I am planning to win the MegaMoolah progressive jackpot this year However, I have self-excluded from some casinos in the past, which by extension meant all casinos in that group. My reason for self-excluding has always been due to some dissatisfaction with the casino rather than for Responsible Gambling reasons, such as problem gambling/addiction. Self-excluding for me was a way of assuring the casinos that I would not be coming back to them! I didn't consider the potential long-term impact that my actions could have at the time; it's only lately I am considering it.
I am just wondering about the checks that the casinos do alongside the game provider (Microgaming in the case of MegaMoolah) prior to paying out jackpot wins. I am finding it hard to source the exact nature of the checks, but I do know it includes confirmation of identity, checks that you're not self-excluded (or otherwise excluded) from the casino that you've won the jackpot at, that no illicit activity such as money laundering is involved, and that you haven't somehow cheated the system to win the jackpot.
So, my question is: could they refuse to pay you out the jackpot if they find out that you've excluded yourself from some other casino/casino group?
Anyone have any experience of cross-group sharing of self-exclusion data?
