3Dice- Settle Rainy Day Funds?

[weesie]

Can someone tell me what this means?

 

[butterflyboogie]

It means if you have gotten rainy day funds from 3 dice to play on....like a loan...when you have a withdrawal they take that money back. For instance, just say you borrowed $50 from rainy day funds, later on win $200, then you have to pay back the $50 and they send you the balance. Then you can "borrow" again. I wish all casinos had this.

 

[weesie]

Oh, ok.............. thank you for your reply. I don't think I like that idea at all.

I thought it was just a cute name for bonuses! So, that means I owe 3Dice

$30.00?, since that is the amount it says I need to "settle"? Yuck! No offense to

the casino but, no thank you! Now, I have to worry about paying that back!

The help information is about as straightforward as you could ask for.

Personally I think 3Dice's safe system and Rainy Day funds are both excellent innovations. Admittedly I haven't used the Rainy Day funds myself, but it's a great idea for the reasons they list in the help information.

Note that the funds are ONLY taken from your next withdrawal and NOT your next deposit.

If you're really that put out by it then as the help file says, just think of it as a final comp bonus (indeed, in that regard the Rainy Day funds are a bonus), as you don't have to pay the money back if you don't intend to play at the casino again.

TBH you just haven't read the information that 3Dice provide, you haven't been tricked into doing anything!

It is actually a great feature imo. This means you did use the $30.00 that was available to you. If you didn't understand what the funds were when you moved from your safe to your real balance you maybe should of asked support. It doesn't display as a bonus, it displays in your safe cashier in parentheses showing it is rainy day funds and like Chopley stated detailed information was and is available.

 

[butterflyboogie]

Hi Weesie, don't stress about it. It is like a loan that will not effect your other bonuses or future deposits. It will only come out when you withdraw. Actually it is like a small loan with no interest There are times you might want to play but you simply don't have the money to play...this allows you to. You may like it once you get use to it. I love rainy day!

 

[weesie]

Yes, I KNOW I should have read all the rules. I have been an on-line player for 13 years. I admit I

should have asked. 3Dice so different than any other casino, I definately should have. I know now.

I did look around in the cashier and I must have missed it, or I would NOT have asked here!

 

[butterflyboogie]

Good luck Weesie, maybe you will win a bundle!!

It's nothing to stress about weesie, you haven't 'lost' anything and you can continue playing at 3Dice as you did before.

The only thing that's changed is next time you make a withdrawal 3Dice will take the $30 out and you'll get the rest.

 

[blonde]

Weesie we all have been there. When I first started I was like what in the world is this and now my rainy day funds is kind of too high, but it's my own fault lol. Good luck to you and may you win tons and hope to see you in chat.

 

[azzagirt]

I love the feature and use it regulary. I always make sure I pay it back asap so it's there again and again. The amount you are lent is dependant on your level and like others have said if you don't want to pay it back you just don't play there again.
Imo it's a rather generous gesture and a pretty good lure aswell. Clever marketing I say. So for me Rainy Day loan is a big attraction as well as the games themselves which I love. Another attraction is very very low wr on deposit bonuses. They have many features that keep me coming back! And myself am happy for it to be the only one that gives me credit..haha..

 

[rockycatt]

its a no stress xpress i owe them $$ on and off many times in a day just a lovely perk cant be found any were else on the net
oh and i believe its loyalty related

 

[weplant]

I think it is a great bonus..So typical of 3dice..They really make it a pleasure to play there..
I owe them money right now...Gotta win something, so I can pay them back..Good luck

 

[basdgds]

Thats interesting

I have never heard of anything like that before.
I would never use it though, because thats a real
good way to get in bad standing with an online account.

Nah, you won't get in 'bad standing".
As it has been said, you only pay it back if and when you make a withdrawal, and after you pay it back, it's there again for you to use as you wish.
I like it.

 

[rockycatt]

i'm quoting enzo right here he said in public that if a player that has been given the privilege of the safe ever desires to stop playing
that player needs to not worry about the balance due and consider it a final perk benefit from 3 dice try to find that anywhere in cyberspace that's reason alone that they are head and shoulders above the rest

i play at 3 dice rockycatt

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Just to chime in here, I get absolutely shafted on withdrawals from 3Dice, this is not 3Dice's fault and is entirely the fault of the various banks involved and Moneybookers. (My most recent withdrawal saw me get £191 back to my bank account from a £224 withdrawal.)

