Several online casino watchdogs and well respected gambling portals have issued a strong caution to players about opening an account at Hippo Jo Casino. Owned and operated by an Australian outfit, the site has been lagging in payouts and is apparently not doing anything about addressing complaints and issues. As a result, Hippo Jo Casino has already been "rogued" by several player advocates.

Only launched a few months ago, Hippo Jo Casino took off on a great start. Not only did they receive positive media attention for being owned and managed by an experienced Australian gaming management team, there was an apparent agreement that all player disputes would be accepted if brought through well respected online casino watchdog, Casinomeister. Since Real Time Gaming does not handle player disputes, knowing that Casinomeister could be called upon evidently put good faith in many players.

Casinomeister warns players about the advocacy situation with Real Time Gaming powered online casinos, and so will not guarantee mediation resolution. It was understood by players that Hippo Jo Casino was willing to negotiate with Casinomeister on behalf of players with legitimate complaints. A handful of complaints regarding slow payments is understandable, especially for a new casino. However, with complaints growing more by the day, and a lack of communication on Hippo Jo Casino's end, has many industry folks questioning the situation and ringing the warning bells.

There is still more to come regarding this case. If Hippo Jo Casino can rectify the problem quickly and make a public statement explaining their actions, it will not be too late to bide well in the public's eye. If not, Hippo Jo Casino will probably be blacklisted without delay.
