OK, I will go out on a limb this time, and for what I feel is a very good reason.

As you all are aware, Cocoa Casino and Paradise 8 voided all of TAADAAs winnings through a minor oversight on his part, but they refused to pay what he rightfully won and should have paid.

They are now offeirng a free contest and I am asking you to post that you will NOT participate in the contest due to what they did to TAAADAAA.

I am not going to think worse of you if you do try it, but I think if we really want to start letting casinos know that we are unhappy and disagree with what they did previously, this may get their attention.

Let me also say I DO appreciate all the offerings that this website can offer including contests. I also appreciate the work others do also. But there comes a time when you have to stand up and say "No, this is not right" and I am thinking that the time is now.

Let us stand together this time.

I've just looked at the T & C's for P8 which will be the same for the others.

"Winnings can and will be void if the winning player's account is linked to another account which has unrecovered chargebacks."

By "unrecovered chargebacks" I would say they mean if the chargebacks are not paid...which they were in your case Taaadaaa?

I have brought this thread to the attention of the rep.

Can either a mod or Taaadaaa please fill me in on what happened here and also, Taaadaaa can you contact me personally about it as well? This is the first I've heard of this unless I'm missing something.

Please keep something in mind though, and this is important.

We take chargebacks extremely seriously. If players feel that they should unite together against situations like this, trust me, casinos feel even STRONGER that we should unite against players who charge back intentionally in any way shape or form.

Aside from the fact that intentionally charging back is blatant stealing, Chargebacks are THE single biggest reason casinos keep losing their US credit card processing solutions which ends up costing tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars every time it happens. Please, at the very least understand why casinos, ours included, take charge backs so seriously.

That said, I don't know the situation here at all and I know that TaaaDaaa has been a good player in the past so I can only assume that whatever happened here was a mistake. If he'll contact me about it I'll look into what happened and try to resolve it.

Hi Jason,

You can read about it here.  

Thank you Jason.

Dumb question but here goes anyway.....

What's a chargeback?!?  :-\

Thanks Blue!

Nothing at all against Taaa... but if someone does a chargeback, I can see why casinos would not be happy.

So... If I deposited $25 at a casino and lost, I could tell the bank I didn't authorize the deposit and get my money back? 

For the life of me, I can't see how I would ever be able to play/claim a win in the future if I did that.

Must be missing something in regards to Taa's situation. Hope he gets the payment due as it appears he is a valued customer per the rep.

That's about it gabby.

Knowing Taaadaaa as I do, I know for a fact that he would never intentionally do a chargeback.  That's definitely not his style.  An unfortunate oversight.
