    Default Grand Prive Casinos - 48 hr Pending Period

    Another really bad move from Grand Bay and other Grand Prive Casinos....they now require a 48 hour pending period.

    If there is anyhing that will force players away it is extending the time required to get paid!!

    So long as players continue to play, it will be difficult to warn players away and get them to listen, but GP is doing the work themselves. They are forcing diminishing returns here. Sure fewer players will get payouts, but what will be the cost as players get fed up and move on.

    I guarantee it will happen. The owners have gotten greedy, or someone is "geeking up" the money over there. Either way, this whole debacle will come back to bite them in the long run.

    The only players cashing out anything are slot players anyway AS. Is it even a casino without being allowed to play roulette only?

    An active account requires that a player deposits a minimum of $20 per week, and that the deposit is wagered through 20X. (All table games and Video Poker excluded from meeting the wagering requirements).

    You can ALSO keep your account active by depositing $80 and wagering it through 20X at least once a month. Again all table games and Video Poker games are excluded from wagering).

    It is arguably irresponsible operator activity.

    Everything started going haywire when they replaced the manager (can't recall his name) back in 2006(?).

    Previously to that GP were a great outfit.

    Personally after the affiliate BS they pulled I honestly didn't think they could stoop any lower. Obviously I was mistaken on that count.

    Any player in their right mind would have to be plum crazy to keep playing at a place like this, which to me is starting to look more like a rogue clip joint.

    Definitely not what I believe an MG powered casino should represent.


    Cheers
