LUCKY BLOCK CASINO IS NOT COVERED BY A UK GAMBLING COMMISSION LICENCE

Reel Crypto

This is normally the section where we’d give you a decent overview of Reel Crypto – a task that’s all the more important given that it’s the only other member of the Lucky Block Casino sister sites family save for Lucky Block itself. The issue is that we’re unable to do that because Reel Crypto doesn’t allow us access. We’re a UK-based site, and Reel Crypto is behind a geo-block. We have to give credit to the operator for that because that’s how things are supposed to work when a casino doesn’t have a UK Gambling Commission licence. From the name and logo of the casino, we can deduce that this is a cryptocurrency-focused, slots-based casino. As such, we imagine that it probably has a lot in common with Lucky Block. The fact that the casino has never been reviewed at Trustpilot suggests that it isn’t as popular as Lucky Block, so it might be the lesser of the two casinos.

Can Lucky Block Be Trusted?

★★★★★

Lucky Block is a 2-star trusted casino.

1. Licenses and Fines	Through its operator Entretenimiento Rojo B.V., Lucky Block holds a licence with Curacao Interactive Licensing N.V.
2. Accepts UK players?	The above licence isn’t sufficient to cover UK-based players, but Lucky Block allows access from the UK anyway.
3. Trustpilot Score	After over 200 reviews, Lucky Block has a decent Trustpilot average score of 3.3 out of 5.0.
4. Operator Name & Location	Entretenimiento Rojo B.V.is a Curacao-based company. There are known rogue traders and weak regulators in Curacao, making it a problematic location.
5. Bonus Terms	Wagering requirements on bonuses are x35, which is fine, but the information is buried deep within the casino’s full terms and conditions.
6. Customer Support	Live chat or email. No assistance over the phone.
7. Withdrawal Speed & Options	This is a crypto-only casino, and it processes withdrawals in five minutes.
8. Number of Sister Sites	As far as we can tell, there’s only one other member of the Lucky Block sister sites family.
9. Games portfolio	Live casino games, slots, crash games, sports betting and more.
10. On GamStop?	Lucky Block is not on GamStop.
Overall SCORE >	★★★★★ – 2/5 Stars

Lucky Block Review 2024

The “Block” in “Lucky Block Casino” refers to the blockchain. If you haven’t already picked up on the fact that this is a cryptocurrency casino from all the information we’ve provided above, you can take this as your final confirmation. The colour scheme at Lucky Block is dark, mean, and moody, and the (unexplained) presence of a photo of UFC World Heavyweight Champion Stipe Miocic on the homepage helps to sell the idea that this is a serious, gritty place to go about your crypto-based iGaming. It doesn’t look like the friendliest place to play, but let’s find out if its bark is worse than its bite.

Lucky Block Welcome Offers

As Lucky Block is a crypto casino, it can afford to be more generous than your average online casino when it comes to bonuses. That’s reflected in the welcome promotion that the casino offers. It’s a 200% matched deposit all the way up to a maximum of £25,000, and it comes with fifty free spins on selected slots. Given the size of the bonus fund, the free spins are pretty immaterial. However, the way the bonus works is extremely unusual and might take some getting your head around.

Rather than tying the entire bonus to a player’s first deposit, or even their first few deposits, Lucky Block instead releases the fund in ten increments. First, players need to make a deposit of £20 or more. After that point, the casino releases ten per cent of the total bonus amount (based on 200% of that initial deposit) each time the player wagers x6 the value of the opening deposit. If you’ve deposited £20, that means you have to wager £120 to get £2 in bonus funds. If you’re trying to get the full £25,000 out of the casino, you’re going to have to wager £300,000. If that sounds unreasonable, it’s because it is. The wagering requirements associated with the offer are set at x35.

Ongoing Promotions

The Lucky Block loyalty program is the star of the show when it comes to other promotions at this casino. It’s an eleven-step program, with all new players beginning at the “Rookie” level and then becoming “Jokers” when they’ve collected nine hundred loyalty points. To give you a sense of the scale of the program, the “Legend” level at the top has an entry requirement of seventy-five million points, with three points awarded for every £1 wagered on slots. The casino does an extremely poor job of explaining what comes with each level of the scheme, but we know that additional spins of the daily prize wheel are available to those at the higher levels, along with better-quality prizes on the wheel.

Some of the information in the loyalty scheme program appears to conflict with the information in the “VIP” section, which is divided into just six ranks and offers things like weekly cashback, rakeback (as if this were a different thing), dedicated account managers and more. Outside the schemes, there are deposit bonuses available every Wednesday, and special promotions attached to specific slots on weekends. The slots change every week, so the promotions page is worth checking regularly to stay on top of what’s available.

Pros and Cons of Lucky Block

Pros: The casino has been designed almost exclusively for players who prefer to spend crypto and receive crypto in return. Withdrawals, if approved, are processed within five minutes of a request being raised. You’ll struggle to find an online casino that can move things along faster than that. Beyond that, the casino offers a wide range of activities and has all the top games from all the top providers that you’d hope to find at a good iGaming site.

Cons: The promotions offered by Lucky Block are beyond confusing. The welcome promotion pays out its value so slowly and at such a high cost that it’s barely worth accepting the offer. There’s a VIP scheme and a loyalty scheme, and the terms of the schemes seem to contradict each other. The full terms and conditions of the bonuses are buried within the general casino terms and conditions rather than being openly declared. That’s shady, but not as shady as the fact that the casino accepts U.K. players without having a licence to do so.

