Early Winter On Wager Island

Looks like Wager Island has run into some problem with the bank they are using. The situation looks to be a temporary one. The game, in the meantime, has been frozen, which is ironic since the more lucrative parts of the island are spawned from a volcano. Anyway, here are the full details.

Wager Island's primary banking facility, First Curacao International Bank, has been closed by the Dutch Authorities. This has resulted in some delays in paying withdrawals over the past few weeks.

This has nothing to do with Wager Island, the bank has been closed in connection to VAT fraud taking place in Europe.

We are rushing to set up a new primary banking structure, but until then we will freeze the game.

Please due not be alarmed, we will update you regularly as to when we will open with our new banking structure in place.

To verify what we are saying is true, please click on the following links for news and articles regarding First Curacao International Bank.

Just curious here, are you still promoting this program?

Tough question. Let's just say I'd still be leaving my referral link lying around.

The point is that you can't make any deposits right now, so there isn't any harm being done.

However things are not looking good. There hasn't been any form of communication whatsoever coming out from the people who run the show here.

I'd still being giving them the benefit of the doubt until the turn of the year. If their cash is indeed stuck in the bank, it's going to take sometime (years) to get it out via the courts. But since I only have less than a 100usd stuck in program, I'll leave those with a heavier vested interest to find out more.
