Not to make light of your problems clj, but I have and do play Harvey's, and I don't think I've ever played for $5.00 a spin. I know that most do play higher stakes than me (not hard, lol), but the lowest bet is actually 25 lines at 1 cent per line, or 25 cents per spin. I know, because that's usually how I play it, lol. Maybe 50 or 75 cents a spin if I'm feeling lucky. I don't think the casino programmed this specially at one cent per line. That's a denomination that's readily available all the time.
There have also been a few threads here re: the recent free spins promotions offered by MG casinos. Most of them have been max lines at one cent per line, with the exception of Villento, which offered 12 free spins on Avalon (a 20 line slot machine). They programmed it so that it was 8 lines at 20 cents per line.

I spoke to a woman named irit at alljackpots casino and was told they did program the 25 free spins at harveys at 1 cent per line. It is not programmed at 1 cent a line when normally playing. your manually setting it up to play at 1 penny a line. It's always set at 5 dollars a spin.You can change it however you play.5 dollars a spin is not playing big, thats an average bet for the game.

Hi clj7221,

Looking forward to hearing from you.

After the Belle Rock fiasco, why even take up a free spin offer that does not specifically state the # of lines and coin size?
I don't see why you are mad at the casino for making the spins only 25 cents, when that information wasn't given ahead of time. You were gambling that they would be generous.
It seems like the new free spins promo feature on MG is popular among players, but some of the casinos are taking advantage by not diclosing the real value of the spins and then making them really worthless. If people wanted to play free spins for no value they would go to fun mode.

I have no doubt that the free spins is a crafty marketing ploy used to make an offer appear far better than it really is. After only a couple of months, spectacular let downs have ruined what was a great innovation as an alternative to the standard deposit bonus and free chip.
Deposit $55 and get 100 spins FREE is a great headline, but when you find out the free spins are 1c & 1 line, and do the maths it is more like "get a 1.8% deposit bonus on your next deposit of $55" - great ploy. How much in deposits would the "old" deposit bonus equivalent have generated compared to the "free spins" wording.
Casinos that are more generous will suffer as this marketing tool is now percieved as a con trick rather than a real alternative to traditional bonuses.
Even 100 spins at 1c and all lines is only $25 to $30 (depending on game), and is less than the perceived standard minimum of $50 for the vast majority of traditional deposit bonus offers.
