    Default Heads up all Fortune Lounge Casinos being closed March 31

    My husband is a player and he just got this a few minutes ago. He sent a message asking what will occur after April 4 when Ontario goes Legal next week .

    Hi Dean
    This is Lana from Vegas Palms Casino. I hope you are doing well.

    Thank you for allowing us the time to review the account. On the 31/03/22 all accounts registered with Fortune Lounge will be closed.
    You will be redirected to Jackpot City Casino. You would access the casino using your log in details for your Vegas Palms account.
    Should you have a balance in your Vegas Palms account that would be transferred to your Jackpot City account.

    Guess what we will be doing all this week...Pulling all the casinos .As usual they never tell the affiliate community anything.

    There was no announcement The host told my husband but today the affiliate manager said not to worry they are staying open just won't take Canadian players .Jackpot city is where they are pushing Ontario Players after March 31 .I experienced same stuff with Australia and UK , Our players shared emails that they were leaving but the affiliate group denied it then 2-3 months later they left always on a Friday and never giving us much notice lol .
    BTW I was asked today by Buffalo Partners to edit my post after somebody here shared the screenshot .They say they are closing the Fortune Brands to Ontario ONLY not Canada .So looks like the staff on Player side did not understand and gave wrong info ,too late we already removed them from the Canadian market lol

    Appears so but I am still remembering another post about their exit to Australia or UK ,they denied that too then 3 months later left with very little warning .Ontario is 40% of Canada's population so either way it is a big share. I can see the other provinces wanting to get a piece of this pie and going this route too.

    Yes, other provinces probably will. I know Playnow was asking players if they played at other online casinos in surveys last yr.

    As players we will stick to 888 for now as that the one we see as having a license ,We will not play at any unregulated ones living and working in Ontario. You cannot go wrong pushing Jackpotcity as that seems to be the one they are moving the Ontario players too. We may see other provinces moving this way in future .
