    Blimey, what a rip-off. I'd better play a quick $3 SnG on there in case it happens to me too. Got a few quid gathering dust in my account but haven't been on for ages. Thanks for the warning.

    Had a similar thing happen at Lad dies. They charge a couple of quid a month if the account has been inactive over a year (but only until your balance is used up). I didn't realise I had a couple of quid in it, and promptly lost it on a football bet.

    What a liberty - its bad enough they charge you on each withdrawal

    I,ve no doubt it will be in the Terms and conditions buried somewhere in the middle, but how many ppl have the time to read these- I,m sure they make them so long and hard to understand so they can add little rip-offs like this

    Thx for the warning - I haven,t played on there myself for ages , but used to enjoy the shootout tourneys

    My bro got a similar email from Lad brooks, they charge an administation fee if you don't use you account on a regular basis after you sign up - What a Rip Off.

    And they usually colect it through the credit/debit card you used to sign up with.
