Review of Virgin Games
Virgin Games is named for the internationally renowned Virgin brand which was established by flamboyant tycoon Richard Branson. After the sale of the site to online gambling operator Gamesys in early 2013, it remains connected to the Virgin empire in name only via a licensing agreement. It is licensed under and regulated by both the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority and UK Gambling Commission. It only accepts players from the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Software and game selection
Virgin Games offers a selection of traditional casino games, slot machines, and bingo games. Many of the games developed by IGT - such as Siberian Storm, Wolf Run, and Cats - will be instantly recognisable to land casino visitors, and they are complemented by several that have been developed in house by its operator, Gamesys. Overall the game selection is not large, and is certainly smaller than what it was in the years before Gamesys acquired the site.
Virgin Games is a browser based casino, which means there are no software downloads or installations necessary. Just go to the site and you can play the flash based games right there in your browser, no matter what kind of computer or operating system you prefer. The interface is easy to navigate and the games have crisp graphics, and you also have the option of playing from your favourite mobile device.
There are several progressive jackpots up for grabs at Virgin Games. The most notable is the Wonderland progressive that can be won by playing Gamesys' Alice in Wonderland themed slot machine of the same name. In addition there are jackpots on Diamond Bonanza, Caribbean Stud Poker and more.
The casino offers daily promotions, reload bonuses and various prizes. However, what sets this casino apart when it comes to bonuses and promotions is V*Points. Members can exchange their V*Points for different rewards across the Virgin brand, including straight cash, European flights, Virgin Atlantic Club frequent flyer miles, charities, vouchers and more.
Banking and Support
The banking options at Virgin Games are small - they accept major credit and debit cards issued in the UK, plus Paypal, Neteller, and bank transfers. Although somewhat limited, this should not present a problem to most of the UK based customers that Virgin is targeting.
As you would expect from a company of Virgin's stature, the casino is staffed by a highly competent customer support crew which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Support can be contacted via phone, email, and live web chat. Our interactions with them have proved them to be competent and professional.
Conclusion
Providing you live in the UK or Ireland, which are currently the only places that Virgin will accept players from, there is a lot to like about Virgin Games. It is backed by a stable and well regarded operator in Gamesys and it is licensed in the highly regarded Gibraltar jurisdiction. While it has a small collection of high quality games, it could improve its desirability by expanding the choices for players which have diminished since the Gamesys takeover.

Virgin casino it is casino with very unique games for me and i think it is called IGT. THis games very interesting for me and i like to play sometimes but looks like here from bulgaria i am not possible to play this games any more and of course it is a bit sad for me. Also it is not possible to download this games on personal computer but from other flip i really think it is not very important for this games because i never in my life see that this games lag or spinnings slow. Also i think IGT games very popular in USA land based casinos so it is really interesting to see what this usa gamblers play in their land base casinos. Live chat at virgin casino is very good but i am have no idea is it works 24/7 or not. I can not remember anything good or bad regarding their bonuses and promotions so probably i did not get it at all and it is of course pity fact. Also i never have payout request from this casino because games was cold for me but i played this games not so many times and probably i just need to play it more to have some really great wins and withdrawals. I think it is safe casino for players.

Those games look like EXACTLY what is offered at the Land Casino. I have played Kitty Glitter before at the land casinos, but never did well on that one. lol
Virgin Casino has been sold to the Gamesys group which has been operating JackpotJoy among other sites for the past few years. It will keep the Virgin brand name, but it is no longer part of the Virgin empire.
In addition they now only accept players from the UK and Ireland.
Always play it safe! Consult our list of rogue casinos and warnings before depositing at a new casino.

That is fantastic that they closed your account within 4 minutes. It shows that their exclusion policy works and they enforce it. However I am surprised that they did not refund your money. Did you play and lose it before they blocked your new account or was it in the system untouched?

I was a member of Virgin Games in December just gone, i then self excluded my self as i didnt want to spend any more money as i had a gambling problem. A couple of weeks later i opened another account with them as some extra money came in , i shouldn have reall done that but that is what people do with a gambling problem. Any way virgin blocked my new account withi 4 minutes of opening it. they then contacted me by email several days later telling me it was because i self excluded my self. They also decided to keep my £100.00 deposit and refused to give it back, they said in their email as far as they are concerened when i self excluded myself as was taking a short holiday !! Its the worst service i have ever had , i mean i shouldnt have set up a new account but hey they should not be trying to gain from it should they. Just cancelled my virgin TV , phone and Broadband with them . I made the mistake in the 1st place but what an awful company to deal with. Stay clear of Virgin Games
Just wondering why a Portuguese player isn't eligible for the deposit bonus? I'm a slot player and i love to play in online casinos. I put in risk more then 1.000€ every month in online casinos and i don't look at myself as a bonus abuser. So why i cannot claim virgin's welcome bonus? Because of my nationality? Is this fair and/or legal? As a depositer, why i cannot have the same privileges like any other player have?
Well, that's all i have to say about Virgin.
I have an account at Virgin casino, but have not really played there, just some demo versions and that's all. But recently I checked for updates and they have a kind of lottery awarding the members for completing the feedback survey by an i Pad2 , but not all, of course, one of them.. It is my dream to have one! Sure I've completed it 🙂
Yep..I agree with Chelsea...great collection of games..and if you win you are paid..and when I say paid I mean very fast..For example I receive my credit card payments in less than 24 h... 10/10
Virgin is my favourite casino. The games are fun and knowing who is running it you know you are going to get paid when you win.
