Lucky Nugget casino Welcome bonus OMG!

[jshort]

5.7.4 Where a Sign-Up Bonus has been granted to you, subject to you being required to have met all wagering requirements, you will be limited to a maximum withdrawal value of 6 times your first deposit amount and any remaining balance will be forfeited. This clause will only be applied at the discretion of casino management. All progressive wins are exempt from this clause

And then there's this;

The Sign-Up Bonus granted to you must be played through 100 times (100 X) before you will be able to withdraw any winnings made using the bonus money portion of your balance. ("Play through Requirement"). For example, if you deposit 100 and receive a 100 credit bonus, the Play through Requirement will be 100 x 100 = 10000. Any winnings attributed to the Cash portion of your balance can be withdrawn at any time, subject to meeting all of these terms and conditions

And although I couldn't find it, they also have another rule which isn't listed on their T&Cs. Basically for any winnings you get, a certain portion is allocated to your Bonus balance and must be wagered 100 times. How much gets allocated to the bonus balance depends on the proportion of your bonus funds to your cash funds. Ex. You play BDBA and you have $100 CASH and $100 BONUS....If you win $1000 off of any wager, then $500 gets allocated to your BONUS balance because 50% of your money is bonus money!

I don't know where you saw that

Lucky Nugget is now part of the Palace Group - and all their welcome bonuses have WR of Bx50.
I just double-checked it myself - and that's what it still says. (Though I have to say I did see some odd wording in there which needs "tidying up" IMO).
It doesn't matter about the 50/50 split with Real & Bonus money - you can't withdraw until you complete the WR anyway, at which point it all becomes withdrawable.

The 6 x deposit limit has been in their rules a long time and has been discussed here before.
This is a prime example of why ALL players should ALWAYS read the T&Cs anywhere they are thinking of playing. Some may find these terms acceptable, while others may not. No-one is forcing anyone to play there or take their bonuses.- we each have to decide where & what to play.

Curiously I was told in chat that their WR is x50 Bonus too, however with the whole division of winnings going into either bonus or cash balance (depending on the proportion of bonus/cash in ones balance), its fairly irrelevant and makes it virtually impossible to withdraw even if you hit big.

I just double-checked it myself - and that's what it still says

The banking section in Lucky Nugget and sister sites (I played Jackpot City daily before UK law changes) will allow you to withdraw at any time thus forfeiting any bonus balance.

Not so bad if you've take a 'daily deposit bonus' of say 25% but quite a 'decisions, decisions' moment if its a scenario as above, cos you mind then starts to tell you that the wagering is in the bag as long as you get a 'keeping me level' kind of play.

I hit a 4-reel WD on IR once after just accepting 50% bonus, one half of the £607.50 was cash the other half bonus, but I checked and it did offer me the option of W/D the cash portion.

I do apologise if this has changed since they joined the Palace Group, however all my previous accounts are now migrated or gone altogether so i can't check if its changed but certainly worth checking

The Sign-Up Bonus granted to you must be played through 100 times (100 X) before you will be able to withdraw any winnings made using the bonus money portion of your balance. ("Play through Requirement"). For example, if you deposit 100 and receive a 100 credit bonus, the Play through Requirement will be 100 x 100 = 10000. Any winnings attributed to the Cash portion of your balance can be withdrawn at any time, subject to meeting all of these terms and conditions.

This is at Mummy's Gold, and there are several Goggle hits for this on "The Sign-Up Bonus granted to you must be played through 100 times (100 X)" at various Bayton properties. Maybe some have not specified that this only applies to a particular country, and so it is being seen as an overall term.

Some other terms have become rather "nasty" there too, when compared to the terms I was familiar with when I played a while ago, and before UK players were all ejected.

The max bet is no longer a simple 25% or 30% of the bonus, but €8 per bet and 0.50c per line irrespective of the size of the bonus. This puts players who claim large bonuses in a much worse position than before, but could be more friendly to those taking smaller bonuses as €8 could be greater than 25%.

The one sign up bonus across the whole group has now been extended to cover the resulting conglomerate, which is bound to catch out players who still think Palace Group, Belle Rock, and Fortune Lounge are still separate independent operations.

It seems that they have taken the worst terms from each of the three groups and applied them across the board to the enlarged conglomerate, making a whole that is worse than any of the three parts it came from.

Luckily for UK players, this no longer concerns them.

These terms also seem far worse than those found at any of the UK facing 15% tax paying casinos, yet by leaving the UK, they have avoided both the 15% tax and having to adjust their operations to comply with a new set of rules. Either they are greedy, or they have "thrown the baby out with the bathwater" by dumping their UK players, and now find they are struggling to keep their liquidity up from a reduced pool of eligible players.

That shows a different set of terms to those on Mummy's Gold, yet they are all in the same group now. It's also dated August 2011, so I suspect these are out of date, and it's now what I found on the Mummy's Gold site, where it's no longer a max bet of 30% of bonus, but €8 and 50c.
