I got escorted out of a British Telecom building once because, rather naively but mainly due to laziness, i asked one of the members of staff could i borrow their swipe card to go out of the building for a smoke. Ooops. Me included, we're all just sitting one click away from a disgruntled employee releasing all the ID theft tools that someone needs. Some casinos ask you to email the docs. Yes, unencrypted emailing of all this. Why are they not being hit? I do feel a bit of sympathy for casinos - they've had to try and adapt fast to these regulations - previously they were just the guys who sold you the games etc, now their being asked to be forensic accountants, auditors, psychological profilers for RG...but at the same time, if Casumo can see fit to pay for expensive TV Adverts but not to train their staff, then that's on them. Trying to do it so fast though now, that they're making so many mistakes. And i was just gonna go and ask them for a 100% depo match. Oh well, that's that idea out the window

Not played it man, who's it by? I've been playing the Netent Vikings though
-
That's the thing man - me asking where my 12.50 Redbet bonus is has probably set off the Responsible Gambling Batsignal! Re their systems - the notice basically says they don't have any. They don't monitor customers, keep records or perform risk assessments. Instead? They ask for Selfies.

PS i appear to have merged HTML5 and the UKGC thread responses
-
Some have made the HTML transition fine and tbh i hardly see a difference but there are some where the whole game feels different. Apparently they can't change the maths models or it'd need to go through testing/certification again - I'd be interested to know which one's did go through this - Netent have said none of theirs have which would imply they're the same...but i must admit the brain picks up on patterns and some are just too obvious to not notice. HTML5 was meant to make slot experiences better, not worse Re the GC and the checks - it wouldn't happen but one thing it would do i stop the varying casino practices currently on the go. Some casinos interpreting it one one, some doing another. And quite frankly i'd rather, if i chose to submit the info, have it with the GC and not some of the casinos. The decision note re Casumo is interesting and for me tells it all - the staff at Casumo, including the MLRO (Money Laundering Reporting Officer) were not trained....now sorry, but this has always been an issue with some casinos. They contact you saying 'we are required to do this' - when i've went back and said NO, that's now how it is, they just kept repeating the same thing. Therefore, no wonder the practices across casinos vary when even the MLRO isn't sufficiently trained. Leads to the next question - if they're not even trained in the basics, how on earth are they in a position to review sensitive data to ensure compliance. Clue - they're not. And that's even before we go into whether they're trained in Data Protection etc. I'm not laughing at the consequences - they've recommended beefing up compliance teams so prepare for a Tsunami of requests. I just hope they've trained their staff before they do so otherwise the exercise is pointless. I might offer my services as i'm a member of the Risk Management Institute Anyone wishing to fire me 100 euro will be exempt from the diligence

Casumo and Videoslots have been naughty boys - https://www.theguardian.com/business/2018/nov/29/online-casinos-fined-14m-amid-watchdog-crackdown Queue the over reaction by many a casino, more intrusive requests into peoples lives, more judgement calls on if someone has a gambling issue. CZ Holdings is Dr Vegas...who ceased business earlier this year. Here's an idea - if the UKGC is obsessed with RG/SOW, they should do the checks. Then it will all be honky dorey.

See, this is what RB is missing...giving me ginormous bonus rounds of just over 100x Novibet must have heard me - 12th spin
-
I'm the opposite to Afi - pound for pound, if you were to give me a game in 'an OK' mood for wagering, I'd pick IR. From 2X quid, via a 4 reeler in Betat once, i managed to clear 5k of wagering. Takes 50 off you, gives you 90. Takes 90 gives you 130 - when i plays in a good mood. Sadly, the HTML version is horrific. not rigged, just awful to play. And it's not as loose as it was 3 or so years ago. Nothing beats a 1.20 in Amber bonus and seeing Sarah and Wilds doubled up - screen flashing red.....bootiful
-
I actually depo 50 and it was 25% - so 12.50 If it was a 192k withdrawal then yeah, my bad... Novibet will be happy because i've been known to cut my nose off to spite my face, so they're going to lose 5k of Bonanza related bust outs for the price of two packets of cigs, so I'll just shift it there I feel an Afi moment coming on
-
My 37 spins came off a 117. Just kept dropping in....(slightly disappointing 1500x as the multiplier got up to 32 and I got a retrigger to make it 42) Best base game hit was 400x plus on the 117k - red rubies
-
Another awful one was Girls with Guns. Almost felt embarrassed playing it. Lord knows how 32 Reds still in business peddling that nonsense...maybe people still play them. Scary.
-
Iv actually had 13 to 15 4 reel WDs, albeit the last one was 18 months or so ago. Best return was on 90p, just over two k It is a mighty fine sight just waiting to see the symbols. Last one was the lowest you could get. 9 10 J :-/ But yeah, you’re not missing much :-)

