I had over 5000 accounts with VIP so as you can imagine none of this made me very happy.
VIP basically bought NINE out to destroy the company. As soon as they bought nine out they shut down the best converting brands betcom and mybookie. Nine never converted nearly as well as those 2.
Afterwards they changed the terms and conditions.
And of course at the end they canned the affiliate managers, quit accepting wagers from Canadian players, and quit accepting new customers from the USA.
And they now only pay quarterly.
If anyone is still promoting these properties you need to wake up and remove them. I did receive 1 large quarterly payment from them after the whole fiasco, but I am unsure on if they are still planning on paying.
