What are your thoughts doggy? Should she have gotten the money?

"As experienced players at online casinos will be aware, using someone else’s bank card is something best to be avoided."
 
In my humble opinion it should not have been paid, not that casinos (not all, you know who you are) need any more excuses :rolleyes:

Even in my early, super naive days when I first set out on this arduous slotting mission, I knew using any payment method not in your own name was a big 'no-no'

Lucky escape and hopefully a lesson learned, however something we will still be reading of in ten years time
 
I think I know who Doggy is! :D
I love being able to tap into peoples writing style, almost to the point I can hear them speak! :laugh:

He only ever writes about 8 words, so it's not easy :p maybe it's the mysterious 'simon wright' whose article was linked :confused: I had a feeling it was Simmo after watching his interview with webzcas a while back

You're right on the "he" part, and he has written in other threads too. People when they type, have little twerks. It can be something like......... at the end of a sentence The Need to " " each word or statement. Put emoticons in the middle of a sentence, instead of the end, etc. Before I was allowed to enter in Broadcast Journalism course, I had to take a summer of Speed Reading, and part of that was to pick out key words, and have a high comprehension rate after reading each article/story. It was really neat, because after doing that, I was able to learn the above. And also how I was able to find out Dan was not Dan :P Doggy knows what I'm talking about :)

Well I would have hoped that her original deposit had never made it through processing and been accepted.
Isn’t it concerning that it is still possible for this to happen?
Account name: miss Donna Keeling
Name on card: mr Dan Lyons
In fairness, Same postcode, but, in my humble opinion, should not be processed.
There was a program on ITV last night about Fraud in the UK basically on faster payments there's no system in place to pick up that the name on the account is actually the account holder.


So obviously these lot use the same system and it's not flagged till the withdrawal is manually processed.

If the lady had her son's express permission then I don't see a problem, maybe she didn't want gambling transactions linked to her own bank account or hadn't got the necessary funds for a deposit herself.

an excerpt from the article
"...Upon further reading it transpires that Donna Keeling, hit the win on an account at Jackpotjoy which was funded by her son’s debit card."

So it sounds like it wasn't a one off deposit but that she'd always used that card, if jackpotjoy wanted to void this transaction where she'd won, then morally they ought to refund all the previous losing deposits or the net balance of losses. [she could be in profit I guess ] And go through all their other customer accounts and check every bank card name against the jackpotjoy account name.

I think they're are a lot of bingo players on that site, I didn't even know they did blackjack or have a live casino. Never had much luck on the gamesys sites myself, I think my foil hat affliction :( started after playing there and on the sister sites [virgin etc..] :laugh:
 
She shouldnt be paid period
I would go nuts if my mom used my card for gambling.
Also i got 3 kids and if i would go broke i should be able to carry on the gambling habit with my kids cards ? No way

So if she said, hey son, if I give you £100 will you pop in in your bank, then let me use it to play bingo and slots as my savings account doesn't have a debit card, then you said, yeah mum, thats fine, you would go nuts with her when she did what you said she could? :confused:

Newshound is an automaton that picks out relevant gambling content from the web. Simon Wright runs the Curacao E-gaming entity and the Latte Machine at HQ. They are both recharged overnight at GMT. Doggy, I dunno.

Thats a diffrent story and i find it hard to belivie she didnt have any card at all
Maybe she didnt have one for the savings account if she didnt then transfer money into an account that has a card
We can turn this inside out but i think the bottom line is either you can use your own card with your name on it and nothing else or not
There are so many horror stories where a family member have bankrupt the whole family
Maybe the kid didnt know but since she won a decent amount of money he plays along because she promises him a big chunk of it
Who knows maybe it is maybe ot isnt :)

I can understand where you're coming from, for the greater good perhaps it's best if it was a black and white situation moving forward and using another person's card [even if close family and with permission] is forbidden.

It does seem everything has to be arranged in the gambling industry on the basis of harm prevention, I'm not sure how common it is but kind of expect it to happen more at granny sites or bingo places for some reason :confused:

I know a few people who only have post office accounts, so its not beyond the realms of possibility for someone not to have their own debit card.
If there are no terms and conditions saying you can't do this (as was stated earlier), then the OP hasn't done anything wrong.
If a casino doesn't want third party deposits then a line in the terms and conditions stating 'Payment must be made from an account in the account holders name' is all thats needed.
 
Jackpot joy are part of the Gamesys group you won't find very many complaints about the place that's because they are a decent group this is yet another case of a punter taking the piss and they did get paid so what's all the drama about?
We all as gamblers know not to be despoiting with other people's bank cards if a punter didn't have a debit card or account that's probably because they either have a CIFAS marker or they are totally pants with money.

Rubbish there are loads of pensioners who don't have a bank account, and they don't have CIFAS markers or bad with money.
Theres no drama, people are discussing it.
 
More I read into this and follow this thread I feel the term Is NOT there on purpose, (IE:extra deposits possible due to reasons mentioned and others) but a useful tool should they decide one day they don't want to pay out a life changing amount maybe?
Someone who thinks outside the box. I like it:thumbsup:.
