[dorsetpotter]

They have offered me there latest bonus of £250 but what they did not tell me was i had to play £7500 to get it, does this company have no limits to ther greed.

Someone's got to boost the coffers after their disasterous share price falls. Shame it had to be you

Yes but they're only a 'slightly bad' Rogue outfit

I'm confused - how is this a scam? Isn't it just a 30x D&B post-WR bonus like several other casinos offer or are there hidden restrictions? Can you expand a bit more dorsetpotter?

Ah... that was misleading. I see now.

There used to be times when you deposited money and got a bonus, not with this lot you deposit money and they might offer you a bonus deposit £7500 and we will give you £250 then play it 30 times and we will let you keep it. get real this is another scam by the company that is king of all scams, avoid this casino at all costs

It's just a bonus - another "free" money offer . If the terms aren't to a player's liking then they can choose not to take it. A scam is something dishonest which this clearly isn't - it's a normal post-wager bonus offer which a) several casinos do and b) is pretty much the most risk-free and hassle-free bonus offer around.

This thread also raises the question, if you felt Betfair scammed people previously, why would you even go back there?

Without posting the t&c it's impossible to discuss this topic.

From your first post you say play £7,500 not deposit, so you could in theory deposit £10 do £7,500 wagering and get £250, seems fine to me.

If you are going to play anyway you have nothing to lose, if you make the wagering you get extra, if you don't then you have only lost what you were going to play anyway.

As mn001 says, should have posted t&c so we can see for sure what the rules are.
