New Casinos: Amber Coast & JV8 Casino
May 20, 2005
The first of our newbie casinos this week carries a range of financial
instruments that illustrates what a wide choice is open to players
in financing their online gambling. Amber Coast Casino.com offers
Neteller Instacash, Moneybookers, MyCitadel and Citadel, 900Pay,
Navaho eWallet Express, Ecocard, UseMyBank and Instadebit through
which players can gamble in dollars, Euros or GBP on the good quality
60+ download casino games on offer. However, read the T&Cs carefully
as there are restrictions on what currencies can be used from various
countries.
The site is cleanly designed and well laid out, with a loyalty
program, full 24/7 Support and a typically Playtech range of bonuses.
But what are hopefully teething problems earlier this week indicate
that players need to be cautious on the bonus front, as the management
pulled some questionable "bonus abuser" disqualifications.
The licensing is through Curacao in the Netherlands Antilles, and
the holding company has the rather provocative title Nameguard Holding
Inc, a subsidiary of Amber One International NV. It is understood
that Amber One's parent of the same name is a European group. The
onsite blurb says that fair gaming is assured by the OPA, which
many Internet gambling experts do not feel is a credible entity.
Latest from the RTG studios is the quaintly named JV8Casino.com,
a Costa Rican based entity that also owns a sportsbook. The site
does not contain sufficient information by today's standards but
is professionally if sparsely presented with Support facilities
and a pretty standard range of financing options. The lack of upfront
information, and a tendency for the software to start downloading
without so much as a by-your-leave is disappointing. As at going
to press there had been no response to our emails requesting more
information on this operation.
