Hi

i've been reading along for a while, until now I never felt I could contribute anything
Playing online already easy 15 years, was previously always active on Casinomeister, and see the site here as a very interesting alternative for the German online gamblers!

Here it is always said that the Curacao casinos are to be avoided across the board, because you have no real way to go through the licensor in case of disputes.
My experience, especially lately, with casinos operated by Direx NV (I think that belongs to Softswiss) but so far was really ausschließlich positivitv. Of course, you always have to make sure that all bonus conditions are meticulously observed. The Curacao casinos know nothing, and take away all the winnings if you bet only once above the MaxBet - but the Malta casinos do the same (an unding as I find).
Well, in any case, the actually always pay super fast and without grumbling, even with higher 4-digit wins.

Sure, really high stakes I would probably also rather place only at the absolutely reputable and large casinos like Videoslots etc. But, to avoid the Curacao casinos across the board makes no sense to me. You just have to look that the respective owners are serious.

Thank you for your contribution. You are of course right and there are certainly reputable Online Casinos with a gambling license in Curacao. With Curacao casinos you have no security and in the worst case you are solely dependent on the goodwill of the casino - even if you have kept to the bonus conditions or even played without a bonus.

In my experience, many Curacao casinos do not pay out if a player wins large amounts with small deposits (regardless of whether the terms and conditions were violated or not). The problem is simply that the regulator never reacts. In 5 years I have never seen a case where an online casino was asked by the regulator to reopen or pay out a player's account.

With casinos in Malta, Gibraltar & Co. you are of course also right that they build stumbling blocks into their bonus conditions (5€ Maxbet rule) and we always denounce that. However, if you as a player play without a bonus or stick to these partly abstruse rules and win big, then you can assume that you will get your win. And if not, then just at the latest with some stress about the regulatory authorities.

There are so many online casinos with licenses from Malta, Gibraltar, Isle of Man, Alderny or UK and you should stick to these licenses as a player. Why take an extra Risk with Curacao casinos?

OK - but how should a normal player distinguish the serious from the unserious ? According to which criteria do you go there ?

Well, research and hope that you are not the first to get in trouble in the word case ...

As already said, there are enough (more than enough) Online Casinos with licenses in UK, Malta, Isle of Man, Gibraltar and Alderny. It is actually madness to take additional risks with Curacao casinos.

Edit: Do not research on purely marketing-oriented websites, but on websites where real users can have their say and where you realize that the users who have their say are also real. In the German-speaking countries there is only one website that offers this. At least only one website that is known. You all know this website for sure

Hi Daniel

sure, you're right - you run the Risk of not getting support from the government agencies in case of emergency. Unnecessary, in some cases.

The answer to the question, why take the risk? For me, definitely the added value of playing at some of these providers. Many have more attractive bonuses. In addition, many casinos also offer Bitcoin as a payment method, although here certainly many MGA-licensed casinos follow suit.
As an example, I would like to bring up the extremely reputable and for incredible betting limits known bookmaker Pinnacle Sports, they also have a Curacao license. I think this has something to do with the low costs and opportunities that this jurisdiction offers. It is just not paid attention to players, but also the licensees are not controlled. This makes the business of Pinnacle really possible.

As I said, I have already won a lot in Curacao casinos with a small Deposit and received my money within a few hours, but you just have to know which casino operators are reputable and which are not - because there is no party that can exert pressure in the event of a dispute.

Hello

I am not really someone who makes sweeping judgments, but with Curacao casinos I like to make an exception! Every time I had problems with a casino, the license was awarded in Curacao! The behavior of many casinos that have received their license there is extremely questionable and certainly not infrequently legally questionable! The casinos licensed there have largely rightly such a bad reputation! And what I think is still the much bigger problem is the regulator itself! I have written several emails to the authority in recent months because a casino refuses a payout! The authority does not even find it worth the effort to respond to my mails! The way the license is issued is problematic in my opinion! The authority does not come if it ignores complaints its task and damages thereby the reputation additionally! In my opinion, one would have to file a class action lawsuit and force the authority in Curacao to comply with their obligations! It can not be that Curacao casinos and the licensing authority Curacao no legal provisions are subject and all offenses have no criminal relevance!

You're funny @Ares1981,

the authorities in Curacao should be forced to comply with the law by means of a class action lawsuit, why should they do so in your opinion?

The fact is that you are playing illegally and you don't give a damn about the German legislation regarding online gambling.

Your islanders of course also know that you play illegally - and they would read your post "class action lawsuit blah blah blah" I'm sure while they are back there roasting their asses in the sun - squandering your money - p**sing themselves even before laughing in their pants.

Even if I'm only one of the few here that addresses this at all, German online gamblers have no rights because it is mainly played illegally - and payouts do not take place because casinos have to pay (they do not have to pay at all), but it's just about the one...to rake in even more money.
That one or the other casino also likes to pay out something goes without saying, knowing that the paid out and much more will come back, but they really do not have to - as I said.

Why should they do that? Because they will be cut off at some point if enough cheated people fight back! Before you come to me with German law regarding illegal gambling, you should perhaps know that I'm not German and also access the gaming platform via no German server! And what I want to do with a lawsuit: to ban corrupt casinos from the market! It can not be that daily here criminal machinations are simply tacitly accepted! I will certainly not put up with it! I know that I will not get my win, but I will not tolerate these criminal offenses tacitly! Greetings Ares

first of all, the authority you are talking about is not an authority that regulates anything

nor does anything else...but more or less a store that issues licenses for money...
this sentence says it all

Antillephone should only be contacted by players when they believe an Оperator is in breach of their license. All disputes with an Оperator about a payout, a blocked account, a delay, broken features and so on, should first be taken up directly with the Оperator. If no resolution is found there are number of independent bodies you can contact, which should be listed on the Оperator website.

exactly which casino are you talking about...that you know will not pay out your winnings?

in my experience casinos with curacao linzens are not generally rogue casinos
i have played in so many casinos with curacao linzens and never had any problems
of course you have to make yourself clear whether and if so how many complaints there are at the
the respective casino...and what those complaints are

if you break the rules it does not matter at all which license the casino is currently holding
