Casino Rewards takes over Integrity Casinos

March 25, 2005

The following press release has just been received from Jamie Taylor's Casino Rewards group, which has taken over the troubled ICL group today.

Although Jamie Taylor comments on the " ....unfounded speculation regarding delayed payments" he does not address the issue at the crux of the ICL problems - the questionable disqualification of bonuses from players who the casino group did not want, but who had met all the terms and conditions for the reward of those bonuses.

This remains a major issue for the player, affiliate and portal communities and the manner in which the new owners treat this element, and the priority they give it will be closely watched.

PRESS RELEASE:

Casino Rewards Group, operators of leading casinos including Blackjack Ballroom and Golden Tiger, and Integrity Casinos Limited, operators of the long established Captain Cooks Casino, today announced that the companies have reached an agreement under which Casino Rewards will acquire all Integrity gaming entities.

Jamie Taylor from Casino Rewards stated, "The Casino Rewards Group and ICL are both Microgaming powered groups and share complementary business models, which will allow easy integration of ICL’s product offerings and most importantly uninterrupted provision of service for all ICL players.

This acquisition is an exciting opportunity that will make Casino Rewards a stronger company with increased opportunities for growth and greater resources to offer clients. ICL brings a suite of long standing and well respected brands, which really made the acquisition an easy decision, we can’t wait to get the operational ball rolling, and put an end to the unfounded speculation regarding delayed payments”.

Casino Rewards has emphasized that all players and affiliates will incur no intended disruption to business at ICL, with all player and affiliate accounts to continue and be paid as per standard trading terms.
