The Most Annoying Forum Member(s): are the 1's that dont realize we all have a right to our thoughts an experiences at the casino's also

every 1 will not agree on the same so that is why we have choices

Most Stupid post are: When a person starts a thread an then when every 1 chimes in their thoughts an people don't like what a person says so then they twist the whole post an attack a person that offered their thoughts because they didn't like what that person said

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!

Yep, land of the free! Not only that, but all winnings are officially tax-free!
Please take note U.S.A!
 
My thoughts and experience so far for all the casinos, reps etc:

Worst casino: don't know, but got some on the brink of falling..:rolleyes:

Worst casino rep on responding: don't know, always get a response :D

Most fun game this year:
Happily Ever After, Cashpiller, Rudophs Revenge,Deck the Halls.
 
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.

I shall clarify, they may RESPOND quickly, but often they DO NOT ADDRESS OR SOLVE the issue, and this is what is important. At the end of the second day I asked them to send it to management, who solved it on the SECOND ATTEMPT!
THIS is the big problem with them, many of the problems are quite simple, and should be solved in MINUTES, indeed, most should not happen repeatedly, because after management have apologised and corrected the mistake, how about them LEARNING from it such that it is far less likely to recur. Ladbrokes management seem to find this poor level of service "accceptable", and prefer the use of "fake" apologies and "fire fighting" solutions to actually learning from what is going wrong, and making improvements.
They may well be in line for "best promotions", but at the same time they have the WORST record when it comes to solving even simple issues. Since uninstalling last January after enduring 3 months of this CS crap, I played again this month because I had an offer for those free spins on TR II, and "found" 100 in my account. I checked my transactions, and it seems to have been a adjustment because they "lost" a Neteller transaction some time last year. Pity they couldn't be bothered to actually TELL me at the time, and this 100 had sat there for 9 months. Oddly, I could, NOT simply just withdraw it back out, as "withdrawable" was zero, something I have not even seen with outstanding WR.
My ONLY way out was to play this 100, a sneaky way to get me back again, and an opportunity they have chosen to throw away due to repeating all the same errors as last time.
I would have expected a casino that was getting some part of it's operations wrong to spend some time addressing it and putting it right.

So, Ladbrokes,

Best promotions - OK, agreed,

BUT, also "Head in the sand" award for just ignoring all these CS issues hoping somehow the magic fairy will fix it all.

They would not get worst management though, because there are many rogue casinos out there.
 
LB's poor customer service is the main reason why I am not playing anymore. I liked their promotions but I had a torrid time getting the scratchcards a year or so ago and I was fed up.
 
Best new casino: Slots Oasis and Cherry Red, seems to be managed very well all around and a very active rep here at CM who quickly solves any problems.

Although I am not American, I like the idea that US players can play at such a solid casino.

Worst Customer Service: Absolute Slots (Rival)

Worst Named Casino: Pamper....still makes me smile....win a diaper :)

A great XMAS to all of you!!
 
Best Casino 2008 - Inetbet (I don't think they have waivered in reliability or customer service.. it's always been good):thumbsup:
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. ;)

Wow- I could have posted the above myself- Absolute 100% in agreement with the 'Worst Casino' being 3-Dice. In addition to what's already posted, someone should look into their $50 (one winner only) tornys. Me thinks there is something very VERY dodgy about those.
 
Best new casino group to break into the RTG arena:

I second those nominations!:)

With due respect, while players are entitled to their choice of 3 Dice being the worst casino, it does seem that the 'offences' are all one-off incidents. I can quote a number of casinos that repeatedly rip off players or deliver unprofessional/poor cusotmer service. Just my 2c.
 
Well it's that time of year folks,and i will make a guest appearance to get my choices placed.So without further ado.........

Best player advocate-Bryan and Max from here at casinomeisterland!!

Most cryptid avatars- Peteyweestro

Best recent grad forum poster-Peteyweestro

Best medical field forum poster- Peteyweestro

Most conceited and full of it poster-Peteyweestro

Best group of forum friends in the web- EVERYONE HERE AT CASINOMEISTER:thumbsup:
 
Because i play at only a couple of online casinos, i can only add a little to this thread:

best customer service: slotocash
best under the radar casino: slotocash (they just do things well)
best casino rep: Louise (and i don't even play there!)
best screenshot: nash's progressive hit! (so great to see someone from here get one of those!)

well, there's my two cents... and it's worth about... two cents.:D
 
As Hippo, nowadays I only play a couple of casinos, but these are the only I really trust and can be sure I'll have the money in my MB account the next day to withdraw or less (very important for me..:))

MG: 32Red (by far)

Other: 3Dice (quickest payout and good CS here (Enzo) and chat)

RTG: After closing my account this year on Inetbet, I've tried to include some RTG to my favourites, but after a last try at Slots Oasis this weekend, I couldn't get my 4 deposits last more than 30min :eek:. I still believe there's something strange with this software.

