My gripe is that the entire theme of this bonus is about playing blackjack, it has a picture of a dealer's hands dealing, so I figured that meant it was some special offer that allows Blackjack (they generally do not allow blackjack on any of their bonuses) but when I message support they told me it's a restricted game, and the terms of Casino Tropez say that if you play any restricted game prior to meeting the wagering requirement they can choose to revoke your winnings.

Does this seem like a bait and switch to anyone else? Send you an email promoting Blackjack play, then confiscate winnings when you do so... seems fishy.

Very deceptive and unethical if you ask me.

LMAO, yeah that is pretty bad. Is it your game? Well if it is, it doesn't count toward wagering requirements. But deposit here anyway, play the game you love and then give us a reason to deny you your bonus. At Casino Tropez, that's just how we work. Deposit NOW!

This can only be a deliberate and deceptive exercise by the casino - even promo writers can't be this stupid.

Surely that should be 'deny you your bonus and winnings'.

Plus, I believe all email offers should come with the bonus restrictions.

I learned recently that Casino Tropez is owned by Playtech, however no one confirmed this to me.

If they are owned by Playtech, its to believe they should be more interested in giving their Casino a good reputation.

Playtech.. Amazing software. Once again, so many scammers using their software...

Apparently the word about the major screw up circled around the net rapidly

Got the same email. What a bunch of decieving thugs

I didi notice the wagering restrictions, straight away, but I swallowed it, and just thought thats them at the best

They have now removed the picture form their server, which showed the pictre of Blackjack in the email. I have taken a screenshot of the email, however the background where it says "Is Blackjack your game" had a nice picture of a dealers hand playing Blackjack (or something like that). I can't seem to get the picture from my computer cache.


For your info, Bonus Terms can be seen HERE and clearly excludes BJ

I have the jpg saved, I'll upload it tonight. It clearly shows a blackjack table with dealer's hands and cards on top of it.
