Casoola

[Batters61]

I play mostly at Playojo, with some at Party Poker.

I recently got an email from Casoola with a 25% bonus. I normally ignore these, but took the offer won a bit lost a bit and decided to forfeit the bonus. so far so good. I ended up playing on and after a grind finished exactly level. I decided to withdraw at this stage, which I do at the end of any session so that I am not tempted to go back.  I was disappointed to find that they charge a fee to withdraw, its already hard enough to win in any case bit then to be charged extra on top was just disappointing. 

Will stick with Ojo from no on.....

Just read your comment about genesis charging a fee mate, i agree its annoying to the player. But the reason they charge a fee is due to tax in the UK. Many casinos have started going this way and even some have lowered the RTP on some lots to cover this. Example Videoslots lowered the RTP and allow one free withdrawal a day then charge the player after. I used to play on OJO but the do not offer good bonuses. Cassola give bonus after bonus to the players. Think in time we will all be paying to withdraw in the end.

Yeah 2.49% with a minimum of 2.99 and a max of 19.99. I think it’s a bit tight personally, but I did used to pay 2.50 for withdrawals on Videoslots, although they give the first one free daily and it’s nowhere near as bad as 19.99. I think even if one is free it softens the blow a bit. 
 

I try to include things like this in all the Casino Reviews because I know it can put players off so even if you don’t want to use the links but you plan to play at a Casino listed on this site there’s an info box at the top of all the reviews with fees, payment methods and support times so it’s always helpful to have a look. Aside from that I know most Casinos have FAQs nowadays and Withdrawal Qs are usually there and it will normally notify you of fees so it’s good to check those first too. I’m hoping moving forward things like this will have to be clearly displayed on the Registration pages because even though I don’t really mind myself, I think it’s important for people to know.

Cheers Chloe, I know that is it up front and I should have known, its just shit that the casino already has an edge and then takes a little bit more. 

Ed, I didn't know about the tax thing, that's new to me. 

I think I will vote with my feet, I don't tend to take bonuses as the wagering makes it hard to get to a withdrawal, its just a bit of fun for me and I don't want it to feel tarnished.
