It's that time of the year again...Casinomeister Awards

[RobWin]

I'm a huge Rival fan - I know they have had a few issues this year I think Sloto Cash should get some recognition as the best Rival IMO

Favorite game Scary Rich # 1

Me too, I wish they would come around and get themselves accredited here, can't quite figure that one out especially since John was also on here so much in the past...

 

[heatherad]

Best Casino ClubWorld....have never had any major problems with them

Best Casino Manager Tom at ClubWorld...always takes care of things right away

Best Customer Support ClubWorld...they have Live Support, toll free numbers to call, and email. Each and every time I've had to use one of the above I've always gotten through to someone and they were more than happy to oblige.

Best Newest I-Gaming-Rep on Casinomeister Louise..lets hope she continues this long after the hoopla dies down

Biggest Disappointment Both MG and Grand Prive

Worse Casino Name Toss up between Pamper Casino and Virgin Casino(sorry folks, lol)

Worse Casino Group Anything Virtual and coming in right behind them is MG

My Idea for a new catagory is..Casino Needing to Improve Customer Support Inetbet....they need to incorporate either Live Customer Support or Toll free numbers instead of relying on Emails

Worse Casino Game(s) 3Dice's Industria, Payola

worst country for onling gambling = the good ol usa, trying to tell people what they can and cant do with there own hard earnt cash,

the best? anywhere in europe ?

 

[KasinoKing]

the best? anywhere in europe ?

Nope, not anywhere - the UK!

I'm pretty sure I'm right in saying that here in the UK we can play ANY casino on the internet, and at 99% of them we can play in any currency the casino has to offer!

My Idea for a new catagory is..Casino Needing to Improve Customer Support Inetbet....they need to incorporate either Live Customer Support or Toll free numbers instead of relying on Emails

Worse Casino Game(s) 3Dice's Industria, Payola

Totally agree with you about iNetBet (which century do they think we are in?) and Crapola... oooops! sorry - Payola

But I can't agree about Industria - that slot rocks!

[anniemac]

I am going to have to agree with Heatherad on the best casino and customer service - Club World all the way for me with Slotocash a close 2nd.

Casino that needs to get it together - Absolute Slots. Love the games, hate the sketchy payout times.

I can't vote for worst casino because I only play at 3 regularly with 2 more Rivals a maybe.

Maybe its also about time we had a separate vote by I-gaming reps to know what they think of our forum members eg Most difficullt member to deal with, most understanding member etc. No offences taken for the former as we are grown-ups and must be prepared to take on criticisms.

We could do with more voices from the other side to bridge the chasm.

 

[same_old]

What about good old hippo jo??? I can not remember if they pulled there act this year or the last...
If it is this year then by far the worst casino.

[vinylweatherman]

Stupid name: LOL...that religious one that i forgot the name of(because it was so stupid)

Biggest disappointment: MG MG MG

Best Customer Service 3 dice

Worst Software glitches: Rival

Nicest new Rep: Louise from RTG

Allow me to assist It was Ministering Angel, and should be nominated for con of the year award too. Looked like nothing more than a "front" for a syndicate trying to gather personal data for onward sale to criminals. They even ripped off their Web design company, let alone any players.
Maybe the award should be named after them


Come on Google indexing, do your duty, Ministering Angel, rip off casino, Ministering angel do not minister to their creditors.

Ministering Angel, better off playing at Palace of Chance in terms of likelihood of getting paid.

They are probably not even around any more, not under THAT name, anyway, - Gold VIP Club perhaps? any connection.

 

[babs7262]

Kinda like calling a church "the devils workshop" LOL

THanks Vinyl, that was driving me crazy

 

[maaster]

don't know the casino but

worst spamcasino - that casino where you get 2400$ free and where the president plays.

 

[RobWin]

I already named it at the bottom of my list...

 

[mysticjoz]

Best Casino 2008 - Inetbet (I don't think they have waivered in reliability or customer service.. it's always been good)
Worse Casino 2008 - 3Dice (posting player stats without the players permission is a big no-no... regardless of how mad the casino manager is at the player... That and "turning off player deposits" NOT at the request of the player, but listing it as "at the request of the player" again because the manager did not agree with the player or was just plain angry at them. Sorry guys IMHO It's very unproffessional... and happened to more than just one player)
Worst Casino Name 2008= Pamper Casino
Most Shocking thread of 2008- "The dirty little secrets behind Palace of Chance" we all knew they were crooked.. but this was a shocker.

Just the beginning of my votes.

 

[vinylweatherman]

I have to disagree with Ladbrokes being a "top" casino. Yet again I have had a missing scratchcard, a blindingly simple issue that has, yet again, dragged on for three days.

