Short Description
|
: |
If there's one thing Casino Tropez will never have a shortage of, it's domain names. Whether it's casinotropez.com, casino-tropez.trapeka.com or tropezonlinecasino.com (and believe me, I left out about ten more), you're pretty much headed to the same place. Perhaps they figured, "Hey, if we buy every URL on the entire internet, people would have no choice but to come to our website!" Of course, what Casino Tropez lacks in marketing tact, they more than make up for with healthy promotions and the gratuitous use of sex. And yes, I'm always in favor of some of that.

The Casino Gambling Look
Like many other online casinos and Las Vegas casinos, Casino Tropez's website is full of flashing lights, green felt and large bonusadvertisements. However, the clutter is far from inscrutable and it's fairly simple to navigate through the melee with quick links on the top and bottom and huge picture links for those who can't read. Which couldn't possibly be you, because you're reading this right now. Unless someone is reading this for you.
The Casino Tropez online casino
As for the Casino Tropez online casino, it comes in two forms, via downloadable software or the always fun flash-based version. Choose wisely. Regardless, the interface is fairly easy to use and as with most online casinos, the tables and slots are modeled after actual casino games. However, Casino Tropez also offers live casino games with live dealers. That's right, just like in a Las Vegas casino, you too can pin the blame of horrible luck on the shoulders of some unsuspecting Asian lady. Zeta, Queenie, Mina and Dee all look like dealers I've lost money to before. On the other hand, Paris, Lucinda and Randi look like models who've never seen a deck of cards in their lives. I suppose, if I'm going to go down, I might as well do it with models.
Online Casino Registration
Signing up for the Casino Tropez online casino is very simple. Standard stuff, really. First name, last name, email...occupation? They want to know what you do? Well sir, I happen to be an oil tycoon, now please give me special treatment. Why do I write articles? It's a hobby, you see, to pass the time between hostile takeovers, raising prices and destroying the environment. Once you have registered, the next fun step is the deposit of funds. Now most internet gambling aficionados choose to use third parties like NETeller or FirePay, but the fees can be unbearable. Now Casino Tropez does offer credit cards, but since they charge it directly to the house and not a separate business to hide the transaction, it probably won't go through. Besides, with ten to fifteen percent in bonuses by using the third parties or wire transfers, the fees end up being close enough to a wash where you can live with it.
Casino Bonuses and Promotions
Casino Tropez gives you a hundred percent match of your initial deposit, with a maximum of $100. This can be seen as beneficial or a hindrance, depending on how much you were looking to deposit. For example, if you were depositing a hundred dollars, your bonus would essentially double you up. On the other hand, if you were putting in a large amount like $2,000, the bonus would essentially come out to five percent.
More Bonus Opportunities
On your second deposit, you can earn up to $200, depending on your deposit amount. Deposit $50 and get $25 free, $100 and get $50 and the $200 is rewarded to deposits of $400 more. As with initial deposits, you have to wager both the deposit and bonus amount fifteen times in order to cash out. In other words, don't count on cashing that bonus anytime soon or ever for that matter. For instance, if you deposited $400 and got the $200 bonus, you'd have to wager $9,000 before you could touch the bonus money. That's right, $9,000. By the way, games such as Baccarat, Craps, Roulette, and Sic Bo? They don't count toward the $9,000.
After your second deposit, the bonus works on a weekly basis, with your first deposit of the week earning you 25% up to $75. Wager a billion dollars and you might see that, too.
Casino Payouts, Service and User Reviews
Anytime you use a third party payout service such as NETeller, FirePay or Moneybookers, the transactions are normally quick and easy. Yet with Casino Tropez, there are various other issues which slow the process of getting coin in your pocket. First of all, upon initiating a withdrawal, there is a pending period which can take anywhere from 1 to 4 days, depending on your "VIP level," whatever that means (hmm...perhaps I should've have listed unemployed as my occupation). After this waiting period, there is another five to seven day waiting period for money transfers or up to three weeks if you're looking for a check. On the bright side, you can keep track of the status of your withdrawal on the Casino Tropez casinosoftware. Prepare to see a lot of the word, "pending."
Customer Service
The Casino Tropez customer service is available 24/7. Which is the case for all internet casinos. Yeah. Moving along, Casino Tropez also provides support through the all but defunct fax machine and the not so defunct email system. In fact, they have six different emails to cater to your specific need. Which is kind of like a help you to help me sort of deal.
Despite my cynical behavior, for the most part the customer service is quick and reliable. They answered the phone in an amazing single ring and although the agent seemed to shuffle a few papers around before speaking, I was pleased that she spoke perfect English and could answer basic questions. In this business, that's more than enough.
Users also attest to the helpful service: "I have found that Casino Tropez has excellent customer service. That is good work." -Yasmin
Overall Online Casino Rating
Casino Tropez is a lot like Patty Duke. Identical cousins, they walk alike and talk alike. Of course they do. After all, they're both Patty Duke. The same goes for Casino Tropez. They have a thousand different domain names and they all point to the same internet casino. Still, they offer over sixty games, have a clean interface and best of all, they have live dealers. That alone throws the comedy scale through the roof, which as much as I like Patty Duke, she can't compete with.
