If you're promoting Gala affiliate programs you may want to remove your links as they're no longer going to Gala Bingo or Gala Casino.

St Minver are no longer supporting the products, affiliate system has vanished, and all links offer users the opportunity to play at another St Minver site.

Thanks for letting us know - I was wondering what happened to the affiliate site. Damn - and they owe me £30 too. Tch.

I suspect this might have been sprung on Gala unexpectedly too though. Their own homepage now points to the St. Miniver page, and as I work for the company in one of their halls, I know that we were still promoting Gala Online yesterday!

Its very poor that we were given no notification. I only learned that it was finished because I received an email as a punter.

'Gala's online bingo site is no longer available as part of the St.
Minver Bingo Network, however we are delighted to welcome you to a
whole new site - Chit Chat Bingo.'

There has been no affiliate communication what-so-ever and where has all the money gone, I had built up a large amount of playing referrals and a sizeable balance. Those referals will now just move over to chit chat bingo. Do I continue to trust St minver, is it them or Gala that I persue for my commissions.

St minver are still operating virgin bingo, should we continue to promote them on affiliatefuture? because it may just happen again.

Had two emails off St Minver - which for a weekend is a good sign.

I'm told...

Monies owed from GB will be paid.
The position of players accrued under GB is being checked but they should just move to the new St Minver bingo system (this has to be confirmed)
They apologise for not contacting affiliates!
The Gala Group will be launching a new site!
St Minver's new site will be more proactive affiliate wise.

hi Jason

Thanks for the reply and the info. Thankfully, after your post, the future for my bingo site seems better it did a few hours ago. :-)

Bloody Disgrace GALA!

Thanks for letting us know about this. I have pulled all links now. Its things like this that really demonstrate the value of this forum to affiliates.
