Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue Just checked out their T&C ..... seems it's something they plan for from the beginning 9. Upon membership, new members may be offered complimentary accounts with the club’s preferred online poker room, casino and sports book, which can be used at the members' descretion. Not that that makes it right!!!

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue

i dont know what to do short of going to the police regarding them using my details to sign me up without my knowledge.
Morl, its hardly a criminal issue is it? How does them opening a poker account in your name in anyway affect you? If in fact their T&Cs of the form you should have signed to become a member offer you the chance to become a member of the poker room which is loaded up on the terminals upstairs in the club. Seems like they are just leading you to use it, and its not as if they have got your credit card details and deposited money is it? Shred the account details from Webdollar and forget about it.

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue Yeah thats what I thought Legend though I thought I might be missing something because of the discontent. You been to the club then aLegend s you know about the terminals upstairs? Thats a point actually, they have lots of computers with internet that you can play on in the club by yourself and alongside friends, you would need to use the software that they signed you up in to utilise that im guessing.

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue thats the application form, i always make sure i say no to marketting or otherwise(the last question), the fact that they have just ignored my choice pees me off, then they sign me up to an online gaming site without my knowledge or permission, thats annoying and so are the txts at 2am too

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue Graeme, I'm not sure if you remember me - my name is Ashleigh and I am one of the managers at BiG SLiCK. One of the support team have already emailed you back from the previous mail you sent us, and although it seems you have posted on the Hendon Mob site as well, I will only reply on this one. As other people have commented, I don't really think it is a matter for hte police or the gaming commision as you threatened in the email we received. As our support staff said, your King Solomon account has been deactivated and your membership to our club cancelled as per your request. I would like to make it clear to other forum users that although we do sign our members up to KS (which is made clear from the get-go) and therefore WebDollar, NONE of your credit card details are on there (obviously!) so there is no kind of fraudlent activity going on at the club! We opened BiG SLiCK as a place for people to come and play live and online poker, which Graeme and his friends all enjoyed very recently. It is a shame that one incident will now stop him from playing here as from what I gathered, they all enjoyed themselves. As for receving 'obtrusive text messages at 2am', I have never received any complaints before as most of our members are either up playing poker, or have their phones off. I will apologise once more Graeme for any harm BiG SLiCK appears to have caused you and I hope this is now the last we hear of any problems experienced. Ashleigh Ace

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue Cheers for the reply Ashleigh, your right its not a matter for the police, that was a daft thing to say as i was very angry last night, but as someone used that in a quote i couldnt change it after. Part 9 of your own terms and conditions states : 9. Upon membership, new members may be offered complimentary accounts with the club’s preferred online poker room, casino and sports book, which can be used at the members' descretion. Was i offered this? No, Big Slick simply went ahead and did it, with no thought as to wether i was ok about it, wanted it or wanted to allow an unknown company(to me) to have my personal details. I dunno if its possible or if you have the information to hand, but i always select no to any of my details being passed to 3rd party companies, and selected partners, simply because if i want to sign up for something, ill seek it out myself. No where on the online application form states that i would be signed up to KS Poker......so maybe there your intentions, but surely they should be written for us to see alongside the application form. Other members of this forum have also had the pleasure of 2am texts, not just myself, surely a txt offering your tournaments could be done at reasonable hours of the day, not much to ask. Regarding the club itself, its a great club, and i hope you succeed in being a success, the two nights ive played there ive really enjoyed myself:ok

Mainly becuase there is less risk of receiving drunken text messages from people who are having a far better time than you!

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue Dear Graeme, I am very sorry that you have been upset by any action we at Big Slick have taken. Please be assured that your details will be removed from the KS and BS databases and you should receive no more emails or text messages from either party. Upon signing-up for membership to the Big Slick Club, you would have been offered optional membership not only to the Big Slick Club, but also our preferred online partners. In return for this, free money would have been deposited into an account for you, which you had the option to use or ignore. I am presuming that you did complete the form. Without it, you could not have entered the club - nor would KS have been aware of your email address or that your username is 'morlspin'. Additionally, I should add, that under the terms of our premises licence we are obliged to record full details of every member, including name and address, along with proof of identity (a copy passport or driving licence) - and we have also to take a photograph of every member. However, since it is your wish to rescind your membership (which of course anyone is entitled to do at anytime), all records will be destroyed. We can assure you and all of our members that all such records that we have are kept securely and are treated with absolute confidentality. As previously stated, members' details have only ever been passed on to our online partners at KS, in line with the terms stated on the membership application form. Once again, please allow me to extend an unreserved apology to any member we have in any way offended. Anyone who has ever visited our club will know that we have tried to create a friendly club for lovers of the great game with a welcoming atmosphere and where the vast majority members are know individually to staff and fellows alike. Our aim has been to provide for our thousands of members a great place to play poker, as well as obtain good service and value online through our trading partner KS. If we got it wrong in your case Graeme, we apologise.

We hope that you and your friends might reconsider playing down here again. Ashleigh

Re: Big Slick Club Privacy Issue Hey Washman, Not yet sure what effect Derek Kelly's/GutShot's case will have on us but we are still running as normal and hope to do so for a very long time! Personally I knew nothing about poker until I started at BiG SLiCK on opening night, and now I'm really into it! I think it is a great shame for Derek Kelly and all the people that work at the GutShot especially as poker is hitting such a boom recently - it's every where you look:) ! Ash

Hi Ashleigh Like i said, it was an angry over reaction on my behalf and with your colleague and yourself explaining things its calmed me down! I just would have expected a simple email regarding the sign ups, as i genuinely didnt know about it and wasnt interested, but now its all sorted i thank you for your help and replies, forgiven and forgotton as far as im concerned. Hope everything works out for you re: the Gutshot case and buisiness booms for all poker clubs, you never know, if you will still have me as a member i may see you again one day! Graeme:ok