Just EMail the sodding thing again, or play it for me & tell me the result - oh no, constant to-ing and fro-ing, excuse after excuse -promising to sort it out, then today telling me that there was nothing wrong after all, and proving it by giving me a copy of my credited scratchcards, which even a FIVE YEAR OLD could spot the missing entry for the 9th December.

This has been a CONSTANT problem with this promotion type, they REFUSE to run it "in house", and INSIST on using this "third party", one that simply CANNOT be communicated with by Ladbrokes CS in any meaningful time period, and have to have the problem thrown back and forward many times before a solution is reached.


All this crap for what is probably a 5 or 10 scratchcard from over 50 lost on the latest hoover from MG, Deck The Hall. 6 DAYS, at 100 spins each, and STILL not one single set of free spins.




PS

WTF just happened with my keyboard

MY " key now gives@, I can't use the symbol for MY currency which now shows as # - US Dollars is $ (so still OK).

Any ideas, the one my Mum has is the same, and she has to remember to use the "wrong" keys all the time.

Mine just WENT "wrong", and if I figure it out, I can fix my Mum's too

[chuchu59]

KK may have done a wee bit of promotion for his site but the advice he gives here is priceless and 100x more important.

Add Hong Kong to the Worst Country for Gambling. Well, the casinos regard Hong Kong as a country. I just had my sportsbook cancelling my HKD account.

 

[jas2587]

lol weee bit at least once a week
an there was 1 day he did it twice in the same day
I agree he gives out good advice but im sure the others
that have their own site could offer just as good an maybe even better advice

it was not a put down

as for Hong Kong i know nothing on that

Check your keyboard language settings. What you're describing are the US English settings - not UK.

Best casino-manager: Enzo
Best casino-representative:Enzo
Best casino promotions: Ladbrokes (but not best CS, huge problem with scratchcard winings)
Best CS: SlotOCash
Best cover-up: INetBet changing bonus T&C and getting away with it...
Best casino-portal: Casinomeister
Best new slot 2008: Tomb Raider - Secret of the Sword (MG)

 

[NextToYou]

I have to disagree with Ladbrokes being a "top" casino. Yet again I have had a missing scratchcard, a blindingly simple issue that has, yet again, dragged on for three days.

I have personally received answers to my questions from CS via email in less than 5 hours every time (care[at]ladbrokes.com). Also I don't recall a single player complaint from Ladbrokes players.


Well, two more awards that came into my mind:

Worst Named Sportsbook (they have a casino too): begawin.com [Beg A Win]. Do I have to beg for my cash outs to be processed too?

Best Overall Customer Support Of All Gambling Sites: PokerStars.

 

[Tengil]

Time of judgement.

Best casino: I only play at a few ones. But if I had to recommend just one casino it would be Intercasino. Good promos, fast cashouts, good software etc.

Worst casino: Simon Says. The level of incompetence on all major fields was quite shocking.

Best CS: 32Red. 3Dice and Club World also have very good CS but what sets 32Red apart is the high quality and speed of e-mail support.

Best Casino Manager: Enzo.

Worst Player Experience: Tusk (the poker skins). Players have not to date seen a dime of their balances. MG doesnt actually come clean out of this. Balances are not going to be paid in full, they are unsecured creditors. Hoping for the best tough.

The Most Annoying Forum Member(s): Those who use this forum to constantly jump on some casinos. Especially a few members and a casino mentioned in this post. Grow up.

And last but not least, Forum Police: The Austrian guy (Mike031, Audioz and all the other nicks he had). Oh those sorry bastards who dared to post a winning screenshot under 100xbet.

Palace group left in the dark here?

It surprises me that no one has nominated Spin Palace as this years top casino. Sure its a well established casino, been going for many years, its not new and doesnt particularly offer anything exciting and amazing in its software above and beyond any of the other mg casinos, however, to me anyway, their customer service has always been spot on, they pay well and on time and their generosity is UNMATCHED.
Out of all the casinos im a member of, Spin palace is the ONLY one to regularly send me 100 % match bonuses, give great christmas, birthday and New year gifts ( for example ive been given a free 100 quid with no WR attached for new year) They have also just given me another free 100 quid (in my bonus account) simply for re sending in my verification documents because they were updating their records!! These are just 2 examples ive had of them over this past year. Can any of you say any of the other mg casinos match this level of generosity? really? and im not a particularly high roller either, im small time compared to some people.
I just find it strange that no one in this whole thread has even mentioned them so im going to.

Number one casino of 2008 Spin Palace as my nomination.

I loved the whole Palace Group till they kicked the USA players to the curb like we all was a piece of trash
