upon visiting the link provided – and after answering a page of questions about where I play, and don’t; I get the message: you are not qualified to receive the free bonus.
this is either a creative affiliate who is in turn pissing off players by making it look like Belle Rock misleads people (its players) in order to get some cheasy poll from them; or its actually by BR in which case; you need to look at the promises made in your letter; and then from a player’s POV; ask yourself is this how I want my company to be viewed? as so cheap they won’t give out the $ promised.
Everybody gets emails promising “you might be a winner ….”
I never pay any attention to them; but when it says, and I quote:
We want you to tell us how to we can improve the product and service we offer you. And for your input,
we will deposit 50 FREE CREDITS into a gaming account of
YOUR CHOICE.
there is little doubt left that anybody who has ever played one of your casinos; is qualified to answer the poll, and get their $50.
I suggest you investigate this to the fullest; and if it is an affiliate; that you make it clear for them, and to everybody else that RB will not tolerate these kinds of tricks.
IF this letter was not directly from BR, then they are ONLY to blame if they don’t follow up and address the matter with the aff involved. It hurts all of us in the end because any time you trick, fool, or mislead a surfer; you further install the “i don’t trust the internet” attitude.