Top Games at Lucky Block

You have to scroll further down the homepage of Lucky Block to find the games than you would at most online casinos, because the casino uses a lot of space to advertise its welcome promotion, and explain that it’s both a slots site and a sports betting site. That’s all the information you’ll find about sports betting on the homepage, though – it’s mentioned, but then treated as an afterthought. All the attention beyond that goes on slots, crash games and live dealer games.

The most popular of all the crash games launched to date is Aviator by Spribe, so it’s not surprising to find it in the “Popular” section. It’s sandwiched between two equally popular slots: Gates of Olympus by Pragmatic Play and Legacy of Dead by Play’n Go. After that, the top game from the Lucky Block live casino gets a mention – Xxxtreme Lightning Roulette by Evolution Gaming. The section is rounded out by Sakuta Fortune by Quickspin and Book of Ra Deluxe by Novamatic. Below the top games section you’ll find a live top row of new releases serving as confirmation that everything at Lucky Block is bang up to date.

Withdrawal Processing and Support

There’s very little point in playing at Lucky Block if you’re not into crypto – especially given that crypto is the only way the casino pays out. It says “No crypto, no problem” on its homepage and displays the logos of Mastercard and Visa, but only alongside a link inviting you to buy crypto so you can play. Every major crypto (and quite a lot of coins that exist outside the crypto mainstream) is accepted here, and the casino claims that the majority of withdrawals are processed within five minutes.

Customer Support and Licensing

Live chat can be accessed through the widget that remains in view in the bottom-right corner of the Lucky Block website at all times, and if that doesn’t work for you, you can send an email to [email protected]. There’s a separate email address for complaints:- [email protected]. The casino is covered by the licence that Entretenimiento Rojo B.V. holds with Curacao Interactive Licensing N.V. under account number 5536/JAZ, and this licence also covers the Lucky Block sister sites. However, the licence doesn’t offer any protection to anyone in the U.K., or in quite a few other regulated territories.

Lucky Block – The Verdict

This is one for the hardcore crypto enthusiasts only. Fiat currencies aren’t welcome. While the selection of games and other things to do at the casino is impressive, we’re not impressed with the way it lays out its bonuses. The welcome promotion is so far away from what it’s advertised as that we think it’s borderline misleading, and there’s conflicting information between the stated VIP and loyalty schemes, making it hard to know what to trust. Of course, the fact that Lucky Block operates in territories that it has no legal permission to enter makes it reasonable to ask whether the casino can be trusted in any way at all.

What are players saying about Lucky Block Casino?

Here are our condensed/ reader’s digest summaries of recent player reviews of Lucky Block Casino.

• 01-Apr-2024 by Issac:
  I’ve been a regular since October, but the moment a real issue pops up, customer service turns a blind eye. Had a game glitch and all my painstakingly collected bonus spins disappeared into thin air. Tried to get them to fix it, but it seems they’re more interested in their glitches (or should I say “scams”?) than customer loyalty. Looking for other places to gamble now. – source: Trustpilot

  Been eyeing their progress closely, and they’re ticking all the right boxes on their roadmap. In this cutthroat industry, you’ve got to stay sharp. Just wish their customer service was a tad quicker on the draw. – source: Trustpilot
• 29-Mar-2024 by Federico:
  The support team here is simply the best. They’ve always been super quick to sort out any issues I’ve had. Big thanks! – source: Trustpilot
• 28-Mar-2024 by James:
  Since jumping ship from Bet Fury to Lucky Block, I haven’t looked back. Lucky Block outclasses them in every way. Fully endorse and highly recommend! – source: Trustpilot
• 26-Mar-2024 by James J:
  There’s nothing like laying a bet, and Lucky Block is where it’s at for me. Managed to score some wins with their live sports betting. Super quick payouts and the interface? Chef’s kiss. – source: Trustpilot
• 25-Mar-2024 by Catrina:
  Blown away by the game variety and those live casinos – just wow. But it’s been my second payout attempt, and I’ve hit snags both times. They always want “just one more thing,” leading to delays. Slightly irked now. – source: Trustpilot
• 24-Mar-2024 by Dan:
  A big fat warning to all: Steer clear of these charlatans! Tried my luck on a slot with an extra bet for bonuses – a hundred spins and zilch. It’s like they’ve turned off the RTP at this no-hope Curacao site. Avoid at all costs! – source: Trustpilot
• 23-Mar-2024 by Christopher:
  Missed the window to swap my L1 to L2 tokens because the opportunity was only open for two weeks. I was off enjoying a holiday and missed the memo. Any chance I can still make the swap? The timeframe was just too tight. – source: Trustpilot
• 20-Mar-2024 by Bendi:
  What a circus! Tried to withdraw my XRP and hit a wall. Support’s advice felt like a wild goose chase with tag numbers. It’s as if they’re playing games to keep you from getting your money. Shame on them. – source: Trustpilot
• 20-Mar-2024 by Virginie:
  Signing up was a breeze, and it’s been smooth sailing enjoying the games. One nitpick: customer support could do with sending out helpful articles so we’d be less reliant on them. It’d be great to troubleshoot on our own while waiting for a reply. – source: Trustpilot
