English Harbour

Another respected elder in the online casino world, English Harbour made its first appearance in 1997.  It has managed to maintain its place as a formidable force in online gaming, however it has had to go through some revisions in order to do so.  One of its biggest changes is the upgrade in its Odds On Inc. Software.  English Harbour now operates on the downsized and upgraded Vegas Technology.  Vegas Technology offered a smaller download size and quicker game uploads for the casino.  The games are crisper and the sound clearer. 

While other software providers strive for realism, English Harbor offers it by providing a cross section of classic games that can be found at actual, land-based Las Vegas Casinos.  The ‘games’ page on the website allows player to view an animated short that gives a great taste for each games graphics and playability.  The only major downside to the English Harbour Casino is the absence of multiplayer tables.  Those may come later, but as for now, it is a bit of a disappointment from such a great casino.

For players that do not want to jump immediately into real money wagers, English Harbour has a fantastic flash casino.  The flash casino can be played with real money wagers for players that do not want to download the casino software, however there is a “play for fun” option.  The best use for the free flash games is to brush up on gaming skills.  Players can practice for endless hours on the free games.  The casino also provides a tutorial section on how to play their classic casino games.  You all know Max supports educated gamblers, so read through them and work on your skills more often than you jeopardize your hard earned dough. 

English Harbour certainly makes up for any disappointments with their promotions.  Their welcome bonus is simple and not too flashy, but still pretty good.  The casino offers a 100% bonus up to $275.  Not bad, but nothing special.  But, you are not going to find many casinos that can outdo English Harbour’s loyalty program.  English Harbour offers $100 each month to returning players.  The casino’s tournaments and contests are worth mentioning as well. 

Every weekend, a mere $20 buys you into the Slots Frenzy tournament.  $20 buys $5000 worth of casino credit to compete in the tournament.  The only thing better that gambling with someone else’s money, is gambling with a lot of someone else’s money.  Then, if the loyalty bonus was not enough to keep players coming back, the casino hosts the $25,000 Pure Cash Contest.  At the end of every calendar month, the casino selects 111 lucky players and blesses them with $25,000 dollars.  It is very generous.  Players are automatically entered by making a deposit each month. 

The customer support team at English Harbour is strong and reliable.  They are operating all day, every day, just like any casino customer support team worth their salt.  Toll free contact number include player calling from the US, Australia, and Europe.  The European countries include the United Kingdom, Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain. There is an additional international number, unfortunately international rates do apply.  English Harbour, of course provides e-mail contact to the service team.   

English Harbour Casino is operated out of St. John’s, Antigua.  They are fully licensed under the approval of the Gaming Commission of the Government of Antigua and Barbuda.  They are proud members of the Interactive Gaming Council.
