Is is possible to start a class action lawsuit against thic casino? This same casino stole $8200 in winnings from my account. I have complete documentation and support with all emails and screenshots. I’ve posted my story on many internet websites and I’ll gladly do it here if it helps in any way.

It seems this casino is one of the worst on the internet and nobody will touch them. Sure wish I did more research before depositing there.

Any thoughts out there?

HI Devon I just went back onto the main page and found out that you are the Editor In Chief. I’m sorry, I did not know that. I’m new at this. I wasted a whole year with a lawyer who in the end, WAS NOT able to help me. I am so glad I stumbled upon your site. I am hoping that in some way you will be able to help me. If you need any other information, I will give it to you. Please help Thanks, Joanneb jbilicki1031@aol.com

THANK YOU so much for looking into this matter regarding Gold VIP Club for me. I submitted the form to IBAS and they advised me that they cannot help me because the casino IS NOT registered. I don’t know where else to turn. If there is any way you can help me, I would forever be grateful. If there is any information you need, or any documentation, I have it all. PLEASE get back to me ASAP. I will be waiting for your response.

I’m assuming you have already made a dispute claim with Real Time Gaming Software’s Central Disputes: http://www.centraldisputesystem.com/form.asp?casinoID=246 If not, please do. Online Casino Suite is not IBAS, although it’s worth a shot to go through IBAS. The best we can do right now is to contact Gold VIP and and begin a discourse with them. They are not listed in our directory, but we will nonetheless look into it.

IBAS I need help. I won $73,000 playing at Gold VIP Casino in the UK {British Virgin Islands. This occured lat Aug. 2009. They started paying me by wire transfer to my bank account $2000 approx. every 2 weeks. They paid me $8000. Then Dawn from accounting calls me and tells me there was a charge back on my account. I asked her what she meant. She told me that 2 deposits I made totaling $150 did not go through. She then tells me the deposits showed up as websupport and visona bill on my credit card. I then realized what she was talking about. Someone was using my credit cards and I disputed the charges. I then looked over my statements and I did no recognize websupport and visona bill as being Gold VIP Club so I also disputed those charges. I explained this to Dawn. She told me to call the credit card and fix it. I told her I would give her my debit card and she could take the money immediately. She said it wasn’t necessary, to just straighten it out with the credit card. I immediately called the credit card and told them that the 2 charges were valid and to make sue the casino was paid. They said they would take care of it immediately. I called Dawn back and told her it was taken care of and she said everything was OK. I asked her if I would have a problem because of this and she told me NO. Well a few days later I received my next $2000 wire transfer. I figured all was OK. Then 2 weeks later when it was time for my next wire transfer, I did not receive it. I went on the computer to check on it and I was shut out. It said to contact casino support. I did so and got Dawn on the phone and she tells me they decided to close out my accont and I would no longer be paid. I was very upset as I need the money desperately. I asked her what could I do. She said i had to speak to Phillip Mousset, who is in charge. He is very hard to get. She knew I was upset so about 2 hrs. later Phillip calls me. I explained to him how it was a mistake and how someone was charging on my card. I did not recognize the 2 charges as being that of Gold VIP casino. I explained to him that why would I dispute the charges after I just won $73,000. He said he would get back to me. Well I never heard from him again. First, he told me to send him all documentation showing him what happened. I did just that immediately. I also called my credit card company numerous times, and every person I spoke to advised me that the casino was paid. The $150 was NEVER retuned to me as a credit on my card. They were defintely paid. I emailed Phillip at Phillip@goldvipclub.com and told him that they were paid. No chargebacks ever occued. How could you close me out. He never responded. I send him hundreds of emails daily. I even called and could not get past the people who answer the phones. No one could help me. I was devastated. The holidays were coming and I was counting on the money. I couldn’t believe this happened to me. By Jan. 2010 I retained a lawyer out of NY. Sheldon Roth Bell. He got all my information, and was supposed to help me. He told me it was going to be hard because they are over the UK and we are here. But he agreed to try. It took him until Aug. 2010 to finally send them a letter. He was able to get a contact address. They are called Ilforno Management, Ltd. , Nerine Chambers, P.O. Box 905, Road Town, Tortola, BVI. My lawyer wrote to them to persuade them to send the balance of $60,000 to his office by certified mail by Sept. 1st to avoid the expense of litigation, attorneys fees, punitive damages and potential criminal penalties. Also advised them of possibility of adverse publicity and engagement of fraudulent behavior as a rogue casino. The DID NOT respond. My attorney said there is nothing further that he could do, and advised me to get in touch with the district attorney who might be able to put pressure on them to pay. I tried this and was switched all over the place. Finally i was told I had to file a complaint with the FBI website. I did this about 2 weeks ago. No response as of yet. I have all documentation for this matter. I NEED HELP> Is there anything at all you can do to help me. Please advise ASAP My name is Joanne Bilicki. My email is jbilicki1031@aol.com My phone # is 201-456-8375. Please, if there is anything you can do to help me I would forever be grateful. Please get back to me ASAP

