Following J. Todd's condemnation of the Grand Prive Bella Vegas online casino group for cutting off affiliate partners, Gambling911.com has learned that this was not the first time that this organization has fallen under the classification of "rogue casinos".

The Grand Prive Group had previously allowed underaged gamblers to play in their online casino.

Bryan Bailey of the popular CasinoMeister.com website at the time stated:

"The player, who resides in Las Vegas, joined each one of these casinos made deposits and occasionally won here and there. She was never asked for her ID, and the fact that she was only 19 was never an issue. But when she made a larger withdrawal, the casino requested her ID. These are required by the agreement that the casino has with eCOGRA.

"They must ensure that the player is a legitimate person who is lawfully allowed to play. Well, she lives in Nevada, and the gambling age for jurisdiction is 21. So the casino voided her cash-in and returned her deposits. Sounds fair? Well fairness is not the issue here. The issue is a casino's accountability, responsibility, and their relationship with the online casino industry.

"The casino failed to do it's due diligence. They have all of the power within their means to prevent under age gambling. They relied solely on their terms and conditions, and in these times when underage gambling is such a hot topic - this is unacceptable."

Grand Prive is under fire for advising its affiliate partners that they would no longer be paid, yet the casino group remains in business. 

ReferSpots and CPays are two of the bigger affiliates that look to be affected.
