iNetbet: theft of winnings and removal from Hundredpercentgambling
iNetbet, the last Real Time Gaming casino to fall from grace. iNetbet will be gone from HundredPercentGambling as soon as I can clean up all relevant pages.
As discussed in the Casinomeister iNetbet winnings confiscation thread, the player in question used a bonus code whose bonus-specific terms were at odds with the general terms, in that they allowed single-line video poker where the general terms did not. The terms can be viewed in the Google cache:
Offers do not apply to Craps, Roulette, Multi-Hand Video Poker, Blackjack/21 variants or Baccarat play
Clearly, no mention of single-line video poker.
The player won $425. iNetbet summarily confiscated this money.
Having done so, the casino then added the single-line video poker exclusion to the bonus-specific terms. This was done after the fact, but they did not pay the player.
Casinomeister backed the casino. I do not.
Casinos that pay players who follow the rules may have a place at HundredPercentGambling.
Casinos that rob players who follow the rules have no place here.
Goodbye, iNetbet. I hope it was worth it for $425.
UPDATE 4th December 2008:
iNetbet has now paid the player his cashout in full.
Having said "iNetbet will be gone from HundredPercentGambling as soon as I can clean up all relevant pages", I realise now that I don't actually list them any more. As such, nothing has to change in that department.
