Affiliate Club - Rogue

[Jan]

Glad to report some good news:

AffiliateClub reversed the terms yesterday.

If you look at the T&Cs, the quota has gone: AffiliateClub.com - Help - Terms & Conditions

[Guard Dog]

Yep, the terms alert came through and is in the forums at:

Casino Industry Buzz and Terms Alerts - Affiliate Guard Dog

Also, there is the official terms alert at:

Affiliate Club | Casino Affiliate Programs Terms and Conditions Updates

[TreasureChest]

I have rogued Affiliate Club also.

Affiliate Club Blacklisted

I will provide a link to any site which has also rogued Affiliate Club. I have already linked back to this thread.

If anyone wants a link from my Affiliate Club Rogue page on Online Casino Reviewer and a boost in google to boot, please let me know where your page is and I'll add it to the list.

I created a page for this and others... Online Gambling Blog and Casino Directory - VegasTreasureChest.com so link me up. With some PR juice it might hit google.

Affiliate Club, though, have done the honorable thing and removed all predatory terms and conditions. They listened to us and saw that the terms were not good. I believe they no longer deserve to be on the rogue list (my opinion).

I still reject offers from Affiliate Club to join them because if you want to have credibility in this industry programs with bad ideas never deserve a second chance

I think that is a bit rough.

I have blacklisted Casino Club, Slots Club, Affiliate Club, and the mother ship, Gaming VC.

I am using the Casino Club Rogue page to link out to similar pages. Please feel free to link back and post the URL of your rogue page so I can link to it.

As affiliates, we can't allow ourselves to be blackmailed like this. We CAN and SHOULD burn these businesses to the ground.

Dave, a quote from your page here... Casino Club is Rogue

"Casino Club is no longer blacklisted. This issue was resolved in April 2009 when the company reverted to the original set of terms and conditions. The original article still appears below, but please note that the issue is now completely resolved."

Maybe the affiliate program resolved an issue or two with their T's & C's but the Casino Club Casino that they represent has most certainly not resolved the long, outstanding RealPlayer issue!

For your reading enjoyment Casino Club/Gaming VC...


1. Google Search - Gaming VC rogue

2. Casino Club Avoids Paying Player €167,500!

3. Casino Club Rogue Award

4. Rogue Blacklisted Casinos List / GVC Holdings

Until this outstanding player issue is set straight and 'RealPlayer' is paid up in full, then the whole damn lot of them will stay on The Gurus Rogue List!

That's an ongoing issue that I've been checking in on once in a while. Bryan actually removed Casino Club from the rogue pit today:

Q&A for Casino Club and "Real Player" concerning the confiscations of winnings - Page 23 - Casinomeister's Online Casino and Poker Forum

For now, I plan to leave Casino Club on my sites....

That's an ongoing issue that I've been checking in on once in a while. Bryan actually removed Casino Club from the rogue pit today:

That was a bad move on Bryan's part in my opinion, especially considering that Casino Club has provided him absolutely no evidence whatsoever as to whether the player was a fraud suspect and Casino Club has also not mentioned whether or not they are actually using the "loophole" clause in the law to avoid paying this player.

The ball is in Casino Clubs court to prove with factual evidence, which to this hour they have failed to do.

Do you not realize what kind of precedence this could have and or set for the online gaming market and the so-called gaming regulators (LGA), if this case is allowed to stand as is?

For now, I plan to leave Casino Club on my sites....

That's your prerogative for sure, hope that decision does not bite you later...

Just ashamed though that affiliates will not take the same stance regarding player payouts as they do when affiliates T's & C's are not quite right..

I hope so, too! Returning the favor, I'll say that I hope your promotion of Top Game, multiple questionable Rival casinos, and the Vegas Partner Lounge group doesn't come back to bite you....

VPL has been ripping affiliates off for years; I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole. Why people continue to work with this group is beyond me. I would also be extremely leery of Vegas Affiliates (found them on your Microgaming page).

I do care a lot about how players are treated. That's why I don't promote Top Game and Rival anymore (except for Sloto'Cash). The Casino Club issue is complex and ongoing, and I'd like to see how it plays out before I pull their links and possibly blacklist them (again).
