sorry but i agree with dirk. its not your responsibility to assume the role of detective and investigate every inch of the casino website to locate what possible could pertain to the bonus offer by email.
if a casino includes terms and conditions in a bonus offered via email, then does not include a "please refer to promotional rules on our website for full terms and conditions" or "all promotional terms and conditions on our website apply" then the player cannot be expected to include the terms on the website.
What if you were an existing customer of the casino, had played there after coming in via the front page (with terms & promo's all present on the site), then were sent a *special* existing player offer via email which only contained additional terms specific to that offer.
Would you assume the coupon was free of all standard playing terms, with no mention of max cashout or wagering requirements?
I agree that the process appears deceptive, but that wasn't our intention - it was carelessness on our part to not simply add 'please ensure you have read and understand the full site terms by clicking here'. We assumed that existing players were already aware of the terms as they had played in our casino prior to receiving email offers. Montana's solution was in favor of the player in this instance, so we are taking steps to prevent confusion in the future.
I have made a couple of new coupons this week and have included all terms physically on the coupon ... ie, as part of the actual graphic so we don't have a similar issue again. This ensures that even if the coupons are saved separately from the email that the terms are always attached.
But with this said ... I am happy to take bets on how long it will be before a player crops the terms off the graphic and tries to claim they were never there in the first place.
My bet is a few weeks!
Jetset ... we've tried to call you several times, left a message with a family member, sent you our number, emailed & pm'd you, but you seem to be avoiding us everywhere but this public board? The more information that gets sent to me about you & your position in the industry, the less it appears that your concern is the players ... you seem to only care about players who have issues with RTG casino's?
I'm taking the complaints on this board very seriously, as they deserve - you do not need to point out to us how serious it is when players have concerns with the stability of a company. All but Florst28 has been solved (age verification issue which I am working on). And obviously Dirk isn't happy with the mediated solution either, but there's nothing further I can do about that.
Your concern for the wellbeing of the players is admirable, however you have been given the opportunity to discuss the situation verbally and have not bothered to return phonecalls or emails. There are certain details that I am not comfortable discussing on a chat board as they involve a third party - not all sensitive issues are financial, despite what you seem to think. If you care so much about the players as you claim to, I would have thought you would be going out of your way to find out as much as you can with our open offer to contact you, but instead you ignore our messages and don't return our calls?
Let us know if you change your mind and want to chat - we'll be happy to pay for the international phonecall if that's why you are avoiding calling us back ...
