Microgaming asleep at the wheel again, or the idea that MGS don't allow drip feed payments of progressives is just another myth like the one where MGS would underwrite players' balances should a licensee go bust.
Well to be fair to MG , this is the only MG casino with this term that i could find out of 200+. But still it is bad, Someone should notify MGS.
The problem is that MGS do not accept communications from players.
It's also evident that there isn't much policing of licensees either, which seems to be left for the licensing jurisdiction, and as far as they are concerned, this would be acceptable as it is stated in the term.
I expect the chances of a progressive being hit at a particular casino are small, so maybe Prime have yet to be in a position to apply this term on a large progressive like Mega Moolah, which is where it could become a PR problem for Microgaming.
5.3.15. An account holder who won a jackpot of more than € 5,000 in the progressive slots within 10 working days of the winnings being verified and then will be paid €5.000 a month until the entire jackpot is paid to the user. The Account holder will cover any withdraw fees related to such winnings and transactions.
So i went through all the Netent casinos i could find to look for similar progressive terms, The good thing is that i did not find a single Netent casino who limits progressive withdrawals.
The bad thing is that i found another MG casino.

Does this rule even apply to (the highly recommended by me) boyle games too? They have playtech slots with progressives and so do betfred they both paid me winnings in super quick time but Boyle is better as they paid me my no deposit win of £83 max from the free £5 chip without any deposit or verification!!

I just got contacted by a Playtech casino to consider advertising them on my sites: Golden Galaxy Casino
As always, checked the terms and found the usual horseshit:
So if someone won Beach Life there today (currently £511K), the casino would take FOUR YEARS and 3 months to pay out, and potentially charge the player £25,550 for the priviledge of letting them keep HIS money in their bank, earning interest for them for that 4 years...
This casino is not on CM's list in the Rogue Pit - please can it be added?

Well with those 3 you should be safe, as they are Accredited here, though being in the USA COULD cause problems and delays. These are two of the conditions of accreditation:I note that this message started last year regarding Playtech and extra large jackpots, but it caused me to wonder about and check the RTG rules regarding this situation, since that is about all we have in USA.
After checking the few I have, I am still wondering,--so perhaps someone could clarify it for me.
(I happen to like to play Jackpot Pinata, and while I don't expect to win----who knows?--strange things do happen from time to time).
Anyway-- both Jackpot Capital and Slotastic state:
19.The maximum payout per customer per week is US$10,000. Slotastic(or Jackpot Capital) reserves the right to pay out higher winnings over a period of several weeks.
Inetbet states that Pana Trans handles the Progressive Jackpots and they pay directly to the customer (unless at their discretion they return it to the players casino account). They don't state what happens to it if that occurs.
It seems that they are all leaving themselves a lot of wiggle room, unless I'm missing something.
What is your opinion?

I don't play progressives much myself anyway, but if I were in the USA and desperately wanted to play them, I would check with EACH casino first to find out what would happen should I win one.Must pay winnings in a timely manner.*
Must pay out progressive jackpot wins in full or in reasonable chunks, regardless of any terms and conditions limiting payouts.**
* US PLAYERS: Please be advised that some casinos that accept US bets have difficulties in sending payments to the US. Play at your own risk.
** Excluding IGT casinos - this is noted within their listing.
and not forgetting the infamous '50% offer' a few years back where the winner was paid half and the other half vanished into the ether, complete theft IMO.
I'm beginning to wonder if Playtech are complicit in 'jackpot abuse'........
Well, since it's been about six months since these casinos were placed in the Not Recommended section at Casinomeister, its pretty obvious that the operators don't care.
So I've upgraded this to a full blown rogue listing:

Unfortunately, no.They belong in the pit.
Did you investigate this about the lost jackpot further:

Are you sure about Bwin?
They are not using Playtech games (AFAIK) and I have not seen any restriction about payouts (at least in the terms in my language).

10.3
You agree that the maximum amount that You may withdraw is twenty thousand US Dollars ($20,000) (or the equivalent amount in EUR or GBP currency) every 30 business days. All amounts larger than twenty thousand US Dollars ($20,000) will be paid every 30 business days until the full withdrawal amount is reached. This condition also applies to winnings of progressive jackpots.
It's going to be interesting to see if and how Netplay react to this. Their two brands being the highest profile TV casinos in the UK right now (jackpot247 and Supercasino) and both being rogued must make Netplay among the highest profile bona fide rogues.
The only higher profile rogue I can think of is Betfair, and Betfair as I recall actively approached CM to see what they had to do to get their rogue status lifted but balked at the fact that Bryan (correctly imo) insisted they make good the money they owed players.
The Netplay situation doesn't involve any financial outlay, only a change of terms, so hopefully they will do what is right and do it soon.
You're right: they no longer have Playtech games, but they still have the rogue term:
