Well, earlier you posted

Not at all!
They have nothing to do with 888, and there software is a clone of 888, but obviously the RNG will be different.
The software is their own, and once you play there, you will see what I mean

First impressions were indeed that they were deliberately trying to ride on the reputation of 888, even to the extent of giving the company a name VERY similar to the processor behind 888. When this discussion was brought to their notice, they acted like they had something to hide, the site went down for a while, and they replied to you in a threatening tone, implying they were not interested in an informed/experienced player, but were specifically targeting the UK.
I can find absolutely NO terms & conditions for promotional chips, and the general terms have inactive links, such as the "prohibited programmmes policy" that goes nowhere, and the dropdown menu for phone numbers that trips a "denied access" from the web server. They also use a non-specific 0845 number that makes it impossible to work out where their support is based, and also prevents players outside of Europe from phoning them.
They claim to have been operating since 2005, so they should be over "teething problems".
I rather suspect they have set up shop to target the UK come September, when online gambling goes "mainstream", and could certainly attract some initial media coverage. New players will be lured in by what they see as a UK company (even has a UK company number), and they may not realise the significance of them being "legally regulated in Costa Rica". I wonder if they are "insured" there too
Better off playing at Palace of Fat Chance, at least we know HOW they are going to rip us off.
