English Harbour Casino has been around since the inception of online gambling and has served more than 3.5 million customers worldwide. It has spent the years building up one of the most respected reputation in the industry while perfecting its offering to players and this definitely shows in everything from sign-ups to software, exceptional customer service and speedy payouts. It's no wonder English Harbour has been the recipient of the highest accolades the industry can bestow on a casino including Top Casino, Top Casino Service, Top Casino Reputation, Quickest Payouts and Most Honest Casino.

With a reputation like this, one can't help but have high expectations of their experience at English Harbour Casino and one thing is for sure, this casino does not disappoint.

Welcome Bonus and Promotional Offerings

Off the bat, English Harbour Casino offers a 150% Match Bonus up to $300 free on your first deposit of $30 or more (a wagering requirement of 20x the bonus + purchase amount). This is automatically credited to your account so if you decide that you don't want to accept the bonus, then you will have to contact the support team to have them remove it from your casino account.

For existing players, English Harbour Casino offers regular players a loyalty bonus of an extra 5% up to $100 per calendar month every time you deposit at the casino. In addition to this, English Harbour pit-bosses are very generous and love to slip a bonus or coupon into players’ accounts every now and again, so make sure you provide your e-mail address when you sign up and check your mail often!

There are also a number of ongoing casino tournaments with some amazing prizes and guaranteed payouts, so make sure you check out their promotional calendar.

Also, English Harbour casino really values player loyalty above all else and offers some of their best promotions to those who fit into that category...

Loyalty

English Harbour Casino's loyalty program is based on earning rewards points as you play which can then be exchanged for Real casino cash.

Then there is the English Harbour Casino VIP program which is generally recognized as one of the finest in the business. VIP membership is by invitation only and the casino staff will contact you if you are eligible for membership.

And membership really is worth playing for as players on level 3 and above of the program are offered a weekly bonus where you can receive up to $750 in bonuses with your deposits every week, divided as follows: 25% on your first deposit every Monday (on your first deposit only), a 50% bonus every Wednesday (on your first deposit only) and a 100% bonus on your first deposit of every Friday! These bonuses are also subject to a 20x wagering minimum before you can make a withdrawal.

In addition to this, VIP's enjoy instant cash-back bonuses on all deposits, regular rebates on their deposits, higher levels of comp points and expedited withdrawals. Like I said, definitely worth playing for!

Being an existing player I logged in and made my deposit of $100 via Neteller and headed off to the casino lobby to check out all the games on offer.

Games Offering

English Harbour Casino is powered by Vegas Technologies software and offers amazing graphics and sound, making playing at this casino a true pleasure.

English Harbour casino offers players a large selection of over 80 exciting online casino games. Regardless of whether you're a Slots or a Table games player you'll find what you're looking for at English Harbour.

I started off at the Vegas Strip Blackjack Table which has very lifelike graphics and is really a lot of fun. Betting limits range from $2 to $200 on each hand which is good because it can suit every player’s pocket. I had a great first few hands and then my luck started to wane and I moved on to the Roulette Tables and bet on black which was a good bet and then I moved on to my lucky numbers 23 red and 11 black...and won again...yeah!!!

Thereafter I check out the Video Poker games that English Harbour offers and found all of the familiar variations like Jacks or Better, Aces and Faces, and Double Joker. I decided to play Aces and Faces and like most video poker games, this one gives you a lot of play for your money. I made another $80 on the machine after an hour and then headed off to the Slots to spend my winnings.

English Harbour offers a number of Classic, Bonus and Video slots. I always gravitate towards the Video Slots on offer and this time was no different and I started off playing Cleopatra's Pyramid which is an Egyptian themed game with 20 paylines. There is also a bonus round that I triggered about 15 minutes into the game, where your prize is multiplied by the number of paylines the symbols land on and a win is guaranteed. I reluctantly moved on to Mermaids Quest which is a 5-reel, 9 payline slot also with a multi-level bonus game and free spins, I really did not do well on this one and quickly moved on to try my hand at the progressive jackpots.

Treasure Trail is a 3 reel progressive game based on a Gold Mining theme but rather than finding a fortune I lost it!! Finally I tried out the All Star Horse Racing speciality game which is highly realistic and feels like a day out at the races and my horse placed second!

With $120 left in my casino account I decided not to cashout because I'd had such a great time that I decided to return the following evening for some more fun. However should you wish to cashout, the process is quick and easy and your money will be back in your account in no time at all.

Customer Support

English Harbour Casino offers you 24-hour player support 7 days a week, and their team is accessible via telephone, email or live chat. You will find that all of your enquiries are answered promptly including your chat ones which is usually where most other casinos fall short.

 

The Verdict

English Harbour lives up to their reputation in every part of their offering and really is a first class casino all the way. I have no hesitation in recommending this casino to you and all I can ask is "what are you waiting for?"
