Yes, I can confirm they have the 'new' section 16's where you can double the jackpot and win 1k. By astra.
I won 1k on Friday but the coins never came out, they rolled about inside for ages, went down a chute into a box which went round on a carousel in a locked room for 16 hours and then were sent to Rome where they were given to DHL (don't hurry lads!) and put back on a flight to Thiefrow, and the flight got cancelled so they didn't arrive until this morning, the box was put back into the secure room and went round on the carousel for another 12 hours, and UPS (unpleasant parcel stealers) delvered it to me a hour ago, and all the turning on the carousel had rubbed them down to faceless smooth brassy 5p-sized blanks.
So don't bother.

not to worry cashino ,i know a place that has an old astra that will take the 5 p sized blank as a 2 pound coin,thus enabling a staggering return on your defaced booty haul. :wink:
