Disgusting 888 Bonus Policy & Cashing Out - Help!

[Rick Deckard]

Just had a look at 888's casino-promotions/new-players-promotions/welcome-bonus.htm page and it says you should be able to wager with 100% playthrough on 888casinoLIVE? Which Live Roulette is a part of the Live Casino isn't it? That's how I would of understood it.

Though it also says lower down in the table that all versions of roulette 20% and all versinons of blackjack and bacarrat 10%.

Phewy this is confusing. Maybe an 888 rep here could clarify which of the 888casinoLIVE games contribute 100%?

" Wagering Contributions
Game Category Game Contribution

Video Slot & Slot 120%
The more you play, the faster we pay!

888casinoLIVE , Scratch card, Keno, Hi-Lo, Race, Arcade, Dice and all other games that do not appear in the table 100%

All versions of Roulette, Pai Gow Poker, Caribbean Poker, Triple Card Poker & Poker table games 20%

All versions of Blackjack, VideoPoker & Power Video Poker & Baccarat 10%

Craps 5% "

I know I'm quoting myself here but I would really like to know if any of the live casino games at 888 are allowed 100% on bonus wagering when playingthrough the bonus. Does anyone know if they do actually allow this?

This would be a wonderful and ground breaking step for an online casino group to take, if it is as I think actually allowed.

No accredited or BBF meister online casino that I know of offers 100% bonus wagering on live casino games. And it's potentially exciting news and a giant leap in the online casino industry where it would challenge other casino groups to rethink thier promotional bonuses and maybe even follow suit as news spreads about 888's tour de force live casino bonus creation.

Thier live casino is the same as Unibet I think in which it uses Evolution Gaming Sweden AB's live studio in Latvia. Where the players are playing under the jurisdiction of Alderney (brilliant) when accessing the Live Casino. Not Gibraltar (excellent) or Malta (lazy) licensing jurisdictions of the main casino the site operates from.

To conclude it would be live casino gaming in the most trusted jurisdiction with the fairest most competitive bonus offered in the world. Which would be a marketing coup that could potentially bring 8 million extra players beating a path to 888's casino doors. But does it do what it says on the tin? Is it 100% or is it 10 - 20%. Who knows!

So WHY do casinos consider the LIVE games to pay BETTER than the RNG versions, so cannot have 100% weighting for WR. Is it because they can rig the RNG, but CANNOT tamper with the LIVE variant

We don't know if 888casino live offer has a 100% weighting as of yet. It hasn't been confirmed or denied.

When you go to that link scroll down and you will see the terms and conditions of the Welcome Bonus, once you are in the Terms and Conditions there is a table that will explain what each game contributes to the WR.

Hope this helps

Thanks

One more thing in regards to Live casino vs. RNG.

Live casino is 100% because we have found that Live casino players are more loyal and valuable than an RNG player. This is only speaking for 888, I am not sure about other casinos, but over time this is what we have noticed.

Thank you Zultha and Rachel that's welcome and amazing news.

If you compare 888's live casino with a few other accredited online casino top names ( https://www.casinomeister.com/accredited-casinos/ ) that also offer live games you will see why this is a giant leap for fairness in bonus policies.

888 Live games - Blackjack Roulette Baccarat 100%

Bet365 Live games 25%

Betfred Live games 0% (Any wagering on these games will result in bonus and winnings being removed from a players account.)

Ladbrokes Live casino 0%

So, WHY such DRACONIAN measures for the live games as opposed to the RNG ones. Surely BOTH versions are just as "random" as each other.

The terms from these others suggest that there exists a CONSIDERABLE advantage in playing the live games, and since the live games are on physical devices, and CANNOT be tampered with through the software, the obvious conclusion is that the reason the RNG games are counted 100% is BECAUSE, unlike the live games, they CAN be run through "compensation" algorithms to prevent players from "winning too much" on them with a bonus.

The same happened to me

"Disgusting" in the title is fair as far as i am concerned

888 used a cheap tactic to trap this player and I am not the least surprised

888 belongs in the pit for more reasons than this.

I was playing roulette..
As I was depositing money £200 a bonus popped up as an offer
Every other bonus I had was kept in a separate account free play.
I won 2000 and when I went to withdraw.
It said I could only take my deposit.
They said I had to play my bonus a ridiculous amount of times....like make it 7000 or something.....near impossible.
So basically....I risked my 200....to get a bonus.
Which is a near impossible task.
If I read the terms properly I could of avoided that.
But anything that was won should of only been 20% as my bonus.
Not all winnings....and why is it not in a separate account....mixed up with your account money.
It is a scam...no doubt.
I lost 3000 the week before and it did not bother me as much as this happening.
I deleted my account.
After speaking to a lady on the phone.
Going on about the terms.
And on the terms on the pop up it says.
X30.....but says nothing about being more on roulette. SCAM....stay a way from these guys.

I like William Hill. They have some exclusive games I play however I never take a bonus as it's tied in with your real money.

And there in lies your problem.

And there in lies your problem.

Yes but I did do the ×30 ..... 40x30 = 1200.

And unless you go reading the terms wich is not easily understandable.
On the pop up it only says X30.
Nothing about it being more on roulette.
They said I had to spend 7000 through roulette.
Or 500 through the slots.
After I had won 2000.
And why is it all won off the bonus....not 20%.
And why is my bonus not kept separate from my money.
Like other bonus's.
Like the spin the wheel bonus.
It's a scam an expensive one.
