Hello BPU Members and BPU Staff...

For months now I have been sitting quielty reading posts and what everyone has to say. I haven't posted anything in a very long time, so I thought I would post my thoughts and feelings now.

First, to the Staff and BPU, I can't commend you guys enough. It does mean something to me that you are all willing to help bingo players to resolve issues and ask for nothing in return. I know it takes countless hours to research and investigate each issue. God Bless Ya!!! I feel if it weren't for you (BPU) and all your HARD WORK, players would be at a total loss. I am sure some people are saying HARD WORK? Well hell yes, it takes alot of time and effort and a great set of eyes to research everything on the internet and send out e-mails and letters to try and get things resolved. And all the efforts to keep the forum updated on all the issues. From the bottom of my heart, I say THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU AT BPU!!

Second, to members of BPU, my heart goes out to all of you that have issues. I don't care if you live in the US, Canada, England or on the moon, being treated unfair is horrible. I use to play bingo on line all the time. Was on most sites, my screen name never changed, always was LHofsdal. I played all the time, won lots of money and lost lots of money. But thankfuly, I was always paid. For those of you who are fighting for your money, DON'T STOP FIGHTING!!!!! That is what they want. And thank heavens for BPU and its staff that is willing to help all of you, without them, you just might not have a leg to stand on.

One stand that I have personally taken, is I will not play on line bingo anymore. After seeing some of the post on the board, there is to much of a risk. Another stand I have personally taken, when I get an e-mail offering me a bonus I reply with this message...

"When you have taken care of the issues that you have with XXXXX and the Bingo Players Union, I just might think of coming back, but until then, I will kindly tell you, take this bonus and put it where the sun doesn't shine!!! (with a smile :) "

I just wanted to let everyone know, that I appreciate everything BPU does and the I will stand behind anyone with a legitimate issue. It is 1 way I can help and support my fellow bingo players.

Thanks for the time to voice my opinion.

Thank you for the kind words LHofsdal It's because of members, like yourself, that we keep going.

That was some very kind & true words ~~ Glad to see you take the time to post it. I am sure many feel the same way, I know I do.
Welcome and Thank you ~~!

I too appreciate all of the work the moderators put in here to make sure that regular old players get treated fairly and have the opportunity to play at sites where they reward you hfor winning instead of trying to take you for everything. I have gotten so many useful tips by visiting this site!

I'll second the appreciation of the moderators. From what I can tell they are looking out for the little man. Great job mods and admin.

I have too much fun playing to swear it off forever but I hear where you're coming from. You get burned once and it sure is hard to get back in the game again. But everyone here does such a good job with keeping onliners like us up to date with everything current and new- I know that I never have to worry when I visit a site that gets the nod here.
