i have had 2 emails now telling me that they have to close my accounts due to the new law.

This sucks, we should have the choice as to whether we keep our accounts or not.
Not the government and from what i read, the new law is not suppose to go into affect until the 30th of this month

InterCasino got me last night. Not sure of the software though.

It's not the players quiting. It's the casinos quiting the players. Cameo closed my account this afternoon.

XXL Club (Playtech) Official Position on the new Law:

We have no intention of stopping any of our US customers.

The bill passed does not make it illegal for you to bet or for us to accept bets, so it will be business as usual.

The vast majority of all deposits processed by our company are processed through non US payment processors. It is currently unclear how these payment processors, based outside the United States, with no assets, presence or employees in the US, would be affected by this bill.

We wish to reassure our members that at this time, XXL Club Casino continues to operate normally and we remain committed to delivering the best quality and state of its class services that our players expect from us.

Please feel free to contact support at any time if you should require assistance regarding any matter.
Kind regards.

Frank Lloyd
CEO, XXL Club Casino

the law does state in the bill passed for americans not to wager real money on the internet, and this will be passed,why do you think all these casino's are closing our accounts as much business we all have done they would'nt do it unless there were good measure for that......

**Moderator**

greg100, That is the opinion of XXL club Casino.
Read the bill and interpret how you wish

Unless of course, you are betting on horse racing.
The horse racing industry spent 3.2 million on the republicans to spare off track betting/online wagering from this bill.

The bill is designed to prevent US people from using their banks and credit cards for online gambling.
Now, I wish someone would take this to court, especially the first time some one walks into a casino in vegas and plops down their credit card for a cash advance. It's the same thing, and it will continue to happen. Without anyone getting upset.

This isn't the land of the free, if freedom of choice is legislated away by the Few to control the Many.

Sorry....I'll leave the Soap Box right here..[..]...if anyone wants to use it...

WOW
THANK GOODNESS FOR CANADIANS.
I WOULD HAVE A SHEAR HEART ATTACK.
what i dont understand is this.....
SATAN RULES THE WORLD NOW, NOT GOD(NOT UNTIL LATER)after armageddon.
since goverments like bush admin are part of satans wild beast system,why does the government care 'bout banning gambling like this ,or using credit cards for this purpose. must be some ashaddy reason for the governments.

cateri,if you can not use credit card and you can not use your bank ,come on think about it ,it's not that hard you can't use neteller or firepay i guess that leaves a western union deposit and then wait for your check in the mail.,.....sorry but we won't be gambling online in the months to come. i have had 32 vegas close my account and here are the rest,intercasino,diamond casino lv grand and vip casino which is rtg casino,then cameo,list goes on so ya,no more gambling after a while sorry...............
