Fortune Lounge
I played at Royal Vegas last week and won . I cashed out Fri. morning and the money was in my Neteller Sun. afternoon . I was impressed to say the least, since this is the first time I had ever made a cashin at any online casino, and didn't know what to expect. Customer service was also very helpful and courteous. I see a lot of posts about negative experiences people have with some online casinos, and my experience made me feel much more comfortable about playing. Thanks Fortune Lounge
...
I think I can top that. I haven't played at any Fortune Lounge Casinos in about 6 months. I deposited at Havana Club last night around 10pm. Cashed out about an hour later and asked to have my winnings flushed, which they did. The money was in my neteller account early this afternoon. So all in all it took less than 14 hours after I requested my withdrawal for it to be in my account.

Fortune Lounge - Not impressed
Well, i just had one of the most embarassing days I've had at home in a long time. I won't go into the details but it was triggerred by a promotional letter from Fortune Lounge arriving through the post. Plastered on the front was a "7 Sultans Casino" logo and stamp - unfortunately i wasn't first to the post yesterday but that's the end of any Fortune Lounge casino gaming i ever do thats for sure. Maybe everyone else is proud to let the world they know they gamble at online casinos - but me? Nope.
...
Hey! I got a letter from FL - completely plain on the outside.
They're listening! {thumbsup}
...
I also got one in a plain envelope with an innocuous return address, Satra Technology Centre, Kettering.

I would like to play with just my money....
...
the worst bonus I would ever take is 20% offered by Fortune Lounge.
those 10% by Havana club always goes to recycle bin
*about a bonus for using an alternative payment method
