Bit of bonus news for the regulars here - I spent some time this arvo checking a bunch of casino promos and the free-start deals seem to be shifting again. Not disappearing completely, but a lot of them are smaller than they used to be, more random game restrictions, shorter claim windows, and way more annoying turnover terms tucked in the fine print.
Couple of years back you could find a few decent little try-before-you-deposit deals without too much drama. Now it feels like heaps of sites still advertise them, but once you click through it turns into free spins on one slot only, max cashout chopped right down, or you need to verify half your life before you can even touch anything. Seen a few that look juicy at first glance then end up being barely worth the mucking around.
I am not saying there are none left - there are still a few alright ones if you know what to look for. I just reckon the standard has slipped lately, or maybe operators have finally worked out too many punters were farming the better offers. Fair enough from their side I guess, but for players it means you really need to read every bloody condition before getting keen.
What are you lot seeing right now? Any places still doing genuinely decent freebies with fair terms, or is the trend pretty clearly heading toward tighter limits and more hoops? Curious whether this is just what I have spotted this week or if others are seeing the same thing.
