We can prove that gaming machines are unfair...
and that they do not return the statutory minimum of 87% to the player.
In order to bring to justice those responsible for the damages they have caused, and
have the case heard in a court of law, we need YOUR help.
To quantify the size of the claim and to include all those
people that have suffered as a result of unfair gaming machines, we ask for your
details including your personal and financial losses and contact information. There
is no cost involved in becoming a class member.
So if you are one of the estimated 3 million Australians who have
been adversely affected by gaming machines, or if you are one of the
estimated 300,000 "problem gamblers" in Australia, you have the opportunity to
take action, make the system fair and re-build your life.
Whether you are the person using gaming machines, a family member
or even a friend, you can become a class member in the action against the Australian
government, private industry corporates and gaming associations.
The relevant Government authorities have been alerted to the evidence and
information detailed on this site, however they continue to deny that gaming
machines return less than the statutory minimum. The only way to settle the
matter is for the matter to be heard in a court of law.
Read through
the case, look at the proof, understand the significance of the
'player return percentage' in gaming legislation and how it is applied to the operation
of gaming machines. Then visit
statistics
to see how an inaccurate 'player return percentage' affects us all.
Let's try to put an end to the arguments, the
frustration, the tears, the bankruptcy, divorce, job loss and even suicide which are
some of the terrible things we have endured as a result of unfair gaming machines.

| Consumer Affairs Finds Tabcorp in Breach of Fair Trading Act
AAGM have discovered that Tabcorp Holdings' poker machine practices
have been found to be in breach of the Fair Trading Act by Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV).
The Compliance and Enforcement Branch of CAV has issued a strong warning to the
gambling monolith stating they expect them to comply with the law.
Tabcorp breach the act by not providing receipts to consumers for purchases
of gaming machine credits. Full Story...
One Hotelier Has Confessed
"Thank goodness for poker machines", he says.
He collects a LOT more cash from the machine than the Unitab Gaming Report
indicates.
Whilst the Monthly Net Meter Invoice Report may indicate
that $3,100.00 was entered into the Banknote Acceptor by gaming machine players, this hotelier
physically removes a LOT more cash than that from the machine. This same report
provides data for the Return to Player (RTP) yet the simple calculation of Total
Return / Total Turnover shows that the RTP is WELL BELOW the statutory
minimum.
"I don't worry about the data, I just look at the revenue for
my hotel".
