have raised this issue, and more than once.
Neteller even advertise casinos and their welcome bonus, so it makes no sense for Neteller users to see such an advert on Neteller, and then find that they can't deposit via Neteller in order to claim the offer. If Neteller are "unaware" of casinos banning Neteller deposits from the offers, they could be inadvertently breaking the law here in the UK through misleading advertising.
A 2.5% surcharge on debit card deposits IS "profiting", rather than "covering transaction costs", as debit card transactions are charged at a fixed amount, not a percentage of the transaction. CREDIT cards are a different matter, here the banks DO levy charges based on a percentage of the transaction.
It is also predatory behaviour to BOTH take the unusual step of charging a fee to players for debit card deposits, whilst at the same time allowing free deposits from a deposit method that actually costs the casino more, but from which they ban users from taking part in any casino promotions so as to steer them towards using debit cards, and then getting stung for 2.5% of the amount deposited.
At 32Red, which has had a bashing for adding pending periods and stopping weekend processing, there is NO CHARGE for depositing via debit card, not even for CREDIT cards. Not only that, Neteller deposits are not restricted from any of the promotions. If 32Red can offer free deposits and allow Neteller deposits for promotions, and still GROW it's profits year on year, other casinos should also be able to do the same.
I have been playing since 2004, and charges for making deposits isn't something I have experienced. I have, very rarely, come across charges for withdrawals. Intercasino used to charge a flat rate of £1 per withdrawal.
See Yits hasn't been in today to answer any questions, thats a bit surprising considering how angry he was at some of the comments.
It bloody does, they probably are not on commission but get paid to advertise the site & most probably a sign up, They couldnt care less if the casino accept there payment method, Skrill certainly did not want to know when one casino didnt offer me the offer skrill advertised? If they was that bothered why still have the same offer weeks later?
Yes it would make sense to advertise sites that accept there payment but just like any other site there making cash for advertisement, I would of thought that was a clear breath of false advertisement offering deals that do not exist yet still carry on doing it,

It does not make sense to blatantly disregard the law given that Neteller have to be authorised in the UK in order to give the service it does to UK customers. Besides, the ASA now polices the internet, so an advert on Neteller's site is just as regulated as one being shown on Channel 5 after 9pm.
The ASA may also go after the casinos in the advert, as they may regard Neteller as the publishing medium. If an ad on TV is misleading, the ASA will go after the company being promoted, not the TV channel operator showing it.
Being complaint driven, the ASA will only investigate an ad that someone has brought to it's attention. Getting a sanction from the ASA isn't going to do the casino any favours with the UKGC either.
This pretty much proves that the old method of verifying ID wrongly excluded a large number of innocent players, many of whom obviously walked to a competitor rather than face the hassle of getting their accounts unblocked. That's a large number of lost customers, some of whom could have gone on to be profitable depositing customers. Quite a few casinos in the past must have lost a fortune in potential turnover as this has been the industry standard way of verifying players until quite recently.
As for the "we are a completely different company", it tends to fall on deaf ears now because so often players have been screwed over by what they believed was a "completely different company", only to have winnings confiscated due to an action at the "other completely different company". Cassava and EveryMatrix should be awarded some kind of trophy for the number of times their skins have been "completely independent companies" when players are depositing and losing, but then "sister sites" when they win and there is an opportunity to confiscate it.
I don't think anyone at Neteller can discuss such matters as fraud with their customers, no matter how much a VIP that person is. That would be to admit they have a security problem and I doubt they will do that.
The fact that only UK are prevented from using Neteller speaks louder than words, so I say I rather believe the casinos in this.
They don't want to lose their customers. The easier it is for us to deposit the more money they'll get.
You are just speculating but are making it sounding like you know the truth. You're good at that

In the general bonus terms (from the link at the bottom of the homepage) and also referenced in the current 4 days of promotions
View attachment 67569
If It is wrong then they've lost a few hundred pounds worth of deposits from me this week. Because I would have deposited on each of the 4 days.
Also Neteller deposits are free. If I use my debit card, they charge 2.5%
They should not be charging for DEBIT cards, they have a fixed transaction fee, not a percentage like credit cards. This makes no sense because Neteller charge far more than debit cards, the casino is trying to steer players away from Neteller, so they make Neteller deposits free and hit debit card users with a significant charge. Effectively, they are charging 2.5% of your deposit for the privilege of having a bonus because you can't claim them with the method that lets you deposit for free.
The true test is whether someone manages to WITHDRAW after taking a bonus with Neteller. The problem isn't one of not being able to get the bonus, even at Casino Cruise. The problem is that the system will credit the bonus on a Neteller deposit even if it's not permitted to take that bonus.
Maybe it's also free to deposit with Paysafe, which is also Neteller, just a different one of their payment products.
They should tackle Neteller over this problem, not just abandon players. Neteller would do something about the problem if they felt casinos were taking it seriously enough to hit Neteller in the pocket. However, it seems casinos are not willing to fall out with Neteller, even though the problem is SO bad that ordinary players are getting hammered in the crossfire.
Of course, maybe it's not "fraud" at all, just casinos deciding that a perfectly ordinary activity is "fraud" in the same way that some say playing Blackjack well is "fraud", or that playing with the intention of winning is "fraud".
Maybe it's all a ruse to steer players away from Neteller and over to using debit cards, for which they can charge 2.5% of all deposits to cover their fixed 50p per transaction fee. This would be a "nice little earner" to actually make a tidy PROFIT from deposit fees charged to players, as opposed to eating the costs, or extracting only a partial recovery from the players. I doubt Neteller is free either, but casinos are still prepared to eat the Neteller deposit fees DESPITE the fact that they get all this "fraud" via Neteller, and Neteller sees no reason to address it.
