Withdrawing Account Balances
The Lasseters Online Casino is no longer up and running but internet gamblers
can rest assured that the company will honor all account balances. The site
abruptly closed last week amid rumors and speculation that Lasseters is
suffering from some severe financial losses. Lasseters announced the closure of
another popular gambling site just weeks ago and followed that announcement with
a press statement that noted that the site would remain in operation only until
the end of the week, at which time online casino gamblers can still long on to
withdraw account balances but are no longer able to gamble through the online
casino.
Lasseters noted to the Australian Stock Exchange early in September that the
company was experiencing financial difficulties in the wake of the US’s ban on
foreign online casinos. Two years later Lasseters is forced to close its
gambling site because the company was unable to secure a new market base for the
site.
As for withdrawal procedures however, online casino gamblers are encouraged to
log in to their accounts as soon as they can and follow through the information
provided to close out their accounts. Lasseters will still follow all of the
appropriate protocol for withdrawals which means that any gamblers with
unverified accounts must show appropriate identification before receiving their
account balances.
The press statement included an important deadline for any online casino
gamblers procrastinating as they withdraw their funds. The statement noted that
gamblers must submit their requests for withdrawal by Friday 24th October 2008 –
this is to facilitate the closure of the business and to ensure that the company
can then begin sorting out the finances. |
