  William Hill Casino - Review, Background Check & Deposit Bonus Details

William Hill Casino  

William Hill Casino is the online arm of a major U.K. Bookmaker now looking to establish itself as the casino of choice for online players. For a while it seemed as though William Hill just didn't quite "get" online gambling, as although they were one of the first to start taking bets over the internet (back in 1998), their online offering was a simple "skin site" operated by software giant Playtech (who also provide software for many other operators). That changed on the 20th October 2008 when William Hill took what their Chief Executive described as a "transformational step" by buying up the major shareholding in Playtech. Overnight the new group, William Hill Online, became one of the giants of the European online gaming sector, with pro forma net revenues of £190 million (around $300 million).

So it's all change, now, with a totally new look sportsbook and a re-vamped casino. The Playtech software provides a slick and reliable online experience, and William Hill have launched an aggressive bonus policy to tempt new players, with both new player sign-up bonuses and a regular monthly tiered bonus for existing players. The latter can earn players from £25 - £100,000 every single month. It is easy to follow your progress towards clearing any of the bonuses you qualify for, as the "My Account" page in the lobby shows exactly how much of the bonus you have cleared. Just be warned : to qualify for the monthly bonus you need to play the download version of the casino - bets made on the "instant play" casino do not count towards the bonus. That's not a major problem for most players as the casino is quick to download and installation is a one-click affair, but if for any reason you don't want to download a casino to your desktop then look at one of our other Trusted Gambling Sites for better no-download casino options.

Assuming you're okay with downloading and installing a casino, you should seriously consider William Hill's offering. All the usual popular games are there (including six different types of blackjack) and there's a huge range of slots (over 50, including 11 progressive slots for potential big wins, and "rapid fire" slots to keep even the most hyper-active slot-head entertained). You can also play scratch cards, sudoku, and puzzle games such as Cubis and Bejeweled. There's even an "online slots adventure game" called Jewel Quest.

Getting your money in and out is quick and trouble-free, just as it should be, and there's 24/7 help available by phone or email (and the support staff really do know their stuff). Monthly audited reports on payout percentages are published on the site each and every month - something every online casino site should do! The new-look William Hill is a highly tempting option for online players, and the new team behind the casino are clearly keen to attract - and keep - new players disenchanted with less professional sites.

How easy is it to get the bonus?

Please check the website details for the exact terms and conditions, as these vary from bonus to bonus. The following details are designed to give an idea of the terms of a typical bonus at the site.

Typically you need to wager £100 to earn yourself a £25 bonus, which is really not too bad at all.  Slots and scratchcards count towards the wagering requirements, but only half of wagers on roulette and poker count, and only 25% of wagers on blackjack, craps and video poker.  There's almost no limit to the size of the bonus you can acquire, though players wagering over one million pounds (!) will have their bonuses paid manually rather than automatically.  To check your progress towards any of the bonuses, go to "My Account" and then click "View details of your free bets and bonuses".  You should find that you are pleasantly surprised how quickly the bonuses rack up.

How do I get started?

Just click here to visit the William Hill Casino website and download the software for free. There is also a "no download" option that runs in your browser if you don't want to wait to download or you have a Mac / Linux operating system. Note that you can earn a new player bonus by playing at the no-download casino, but you cannot earn the regular monthly bonus.

William Hill Casino Review Summary:

Casino : William Hill Casino

Reviewed by : Golden Rule Of Gambling

Overall rating (out of 5): 4

Review last updated on : 6th October 2009

In a nutshell : Run by one of the UK's largest gambling firms, players are in safe hands at William Hill Casino. Slots and fruit machines are better at Ladbrokes, but the rest of the games are well above the industry standard.
