Not to oversimplify matters but...

The REAL problem in this instance, and the reason we even need a Casinomeister, is because far too many of these operators (and I don't care if they're using Playtech, RTG, Microgaming, Boss Media, or any other software supplier) LOOK for reasons NOT TO PAY the player!

It's now reached the point of absurdity, but these T&C's are clearly designed to confuse,frustrate, and ultimately sabotage online casino patrons so that the CASINO always has a fallback position in the event they ELECT not to pay winnings - even after accepting deposits.

While the brick and mortar land based operations certainly have their share of issues to deal with, the online gambling world has further deteriorated into the level of pure farce.

For instance: why even offer such "lucrative" bonus offers that have so many inbred stipulations? Wouldn't it be easier (if you the online operators REALLY intended to PAY folks when they win...) to mirror the comp structure at Vegas and Atlantic City casinos? You know the drill.....a reasonable sign up bonus, and then straightforward bonus $$ based strictly on the level of play. But that would mean no tricky T&C's to fall back on - right?

And this whole BS about currency rules...C'mon...When I go to Canada to play (I am a US citizen..) I simply change my American dollars to Canadian. The online casinos could easily facilitate currency exchange parameters - if of course they REALLY wanted to. Again, this gives them another lame excuse in which to screw the player.

Finally, if I weren't impacted myself, their "customer service" chop shops are beyond laughable. I can only imagine having a problem or concern with the MGM or Bally's in Vegas and having one of their customer service reps belittle, insult, threaten, and then, ignore me after I raised an issue. BUT in the wonderful world of online gambling.... that is the NORM!!

And then when YOU THE PLAYER ARE SCREWED....you have to unfortunately rely on a third party (eCogra, Kahniwake, our ery own Casinomeister) to "mediate" the dispute....a dispute which nine times out of ten (other than player cheating/fraud issues) was MANUFACTURED by the CASINO to make sure you don't get paid!

The ast majority of online sites aim to hook inveterate gamblers who need their "fix" - and are unwilling or unable to either stop, or seek alternative LEGITIMATE gambling outlets. They make millions of dollars by preying upon a relatively small percentage of online junkies (believe me, I too was one of them...)

During this Christmas season, tell these online scam artists to take a hike - permanently. Stop supporting an industry that even makes the era of Al Capone run speakeasy's look legitimate.

And for those of you still in the midst of trying to get your winnings and/or deposits back from these below board opportunists - keep up the fight!

I know that MANY more influential folks worldwide - like you and me - are sick and tired of all this subterfuge, and the operators hiding behind bogus dispute forums, slick legalese, and the inability to be tried in an international court system.

The ast majority of RTG , Playtech, and countless other "software providers" to this industry have grown obscenely wealthy by being able to rip us off - and hide in the shadows. I have a feeling 2007 will finally usher in some major changes.
