Hey Everyone!
As reported on Gambling911.com-
I just spoke with VIP and they are not accepting US and Canadian Players. It was decided upon this morning.

We have received confirmation plus have spoken with Mario!
Yeah, and you can kiss your revenues goodbye, because the T&Cs say that if you don’t bring new players you don’t get paid for the old ones.
hey Dom don’t jump the gun here. There is enough turmoil without stirring up the pot. Lets see what unfolds in the next couple of months. They stated that policy of not bringing in new players is not an automatic thing and they look at it on a case by case basis.
Lets try to ride this out,
Brian
I wish them the best of luck and hope they can make this work. I was REALLY looking forward to having the Nine.com girls at CAP Spring Break in Atlantis this June.
All right, benefit of the doubt…..
yeah

Important VIP Profits Affiliate Service AnnouncementDear All,
As you are probably aware, recent changes in the e-commerce landscape have caused many online companies, like our merchants, to adapt their offerings in this fast paced industry.
As one of our preferred partners, I wanted to update you about recent changes with our merchants.
US Customers
Effective immediately, all VIP Profits merchants will no longer accept new customers from the United States. Long standing premium customers have contributed to our success over the years, and we intend to increase our service commitment to them – exclusive focus on preferred customers.Canadian Customers
VIP Profits merchants will no longer accept deposits from Canadian players effective immediately. Canadian customers will maintain access to their account until April 1, 2007. Any current balance in the account may continue to be used until that date, at which point any remaining funds will be refunded to the player and their account will be closed.Payments
As a result of recent events, our merchants are being forced to deal with new, less experienced payment processors with less advanced systems in place. As a result, data regarding charge backs and returns is not being received in a timely manner. These events have caused a delay in processing your commission payments for January. I am happy to let you know that these payments have now been approved and are with our finance team to be sent to you. You will be receiving these payments over the next 10 business days, depending upon the method you have chosen. At this time, we are planning to begin clearing commission payments for February on Monday, March 12th.Increased Charge Back Rates
The international banking environment is fast changing, and merchants are experiencing increasing charge back and return rates. Affiliates should be aware of this as you monitor client activity moving forward.Our merchants continue to be global leaders in online gaming, and look forward to working with you to recruit new clients outside of North America in the future.
Kind Regards,
The VIP Profits Team
Promoted them on my best pages for 4 years and I don’t even get the consideration of an email or a message when logging in to my stats page. Real nice. Thanks for the consideration.
I guess this includes nine.com as well? Simon? Marty?

a.o. because of payment difficulties with Western Union and credit cards

Ontslagen bij gokbedrijf door online gokverbodDinsdag 27 februari 2007, 10:06 – De Amerikaanse wet die gokken via internet verbiedt, blijft niet zonder gevolgen voor de gokbedrijven. Een bedrijf op Curaçao ontslaat 41 procent van zijn personeel.
Door Edwin FeldmannHet bedrijf Vip Management Services onderhoudt de site Vip.com waar internetters kunnen gokken op onder meer sportuitslagen. Bij het bedrijf worden 84 van de 204 banen geschrapt, zo meldt de Antilliaanse krant Amigoe.
Volgens directeur Alistair Assheton van Vip Management Services zijn er allerlei redenen om te bezuinigen. Eén van die redenen is de nieuwe wetgeving die de regering Bush heeft aangenomen tegen gokken op internet en het wedden op sportuitslagen.
Doordat buitenlandse betalingen via creditcard en Western Union bijna onmogelijk zijn geworden, loopt het bedrijf een groot deel van de inkomsten mis.
Het overtollige personeel krijgt twee maanden opzegtermijn doorbetaald, plus de vakantiedagen en een week loon per dienstjaar.
Wow, 41% of the personell was let go!
