frankly speaking quite opposite... bonus spend is the first thing cut when margin tightens because its the only cost they can switch off overnight what you get instead is more cashback and more loyalty points. cheaper for them, feels like something, doesn't need a big headline

crypto casinos run the exact same bonus mechanics. thats where the 450% at 40x in the OP came from

thats a sticky bonus and its the worst product in the industry.. you see non-sticky, your deposit stays yours and you can withdraw whenever you like. sticky, the two are welded together until wagering clears. same word on the button for both @sufferinsilence for what its worth thats not you...

thats basically right and worth putting numbers on. 100 in, 450 bonus, 550 to turn over at 40x is 22,000 of wagering. on a 96% slot the house expects to keep about 880 of that over the long run. your bonus was 450 they're not selling you 450 quid. they're selling you the feeling of it and buying...

bit that gets me is the sheer volume. a quarter of everything going into the commission's contact center is this one issue that's not a handful of operators being sloppy. that's the standard way the industry has decided to do it

fair, that's a proper distinction and i skipped over it the software behavior is what i'd still flag though. real time enforcement of a max bet is trivial to build. every operator that doesn't build it has made a choice about that

the point is you can now finish. thats not nothing. before january the maths on a 40x meant most people never got near the end. but the max bet clause is the one that worries me far more than the cashout cap, and it's worth knowing why. the cap costs you money you never had. a max bet breach...

two smaller operators have pulled out of the uk entirely already, lottomatrix and small screen casinos. that's the part that concerns me more than the pricing. fewer licence holders means less competition, less competition means nobody has to compete on RTP or terms. tax squeezes the margin and...

@Scott1baird your instinct is probably right and roulette is actually the wrong game to spot it on, the maths there is fixed by the wheel. slots is where they have actual room to move. numbers are worse than people realise. a slot at 95% costs you 5p on every pound you put through it. drop that...

Fair enough, I'll leave it as disputed then rather than repeat a number i cant stand behind. Thing that should actually worry people on that game isn't the max win anyway, its the RTP versions. default is around 96.2 but there are lower builds in circulation at 94.2, 91.2, 87.2 and 84.2. eighty...

@paul7388 where are you getting 60,000x, I've seen it listed at 40,000x. that's not a rounding difference that's a completely different game

@Steven93 you redeem without playing. the account stays open for withdrawals until the 14th, you just cant spin anymore after the 24th. two separate dates doing two separate jobs. worth saying the operator statement muddied this themselves, they described it as closing the brand on 24 aug while...

@Downsman pretty good question and the honest answer is it's harder than it should be. On UK licensed sites the RTP has to be displayed in the game info/paytable, usually accessible from the menu inside the game. Look for the "i" or the rules screen and it'll state the theoretical RTP. If it...

Yeah @Mallorca that's real pain for the UK players in here. Feature buys have been banned on UKGC licensed sites since 2019. So if you're playing Dog House or AFK Airport Security on a UK licensed casino you physically won't have the buy option. If you do have the buy button, you're on an...

Worth being precise on the nambers because there's some confusion in here already. The Dog House Megaways 1000 runs 96.5% RTP on the top version, medium volatility, 25,000x max. The original Dog House Megaways was high volatility with a 12,305x cap. So @Steven93 has it right. max win roughly...
