Hmmmm......

The Casino will not be responsible for telephone, technical, network, online, electronic, computer hardware, or software failures of any kind, misdirected, stolen, incomplete, late, illegible, garbled or delayed Internet computer transmissions on account of technical problems or traffic congestion on the internet or at any website, or any combination thereof or for incomplete, lost, late or misdirected submissions.

So they're basically saying that if someone at their company steals the information from your faxback form including your DL, credit card number, etc., then they're not responsible for what happens....



30 cents a spin? How are they going to do that? 5 lines @ .06? 6 lines @ .05? Which is it??

$50 or $20??

Sheesh....

It's another botched MG free spins promo. The third in a row. How much do you have to purchase? First it is $50 then $20. Do you have to play Gift Wrap with that purchase to qualify?

I'll pass.

LOL...I just noticed this little tidbit:

Loyalty Points may not be cashed in, and must be played at a Casino Rewards Partner Casino.

WTF? What's the use in getting loyalty points if they're NON-REDEEMABLE TO CASH OUT? Basically they're giving you a STICKY BONUS FOR THE AMOUNT OF YOUR "LOYALTY" points.

Sheesh, this group needs to go bankrupt so fast it'll make your eyes bleed. If they keep this BS up, they will definitely not have any "LOYAL" players anymore, and have to rely on the suckers out there that don't know this group's true colors.

They get deposited into your clearpay "bonus account", so you can extract some value out of them if you work at it.

At that's loyalty points, it sounds like the free spin winnings *might* actually go into your cash balance.

Still.

Loyalty points = comps.
comps = free, with no strings

Let's see them try to attach T&C or a WR to comps at a B&M and see what happens.

I've never had anything (bonus, comp, etc) put directly into my cash acct at Casino Rewards. They put everything as points into the comp acct then you have to redeem them.

The problem is that they have once again blocked me from redeeming points from my comp acct. They seemed to loosen up a bit just before they got ecogra approved, and now they are back to their old tricks.

A story from one of my gambling books: a player wanted to take his wife to Vegas on a shopping trip using comps he had already earned, but the casino insisted that he play at his usual level in order to get the free room. This looks very much like WR on comps. Result: one very annoyed player.

Casinos should realise that reducing the value of comps from 0.1% to 0.08% or whatever by imposing WR on comps must cost them more than what they gain.

What a rip off! I just logged in to find the 100 free spins, but it is only 25 cents per spin.

Well, I did participate in the CasinoRewards free spin thingy. Despite the uncertainty over how to qualify and what it was worth, I deposited $50 into my account on New Year's Eve. I then wagered $50 on single deck blackjack, (in case there was a $50 wagering requirement). Then I played 50 one-penny spins of gift rap (since they were have been a gift rap requirement). Then I requested a withdrawal (which will be important later). Tonight, I got an email saying I had qualified.

My prize? 100 spins, 25 lines, one penny per line. (what a reasonble person would expect). Or in other words, $25 worth of slot play, which is a pretty good promo.

However, all winnings are deposited into the bonus balance.

I've decided that Gift Rap is a pretty crappy slot. However, I did hit the rappin' santa pickem feature, and I just coudn't hit a whammy if my life depended on it. There are 36 boxes to start with, 3 have the whammy, and I got down to the last five. The odds of that happening are freaking ridiculous. It was like a $30 win on that one spin. Total bonus balance win was about $56.

Then there's the cruelest irony: since is that it is against the way of my people to just simply wager through a microgaming bonus balance, I had to bet it up big first. So I lost it all on two hands of black jack.
