Just received this:
The purpose of this notice is to advise you that the Board of Directors of Lasseters Corporation Limited has today decided that Lasseters Online Casino will cease operation effective immediately.
Following the announcement to the Australian Stock Exchange on 9 September 2008, the Directors have taken the subsequent decision to cease the operations of Lasseters Online Casino due to our inability to compete and retain our market share since the closure of the US market in October 2006.
It is therefore with sincere regret we wish to inform you, effective 2:45pm on Friday 3rd October 2008; (ACST) you will no longer be able to play at the Lasseters Online Casino website.
It is important to note that whilst you will not be able to play, you will still have access to your Lasseters Online account to withdraw your funds.
To avoid unnecessary delays, please ensure that the personal registration and payment details in your account are up-to-date and accurate.
Your Lasseters balance, minus any unused bonuses is available to you immediately by following the withdrawal procedure on our website. Please note if your account balance is LESS than $, £, € 25 you will need to contact our Customer Support staff – [email protected] to request your withdrawal.
Players who have not previously provided age identification and have an existing cash balance are required to provide suitable age ID prior to withdrawing funds. How do I provide Proof of Age? <http://pull.xmr3.com/p/12955-452293-2235/36492055/pull_02.html>
To meet the closure of business deadlines, please ensure that your withdrawal request is submitted by Friday 24th October 2008.
Further updates will be provided to players during this period.
From all of us here at Lasseters Online this is a very sad day. We hope you have enjoyed the Lasseters Online site as much as we have enjoyed delivering our games / services to you, and would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude for your loyalty over the past 9 years.
We offer you our best wishes and hope you enjoy good luck in the future.

In Andrews absence I thought I would send you the below email (decision) that has just been made today. We are going to send this to players now therefore thought you may want to let your Affiliates know asap.

Anyhow, we will let everyone in the program know and proceed to close down the affiliate program.
Thanks for your support.

October 3, 2008 at 4:28 pm #780920AnonymousInactiveHi Sara,
This is very sad and I’m sorry to see them close their doors after all these years.
I’m sure that you guys are bummed over it as well. Hang in there.October 3, 2008 at 5:30 pm #780932AnonymousInactiveHi Robin,
Thanks for your kind words. It certainly is a sad day.
Aksana, I guess the players will take their cash and go elsewhere.
Cheers,
Sarafina
October 3, 2008 at 6:19 pm #780940weterekovMemberYes… this is too bad and I’m sorry for the players, affiliates and those that worked for Lasseters. After all is said and done, I till have to go through my website and remove all Lasseters banners, reviews and campaigns. (didn’t I just do this last month with AusVegas)
October 3, 2008 at 8:46 pm #780956AnonymousInactivelook, shit happens. who gives a fuck about affiliates, the business shut down! you cant get a cut out of selling cookies if there is no shop to sell ’em.
as for unfortunate circumstances, well, they tend to happen with some aff. programs more than others. although lasseters was the last one i expected to go down. oh well…
October 3, 2008 at 9:10 pm #780961AnonymousInactiveDo lasseters sportbook will also close it’s door?
October 5, 2008 at 8:53 pm #781149AnonymousInactiveCan you redirect our old links to to Jackpot Joy? or another program?
October 6, 2008 at 8:31 pm #781349AnonymousInactiveHi skatemen,
At this point in time, the sportsbook program is still open and we have not been told otherwise. There are lots of events taking place rapidly so once we know more, we will certainly let you know.
AmCam, wish we could. Each program is separate I’m afraid.
Many thanks,
Sarafina
