blonde & Poker Trillion

[AndrewT]

Having though about it a bit more I could possibly see PL's point about keeping schtum before their $5k freeroll - they might not want to rock the boat until their players have been able to play in it, win some money, and cash out.

Also, full credit to Colin for continuing to try and help players this week, even though he knows he's working for free. I have to say I would have been out the door the first time the wages went missing (once bitten, twice shy with employers going bust).

One presume's also that if they're owed money too they might think that to rock the boat might prejudice their chances of getting paid.

If Col doesn't come on here to try and help, the peanut gallery all chirp "where is trillion when the going gets tough".. when they DO come and answer Q's, the very same gallery start taking the piss and making "hilarious" comments.

as for this:

I would like to think that had another forum been disadvantaged in the way we have, that we would have something to say about it and voice our views to the site involved.

if theres one thing you can g'tee, its that people on here will have someting to say about it.

What a mess...I likeTrillion and play there regular but I simply will not play there again until blonde has been paid what is owed.

Just a quick follow up on withdrawals.......

A credit card proof would not be required for a NETeller withdrawal if the deposit was via NETeller. However, if the deposit was via a card and the withdrawal was via NETeller then it needs to be seen.

Once ELG's new payment platform with 3D security is up and running, then such proofs will not be necessary as the 3D security process double verifies the owner.

What's a peanut gallery?

[Acidmouse]

So its just a matter of time before PT goes busto officially and blonde get screwed. All of a sudden they panic where people are alerted to the fact they owe everyone money? so lame.

I think only Snoopy posts on here.

I've now requested a withdrawal and waiting with crossed fingers. Unfortunately, I guess with it being Friday Evening, there's not a lot of chance of hearing anthing before early next week (even in "ordinary" circumstances)

For the record, my withdrawal has been processed and I can see it in Neteller (with no bureaucracy or problem) - pretty impressive/quick, especially given the circumstances.

Mine came though as well. Though I forgot that I hate Neteller (who want to charge £5 for a £15 withdrawal).

I have not received a wage for 4 months. The reason I am still here is because I wrongly beleived it was 'on it's way' I also love my job and feel a duty of service to the players.

I tendered my resignation to Trillion last week and will be here for the next week.

I have offered to work with ELG in the future and am meeting with them next week to discuss a route forward.

Genuinely gutted for you Colin - it seems that you're probably one of the biggest losers (as an individual) in all this - massive kudos to you for coming in here and facing the hordes. I hope it works out for you, either with ELG or elsewhere

It was I who made the comparison with Tusk, (though I am not a "forum owner", nor indeed even a moderator any more) however with withdrawals continuing to be processed, the comparison doesn't appear valid, and with hindsight I perhaps shouldnt have made such a comparison - apologies if it caused upset. It perhaps says more about Microgaming and their regulation (Gibralter?) than PokerTrillion and ELG.

I'm a member of Punters Lounge. I'm not going to comment on PL's stance, that's a decision made by the Owner and it is for him to defend or not as he so wishes.

What I do want to comment on is Colin of Poker Trillion. I am amazed by your posts Colin. I'm pretty damn certain that 99.9% of poker room employees would slink away and say nothing if they were faced with similar circumstances. You are a man of integrity, sir, and I wish you the very best for the future.

To recognise a man of integrity I think you really have to be one so ColU_FC perhaps you can raise this issue again with PL. Anyone who runs a business has the final say but surely they should listen to their members and run a democratic forum? Why is he so frightened of reasoned debate?

If your employer hasn't paid you in a number of months, and you've got a meeting scheduled with said employer about your future career/monies owed then I would say diplomacy with regard to your employer is probably a +EV strat for you to take. Colin's employers have been linked to this thread so what sense would it make for Colin to be anti-PT within it? I'm not knocking the man cos I don't know him but it's not like he doesn't have a vested interest in being diplomatic. So I would put the PT Mother Theresa award on ice for now.

Don't get me started on Mother Theresa...