Quite funny....apparently, had my original deposit reached absolute zero before i did another one it would have been fine to give it to me BUT......i re-deposited with 2p from the original deposit, and which carried through until the withdrawal later on. I have certain admiration for that response - strictly speaking yes, a withdrawal was made with some of the original funds and so strictly speaking it was forfeited but come on.... This happened to me at Slotsmillion and Novibet before. It was credited in seconds. Pretty sure i never had to go to one line in Book of Dead to zero. Had it been a major issue i would have applied more attention...lesson being - if your bonus doesn't credit either A. Don't deposit anymore or B. Go to Book of Dead for a 1p bet Reminds me of the old carrying forward of 1p to new deposits that attracted 2k wagering still to do.

Don't worry Valdes, not a complaint, just a moan, as it was only for a 50 quid bonus. I like Redbet and every week i normally take their match bonus for a stab on Bonanza. Few times I've cashed out with the bonus funds, so it's been lucky enough... Anyway - Tuesday at 1pm i took it. It never credited. I'd to email them the screenshot of where i got the bonus...eh?...so it took them to today to get back to me. Between that deposit i made another 3 in a row. No withdrawals and then on the 4th I got some bonanza related pays. I asked them could have have the bonus funds from the Tuesday 1pm depo. Am i being unreasonable here...their response was that, because i made a withdrawal, i have forfeited the bonus funds. My view is that...had the bonus been given when it should have been, because i bust out, i would have been using it straightaway. Plus, the withdrawal didn't come from deposit, it came from the 4th. The terms say that if you withdraw, forfeit the bonus...but i didn't withdraw from that bonus attached deposit.

Think MG funnelled all their Research and Development expenditure into their fancy new offices on the Isle of Man To think of the classics Thunderstruck/Avalon/BDBA etc to stuff like Suntide....Cool Buck. PNG throw out a lot of tosh but least they throw in the decent one. Poor MG are stuck on rubbish mode.

So if a casino has Angola as restricted, I'm from there, and then move to the UK for work for 2 years I still would be restricted? Never knew that - thought it was the local. Take Guts for example: 5.1.4 You are a resident in a jurisdiction which allows gambling; - 5.1.5 You are not a resident in a Restricted Jurisdiction; Surely if you move to the UK you're resident there and therefore 5.1.5 wouldn't apply as you're no longer in Angola for example?I know, tax wise, you can be resident in two places for example but that's Tax...5.1.4/5 actually look like they're saying the same thing. Probably best to check as i'm none the wiser

Anyone have problems with payouts from casino moons?
pinnit2015 replied to MarkM's topic in Online Slot Discussions
A casino who pays? What next? An actual, not fake, Moon Landing? -
There is the odd decent QS game but you need to bet big to win big i think. But yeah, that would make you give up the slots forever! Oh contraire, i think MG are now inferior to most software providers. Talk about living off past glories - have you seen their recent game, Pollen something. It's one of the worst slots i've played. Single provider casinos are on their way out i think. People don't want to be casino hoping across 3 joints to play 3 games.

BTG are releasing Who Wants to be a Millionaire across all MG/SG casinos today. GAMBLE, yes like extra Chilli, to win the max 50 spins or take the 8 at the start. It's like Extra Chilli. I hate Extra Chilli. Quite an odd release - very dated licence in a show that started in the 90's. Been one person confirmed who got to the 50 spins and got a, quite frankly, awful 400 X win. Personally I won't be playing it and here's hoping the new, non Megaways, engine to be released in 2019 by BTG is better than some of their god awful releases. No buy feature, which is a plus. I do find it odd that the GC clamps down on autospins but allows this spin gamble nonsense but ho hum.
