Troubled Nedplay Casino Acquired by 32Red – January 22nd, 2010

Microgaming powered Nedplay Casino.com, which has been worrying players for several weeks with bad communications and slow-pay problems, has been acquired by the popular 32Red AIM-listed online gambling group.

Initial player reaction appeared to be favourable due to 32Red’s outstanding reputation; it was awarded “Casino of the Decade” at Casinomeister earlier this week for outstanding support, ethical and responsive operations and business transparency.

A statement from 32Red revealed that the Nedplay player base would be absorbed and an immediate start made on processing outstanding player payments.

The takeover agreement also includes all Internet domains and Intellectual Property. The Nedplay branding will, at least for now, be maintained as the acquisition joins other 32Red brands such as 32Red Casino and Dash Casino. In the company’s statement, chief executive Ed Ware said:

“We are pleased to have the Nedplay Casino join our group and look forward to delivering the same high standards we apply across our existing operations to the Nedplay Casino.”

Nedplay players with approved pending withdrawals that are outstanding should expect payment from 32Red shortly, the statement advised, adding that the same applies to any outstanding affiliate payments.
