Vegas Villa took all my money

[daveos]

No way did I fake that screenshot, im not stupid enough to think a large
casino group like Fortune would fall for a bit of editing.

Sirus is right the damned offer kept changing, when I signed up it was as per screenshot , after it had changed to 'Buy $1000 get $500 free.
Then it changed back to the $500 match offer.

I resent being called a cheat, I have never tried to cheat a casino nor would I be daft enough to try.

I wish I had never seen the darned offer now.

& as for calling me an 'evil player' (hhcfreebie) that's just plain insulting.

Bryan I don't know what your take is on this, but I can assure you that I did not alter that screenshot in any way.

some people have been given the bonuses for the buy $500 get $1000.

Why they have chosen to fight this one is beyond me.

If you did alter it, you didn't make a good job of it!

I think someone on the Fortune Lounge side was monitoring their stats to this link and tried tricking a few people into this 100% offer that they later claimed didn't exist (the players often got the 20% instead and the casino sometimes denied knowledge of the offer).

Remember that the 200% offer was up on the same link for a few days before this. It had just been changed the day before this guy signed up (from reading the forums). The casino may have been inundated with bonus hunters and were trying to get back at them.

Look at the picture casino meister posted.
"Purchase 500 and geget a 500 bonus", It's obvious that someone copy the "500" and "and get" then try to past these words over "1000 and get". Unfortunately there is more space than the words he pasted so he got the "geget" instead of a clean "get".
I have no idea of whether Fortune room ran those crazy promotions or not, but the screenshot is 100% wrong.
Recently I had a dispute with diamond casino. I signed through an exclusive offer and they only credit a tiny bonus instead. I contact the portal owner as well as the casino. it took awhile but they eventually corrected the mistake and granted me the full amount.
My experience with FL group is okay so far and I can't imagine they have to lure new players by faking promotions. Sign up promotions is just a one shot deal, if they screw new players on the sign up promotion how can they expect them to come back?
I'd like to see what FL has to say about this mass...

The screenshot I attached is 100% real.
But I think that bonus was a mistake.
I took 50% bonus for $1000 deposit a few days later, and finally cashed-in $1900 fortunately.
I am satisfied with their generous 50% bonus and quick payout, but I just wanted to show they were offering more generous(crazy) bonus before.
There is no reason to fabricate the screenshot to insult them because I am fond of FL group a lot.
Kudos for FL !

The screenshot I sent was 100% genuine, to tell the honest truth I would not even know how to go about editing a screenshot even if I wanted to!

If the proper offer at the time I joined had said 'Buy $1000 & get $500 free' then I would have still gone for that as it's still a damned good offer.

In an e-mail to fortune I even offered to deposit an extra $500 to avail myself of what they said was the 'proper' offer at the time, but this was turned down.

This is the 1st run-in I have ever had with an on-line casino & hopefully the last!

Obviously some people on this forum have made up their mind that I am not telling the truth in this matter, well there is no real rabbit I can pull out of the hat to prove that I am, all I can say that the night I joined the
promotion kept on changing from the offer I joined at & the 'Buy $1000 get $500 free' offer.

Apart from taking a lie detector test I guess there is not much more I can do to prove myself innocent !

 

[Casinomeister]

Please note that I have not accused anyone of being a fraudster, dishonest, or whatever. I posted the screen shots to show what should have appeared on the site.

This is still being checked into.

Hi All,

We have been looking at this issue and believe we have come to an understanding of what we think happened here. This was an offer which was actually created for Got2Bet, but a technical glitch caused it to appear on other sites as well. It had a different offer than intended at first, and was changed about a day later. However, those who had viewed the offer earlier still had old graphics in the cache (Happened to someone else as well) and in the $500 for $500 case, the first $500 was actually the old graphic - it should have been $1000.The original offer that Yoshimura posted was the first offer which actually was a mistake but was honored to those who had accepted it by that time. This offer was subsequently changed to the $1000 get $500 offer... and then finally the other technical glitch was fixed and only those going through Got2Bet still had that offer, while the rest of the sites reflected the offer they were supposed to have in the first place. No $500 for $500 offer ever existed. Fortune Lounge acted correctly in telling Daveos there was no such offer. We believe that this is what happened and we will give Daveos the benefit of the doubt.
Regards,

Chad

I will back up this account of the events. Yoshimura's screenshot was the first offer. Daveos' screenshot was almost certainly legit but was the result of cached graphics - had he wanted to doctor it I am quite certain he could have done a much better job of it LOL.

Anyhow, I think if FL now honor the offer with Daveos that we can consider this issue closed.