But I still deposit and play at 3Dice, it's a fantastic casino run by great people and they have some superb games at good solid RTPs, the real time chat is fantastic, the internet radio is a genius addition, the CS is first-rate, and the safe and Rainy Day funds are genuine industry innovations.

As a casino I trust them, and in the wild west of online casinos, trust is the most important commodity going - the Rainy Day funds are nothing to be fearful of, they're something 3Dice do that is (AFAIK) absolutely unique and yet another factor in making them one of my favourite casinos to play at. (And as a UK player I can choose to play anywhere.)

Given how much of the online casino industry treats its players, suspicion as a 'first response' from a player is understandable, but IMO 3Dice aren't deserving of suspicion, quite the opposite, in fact.

Point being, don't sweat it about the Rainy Day funds, it's just one of those things that 3Dice have come up with that makes them something different and something better.

 

[nepatsfan01]

I absolutely love the rainy day funds... it gives me something to look forward to but it also is a place I can play when I don't have any of my own money to deposit. Granted, I'm in the hole for a bit right now but it has now become the only casino I play at so I'm good for it The rainy days funds are just one of the many many reasons I have come to love 3Dice in such a short period of time!

 

[tjhale]

Love this feature, truly unique and unmatched by any other casino online, this is the type of thing I believe truly shows that 3dice stands above all competition. Aside from that, they don't ever EVER have a withdrawal limit, which in my mind, will always keep me coming back, because when I get a bonus from them, I shouldn't have to worry, how much can I win, I mean honestly. When we start accepting online casino's that give free money, or free chips, and then limit the amount we can win. We wouldn't accept this from our land based casino's, micro gaming never did this to us, this is how you truly set apart what I deem as a great online casino, at least in my books. Raise the bar, I have, and give no other online casino's a dime, unless they meet these standards, so ridiculous to not look at things this way.

 

[incrediblestuff]

#dice still rocks in terms of freebies and loyalty system, the more you play the more they pay, so youll have to be a regular to benefit mostly: the rainy day is a mixed blessing, for some players at least, but, of course it s your own choice if you decide to use it.
And the setup itself is very generous, so overall a very good feature!
Cheers @ 3dice

3Dice have gone from being a casino I'd never played at and also had a moan about - https://www.casinomeister.com/forum...bonus-wagering-requirements-are-insane.49651/ - to my favourite place to play in less than two months.

From Enzo contacting me personally after I started that thread and offering to remove the WR on my first deposit, to their incredibly quick withdrawals, the friendly real time chat, the amazing CS, the Zeitgeist page and their transparency, the interaction with the community here at CM, the fab VIP offers, the NDBs, the very reasonable bonus WRs, the unique slots, the fact they're the ONLY casino in the world I'm aware of that actually uses proper graphics card rendering - everything about them is different, and different for the better.

I think it's very important that people don't think of 3Dice as a 'second class casino' - i.e. you'd only play there if you were a US player and didn't have many choices, that sort of thing.

As a UK player I can play anywhere, anyhow, any time I like - but 3Dice is my favourite and my first choice. (Jackpot Party run them a close second though!)

 

[weesie]

First, let me say thank you to all the replies.

This is JUST my opinion. Please don't beat me up!

Now, I feel I have honestly given this casino a fair try and I appreciate that you all

love it, but, I just don't see what you guys see. I haven't had to deal with

customer service, so, I can't comment on that.

But, I don't see the attraction to their slots. There are not that many to choose

from. True, they are unique, different than all other casinos. But, with minimal

game choices, if you can't win some once in a while, it gets boring real fast.

Because so many of you feel so very strongly about this site, I have stayed with it

longer than I have at most sites that I lose at. Just waiting for the "magic" and it

ain't happening.

What slots have you been playing at 3Dice weesie? And at what stake versus your bankroll?

The video slots at 3Dice do seem to be quite heavily weighted on payouts towards the bonus rounds, so you need to be sensible with your stakes and make sure you get a few hits on the bonus rounds in any given session.

You can play the 'classic' slots to remove the bonus round weighting, but then you are into a higher variance arena

Then move on to another one, and come back later. I know I've had my share of dry spells there.

