They were among the first Microgaming casinos to implement separate bonus accounts. The terms and conditoins were sometimes very hard to find on the sites and they seem to be having some problems at the moment with promotions and confiscating winnings from bonus offers.

They have been well regarded but at the moment they are dumped until the current problems are resolved.
Here is another discussion thread about this group concerning some past confusion about their bonuses. |

I am not sure what they think they are doing but it seems they have lost the plot. They have been removing bonuses from some players and this email has been posted on various boards:
| Quote: |
Hi there XXXX,
Thanks for the email.
You have been found to be skimming our promotions and using them for financial gain or a means of income rather then for entertainment purposes. You WILL have your deposits refunded but anything above the deposit amount will be retained by the casino.
I apologise for the inconvenience.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
Fair thee well,
Friar Theodore
Royal Clergyman
|
They later decided on another tactic and sent out this email to players:
| Quote: |
We have been the subject potentially of a large group of abusers who have
taken unfair advantage of our promotions. This has been done at the
expense of our loyal players, such as yourself, who deposit and receive
promotions on a regular basis.
We must now undertake an immediate and complete audit of all player
accounts, and as a consequence, your funds have been temporarily placed
on hold as we undertake this audit. You may elect for an immediate refund of
deposit(s) made to claim signup bonuses up to the amount of your player
current account balance or withdrawal, however, in doing so you will
forfeit any amounts in your accounts/withdrawals above and beyond your
deposit(s). If you wish to elect for this option of deposit refund please
respond to this email with "BJ play return deposit" in the subject line
and we will attend to your query immediately.
If you have not played BJ with your signup bonus or signup bonus
qualifying deposit, we can give express attention to your query and we
will be able to process your withdrawal quickly. If this is the case
please respond to this email with 'No BJ Play" in the subject line, and we
will attend to your query immediately.
Our audit and reconciliation will be complete within 7 days of receiving
this email. We will advise you at the end of this audit of our findings
and decisions.
It is important to us you understand we are not inferring you are part of
this abusive group, however we must audit every player to prove the
innocent as well as identify the abusers.
Kind regards,
Fraud and Security Department
|
Later they released this statement:
| Quote: | Integrity Casinos Limited (ICL) is releasing a formal statement in response to recent speculation regarding their player account audit.
In early March, three of the casino brands operated by Integrity Casinos (Captain Cooks Casino, Casino Kingdom and Casino Classic) were found to have suffered a significant amount of suspect wagering.
A large number of casino accounts (displaying suspect wagering behavior) have now been identified, warranting casino management to take immediate action. This action involves Integrity Casinos undertaking a complete review of the identified accounts – a process that is both time consuming and labor intensive. Once complete, accounts will have been classified into one of three possible positions. The following outlines the actions that will be taken:
Position
1) Proven to be a legitimate player without suspect wagering.
Result
These accounts will be unlocked and players advised.
Position
2) Wagering has a high probability of being suspect, and the Real Account has a zero balance.
Result
These accounts will be closed and
players advised.
Position
3) Wagering has a high probability of being suspect, and the Real Account has a balance greater than zero.
Result
These accounts will have any amounts transferred from their Bonus Account removed, and players advised they can continue wagering with their deposits and any remaining winnings, under the terms and conditions that existed at the time the deposit was made.
If any suspect account has cashins pending, these will be paid but transfers from the Bonus Account to Deposit Accounts will be deducted first. Cashins for non-suspect accounts will be honoured in full.
These actions are all designed to ensure that Integrity Casinos is known to operate brands where players who look for genuine gaming entertainment based around playing against the rules of the games fairly, are welcomed and treated with respect and courtesy.
Players who do not fall into this category detract from the ability of Integrity Casinos to reward the genuine and legitimate players for their continued patronage of our brands, and will not be tolerated.

sunspun's review for Captain Cooks ====================================They made me mad here at first, because I was trying to register a new account, and I can't remember if it wouldn't let me register as a new player, or if they just wouldn't give me the new player bonus. But one of those... they said I had already registered, which I knew I had not! Turned out though that someone ELSE already had registered an account with them while using my computer, and they just never mentioned it to me. (Denied it, in fact, until I showed them proof!) So I didn't get the new player bonus, but I decided to play anyway, since I was already there and ready and all, but I didn't cash out. Their support was actually pretty nice on the phone with me, I see that now. At the time though, when I thought I was right and they were wrong, I didn't see it that way!

catrescue911's review for Captain Cooks ====================================I have to say that this is one of the tightest casinos I have ever played at online. I have deposited there maybe 4 or 5 times, and just can't seem to do anything with the games. It doesn't matter what I play. I won't play where I feel like I don't have a chance, and Cap Cooks falls right n that category. I don't expect to always win, but I want to get more than 5 minutes of play from my deposit.

catrescue911's review for Casino Kingdom ====================================I played at Casino Kingdom on a ND bonus, and it's really difficult to tell much about a casino with $10. That just seems cheap to me, and usually I don't deposit after that unless I get to play for a while. I haven't deposited there yet, and if offered a really nice bonus with a decent playthrough, I might bite.

sunspun's review for Casino Kingdom ====================================I have not played here very much, but the times I have played here, were all good. I was more than satisfied with the software here; I don't know why this one would have been any different, since I know a lot of other casinos that I have also played at use this same type of software, but for some reason, my computer liked this one better! Everything seemed to run more smoothly and games played a little more quickly, especially the blackjack game, which is what I usually like to play.

golfpro29's review for Captain Cooks ====================================I have not played here in quite a while, but if they are still like they used to be they are a very good place to play. I think they were bought by Casino Rewards though, which isn't a bad thing, just not the same management as they used to be. I would still play here though as they do have some good bonuses and great service.