Eddie S. Why did you leave a link to CasinoTitan if you are against them? Are you promoting them with the “no press is bad press” concept?

I agree with nowhentofold. There are TWO supposedly NEW but I would bet my life they are just re-branded casinos that were BLACKLISTED, as are almost ALL RTG casinos are these days. I caution ALL unsuspecting players to Totally AVOID these two newly advertised casinos by Casinomeister, as he will endorse anyone who pays him. The fact is that these BRAND new casinos Casino Titan And LOCK Casino have NO licenses nor are legit in any shape form or fashion. SATY away from these two casinos at ALL COSTS!! That is if you want to hang onto your hard earned cash!

Yet another RTG Rip-Off fraudulant casino maybe NEW OR rebranded but with the same old tricks and EXTORTION attempts. Hey the On-line casino business is DEAD and RTG, especially, since they still accept US players, primarily so they can CHAET them and get away with you. Thus, I IMPLORE you curious players to STAY AWAY from ALL RTG sites and ANY on-line casinos NOWADAYS. there are enough landbased casinos scattered ALL across the US and that are totally regulated and have a REAL CCC in palce to protect BOTH the player and the casino.

Dear, Debbie, I read your situation and question from Jan 24 AM. You made $10k great! The chances are that you can find the same machine in plenty of other places. I don’t see where one would have a problem finding other descent RTG casinos.(assuming you’re from US?) A lot of times their posted percentages are just cycles of luck…. The machines may be exactly the same yet have results different however. Luck of the Draw. There is enough intuition and procedure where you are just a professional player at what you do. What I’m saying is that I believe you could go anywhere and do the same things, one thing people won’t buy, yet I do is that one needs to be in the same mood and as comfortable as possible, as you can make it and you can repeat..
I recommend that you get familiar with procedures and just make things the same as before. Take over that next casino! It’s yours if you can win like that. Keep that attitude I know you will do it again if you already haven’t.
They don’t want one person to win because they have to pay you. They don’t really want to pay people unless it advertises. Remember mobsters used to run casinos, what is so different now? They’re not social workers, I’ll tell you that.
Now I’ve tried to answer your question, maybe you can help me on my question? I have gone around playing NDF bonuses throughout the last week and found a few niches, and at the time I have a $42 and also a $90 matured amounts after sticky that would be mine if I could just get them out! Part of the situation is, I am unemployed right now, I make a few bucks online here and there, and like most people trying to make ends meet, taking fifty dollars from my checking and putting it into the hands of e-wallet and a casino seems out of question! If there’s anything that sounds like a scam that does, and if there’s someone who would be hurt by getting screwed that would be me. The point is all I want to do at the time is withdraw from those two places as quickly and express that I can find and go from there. They want me to withdraw $50 from my checking and deposit it into the casino to have an ewallet account!! It makes me feel like reaching through the bytes and electrons and doing the Homer/Bart strangle! E-style! What do I do? What can I do? How long does the money sit there? Until tax returns. Next Christmas. Also that is two casinos that I can’t really use right now that work for me. Please let me know what you think. I have an amount of respect for people that can figure things out about casinos as I have at least some experience. I want to know what you think Debbie Katz. Thank You! You can mail me, I don’t mind or whatever. Jeffrey Heckman jeffpheck@gmail.com thanks again..