 

[nepatsfan01]

Maybe it's just not for you I don't think you should have to stay with it if you don't like it or it doesn't work for you... I say you gave it your best shot it sounds like... it's kind of a like dating a man you were set up with... you know they're a good guy, all your friends tell you that they are perfect for you, they seem great on paper, but there just aren't butterflies It happens, nothing to stress about. Just say your goodbyes and find a new man that wows you

As for me, I'm still having a love hate love relationship with them... I was thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close to cashing out today - it's my own fault. My rainy day funds have gotten pretty big and I wanted a certain amount to cash out at but then I realized I had to pay back the rainy day funds (which I could have totally done and left myself about $400 to cash out with) but I wanted to cash out at $500 - I just had it in my mind because I wanted to do a wire transfer... well you know how it goes, LOL. It was hitting hitting hitting and then BAM! Nothing. I mean nothing, lol. It was like it had read my mind and got me within $40 of my goal and then took it away. Ha, lol, yep, the rationale of a gambler

[rockycatt]

i'm a video poker player and that's were they shine best for me , they got more VP variations than slots

 

[weesie]

When I first joined I was playing with a $20 deposit, betting minimums and trying all the games. Nine times out of ten it would only last me about 20 minutes. I have fooled around with minimum deposits of $10-$15 just to see what I could do with it.

Yesterday, I did a $10 spot and did get my balance up to $48.00 playing payola at 40c a spin. That is the best I have done. It was kind of a downer though because I got the disco balls for 45 spins and during that play, I got them 3 more times for 16 spins each. But with all those spins my total win was $29.00. For almost 100 spins, that's not great. IMHO

Still thinking about the site............

This is primarily why I do not advocate the 'Rainy Day Funds'. I have had wicked losing streaks at 3Dice and also tried the 'Low Rolling' approach. I have played max bet on occasion / inbetween and low rolled and saw wicked losses.

I was on Gold ***** at one stage which meant that my rainy day funds were pretty high. Not huge but somewhere between $250 - $350 (Can't quite remember). Every time I played this little payment made me try to actually win a bit more to recover to pay that off. The end result was excatly as you put it - Busting out when you could have made a withdrawal.

It is a nifty feature; however it is not in the interest of the player. It could work to your detriment easily. Having $15 or $20 is one thing, but $250 to $350 is another gig. especially when its so difficult to cash out there in the first place.

I have spoken to Enzo about it and he gave me a suggestion to get rid of it (which is appreciated) however; whilst some may see it as a perk, its not really in the interest of the player.

I still can`t believe that an IoM resident doesn`t have a Neteller account , i`m sure if you walked around that lovely little island of yours you will bump into their offices

[Nate]

and FYI - I forgot to add something else:

The Rainy Day Funds are taken as a 'Final Comp' only IF you close your account. Going from Gold ***** to Bronze or even Player status will not change what you owe. This stays stuck in the Cashier until it is settled but will not be reusable because it depends on what level you are on. Its basically - You owe me Cash dude and I want it back from that withdrawal...

Also reopening an account after closure will not remedy this either - I did suspend my account at 3Dice and opened it a few months later and they were still there. In any event - Just a bit of Clarity to those who don't know much about the subject.

Hope the info helped!

LOL I work about three minutes walk away from their offices

I do have a Neteller account but it's been dormant for so long I have to request a phone call off them, which is a hassle and I can't be arsed.

That phone call will save you loads on bank charges , plus, Neteller have a rewards programme running now where you can earn extra cash, goodies etc, I guarantee your bank won`t give you extra cash the more you deposit/withdraw with them .

Are they really that much better than Moneybookers on fees then?

I'm not even sure it's really Moneybooker's fault TBH, it's the various banks (including my own bank!) who really seem to gouge.

My own bank just deducts £7.50 from any amount that arrives in there from Moneybookers!

As far as fees go for depositing it`s around 1-2%, I cant give any help regarding Skrill as I closed my account there shortly after the Betfair fiasco, check their website out for more fees info .

 

[nisosbar]

I'm sorry but I don't understand some of the criticism - it seems like they go out of their way to serve customers well, and then in response, it has to be 'too good to be true', 'it's a conspiracy!', 'they're being tricky!', etc. LOL

Sometimes I think many people actually WANT to be abused, lol. Not just in the kinky way, either. And if they aren't being abused and exploited, something's 'fishy'.
