I sent this in a private PM to Villento on this site 11/4 and again on 11/6 but it has gone unread so am now putting it up for players warning!
On 10/12 I got an email from Villento (see below)
After making sure it was understood I did not have a Rich reels account and the casino confirming the offer was valid for me on my Villento account. And after confirming 3 different times i was reading and understanding the email correctly I decided to use the promo. I was suppose to get a 100% bonus and the weekly 40 spins from the 52 weeks promo 1 time. Which this week was 40 on Rat Pack.
In every email or chat I had I specifically said 40 spins and nobody ever said that was wrong until after I funded! In fact right before I funded I again emailed to confirm the specific details of the promo and got a reply that did not specify any different amount of spins. See below for correspondence! I have highlighted in RED the important parts!

email did it state you would be receiving 40 Free spins.

works. Rudy was generous enough to inform you that you will still be awarded free spins. We do not usually do that. However, you do not appreciate it.

Lisa: he did not advise you he was giving you the free spins as part of the Opening Offer. That is credited by an automated system by Casino management
Frank: YES HE DID!
Lisa: The free spins he was referring to you was that of the Promotions Department.
Frank: you have a nice evening as I am done with this conversation for now
Lisa: You are most welcome
Lisa: Bye for now
============
I seem to be seeing players posting across the net lately how this casino is playing with words in their promos
and not honoring them as they should be so players beware!
On 10/12 I got an email from Villento (see below)
