I mean, who in their right minds would pay to promote that?

Pmsl; fortunately I'm banned from registering with any Casinos' under the ProgressPlay Brand, I guess having taken the NDB's with most of 'em (however, never managing to meet the WR).....I must add though, that photo would look much better with me "sandwiched" in the middle!

ProgressPlay used to be good !! 100% every Monday, free spins every Wednesday and sometimes Fridays... Until 
Things always change when it's just getting good
Now they want a minimum deposit of £20 on a Wednesday for those 5 free spins ?! that might be on Starburst, Glow, Aloha.. Ya know, them budget games 
So it feels anyway.
Moved well away from these sites because these are the only emails I get now, give us, give us, give us.. I'll give when I see a decent promotion

Thats just disgusting. Seing the rest of their tweets it is not a one-off either. In my books a casino is supposed to be a bit classy, but that company looks more like a joke with that twitter account.

I mean, Paddy Power used to make some very close to the edge adverts but they did a thorough job to not be offensive to a particular group and where there was a possibility, they would work with groups to make sure the ad was in good humour. I think ProgressPlay are trying too hard to be like that.

It's so badly photoshopped it's laughable. The shadows under the bloaters' chins are not from the same light, and the heads don't quite match the bodies. One of them has no excess chins and yet is stuck on a body so big that if it were hers she'd have more chins than the Beijing Telephone Directory. The one on the right of this human beach-ball contest is so badly done the false shadow from her neck actually goes up the left side of her chin so it looks like she's growing a beard.
If these people want properly offensive advertising, I can offer my services and no doubt do a better job.
It's not the advert I find offensive, but the shit quality of it.paul7388

Unfortunately its a real photo . They appeared on tv together in their costumes to show women should be proud of their bodies no matter what size they are.
If you read the link Dionysus posted it tells you about it.
They also tweeted about Yaya Toures wife saying with amount of money he earns he should be using it as his wifes not the greatest looker.
Anf they also tweeted about Jamie Vardy looking like an extra from Schindlers List.
Obviously they saw the success Paddy Power have had with their offensive ads and decided to give it a try as well.

Well fair enough, I hardly watch TV especially since that drivelling pair of Geordie tw*ts started monopolizing it. In that case it's so poor an ad they've made a genuine photo look like a photoshop!!

I know what you mean about TV.
Id have guessed it looked fake as well only I had looked at Dionysus link. As for those Geordie prats the only thing more annoying is the other one that's taking over every programme now that Stephen Mulhern or whatever hes called.

Well tasteless or not (and I aint got a thing against bigger people) its getting people talking ... which is what they want and not everyone will be offended by this. I personally find the site and the advert tacky and in no way makes me wanna go play. But im just one person. And they would have had to have the permission I presume for the people in the image. Although real I gotta agree with Dunover it does look like a badly put together photo soap. ....