Rival: My vote goes to Slotocash.

Playtech...when I find one I'll let you know...:D

Net Entertainment: Betclick. I've not played enough (only 3 deposits) and the slots aren't my favourites, but I made 2 good hits and made a withdraw. My money was in my MB next day, so a good start

That's all.

Happy holidays all of you :thumbsup:
 
My licks:

Worst casino game: Squirrel Pike; I'd like to think I can hit something decent more frequently than once a decade when I play a slot.

Dumbest casino software providers and operators: Rival - They could have the US players virtually locked-up, but payouts take forever and are limited to scratch, and they keep changing how the games play (is it still possible to get the free spins on 5 reel circus?), to mention just a few of their most dunderheaded moves. And now, sticky bonuses!? What's next, having your docs notarized before they will pay you? Oh, they do that already, too...

Most agonizing online gaming aspect (personally): Living in a state from which MG software does not authorize their operators to accept players. I know it's gone downhill, but MG software is still the king!

Best use of casino "insurance": AIG, who nearly crashed and burned by gambling with derivatives and sub-prime mortgages until they were bailed out by the US treasury.

Best CM poster: vinylweatherman; always polite, and usually with something interesting to add to the topic.

Most annoying CM poster: LOOKAWAY. No offense, but dude, you really ramble ( on and on and on and....)

Unfortunately, that's all States now :(

I think Chuchu's comment, that when voting for the worst casino people should be looking at the big picture and not one-off incidents that are generally fairly small, is spot on. Consistently failing to pay on time, or at all, and that type of thing are more reasonable as the basis for the vote.

There's a line - above it you have casinos that "do the right thing" - they may not be to everyone's tastes but they will pay you, do things the right way. Below the line you have the rogues who knowingly shaft players. Below the line is where the "worst casino" award should be coming from.
 
I wanted to make sure I weighed in here on a few categories before the thread gets closed.

Best Casino of 2008 - 32Red (Once again, no one comes close to them in overall customer service, bonuses, top management and attention to each individual person)

Best Casino Manager of 2008 - Pat Harrison (The man works endlessly, even when on vacation. He is easily accessible to one and all here at all times, and goes out of his way to make sure that each and every player is looked after and happy. There may be others who work as hard as he does, but no one works harder).

Best Casino Available to U.S. Players - 3Dice (This casino offers innovative software, an attentive manager who actually listens to players, instant payouts and a top notch support team).

Best Overall Software - Microgaming

Best CS Rep - Ellen from 3Dice (There are so many worthy candidates here that it's hard to name just one. I could name a few just at 32Red....Jonathan, Susan, both Steves and so on. But Ellen is truly exceptional. She is always professional, knows her job inside out and makes you feel like you are valued. She is simply one of the best CS reps I have ever come across, at any casino).

Best New Game of 2008 - Tie between Deck The Halls (MG) and Industria (3Dice).

Biggest Shocker of The Year - Aoother tie. Inetbet confiscating the winnings of Mario777, when they were clearly in the wrong as far as terms listed for a particular coupon. The casino did eventually make it right, but I'm not sure that would have happened without the pressure from this forum and numerous postings. I just never expected this from them.

The launch of GoWild Casino was (and still is) a total and complete embarrassment to Microgaming in general. I'm actually flabbergasted that it's still ongoing. Some revolution...I wouldn't play at this casino if it were the last casino on earth....ever.

That's it for now....although I may add one or two more later.
 
New Game: Id like to vote for 2 games as well (yes both from 3dice:p)

That new Azteck rocks!! I love it, it came in just under the wire for 2008. It keeps you going for a while and has nicer payouts then some of the other new ones

Industria: This is one of my favorites, Super Suits use to be until this baby came around

Id also like to say that the Wild West game in Rival that came out this year is alot of fun too

For MG: Cashapillar (if thats 2008, not positive)

RTG: WIld Coyote at slots oasis
 
Thanks all!! :thumbsup: The winter lull is about over, and I'm just getting to work on these.

The Awards announcement should be out by the end of next week - stay tuned...:D

How I wish that were true!
I lose a lot - I bust out on probably about half of the bonuses I take.
But the ones I win on generally far outweigh those losses :thumbsup:


To all:-
Now the nominations are over, and guessing that CM wont do a Best Slot Award, I've been right through this thread, picked out all the nominated slots and put the 10 most popular into a poll here:-
