Online Casino Undergoing Maintenance?
Confusion abounds for numerous online casinos gamblers who use the Ascot Sports
gambling Web site. Ascot Sports was founded and owned by Tan Sri Vincent Tan, a
Malaysian businessman who used Ascot as his main entry into the online casinos
gambling industry. The site though was unexpectedly shut down and inaccessible,
causing concern with the site’s online casino gamblers and bettors unable to bet
through their accounts. Also causing concern and frustration was the fact that
the Malaysian news media released speculative reports that Ascot Sports was
shutting down for good.
The Ascot Sports and online casinos gambling portal are relatively new to the
gambling market and was available to players in both English and Chinese
language versions. There is no firm indication at this point whether the site is
truly “temporarily unavailable due to systesm maintenance” as the site states,
or in fact this is the precursor to closing down the online casinos and betting
operations.
The message on the site though elaborates only slightly, noting that Ascots
online casino account holders are fully able to still access their accounts and
make withdrawals. Right now, the only limitations include placing bets and
actually depositing more money into player accounts. The news media’s reports,
along with the inability to make deposits and access the site indicate that
perhaps the speculation is well-founded and the gambling site is closing down
operations.
The Ascot online casino gambling site is licensed out of the Isle of Man, a
respected gambling licensing jurisdiction, and there is every reason to believe
that if the Ascot Sports site is in fact closing, the gambling authorities in
the Isle of Man will monitor the process closely. |
