You know how it is being at the top of the mob underworld.... tough crowd...

Question for Fat Tony: I see you are from Malta. I filed a complaint on: https://www.playresponsibly.org.mt/complaints.aspx against UnibetPoker. In 3 months I got one mail reply with response something like: we will contact you once when we solve the case. One mail in 3 months, is this normal?

Hi ybold,
Most of the betting sites (not all of them) are under the laws of Malta. You wrote a complaint to Lotteries & Gaming Authority which is a government institution of Malta:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Lotteries and Gaming Authority is a single regulatory body that is responsible for the governance of all gaming activities in Malta including Amusement Machines, Broadcasting Media games, Casinos, Commercial Bingo Halls, Commercial Communication games, the National lottery, Non-Profit games and Remote Gaming.
Since the enactment of the Lotteries and Other Games Act, 2001 the LGA established the following mission statement:
"To regulate competently the various sectors of the lotteries and gaming industry that fall under the Authority by ensuring gaming is fair and transparent to the players, preventing crime, corruption and money laundering and by protecting minor and vulnerable players." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, this is normal. Usually they send you a reply after 6 months. In your case , they replied you too fast! Before answering your complaint, they investigate your case, that is why it so slow.
There are thousands of complaints around the world, that is why their work is very hard.
Wish you good luck with that. By the way this site is used also by players who have addicted gaming problems and are looking for help. And for complaints also.
