Ladbrokes scratchy fun! (& screenshots)

At the end of last month I took part in Ladbrokes scratchcard promo...
I lost £61 quid in wagering £126 on King Cashalot, but the card they sent me made up for it!

Old Attachment (Invalid)

(Yes, I know they sent one from the wrong game, but who cares!)

They're running a similar promo right through October, so I decided I will carry on having a shot at it until I blow out...
This is the October schedule:-
Deposit & stake a total of at least £100 (or currency equivalent) on either Dolphin Tale, What on Earth, Cashville or Mad Hatters, depending on the week’s promotion, to qualify. The more you play the more chances you have to win...

Remember, the game promotion will alternate each week!

Games:
Dolphin Tale: 1st - 8th October
What on Earth: 9th - 15th October
Mad Hatters: 16th - 22nd October
Cashville: 23rd - 31st October
Dolphin Tale filled me with trepidation, as this slot is a killer unless you get lot's of bonus rounds (as you'll see below), but I took the plunge anyway!
(Low-rolling to minimise variance, of course!)

Oct-2nd: 350 spins, NO Features, Wagered £122, Lost £54 :eek:
But got a nice scratchcard:-

Oct-3rd: 445 spins, 5 Features, Wagered £113, Won £39
Scratchcard awarded:-

Oct-4th: 343 spins, 1 Feature (low stakes), Wagered £111, Lost £46 :eek2:
Scratchcard not so good either:-

Had a few days off...
Oct-8th: 464 spins, 7 Features!, Wagered £121, Won £20
Scratchcard awarded:-

So to-date I'm just £9 up - but I'm having FUN!!
And I haven't had a losing scratchcard.... yet! :p
Pleased to see the end of the Tale though - looking forward to What on Earth! ;)

Anybody else having a go at this promo - please feel free to join in this thread! :thumbsup:
 
Another stupid question... Do they email you the notification of the scratchies or do they show up somewhere?
Thanks!
As in my first post - you have to wager 100 on the designated slot - then they e-mail you a hyperlink to the scratchcard within the next 24hrs.

I was not expecting to do well on this slot, and I was right! :(

Oct-17th: 245 spins, 9 Cuckoo & 4 free-spin features*, Wagered £125, Won £35! :)

That's the only reason I finished ahead!

So although the week started not too bad - it ended in disaster.
That last day meant my totals were: Lost on slot £110, Scratchcard winnings £50
So 60 quid down the tubes and now just Crap-Vile to come.... :eek2:
 
Thanks for the report KK.

It's nice to know what other people are getting.

JFTR - On CASHVILLE, I've only played it 3 times this week and I have had a LOSE, 5 and 25.

I have no idea how much I have wagered. Can't be arsed to count it all up, but probably done loads. (Although I was playing 2 a spin and I got 4 BONUS symbols which paid around 350 on 2 picks). And I was 1 nudge out (like your screenie) on one of the decent 5OAK's. :D :D
 
As you can probably tell from what I call this slot - I was not expecting great things - but it turned out OK!
(Well - at first anyway...)

Oct-26th: 254 spins, 2 Features, Wagered £115, Lost £29

Oct-27th: 220 spins, 6 Features (inc £60 win), Wagered £127, won £57! :cool:

So the summary for Crap-Vile;
Playing slot lost £14 (If only I hadn't played the last 2 days... :( )
Scratchcard winnings: £100! Net gain £86!

And at the end of a whole month of nearly daily fun I finished 30 quid up, so :thumbsup: :D

Wonder what they'll have in November... ;)

PS: Did you notice Ladbrokes think CashVile is a progressive slot = typical casino not knowing their own games!
 
Scratchcard promotion is back at Ladbrokes. :D

Whooo-whooo! :thumbsup:
All on Mega-moolah - not played that much before...

I see their T&C's are still wrong; it says you must deposit & play 100 - but last time it was OK to use funds already in your account (i.e. No deposit necessary).

PS: Cheeky, what are you doing posting in the middle of the night - don't you sleep??? :what:

Sleep? What's that? You should know by now that forum whores never sleep.

In the past I've just turned over the 100 and I've received the card. So I hope anything hasn't changed there!

Hey, don't you know that I live in a part of London which is in a CMT time zone?

CASINO MEISTER TIME. :D
 
Scratchcard promotion is back again at Ladbrokes.

Every day in May and the qualifying game is LOADED! :D
Excellent news! :thumbsup:
I see they even put my avatar in the advert too! :p

My only criticism of Ladbrokes is they don't have a monthly bonus, but at least they do have these occasional fun promo's to keep the King entertained! :D

KK
 
Not a bad start for me - lol! :D
Yo! Wicked dude! :thumbsup:

Did my first 130* worth of spins last night, one poor feature & was looking disastrous until I hit a 22 win.
* Lack of self-control there - should have stopped on 101... :rolleyes:
Anyway, ended 30 down so hoping for a good card tonight....
 
