Hi BonusParadise – and all affiliates,
Thanks for the posting and the heads up on this EcoCard issue. Following is a statement from David Brickman, the JF spokesperson, with an explanation of the email which was sent to players:
David Brickman here, JF spokesperson.
I’d like to clarify the EcoCard issue. EcoCard has informed us – and I’m sure other casinos as well – that they will be pulling out of the US gaming market and replacing their EcoCard payment option with a new option that they will transfer their existing US customers to. Only players who have accumulated $500 or more in gaming transactions will be invited to move to the new payment method.
The email that was sent from the casino was simply meant to be an informative email pre-empting EcoCard’s notification. Once EcoCard makes the change, it will be too late to accumulate activity on an account. As such, we were simply trying to do a service to our players by letting them know in advance.
In regards to the $500 minimum deposits – that is a limit set by EcoCard and not by the Jackpot Factory group. We did not in any way mean to mislead any of our players. If players have accounts at other casinos and have deposited over $500 with EcoCard they will be included in the move to the new payment method. However, there is obviously no way for us to know which players have accounts at other casinos and/or how much they’ve deposited there.
Next week I hope to have more updates regarding EcoCard. Be sure to check my blog at jfspokesman.com frequently – for the latest updates. If anybody has any specific questions, please feel free to contact [email protected] or send me a private message.
All the best,
David
I think David’s statement is fairly self-explanatory.
Regarding the jfspokesman.com blog – you’re welcome to make comments and add links to your sites. But please note – your BrightShare btags will not follow your players, if they click on a casino from the blog. We are getting this fixed and I’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready.
Later,
Marcia
