Westway Games Casino Review

Review last updated - November 2017.

OVERVIEW | 4.34/10

Westway Games are a fairly new online gambling portal and therefore have an industry reputation to build.  They are owned and operated by Palatial Leisure Limited - a company with experience in the bingo sector - now extending their portfolio to take in the online casino sector. Westway Games are sister property to The Palaces casino and both are licensed in the United Kingdom by the United Kingdom Gambling Commission (UKGC). Westway Games offer a fairly small range of games by:  Net Entertainment, Parlay Games and IGT.  Their site design is basic and built upon a colour palette of black and gold and their logo features the "W" of their initial in gold. They have no outstanding complaints at any of the major gambling portals at this time.

TRUSTWORTHINESS | 3/10

Westway Games have no outstanding complaints at any of the major mediation portals.

(-1) Duplicate Terms and Conditions. Westway Games are currently using duplicate Terms and Conditions which continually site their sister casino The Palaces instead of their own name - this requires addressing.

The Palaces have been unresponsive to our repeated efforts to communicate with them about a player complaint submitted to this site. While the complaint was ultimately resolved without our intervention, the fact that The Palaces failed to respond to our repeated communications means that we cannot reasonably expect to be able to assist player in future. As such The Palaces and associated properties have been moved to Not Recommended status .

We consider this entire group to be high risk to players and not one of the best online casinos. There are many far safer new casinos. For other operators you can find information in our casino reviews.

Slots RTP

Westway Games do not appear to publish the house edge for their slots games like the best slots sites and customer support did not appear to understand what the return to player (RTP) figures were when asked.

Comp Points

Westway Games do not appear to offer comp or loyalty points.

Closing Thoughts

Unfortunately when an operator chooses not to respond to complaints received by this site, even where they ultimately get resolved without our intervention, they set a precedent for future issues that we cannot ignore. We simply will not recommend any operator that is not cooperative in the management of player complaints.

Associated By Company

The below operators are run by the same company as this operator. This means that, for well regulated operators, self-exclusions or bonus bans may carry over to these properties. For poorly licensed, or unlicensed operators, it is good to know which other sites are being run by the same company, so you can avoid companies that have mistreated you in the past.
