Aussie, you are being rude to Casinobonusguy and for no reason.
Edit...

@Kadabra - I was going to zip my lip BUT seeing you want to try and chastise me for something you know sweet FA about, I'll unzip my lip, and everyone can hear it, now.

A month or two before RA terminated my account, I contacted Judy (casinobonusguy) via a PM at GPWA. We'd both be promoting CR brands for years, and because of that, she seemed like to obvious choice.

Wont divulge those PM's (private messages) because they're private.

However the discussion centred around RA/CR.

Lets just say CasinoBonusGuy seems very friendly with Renee, which is evident at certain forums.

Not long after that PM, I'm advised by GPWA Anthony, that someone had sent them a legal letter, regarding some post I did, and my GPWA membership account is now 'restricted', meaning, every post was vetoed.

DOCH has been reporting on the dodgy and crooked ways of RA/CR since 2011, and I've posted untold posts about their scams against players and affiliates on many forum over the years.

Yet, when I'm about to let the ATO (Australian Tax Office) know that RA/CR/ITSM et al WILL NOT give me these NZ Tax invoices, my account is terminated by RA, using the excuse of negative forum posts.

Even stranger...I'm fingered in the legal letter, but I'm the last to know about it.

When the dust settled, RA/CR were responsible. Do I believe there was a lawyer's letter? NO.

There should be no mystery that Michael and GPWA et al, provide RA/CR with a safe habour.

That fact is evident when Michael reneged, and over-turned the 2011 Private Members Vote, to kick Rewards Affiliates from the GPWA, because they were scamming their affiliates for years. Instead, and to this day, He and his band of minions go out of their way to protect, and still accept dollars from RA/CR.

You can read all about that below. And worse, where RA/CR were busted for lying.

gpwa.org/forum/all-22-casinos-rewards-player-emails-links-cr-website-196308.html

My suspicions weren't even on my radar about CasinoBonusGuy, least not until I asked her to assist NDG. However, instead of answering the call to help (3x), there's silence. Not a peep. Even though she's remained active at these times at the GPWA.

NB - she has publicly claimed to always help where she can. But no help came for NDG, even though she'd continued to be paid my Extreme et al...

In closing, I should listen to my gut and only TRUST the minutely-small number of TRUE friends I have in this industry. Those that know me, know I don't speak BS, and I can't be bought, and I certainly will not sell my soul like most have. Seems most of those who are not on my TRUSTED FRIENDS LIST, are smiling assassins!

A lot more could/can be done to help affiliates, by those who claim to have our best interest at heart. However, most who say this, have a conflict of interest and will never really stick their neck out.

I was earning, on average $10 - 15K per month with RA. I stopped promoting them ages ago, since they refused to prove me NZ Tax invoices. If I was like most others I'd have shut up and said nothing, even though I'd have known they RA/CR/ITSM.Digital et al were scamming players and affiliates.

MY INTEGRITY - HONESTY AND ETHICS are TRUE, are yours???!!!

I ran the AWAA for 14 or so months.

It only accepted ethical programs as sponsors. There was only one (1) sponsorship grade, and that was US$1,000 for year. The AWAA wasn't about making money, it was about protecting affiliates interests.

One program who I worked with (Commission365 - Grand Reef), were sponsor's. They had a banking issue, which caused players and affiliates not to be paid. I gave them 2 weeks to fix it up, going on what they said the problem was. They never fixed it, so I breached them.

Within a couple of days of that, everyone was paid. I reinstated them but they never renewed their sponsorship. Fine... I didn't bend - my word and integrity stated in tact!

GPWA Michael should have stuck to his word and not reneged on that Private Members Vote, and RA should have had their sponsorship revoked. But instead he didn't and continues to protect RA/CR to this day!

When the GPWA actually put its affiliate members first (before Michael owned it) 1,000+ members were logging in each day, and actively taking part in that forum. Michael killed it... Why? Greed!

Same as most other places, dollars come before the welfare of those they've sworn to protect.

