I found this one last week and I do not believe it is part of the virtual group. This one seems to be based in the UK (not sure where the evil virtual group is) and I downloaded and played there with their generous 150% signup bonus. They also have numerous reload bonuses, etc. Their comps work very simply too, 1 point for every $1000 wagered (makes it easy to keep track of your wagering), and each point is worth $1. Minimum of 10 required to convert.
The BEST part about this bonus is that it is NOT the typical wager-on-slots-only bonus. You can play just about anything with it! The only banned games are Craps, Roulette & Baccarat! I played a bunch of 100 hand vp for a penny a hand (and you can double up at this level), some slots I think, and some caribbean 21 ($5 max). Did well on everything I played and the response time for the games is lightning fast, unlike alot of other RTG casinos (why do some have such a LONG delay when playing 100 hand vp?? I don't trust that, since those are also the ones that I never get a good hand playing that game either). Wagering requirements are 15x which I exceeded easily. Withdrew my deposit and a bit of a profit, but haven't received it yet.
I was going to wait until I got the cashin and then do a writeup of my experience there (anticipating a recommendation). I will give them a big thumbs up for their support. They have telephone support people who are friendly, helpful and knowledgable. They very quickly told me how much I wagered and how much more I needed to wager. Emails were answered within about 2-3 mins! Including after cashout when they requested a copy of photo ID and utility bill (have those scanned in and ready to email), and I emailed them as attachements. They replied almost immediately to tell me they were received and approved and my cashin would be processed in the 4-7 days stated on the website.
I expect it to hit neteller monday or tuesday, since I cashed in on thursday. I'll keep you all posted, but right now they seem to be a great outfit. I'll be VERY happy if this turns out to be as good as it seems so far, since I love the RTG software and would love to have one run by real good management. If their cashins were faster, they'd be pretty much purrfect (couldn't resist!).
