Silver Oak Casino Warning

Posted:04.02.2009, 14:03

I was bored one day and found a free chip offer for Silver Oak. Seems they were a part of Virtual but now aren't and want to clean up their rep.
So anyway I played and made the playthru and was able to withdraw the max of $75.

Before you start jumping up and down, I knew they were bad and never expected payment. But anyway, I made the withdrawal on 1/8. Now their website says: (this is copied from their site)

"SilverOakCasino prides itself with prompt payouts. All withdrawal requests will be processed within 4 to 7 business days. Requests must be made through the casino bank. Simply enter the amount you wish to withdraw, select a withdrawal method from the left hand side of the cashier screen, and we will notify you by email when your withdrawal is sent."

My withdrawal was finally approved on 1/28. Now they tell me that they don't know when the money will be sent because "winnings paid to depositing customers take precedent over free chip winnings because they have so many of the free chip winnings".

So this is a warning for any newbies or anyone else thinking about playing at this casino. Don't expect to be paid.

TDTAT, I played there knowing who and what they had been. I didn't lose any of my money.

I just want people to know before they deposit there.

Yeah, I just got an email from Ringmaster Casino with that same code. Why waste my time....

If you redeem it at Cat's Eye, Silver Oak will tell you it's already been redeemed. So, I take it that Ringmaster will tell me the same! It pisses me off that both sites each sent me an email with the same, exact code in each, yet they fail to disclose that if you redeem it at one place, you can not redeem it at any of their sister sites, which should be listed specifically. I wonder how many other sites are in their group?

The only way to hold casinos accountable is to regulate them..
then the scam casinos would be closed and punished.
