NEW ONLINE CASINOS FROM RTG & PLAYTECH
Recent arrivals from Playtech
and RTG
The first of our newbie online casinos this week carries a range
of financial instruments that illustrates what a wide choice is open to players
in financing their online gambling. Amber Coast Casino offers Neteller
Instacash, Moneybookers, MyCitadel and Citadel, 900Pay, Navaho eWallet Express,
Ecocard, UseMyBank and Instadebit through which players can gamble in dollars,
Euros or GBP on the good quality 60+ download casino games on offer. However,
read the T&Cs carefully as there are restrictions on what currencies can be
used from various countries. The site is cleanly designed and well laid out, with
a loyalty program, full 24/7 Support and a typically Playtech range of bonuses.
But what are hopefully teething problems earlier this week indicate that players
need to be cautious on the bonus front, as the management pulled some questionable
"bonus abuser" disqualifications. The licensing is through Curacao in
the Netherlands Antilles, and the holding company has the rather provocative title
Nameguard Holding Inc, a subsidiary of Amber One International NV. It is understood
that Amber One's parent of the same name is a European group. The onsite blurb
says that fair gaming is assured by the OPA, which many Internet gambling experts
do not feel is a credible entity.
Latest from the RTG studios is the quaintly
named JV8Casino, a Costa Rican based entity that also owns a sportsbook.
The site does not contain sufficient information by today's standards but is professionally
if sparsely presented with Support facilities and a pretty standard range of financing
options. The lack of upfront information, and a tendency for the software to start
downloading without so much as a by-your-leave is disappointing. As at going to
press there had been no response to our emails requesting more information on
this operation.
