Since building the music studio and cutting down my gambling to a minimum its occured to me how tight rival have become with free chips and not just VRC... anyone else noticed this recently?

There was a time with rivals where I could deposit what ever amount i wanted from the minimum $25 through to $100's and the thing I always appreciated and knew them for was if I lost my deposit its not "game over" because I knew that a day or so later I would be granted with a free chip which gave a "second chance" to win or at least gain some of my deposit back...

Nowadays theres nothing, not the slightest thing. Hell I can even see the tumbleweed going by.

In all rivals I have played at the promotion list is very slim... with mainly just 1 or 2 promotions with stupid bonuses (I did see a 50% bonus up to $100 with 60x WR) that I know full well I will never meet the WR so would be giving away my cash for free.

Who's stupid idea was it to try and mislead people into getting "free chips" with their new system... I mean stuff like "get 125% bonus and a $25 free chip", how dare they call it a free chip... why not just say "get 125% bonus and an extra $25 to play with". Its even worse than the "play with $1000 of our cash for an hour, if you lose you only lose our money, but if you win you "keep" it" microgaming tactic.

The games at rivals recently also play tight as hell. Free spins/features pay the lowest I have seen (wasnt there that guy here who got $0 twice in a row from free spins on cleos coins), it was only the other day when I was betting 60c a spin on atomic age and hit the car bonus... now previously this would pay $20+ for that bet value but that time it gave me a measly $4.50.

I can seriously see rival casinos becoming a sinking ship within the next year unless things seriously change

I gotten more freebies from TopGame than I have anywhere else, and I dont even deposit with that group but once in a great while.

I agree that Rivals just seem to not be giving free chips any longer.  Which is a shame.

Find a casino you trust,  ask for a free chip after your deposit. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt, because it feels like free chips are becoming a thing of the past.

I dunno, look at my recent plays outside rivals, betboo was more than $200 winnings paid (from a free chip), Many other free chips at other software providers have lasted longer recently.

If im honest I dont think theres many casinos I do trust anymore. When I start to gain trust for 1 casino they do something to lose all my trust in them

21grand are the best rival imo and only 1 i would consider dealing with again,

im treated like royalty even though all I have done is profited there (just made over $50 profit and cashed out )

the slots there still play nice like rival slots all used to and they always payout on time (just had a payment recieved, they beat VRC in withdraw times, took at max 5 days to get payout )
