Fruit Machine Chat

Ok. Mrs away last weekend so had a few mates round. Usual beers, takeaway , movie , fifa 12 etc etc and the clocks ticking 1 am. Happened to browse the channels and come across the live roulette on sky. Now I like a bit of roulette on FOBT and the casino but have never bothered with this

Joined up, £200 deposited between us, matched to £400. Ok, 10k needs to be wagered before we can withdraw, fair enough, nothing for free in this life.

After a rollercoaster ride, £1700 withdrawn at 4am, 10k wagered. Withdrawal said ' pending' , no surprise I guess being first time player and we left it at that.

Its now Tuesday and it still says 'pending'. Called them, left on hold 14 mins only to be told withdrawal declined as to high a % of our spins were covering more than 24 numbers which is classed as a 'low stake' . Despite the fact , towards the end they were £500 spins where numerous numbers were uncovered.

Now , it does state this in the terms section 17.1.5.something or other so I now have to do battle again and wager another 4k covering 24 numbers or less each spin.

Disappointed as I read up on the wager requirements , saw the 10k aND thought that was that.

Anyone else encountered a similar scenario?

can you not just go red or black till you meet the required stake amount and hope you don't get a very unlucky run?


i learned my lesson taking online casino match bonuses and never accept them anymore. betfred throw them at you to the extent where you don't even have to enter a code when you deposit , you just get a pop-up to tick!

No that isn't allowed as you are covering all outcomes.

i meant just bet black or red not both.

i guess so. logging in later. will report back!

isn't that disgusting .

playing roulette is one thing (and thats another thread entirely ) ,,,,,,,,,,,,, but being told how to bet ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ???????????? ,,,,,,, surely thats illegal ? despite any terms and conditions you may have sign'd ?

surely theres laws , or a governing body or something .



and how can the match up bonus be considered a bonus , when they expect you to play 10k worth of throughput ,,,,?


disgusting ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, if i even considered playing roulette ,,,,,,,,,,, it wouldn't be with them.

hopefully they allow the red or black bet to qualify the withdrawal and if so you're way ahead of the game with 4k left to stake.... considering what you started with.

i'd be confident you'd cash out a fair amount of what's left going for level stakes, say 50 or 100 quid bets.

providing you don't hit the kind of bullshit bad runs that get reported on here every now and again from fobts.

Ok. Started with 1700 quid. Up to 2800 but carried on , down to 1100. Ended up withdrawing 1700 which, as before is ' pending'. About 12 k wagered. The best win was 14 with 35 quid on it , the worst was 2 x 600 bets which Lost. Rollercoaster stuff . Hopefully withdrawal will be successful and that will be that.

Check carefully what is and isn't allowed before you carry on. All these things have t's and c's that you have to abide by to get your money out.

Back in the early days of online casinos it was possible to make a lot of easy money from the casino sign up bonuses. It revolved around playing Blackjack statistically perfectly and working through the bonus requirements. It was particularly well "abused" by a group from Denmark (for anyone interested - http://www.askgamblers.com/why-danish-p ... inos-n4935)

Bottom line, play by the rules of the bonus, and don't let any pending win end up being given back to the casino!

A matched £200 stake, then £10,000 to withdraw? That's rather harsh. I don't use Jackpot Joy any more, but when I signed up to them, they matched £15 so that I had £30 then only needed to wager £60 before I could withdraw. So basically, your initial £15 then another £30, plus their matched £15 equals £60. The one other thing that you had to do though was enter in your passport number. Once all that's done, then you're free to withdraw.

Withdrawal accepted, just need to provide an array of id via email before they send me a dollar so should get it in time for Xmas.

i played on a casino the other day

signed up and was forced a bonus!! no box to click or anything to refuse it..

i put £25 on and it trebled it.

within a few spins on a game i managed to get to £300..

the conditions of the bonus ment i had to wager around £300..

by the time id managed to satisfy the bonus conditions i had £25 in the account.

i saw it coming due to not getting any wins above the stake amount for the entire £300.. i finished up by having one spin with the whole of the "cash" on 17.. then emailing them to close my account.. load of shit

this kind of stuff winds me right up.

they'll reel you in with a deposit bonus that is rarely achievable without divine intervention or the blessing of some kind hearted ultragranny, never questioning you for i.d when depositing either, then when it comes to withdrawals it's like you're on the interpol most wanted list for international money laundering atrocities.

it's just a pathetic attempt to stall you and probably saves them a nice few quid from all the people who can't be arsed to eff about who simply replay till they lose instead.

other offenders Mansion, and Betfred to name a couple, i've experieced the same ridiculous i.d requests.

good payers include laddies and partygaming , i'm usually squared up within 48hrs off these two.

I d scanned in so hopefully will get cash soon. To be honest , I thought the wheel waa much better than any online or bookie roulette. Our numbers came in regularly and we had some massive decent runs of numbers. 2 bad spins however and you are down a k or so!

Withdrawal finally approved last night. What a hassle.
