This is one of the latest promotional offer that I had received in my mailbox - 10Euros No-Deposit Bonus + 200% bonus for the first deposit. That sounded quite good. There aren't many cash no-deposit bonuses nowadays, mostly being free spins, so I looked up in AskGamblers and did some checking first. Country not restricted, good, bonus not restricted, good, but I was restricted from not signing up! Restricted from NOT signing up?! Never heard that one before. But of course...I just made that one up! Since I'm restricted from not signing up, so...I signed up! Simple as that! Hahaha.
Oh boy! Did I have a blardy tough time trying to register! I had to wait for over one hour just to get the registration form, then another hour or so to activate my account and get back into the casino's lobby, and even more hours just to load up the game Fruit Zen! Each time I got cut-off, I had to reload, and got stuck in the lobby again! Started in the daytime, finally loaded up the game Fruit Zen by night time! Quick yes? Yeah, right. My blardy ISP was crawling like mad, no doubt, partly to blame also was the casino's navigation and configuration settings...it's totally unfriendly to slow ISPs! At Casumo and Casino Room, for example, I could do login and start playing a game within 30 - 60 minutes at the most, with my crawling ISP, but more than half a day just to do login and play a game is way way unacceptable to me! A very strong deterrent for me to play at Parklane Casino, until they do something about their website startup and navigation settings!
Anyway, back to the bonus and the game. Upon registration, 4Euros got automatically credited into my account, the balance 6Euros got in after activation via my email. I played that 10Euros bonus solely on Fruit Zen, choosing not to play on Starburst at all. Fruit Zen was playing quite well, with the Wilds coming often. About 10 minutes into the play, 2 Wilds came up, paid a good big win, and pushed by balance up to $46. Then I got cut off! What the... ! Only after midnight I could play the game again, after wasting more blardy hours waiting in the lobby, then waiting for the game to load up! When I finally got back in, Fruit Zen wasn't playing good any more. Ups and downs a few times, then my balance was back to zero. Damn! I hate it when the going was good and then suddenly getting cut off just like that. Restarting any game that way has always been bad for me. The end result would always be a loss!

If not for the way the website hangs in its navigation, I might still enjoy playing Fruit Zen at Parklane Casino. Having gone through such a bad experience, I would certainly think many times first before coming back!
