piggs peak online casinoJust last week the General Manager of Piggs Peak Casino said that it was going to be business as usual in South Africa despite the high courts ruling that online  gambling was illegal has now announced that they are shutting  down operations in South Africa until after the appeal  process has been completed. With this turn of events, it looks like Piggs Peak Casino is not that sure of itself after all. Based out of Swaziland, where  they operate  a land based casino and a online casino, Piggs  Peak owner  operators  were  advised to stop taking punters bets and any form of  online gaming in South Africa until the  laws are clear on South African players playing at their Swaziland licensed internet  casino.

Operations Director, Lew Saul Koor stated that last week when they announced that it would be business as usual for Piggs Peak Casino despite  the new high court ruling, we believed that until our  appeal was resolved we could operate freely, but we have now been advised that all operations should be stopped until such time that a decisive decision has been made in the  Pretoria High Court. He went on to say, “In your interests we have taken the step to stop operating at Midnight August 28th until our application for appeal has been heard and the outcome is announced, which we feel should take no more than a week or two”.

Players who have existing balances in their Piggs Peak Accounts can still withdraw their monies by contacting the support center via email.
