I'm pretty sure MGS pays directly into the player's account and not to the operator (bear in mind some of the information I have is five years old). Net Ent I don't know. But I haven't seen these sort of terms anywhere else but Playtech and Top Gaming.
With the pooled major progressive jackpots, Arabian Nights, Mega Fortune and Hall of Gods Netent pay the funds directly to the operator after verification of the win, then it is up to the operator to organize payment to the player.

Sorry, but I still think that stinks. There is absolutely NO reason under any circumstances that, if paid in one go by the software provider, that the verified player cannot get it in ONE hit.
Either the LGA's should stipulate this or the software provider pays it direct to the player. The PLAYER has won the jackpot, not the bloody casino.
Be honest folks - now many casinos (if you won a 1m+ jackpot) would you trust to pay it all at once in good faith, or stay in business long enough to make say 10-20 instalments?? And I include accredited ones in that.
In reality, you have offshore convenience companies with convoluted trails operating many casinos, even if accredited. I wonder, after receiving 4 million from Playtech, how many would suddenly face 'trading difficulties' or 'takeovers'??

Joyland for one. received over 4 million, paid about half to player, and then had to be rescued via a takeover 6 months later. They had $2 million from Playtech to flatter their reserves, yet the group couldn't survive more than 6 months.

If I recall correctly at least half of the casinos in the list had problems with paying out players. It really is a shame as Playtech games, especially the graphics are great.
Of more significance is the apparent cashflow problems plaguing casinos in this industry. I believe we shall be seeing more of these predatory terms from casinos related with other software in the near future. Needless to say, those at Topgame and Rival will be first and foremost followed by RTG. I may be overworrying a bit but the widely respected MG brand is not what it used to be and some casinos are also starting along the same route. Hopefully Netent doesn't follow suit. So, sooner or later, even non-US players may have no choice other than the '3's ie 3Dice and 32RED.
Am confused - does WH not have this In their t&cs. They are not on the list

William Hill doesn't, but the batch of casinos they purchased from Cpays still has this term. But, I was contacted today by WH stating that that term should not be there and they are in the process of removing it from Joyluck, Nova21, etc. Once it's removed, then those casinos are off of the list.
There should be zero casinos on this list. I'm surprised that Playtech allows this to happen.
BTW - a Top Game list is in the works. So far I've only identified three of their casinos. More here:

This still begs the question of when such a big and reputable business takes over these concerns that they seemed to have forgotten to get their legal team sifting through terms and conditions that may have and seem to have pointed fingers at them?
A new broom should sweep clean but then again new ventures always hit the ground running with a few hiccups, but for me I think they could have done so much better in this respect.

If the amount to be withdrawn is greater than $9,990/£9,990/€9,990/R99,900, the remaining amount will be placed back to the player's account, allowing the player to withdraw additional funds the following month in accordance with this term. The foregoing applies also to Withdrawals of progressive jackpots.

Blathaon I have to give you cred for looking up other playtech casinos and for looking up over 200 MGS casinos.
