Re: Points from gas stations

Thanks tshi. I have been piling up Petro Points for a couple of reasons: They are closer to my place than Esso and their 3x Bonus points for lottery is still good until July 1st. Certainly miss the OLG gift card deals for PC Optimum points as we usually do our grocery shopping at Real Canadian Super...

Re: Points from gas stations

Have you seen any PC Optimum offers when we purchase OLG gift cards, tshi? I think the last one was last September for Shoppers, which is usually not as smooth as Superstore or Loblaws, as we typically had to wait for some time for the points to be credited from these Shoppers purchases. I recall th...

Re: Proline sports wagering limits policy change

I am sorry to hear what happened to your relative, Ricky. I hope she's getting the help she might need, I know the pull can be very strong. This is a reason why I decided not to open accounts with online books. I lack the self-discipline to be a profitable bettor and it's just too easy to place bets...

Re: Proline sports wagering limits policy change

Hey Ricky did you try other techniques like playing $99 (or amounts smaller than $100) ticket and try to run them multiple times? Or vary your wager amount so Ticket 1 would be $99, Ticket 2 would $90 etc for the same outcome? I know that will add time to the process but we do what we can. It's just...

Re: Points from gas stations

Hey mlansky, great to hear from you my good man. I trust all is well out West! You are absolutely bang on...I am not aware of anyone making mint off OLG or WCLC or ALC or BCLC, with respect to sports betting anymore. If they do, they are certainly not saying anything and playing cards close to their...

Re: Points from gas stations

I normally redeemed my Petro Points for Petro e-gift cards, which I can use for gas (or other items), and so far so good, but thanks for the heads-up. I am not sure if you guys are still playing ProLine in stores but a lot of Petro stations are now strictly enforcing the $100/outcome/day/person limi...

Re: Proline sports wagering limits policy change

No worry Ricky. Reports from other players I regularly communicate with on Twitter have been mixed. Some clerks at gas station insist it is $100 per person per day, completely ignoring OLG own rules about $100/outcome. It will be challenging to argue against those clerks whose priority may not be so...

Re: Proline sports wagering limits policy change

Just a data point on my end: A MLB player was not in the starting lineup today so I ran $99 ticket 10 times and they all went through, with no issue. There was no message flashing on OLG terminal about the new limit, or anything of that nature. Will continue to monitor the situation for the days/wee...

New limit coming into effect tomorrow. I will do a round of my usual stores tomorrow and see what's going on.

Please do the same and report back here.
