Mike got an e-mail today from Irish Luck, that he has a free bonus of 37,50 to play on the one million BC progressive slot ( only allowed to play that game, or any winnings will be void)

Oh well, we logged in and there are NO progressives available.

A member on my forum ( member is from UK) also does not see progressives at Irish luck and got the e-mail too,
he just posted that live chat told him, progressives are only for US players.

Well, I looked at Vegas Regal and Slot Power, no progressives in my account.

At Sloto Cash I still see them, (well they have always been diffrent, thanks god)

However, its ok if we may not play the progressives, BUT then please, do not offer such a free bonus to players who cannot play it, like Irish Luck did.

Well what the support said, that the progressives are only available to US players is not true, since another member from Finland was able to play the bonus on the Million Reels BC at Irish Luck,

This is again all very confusing, and support seems again not telling facts.

I am from the Netherlands and am eglible for promos at Vegas Regal, Slot Power, i.e.
and I do not see the progressive slots there.

Mike is from the Netherlands, got the e-mail from Irish Luck for this 10 free spins bonus on the slot and he cannot play it.

A UK member got the e-mail from Irish Luck and cannot play it.

So what is really going on?


Hope we can get some answers

Thanks in advance
Marina

Friend of mine from germany can see the progressive slots at Irish Luck too

now we got that reply

Dear Mike
Following up on your email.

Im sorry to inform you, but progressive slots are normally only available
to US player, therefore you are not seeing the new slot game.
However we will forward a request to the promotional manager for further
review once done you will be contacted by email.
Thank you for understanding.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us again.

Sincerely,
Nathan
Irish Luck Customer Service

LOL, I give up on this,
I just dont like the players I sent experience such things.
This is not good at all.

I'll have a talk with some folks to find out what the REAL answer is. I don't understand why progressives wouldn't be available to everyone. Makes absolutely no sense at all.

ATTENTION:
The answer to this question has been the same for 2 months..

ANYONE WHO PLAYS IN USD can play progressives.

If you choose another currency- the progressive slots are not available.

Players may change currency, but need to contact support and be careful
if asked to make a 2nd account. The 2nd account can put you in the Rival auto bonus block system.
That would require a manager account review at every new Rival....

Yes.. people make "dumb" awful, unprofessional and lazy moves in this business daily.. amazes me every day in every way.

Indeed, players want to think about as much as most affiliates... not much.

However, this is probably a lack of coding, not a business model.

I really can't imagine this being a 'lack of coding'. Here's why:

They would have to code the software to 'explicitly accept only US money' for progressives. Not the other way around.

So - in order to make this happen, the coders would have had to run a 'check currency' routine before showing progressives. Then use a statement like:

If (currency = USDollars) then
ShowProgressives()
else
NoProgressives-NahNahBooBoo()
end if

And please,
finally possible that the support is telling facts,
its not true how they said in that case, Only US players may play the progressives.

The other thing,
please find a way to exclude players who are not eglible from receiving such bonus offers via e-mail.

I tell you now something:

When Rivals came online, I signed up at Da vinci, paradise 8, this is vegas and cocoa.
In the early days, Netherlands was allowed for promos there.
Well, I did deposit a few times at all 4 casinos.
Then 1 day, I got an e-mail from da vinci, telling a free bonus is in my account. I went to look and there was no bonus.
Support then updated me, that Netherlands is not allowed for bonuses anymore ( BUT, I got the e-mail)
Well, I am not a whiner about not getting a bonus, but this made me mad and I did close my account there.

Now, imagine how many more did, or doing that.

I really think a few things needs to be fixed urgently at Rival Casinos.
