Canadian's with American IP Addresses

Posted:26.07.2009, 00:57

So here is my problem...

Many casinos that allow Canadians to play, block me from playing because my IP Address shows that I'm in Wichita KS, USA.

AOL is my internet service provider. People in Canada using AOL have their IP Address showing as USA. People in Quebec Canada have their IP Addresses showing them in Germany or Great Britain.

All PlayTime casinos block me from loging in, or allowing me to log in and block me from opening the games. I have spent about 6 hrs chatting with support at about 5 different playtime casinos...The end up telling me that untill I have a Canadian IP address, I cannot play!

AOL has not been able to solve my problem either.

Has anyone else had this problem and been able to fix it???

(this problem would allow me play RivalGaming casinos, hehe, but cashing out would be a problem)

I just played 1 hour free play at Fortune Ruby Casino (microgramming).
won some, made a deposit to claim winnings and keep playing....but my instant echeck deposit didn't show up. I contact live help we told me US players are not allowed to play. I asked them to look me up, look up my banks address, call me at my Canadian phone #. The rep responded with sorry for the confussion, thanks for trying are casino...Chat Ended....LOL

So I called the 800#, they told me I couldn't play unless I have a Canadian IP Address.

I was alittle pissed off since I just played their casino for an hour! And I suggest they do the IP check befor allowing people to waste an hour of their time.

There are alot of AOL users in Canada. Someone else must have had or be having this problem as well.. PLEASE HELP
I will not be depositing to any new casino untill I can get this worked out.

***just a note to Canadians, those in Ontario to be more specific. AOL charges 23.95/month with unlimited downloading. Rogers has a hugh market campaign right now. They have called me three times. And all three times have told be that can't touch the deal I have!***

CCK_CandianCasinoKing, Hi! If you are in Canada you can play Micro but not Rival.

If you are in the US then you can play Rival and not Microgaming. It is your actual location when playing that matters.

If your IP address shows USA but is Canada... You could tell
the microgaming casinos and if you prove your location, they will
let you play.

You probably will not be able to play Rival because even if your IP shows as USA, your address still shows as Canada.
