Virgin Casino Awarded Top Casinomeister Ranking

LONDON, October 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Virgin Casino, part of the leading online gaming company, Virgin Games, has been awarded top marks by Casinomeister (http://www.casinomeister.com) - the online gaming industry's leading player forum, advocate of fair play and consumer rights - in its new ranking of its accredited online casinos.

Virgin Casino, alongside 32Red, received the highest score of 9.5 out of a possible 10. Every casino starts at ten points and for each category points are removed or added determined by hierarchies in that category.

Areas that were rated include game software providers, type and quality of games,   responsiveness to issues, payments and ability to engage and interest players through creative promotions.  Jurisdictions were also rated, with Alderney - where Virgin Casino holds its license - being amongst the highest rated.  Finally, points were awarded to casinos whose representatives are responsive and efficacious to its players and affiliates. 

Bryan Bailey, Casinomeister founder and director, commented: "Virgin Games is one of the unsung gems in the online casino world. I was not surprised when they received a near perfect score with our new rating system."

Joshua Morris, Commercial Director of Virgin Games, added: "We are extremely pleased to have achieved the top spot in Casinomeister's highly anticipated new rating.  Casinomeister is very much the voice of the consumer in this industry - it keeps us on our toes and helps us to understand what players really think.

"The ranking we received goes to show that hard work and dedication to provide our customers with a fun, rewarding and secure platform to play on really is paying off and this is a credit to the team we have here at Virgin Casino.  Now we just need to work out where we dropped half a point so next time we can get 10 out of 10!"Founded in 2004, Virgin Games has over 1,000,000 players and over 350 games on its site. Through the introduction of a custom built Virgin Games platform in 2008, Virgin Games seeks to provide its players with the widest possible choice of casino games.  A growing selection of games can be found at Virgin Games from a number of producers including Microgaming, Playtech, Cryptologic, Freemantle, Ash Gaming and Mazooma Interactive Games.
