Intercasino - the last good bonus gone..?

[Nifty29]

Hey guys

Just received my offer for March from Intercasino and it looks like the days of reasonable wagering requirements are finally gone....

With a new month just around the corner, we thought now would be the best time to let you know about InterCasino’s brand new and more personal approach to monthly bonuses.

As you are one of our most loyal and valued players, we’ve taken the liberty of putting a selection of special March bonuses together and delivering them straight to your inbox.

On the menu this month we have a $150 Slots Bonus or a $100 Wild Card Bonus. The choice is most definitely yours! Without further delay, here is everything you need to know….

Your 100% March Slots Bonus – up to $150

Follow these simple steps to claim your March Slots Bonus:
1. Visit the Cashier in the Casino software and enter the Bonus Code MARSLOTS into the bonus code box before midnight on 31st March 2009.
2. Click the ‘Apply Bonus’ button.
3. Make a SINGLE deposit (minimum deposit of $25).
4. Exit the Cashier and refresh your balance by clicking on ‘Refresh’ in the bottom right window of the casino.
5. You will receive a 100% bonus - up to $150 of your initial deposit!
6. You are required to wager your bonus 30 times before you may withdraw your winnings, bonus money or initial deposit. 7. You may only wager on any Slot games, plus Cubis, Bejeweled, Sudoku, Lottery, Keno or our Scratchcards to meet the wagering requirement for this bonus.

18x to 30x, and only $10 more on offer.

Given that it was nearly impossible to make 18x, and they have WR carry over even if you zero out, I have to wonder what they are thinking. Since this particular one is slots only, there can be no "abusive strategy" that would be forcing them to compensate by making this move.

The wild card bonus has 60x wagering, but seems to add only 3 table poker games to the list of eligible games.

vinylweatherman, are you sure about the wagering requirements carrying over? Don't remember it being so, and can't find anything in the new terms stating it either.

If the wagering is lost with the bonus there is always the odd chance of making a profit..

Yes, their wagering requirement carry over, and stays valid for three months after which is should be null and void.

From personal experience, I know they'll manually clear it for a good customer.

Ive uninstalled Intercasino for the first time in 5 years.

Lets hope if others do the same, they might get the message.

The sticky wagering has always been a bone of contention as it does nothing to drive loyalty past one deposit a month (ive deposited again after busting, hit something really nice early on, and lost most of it clearing the stupid leftover WR), but Ive tolerated it due to the reasonable WR....but no longer.

Why dont casinos just adopt the MG EZbonus model?? Its so damn easy (well it SHOULD be n e way) and its fair to both casino and player.

now if you go to intercasino webpage the only bonus you find there is 140$ welcome bonus which is divided in 2 parts: you get 25% bonus upon your first deposit. And after you finish wagering you get additional 75%. The only valid wagering are SLOTS. Wagering requirements: 4200. Assuming 5% house edge on slots this bonus is absolutely disastrous.

That´s really hard. Ive been playing at IC for years now but, perhaps i´ll stay (like their games and fast payouts). But these new rules for the lifetimes bonus are really hard.

I also took part in their 150 bucks 100% offer and cashed out 2k. But i didn´t know about the 30x, so i was really lucky (perhaps teh last time).

According to their OWN payout reports , house edge should be around 8~9% on slots , making this bonus a complete joke.

I have been playing at Intercasino for a years now and i didnt get that March offer....
All i can get is the new monthly 100% bonus which i thought had to be some kind of mistake or it was just for the new player sign up promotion....but no sure enough it was correct.

I wouldn't of cared so much about the wagering changes from 18x to 25x and now to 30x but to have to apply 2 bonus codes and then only get 25% of the match up front and have to complete wagering requirements to get the other 75%

The payouts are lousy, so how in the world does one have a chance of completing wagering with 75% less bank balance than before and before it was hard enough to try and make wagering requirements with the full 100% bonus ontop of the deposit and only having to wager 25x

Wow way to go in the WRONG direction intercasino!
I love the slots they have but i have to say, i think i might give them the boot...well rather, the recycle bin