Dave , I post on GPWA the payments only . It is none of your business but on January 5 my husband's sister died , my family is going through a lot right now and a few days later I lost one of my best friends suddenly to cancer and If you were a friend of mine you would see on my own facebook I was in the hospital not once but twice since December 30.But you are not my friend and I am not a regular poster on this forum nor do I ever put myself out as a mediator between affiliates and programs.
Yes I actively post on GPWA in the payment threads that is the extent of my forum activity and right now I am sick none of your business what kind of sickness but I have a hard enough time doing my own stuff these days. I came here today as A FRIEND TOLD ME YOU WERE THROWING ME UNDER THE BUS.

Hilarious. Brango closes the player account without notice (or good reason), steals the funds in the account and then continues to spam the account e-mail address with offers to deposit.

Classic clown stuff.

These casinos are still certified at AGD and promoted at AGD owned affiliate sites.
This doesn't motivate me at all to stick around and contribute to this forum. If brands
that screw us over remain certified, then what is the point of actually being here.

@NDG Representatives promised they will update here with the reasons holding up the payment. Has someone contacted you regarding the affiliate account and the reasons that are holding up the payment?
We just contacted the representatives again.

Last message from them was January 16th on Skype where they asked if we could meet at ICE in London. We
did not attend the conference this year. We messaged them a few times since then. They read the messages
that we send on Skype, but they don't respond. Our last message was a link to their brands on our blacklist.

Hi @all,

Please accept my sincere apologies for replying until now:
@casinobonusguy, I am horribly sorry for your losses, and for you having to deal with this thread at this time. Please accept my sincerest condolences… I hope you and your loved ones find ways to deal with everything together.

@NGD: I am happy to see that you are back to it post-corona… It has troubled all of us in one way or another. To clarify: the only thing we are requesting here is to verify your identity before processing your accumulated payments. To make things even simpler, once we do verify your identity, we will pay out any accumulated earnings immediately.
We have not heard anything from you since more than 2 years suddenly after such a long gap, we started hearing from you through skype, which we’ve never used with this account before. It has raised some suspicions – which I would say are well justified. I’m sure you understand that verifying your identity makes sense at this point. Neither you, nor us, nor anyone on this thread would like to see us paying the incorrect person/s.
You’ve also mentioned in this thread that some of your accounts are locked. It’s very important to note that we did not lock these accounts from our side. The accounts were locked due to too many unsuccessful login attempts.
To clarify all these issues, we were hoping to meet you at ICE or any of the conferences – or meet with you on a video call at least. So far, this has not been possible…
I’d love to hear your suggestions on how we can resolve this issue and move forward.

@cindygreco

Thanks for responding to the issue here and offering a way to resolve it now.

Let me start out by saying that, yes we were away for almost 2 years, but we were paid by every single program that
was still running when we returned except for this one. None of them had requested that we verify our identity.

You are correct that all previous communication in the past was most likely done via e-mail with Mikey,
but we were unable to reach anyone at the program via e-mail or Skype when we returned, until we finally
made contact with you. Now, we handle most of the communication with affiliate programs through Skype.

With that said, if verification of the account holders identity is all that is needed, then we
will gladly provide verification for you in the same way that casino players verify their accounts.
We can provide you with a copy of an ID (passport) or even provide a selfie while holding the ID.
This is the current standard for verification of accounts. We can provide this to you on Skype.

I agree that the other accounts were not locked intentionally. We could not regain access to
them, but we requested your assistance with unlocking those account multiplie times over Skype.

Our suggestion would be that we verify the account with an ID or a selfie holding an ID to show that
we are the original account holders per your requirement and then you can pay out our accumulated earnings
immediately as stated. We would then be willing to promote your brands immediately after payment, but
we would need help unlocking the other accounts, so that we can regain access and gather whats needed.

Please confirm that you are ready to accept the ID and a selfie with ID to verify ownership of accounts so that we can have our
accumulated earnings paid immediately. Once confirmation is made, we will send the ID documents to your Skype account. Thanks.

No. We haven't heard anything from them. After Cindy's previous message, we had hoped that they would
follow through on this. We are ready to provide an ID, so they can verifiy the account and proceed with payment.

These cowboys continue to spam me relentlessly (almost daily), promoting their crappy casinos - always sent from the same fake e-mail address that bounces when you try to reply to it - and always sent with NO UNSUBCRIBE OPTION.

Starting to get pissed off with these idiots.
