So 1 person complains to the DIA that the casino allowed them to gamble for long periods. The Secretary then believes thats enough to shut the place down. OTT.?
Presumably one of the possible reasons why the complainant is a "former customer" is as a result of an effective implementation of SKY's "Host Responsibility Programme".ie: the punter was banned.
This has a faint scent of someone being in lala land. Can costs of the action be sheeted back home to the complainant in the event of a vextatious ruling...?
This reminds of a classic situation some 25 odd years back when a punter in his pjamas living with his elderly Mum in a 2 bedroom brick n tile unit in Mt Roskill launched an unconditional takeover bid for RBD. The Company felt obliged to announce it to the market in compliance with the continuous dislcosure reg's but upon investigation it became clear the bloke didn't have sufficient finance lined up for the bid other than his plastic piggy bank.
Oversold here imo.
GLTA.
The chance of ex gamblers forthcoming are pretty high...once the news out...all the people will join the force, claiming the bucks that they lost at the casino.
Just like prince Andrew sex scandal....one news out .... literally many women came forward n claim the scandal real just to get $$$
The same with WINZ clients...they could claim the supermarket failed to stop them spent thier benefits money on buying alcohol n ciggies
Not a shareholder
I believe in personal responsibility. But know people can form addictions that should not spoil it for the majority Skycity ask you questions before you open a online account.
brought some yesterday , complaint still could end up as a smack on the hand once gone thru the process and anyway 10 days of suspension is the worst case.
at the end of the day gambling has been around since adam and eve so i dont think sky city is going away
My take is that this is far more serious than how they manage gambling addicts. The article refers to money laundering.
The Sydney casino years ago was done for not reporting suspicious gambling where one of the biggest drug gangs was regularly laundering $20M at a time and it not being reported. Like banks Casino's are required to report any cash transaction over $10K or what they just deem suspicious.

so if they have to report any cash transaction over 10k then nothing to worry about. they were following the law
anyway the announcement made for some good volumes for people who wanted to get in for the div ex 7/9 and remember max fine if i mean if implemented is roughly 10m if you go of reports they make a mil a day
