Blacklisted Sites

I was checking out a list of blacklisted poker and casino sites and came across some disturbing news.

"Pokertropolis is blacklisted because they use poker bots (computerized players run by the house) at their tables. Their management denies this, but anyone who plays there will realize that they are not playing against human opponents. "

Can you believe a poker site is using bots? The site is pretty solid, don't see them making that up. Now while that is one thing... what Joyland Casino did is horrible. I'm just going "Oh My God" throughout.

One poster says, "The problem is that Joyland Casino has changed my transaction history and he has deleted my withdrawal request of 4529 and substituted it for another of only 500 euros (my original deposit), this is the amount that I have received into my neteller account, only 500 of my 4529 withdrawal requested.I have been talking with the casino's support but they have not tell me anything."

Other people have the same complaint. "I have had the same problem with Joyland with my initial deposit made on 8/4. They adjusted my withdraw request of about $1500 down to $500, my deposit amount."

We're talking thousands of dollars stolen from individual accounts. "The total estimated owed to players ranges from $100,000 to half a million."

"I signed up to their casino on the 4th of August and deposited $500 and did receive an $808 signup bonus. I played some video poker (allowed by their terms) and had a very good run, then played blackjack (also allowed) and had some more very good luck. I made some cashouts that night just over ten thousand USD. I also played well over their required wagering for the bonus, and it was removed from my account on cashout.much to my suprise they simply refunded my $500 deposit, and locked out my account. I have not been able to login to the casino since 8/5, and have received minimal support."

Oh my god. 9500 stolen. They won't let you cash out your winnings. They only give you back your deposit. On top of that there are reports that they have altered transaction histories to make it appear as if you didn't actually win anything.

"I did contact the casino CS. They said there was a bug in their system, and so they were voiding all wins for that day. Deposits were being returned instead. Somehow I don't think deposits were returned for people who busted out though."

"Today I received an offer from Joyland to give me $500 to settle the account. Considering I'm missing out on over $10,000, this figure doesn't look nearly as appealing."

What a horrible situation. I can't imagine being one of these players. If anyone wants to check out these devestating accounts, here are a couple links.
