Golden Palace Casino - 'Golden' or a dog?

[automaton_22]

Hi all.
Have just read this post:

Which seems to reflect pretty badly on Golden Palace - they seem to stall payment / not pay at all.

However all of the problems seem to be involving US customers after the ban.

Any non-US players had a problem? Am looking to take advantage of the $300 startup bonus playing blackjack.

Thanks.

I'm Australian, no problems here. Played there 6 weeks ago and claimed the full $300 bonus + $40 profit. After I sent in ID, I cashed out in 3 days.

Thanks mate. The admin at beatingbonuses confirmed the same: he said he has not heard of people outside of the US having problems.

By the way Paul, could you please describe your bet sizing approach when you played at Golden Palace? I presume you played surrender blackjack? $1 or $2 sized bets?

[PaulG]

Yep $1 flatbetting at BJ (surrender if allowed).

I have cashed out with a nice profit from the 100$ dep.

But I did have to scan a lot of docs and email to them.

I mostly betted on diff. versions of BJ at 1 and up to 3 $ per hand.

It goes up and down but actually I ended with a small profit over deposit+bonus.

it's standard at golden palace. everyone has to send them (ID + 2 forms with your name and address(if you don't have cc/bank statements available))

I'm from Finland. First I went down 200$ and just when I cleared the requirements I was up almost 700$ (including the bonus 300$). Betting 5$ bets on 3 hands of BJ.
Then I had to send digital photo (don't own a scanner) of my ID (passport) and two utility bills. That was it. Cashout was painless.

OK - an update on this bonus now that I have completed it - Golden Palace get the thumbs up. Just recieved $230 profit on top of original deposit, have the cash in my Neteller now, played surrender blackjack 5 handed, $2/hand [Blackjack is extremely boring - couldn't tolerate lower variance play].
The company themselves were a breeze to deal with [yes I had to submit various ID forms - did this by photographing documents with digicam and emailing].
Communication from them was prompt, cashout within 4 days.
Thumbs up.

Will I play for another casion bonus? No, blackjack is just too boring, and desapite the pretty good hourly rate, it is just not worth the effort. But I can recommend these guys.

lol betting $1/$2 per hand...
