Hi Paul
I’ve spoken to the casino managers about this and they said that the term was implemented because of severe bonus abuse from players using the stronger currencies to effectively give themselves a much bigger bank roll. For instance, there have recently been rings of players in Canada all successfully abusing the slots bonus at Spin Palace and because they were playing in GBP rather than CAD – the cost of this abuse was over twice what it would have been if they were playing in their home currency.
Please let me assure you that this term is by no means predatory and was only introduced because of the scale of the problem.
I agree the best solution would be for players to always gamble in their home currency but unfortunately it isn’t viable for the casinos to do this.
Unfortunately we have very little sway with the casinos in relation to their terms and conditions although I’ll raise your points. In the meantime, if you’re looking to take a sign-up bonus at any of the casinos you would have to be using a CAD or USD account.
Best regards,
Tim
