Hi Everyone

Just a short note from me to say that unfortunately I have lost all hope that anything will happen with my case. The FACTS are:

I sent GP a support note just over a year ago telling him about my claim. This included the fact that I gambled on a Curacao website (which i believe shouldn't accept UK players anyway) and despite the fact that I requested 50+ times over the course of 6 months that my account be closed/blocked/excluded, they continued to send me promotions and credit my account with small amounts to entice me back. My e-mails and requests were never responded to and I ended up losing £12k ish.

GP asked me for a 5% donation to take on my case but I wasn't willing to pay. Get-Paid kindly invested in my case and GP said that he would engage a lawyer.

I didn't hear anything for a long time after that (4-5 months maybe) which is why i started the thread here. I wanted to try and get things moving. GP e-mailed me after i started the thread and said that if started publishing any of our conversations, he would tell the Lawyer to pull my case.

I did speak to a lawyer for the first time in August 2019, about 8 months after submitting my case. I was asked to sign documents and told to leave it with him. For the first 3-4 weeks my e-mails were responded to and i was informed that the owners of the casino in question had left. But he said he would try and find another way to enforce my case.

When asking the Lawyer for an update, Game Protect replied to him saying: "Jenni published details about the enforcement proceeding on a forum
that lead to Game Protect was getting attacked. Therefore I recommend to not give details about the enforcement proceeding to Jennifer, as there is a high risk that she will publish it."

This is of course not true; i've never given details of my case before now.

Since then, despite chasing, I have heard nothing.

Fortunately, my gambling days are far behind me and i most certainly was not relying or banking on getting any of my money back. I felt it was a long shot from the start. 

But what I will say now, is that Game Protect is terrible to deal with. I had to constantly chase for updates and was continually attacked by him for simply wanting to know what was going on. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

Thank you Get Paid for all your help. I'm sorry we did not win this one and that you have lost out on my behalf.

When I said I wasn’t blaming anyone for being scammed, I meant scammed by the casino in the first place, not Game Protect.

The funder asked me to start a thread on here and I can send you proof of this privately should you wish.

It’s not a lie that I ask you privately by email for an update on my case every 4-5 weeks.

I’d just like to clear a couple of things up here.
As previously pointed out, I didn’t provide the up front payment to Game Protect to proceed with my case. Someone funded this on my behalf. It was that funder who advised me to start this thread all them months ago in the hope that we may get some more updates. I didn’t even know this forum existed before then.
Game Protect does in fact respond to my emails very quickly when I send them. My only small concern was that I would have to chase every 4-5 weeks for an update or I didn’t receive any information.
Not once have I attempted to ‘bad mouth’ or ‘shame’ Game Protect. On the contrary, I was hoping and still hope that I can have a positive conclusion to my case and then can let everyone on here know and perhaps quash any negative opinions.

I have been told that there are other cases in court / being settled but not yet any specific news on my case.

I'm pretty sure i haven't blamed anyone or said it's anyone's fault.

Why don't you contact lawyer, I suppose you got contact info of lawyer which is running your case.

No i don't have any contact detail's for anyone other than Game Protect - and that's just an e-mail address. No name, number, post address at all.

I have kept all the e-mails i have including one from Game Protect confirming they have received the 5% of my claim up front and would start with "legal proceedings". I suppose i will just have to keep on waiting...

Game Protect - Get Paid did not want me to mention them in my thread. Nevertheless, IF you do successfully complete my claim then this comes from my overall amount anyway. So it's still paid from what i am owed.

Like i said in my first post, i am aware that these things don't happen over night, but the only time i have heard from you in 3 months is when i chase - and then i get a short sharp response. I would love to represent a success story for you on this forum and would gladly let everyone on here know if that turns out to be the case.

Game Protect - my ticket number is 171.

For everyone else, the reason i resorted to Game Protect is because the Casino in question never replied to any of my e-mails/complaints for months and months. I then went to their "License Provider" who also just fobbed me off with lies. My Claim total is nearly £13k albeit GP have said they can get me 50-60% of this back. Which is more than the big fat 0 i have managed over the last few months.

However if the comments already appearing on my thread are anything to go by then it could still be a big fat 0! I will keep my thread update if/when anything actually happens but i'm over 3 months in now...

Hi - anyone else using Game Protect to enforce their claim regarding the Curacao license scam? I instructed them over 3 months ago and paid 5% of my claim to them up front but am struggling to get any specific information about the progress. I have to chase them every 3-4 weeks for an update but always get a response which sounds like they're annoyed i'm even chasing... Anyone else having the same issue? I know this isn't something that can be sorted overnight but a courtesy e-mail every couple of weeks to let me know how they're getting on and what the expected timeline is would be appreciated - they have been paid after all.
