Never give up!

[Deanna]

I've had the worst weekend playing. Deposit after deposit gone...I decided that's enough and cashed out my last big $1.07 in comps. Went to Aztecs treasure and my first .20 spin hit 4 scatters, total win $109. I played around a while, went to Triple Twister and hit the feature for $500. Unreal. Ok, I admit I played some back but I did cash out $300. Not the best cashout but seeing as how it was on $1.07 comps, I'm NOT COMPLAINING! You just never ever know, do you?

I get that. Often I find myself scratching my head after losing deposit after deposit and make me question why the hell we do it. Then out of nowhere you get a miniscule amount from a casino, hit a good bonus round somewhere early and next thing you know you've got a balance of a few hundred.

Probably the best part of gambling for me and definitely the most satisfying, procuring a sizeable sum from dust.

Congratulations on your escapades by the way!

A very valid point. I've seen a lot of people across various forums deciding to take a break from slots due to a bad run but it's like anything in life, the good times come back around eventually. You've just got to ride through the hard times and things will turn around. Every win is a win as they say!

Dep question

The last 2 times I've deposited at a CWC casino, my bank has called with a 'fraud alert'. I'm absolutely sure it has nothing to do with it being part of the CWC group....only that it is a questionable international transaction. The bank has left me alone for the last year, and all of a sudden I have their attention - deposits are never over $25.

I think we've all had this discussion before, however.....is there a pre-paid that any of you are able to use (not linked to your bank account) for online gambling transactions? The pre-paid vouchers I've never used, but aren't they also international transactions? I only ever play RTG casinos, and for the past 6 months, only the CWC group. I'd really miss my bit of entertainment with this group, but certainly don't want to put my bank account in the limelight for any reason.

Suggestions?

Thanks
Tillis

do you mean vouchers like UKASH or Paysafecard? They are anonymous.

 

[klauskunterbunt]

The same happened to me

Deposit after deposit and nothing. I looked around for a good Bonus and found 5 Euro in my Spin Palace Account.
I played between 30 and 60 cent, went up to 90 cent and got this:

The PasteandPay Vouchers?

 

[Journeyman]

No idea what PasteandPay is.

But I use Paysafecards and UKASH cards to deposit online at Pokerrooms and Casinos.
If you don´t know these and this is what you are looking for I can explain you how.

I don't think these are available in the US ;( It would be great if we had some new options come around.

Paste and pay is available in the US, I have occasionally used it.

You can buy UKASH or Paysafecard vouchers for whatever amount you want. You get a code which you can use in almost every casino to deposit. Very easy and also available online.

Does it show on your bank statement/credit card statement as an international transaction? That is what I'm trying to avoid. I think there are no options left out there for the US that offer anything in-country for deposits. Thought they used to have an international pre-paid VISA that was good in the casinos, but I haven't been able to find those either.

I'll keep searching and see what I find.

Pasteandpay is available at CWG. It is called EZVoucher. You have the option of purchasing a voucher with your bank card at Pasteandpay or as many do set up an account with a prepaid card service like netspend. Your bank is less likely to question your deposits to netspend than they are to direct voucher purchases with Pasteandpay.

I was done . . until I read this thread

I've had the worst weekend playing. Deposit after deposit gone...I decided that's enough and cashed out my last big $1.07 in comps. Went to Aztecs treasure and my first .20 spin hit 4 scatters, total win $109. I played around a while, went to Triple Twister and hit the feature for $500. Unreal. Ok, I admit I played some back but I did cash out $300. Not the best cashout but seeing as how it was on $1.07 comps, I'm NOT COMPLAINING! You just never ever know, do you?

Here is the situation:

This past month has been bad, really bad. Out of money and out of bonuses, I did have 55 cents left in my account. Let me preface by saying that I did receive a 15 dollar bonus that I lost in about two minutes. So I was DONE. Then I read this thread and played video poker three hands at 5 cents a hand. I was down to my last 18 cents so changed the bet to one cent and hit a nice hand. I won two dollars. Played blackjack at 1 dollar a hand until I had 5 dollars. Played three card poker and won 72 dollars. Went to my favorite slot and on the second spin won 438.00!! I now have 505.36!!

My question: I checked my balance and saw the 55 cents, no bonus playthrough amount, in fact, no comps either, so I had used all of that as well. . . does anyone think that I can only request 150 dollars because of the bonus that was lost? I think I will have a stroke and fall over dead if this is the case. Any thoughts?

UPDATE, It appeared that I was using my comp points, so I am not limited to a 150 dollar cash out. What a ride!! Thanks Lucky Red and Karolina, I am "over the moon"!!

Now that's what I'm talking about!

Truly outstanding play!!

So, if I buy a Walmart prepaid card (visa or MC), then I could purchase the EZvouchers because they are NOT international transactions, correct? This sounds good

no, those wont work, netspend works, but not prepaid visa or mc that you can get at wallmart, on the back of those cards it will say no international transaction, and paste and pay is international. my netspend works, all my credit cards work, and sometimes my debit/credit card that is attached to my bank account.

My PB is finding 0.08p in my Quicksilver account (now Dr Vegas) and after starting on 2 x 4p spins (reduced lines on 9-liner) won few pence, played Bar-X at 6p spins, built to £5 then went onto Cleopatra which just would not stop giving bonus rounds - Cashed out and received over £500 - Long time ago and sure ain't gonna mention my personal worst either

Also used to make a fortune most weekends from the Ladbrokes 'Reel Em In' promotion, back in the day when they were a proper casino before this Mickey Mouse Playtech rubbish took over!!!
