This is from Casinomeister News going back just over a month. Note that it is confirmed that African Palace is a sister casino to Indio Casino (see below) which has been around for awhile (hence the 1999 dating you refer to). Both casinos are using Playtech software.
African flavour
Latest online casino from Playtech is African Palace Casino.com, a cool looking site with an authentic African feel to it. As you might expect the financials are in South African Rands, dollars and euros on this operation, which carries a 60 plus download gambling suite of good quality. The casino is operated by a Curacao-licensed firm First Grand Gaming NV, and offers a wide range of financial options such as Neteller Instacash, Moneybookers, PPATM, 900Pay and FirePay. Email, livechat and tollfree 24/7 Support is available, as are the usual range of Playtech bonuses, starting with a phantom matchplay incentive maxed at $100 with a x10 WT of D + B (more for
BJ and
BJ Switch)
Indio Casino.com has resurfaced with Playtech software, having closed some weeks ago.
The casino was the subject of considerable strife, with players claiming slow-pays and no-pays when it was operating on Futurebet software. Indio's owners left the Futurebet software stable after some acrimonious disagreements. Players were left unpaid with one side claiming the other was responsible for them in terms of a business agreement.
In the end Jeff Hurley of Futurebet allegedly agreed to pay the aggrieved players out but under somewhat questionable circumstances. Their account balances were transferred to SportsbookUSA with a ten percent bonus....but were then subjected to a ten times WT.
