Zodiac Casino Question

Posted:20.04.2011, 00:07 Zodiac Casino Question

Just found out Zodiac is no longer accepting US deposits. Does anyone know if it's the same for all Microgaming casinos, or why?

ryderstrm, Hi! I have not had one email from a micro telling me that, so maybe it is only the Zodiac group for now.

It seems to be a mass mailing from several different groups - there's a post on another forum about it. Sad

Apparently the US DOJ's seizure of several poker sites has spooked them.

I called Zodiac directly, and they told me they no longer accept US, and that it just happened, but did not say why. I did hear about the DOJ and those poker sites, so that makes sense I guess. Just a drag....Zodiac was my favorite casino. I've had very bad luck at the Rival casinos. Sad

oh...and I checked Casino Rewards, and there is no option for US deposits anymore, so it's likely most Microgaming casinos.

ryderstrm, There are many groups of Microgaming casinos besides that group. The Fortune Lounge group and Villento group have said nothing at this point.

Another day, another change:

From another forum -
Holy crap!! I think I’m going to cry. Or throw up. Look at the chat I just had with Rich Reels / Villento:

Please wait for a site operator to respond.
You are now chatting with ‘Neebashnee’
Neebashnee: Hi
Neebashnee: How may I help you today?
ME: I’m having trouble making a deposit at the casino.
Neebashnee: Unfortunately we have stopped the processing for US deposits at Villento and Rich Reels and you would not longer be able to make a deposit at the casino.
ME: Is this permanent?
Neebashnee: Unfortunately that is the case, if we have any changes in the future we will email our players accordingly, but for now you would no longer be able to deposit or cash out.
Neebashnee: If we have any changes in the future we will email our players accordingly, but for now you would no longer be able to deposit or cash out.
Neebashnee: I do apologize for any inconvenience caused, take care and goodbye.

I know. It's just.. really hard to believe. They're telling people that they are unable to process via their payment processors, but will notify customers as soon as they are able to withdraw.

It sounds very, very bad and I feel SO bad for those with funds tied up in this mess.

Well, after quite a long time I deposited yesterday at Villento. I made two deposits thinking it was Thursday which is when they offer a weekend bonus. When I realized it was only Wednesday I went to live chat. After asking if they could add a bonus I was informed that at this time they are unable to process "withdrawals" from the US. Well, I don't think it's fair that they took my deposits, knowing they can't process a withdrawal!!!!

After expressing this to them, they responded with "sorry for any inconvenience". I know this is the fault of the US, but again, they should not have taken deposits, knowing they couldn't process withdrawals.....

So disheartening!!!!!!

i feel really sorry for you guys..... all these restrictions make it really hard to have some fun with online gambling.....

singapore is even more strict regarding gambling regulations but never interferes with normal legal online casinos.... had the same experience while living in the UK, France and Germany.... although it seems France is getting worse too now....

I hope some sort of legislation is passed soon in the US and everybody can get back to normal online gambling.

I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed Good Luck

Grand Hotel & Vegas slots is not accepting..............I had a 15$ complimentary bonus and i couldn't play so I talked to a live rep & was told that they are working on trying to find a new "Provider" to fix this issue & that they would let me know in 72 hours!!