You all knew this was coming....

No scratchie updates?
Keep me entertained :thumbsup:
I tell you what mate - it's promo's like this which make people want to give up gambling...
Loaded was one of my favorite slots before this! :mad:

Day 1:
Vary poor free-spins feature early on (spin 37), then nothing.
Luckily hit a 22 win near the end to avoid total disaster.
Spins: 203 . Wagered: 126 . Result: -15
Scratchcard awarded: 15

Day 2:
Poor, then nothing, then poor, then nothing. No features.
Luckily hit a 21 win near the end to avoid a worse disaster!
Spins: 240 . Wagered: 142 . Result: -40 :eek:
Scratchcard awarded: 15

Day 3: (Yesterday)
Finally - after 564 spins I got the feature - 25 won from a 1 spin.
Spins: 194 . Wagered: 109 . Result: -15
Scratchcard awarded...

I hope this is entertaining enough for you... :p
Just off to play today's spins - if my bank lasts long enough.... :(

Hey do'nt blame me :o I feel your pain KK
I admire your self discipline which enables you to quit instead of chasing your losses.
I never learnt that lesson :p

By my reckoning your actual slot payout % are;
%76 %61 %86 these offset a little from your scratchy wins
All things being equal (if only) you are due a win.
Hope your next post is full of smileys :D
What about you monkey?
I thought you were playing the promo to or are you not telling?

Yes I am, but they have been giving me the run around.

So I played the first day which was 1 May, Tuesday which was supposed to mean that I receive the scratchcard 2 May - but it did not arrive. I spoke to CS and they said there was a technical error and I did not receive the scratchcard until 3 May - fair enough, it was a nice one so wasn't too bothered.

I did not play again until 4 May, Friday which meant I should have received my scratchcard 5 May, Saturday - but it didn't turn up again! I had a few cross words with them yesterday emailing them backwards and forwards about 3 times but they still didn't send me one - so I am on a mini strike until they get act together. This is really not like Ladbrokes as normally they give a top class service - however a small minority of their CS representatives really don't have a clue what they are doing. I am not sure if that is down to not enough initial training or that they really don't give a damn. Either way, it's not good enough for a big company such as themselves.

And I don't expect to be mucked around by them with the amount of money I shove in their pockets year in, year out. :mad:

Well it got better, but not enough for smilies...
I started a day behind, so I'm gonna change to dates now:-

May-5th (Day 4):-
I think this proves that these slots do even out because I got FOUR lots of free-spins in 171 goes!
However, the first 3 were PPP: 7.20, 7.66 & 5.46 from 34p spins.
The last was a little better, giving me 38.77 from a 1 spin.
But I still made an overall loss!
Spins: 206 . Wagered: 112 . Result: -2
Scratchcard awarded: Still waiting, but it's early yet.

I agree with Cheeky about Lads CS, they can be quite poor, but I think it's just down to lack of training. Like many casinos the main managers only seem to work 9-5 weekdays, and weekends often don't appear to be as well supported.
They always seem to struggle when these promo's come around, but I guess that could partly be because they have a huge take up of the games, being probably the biggest UK online bookmaker.
 
I lost 190 in 300 worth of spins! And im 2 scratchcards down, so im really not impressed at all. this slot just sucks money...... :P

(as in i 2ce i wagered 100, but didnt get a card. so im giving up till they sort it out. and the card i did get lost ;) ).

Still no cards here for me as well! :mad:

They owe me 2 now - I gave up on the mini strike thing.

My forefinger was craving some action.
 
Well I just received one (albeit manually) - not an official one, but a copied and pasted link sent by CS.

Apparently they are not issued by Ladbrokes themselves and are mailed out by an outside company.

Ladbrokes are also stating that I should check my junk mail in case it arrived there - REALLY??!!?? I would never have thought of that, thanks soooo much for telling me. ;) FFS.

This has now put me off a bit and am wondering if I should bother with it now. A real shame coz LOADED is one of my fav slots!

Oh and just for the record:

That's better! :thumbsup:

Don't forget everyone, you can get a 25 bonus at Lads today only!
Easiest WR on the net: (D+B)x4 :cool:
(and you don't have to play Loaded!)
 
Indeed, don't forget the free 25 today! (cheers kk!).

But also, remember the T&Cs:

1. This offer does only applies to customers residing in the UK.

....... and presumably anyone not in the UK would have no idea what that means and so never got beyond this confusing term and into the games! :lolup:
 
I emailed lads, and got one saying it would be resolved within 24 hours. of course no response.

So I phoned them, and apprently the promotions department doesn't work weekends. So she sent them an "urgent" request, and said it would be sorted out this morning, first thing. Of course nothing.

I'm about 5/6 cards down now! Really poor service.... surprising from lads as well :what:
