I did speak to Nicolas on the phone regarding this and he indicated the following:
1. The casino felt large bonuses were an integral part of their marketing scheme and it ws unlikely they would change this policy.
2. He agreed that bonuses and coupons should not be used as a tool to lower affiliate commissions and he was investigating this thorughly as the possibility existed that this COULD happen with the present system. He didnt want to be part of anything like that and he seemed serious about chasing this down.
We left off on that note.
