question Are the weekly top-up deals getting worse or am I just cranky?

Maybe I'm just being a grump, but a lot of the weekly deposit promos feel pretty ordinary now. Used to be I'd see one and think yeah alright, chuck a bit in and have a spin. Now it's like 40x this, tiny max cashout that, half the decent games blocked, and the thing expires before you've even had a proper look after work.

What annoys me most is when they dress it up like it's some ripper offer and then the fine print absolutely murders it. If I need a calculator and 15 mins of reading just to work out whether it's playable, it's probably not worth touching. I'd rather a smaller, cleaner deal than some bloated promo that's basically bait.

Curious where everyone else is at with these lately. Do you still bother with the weekly ones or just ignore them unless they're actually decent? And what do you reckon makes one worth taking - lower wagering, better game eligibility, no stupid win cap, a few free spins instead of bonus funds?

Keen to hear which style you lot rate, because I swear half the promos around now are all flash and no substance.

I reckon they only feel rubbish if you're taking them every single week no matter what. I treat them as optional top-ups for money I was already going to chuck in anyway, and some are still fine if the terms are short enough and the cashout rules aren't goofy. Once I started skipping anything with a cap or heaps of excluded stuff, the weekly offers got a lot less annoying.
