<div class="bbWrapper"><b>New York Casino Doubletalk</b><br />
<br />
Well, I don't have the original email, for some reason (safely filed, no doubt). But I do have the reply, which is really a wonderful example of the English turn of phrase. After trying to get a response all day online at their site and off about the 10% bonus rather than 50%, I just withdrew my money (they kept their 10% bonus--I understand that), but here is the reply from "Samantha':<br />
<br />
"Thank you for choosing New York Casino.<br />
<br />
I am Samantha, a customer support representative here at New York Casino.<br />
<br />
We are in receipt of your most recent e-mail, with regards to your bonus queries.<br />
<br />
In response to this, we would like to apologize for the mistake made in correctly crediting your account with the relevant bonus. We have intentions of crediting the remainder of the bonus, however you currently have a pending withdrawal in your account. As per casino policy, a player is not allowed to receive a bonus to his account, when there is a pending withdrawal in his account. As a result, we advise you to cancel your withdrawal, and upon doing so, contact us by phone, to have the bonus credited to your account."<br />
<br />
(Blah, blah, blah--have a nice day)<br />

<br />
Well it was a case of "fool me once" and that's quite enough for me. So many casinos, so little time. <br />
<br />
The upshot is, that no one in online support actually told me the truth, and the original email to which I responded was not followed up by the actual promised bonus on a deposit of $50. That is that.</div>
