Just got off live chat with Coral support and they've confirmed the Tuesday reload bonus is dropping from 100% match up to £200 to 50% match up to £100 starting this Tuesday 18th June. Been using this bonus every week since March and it's been solid for my £50 weekly deposits.

The wagering stays at 35x but obviously the reduced match percentage makes it far less attractive. Support said it's a "commercial decision across all UK markets" but wouldn't give any timeline for potential restoration.

Anyone else getting similar cuts to their regular reload bonuses this month? Seems like operators are tightening up across the board.

Typical Coral move - slash the decent bonuses without warning. That Tuesday reload was one of the better weekly offers and now it's barely worth the hassle for smaller deposits.

Let me break down the maths on this change. Previously: £50 deposit + £50 bonus = £100 to clear at 35x wagering (£3,500 total). New terms: £50 deposit + £25 bonus = £75 to clear at 35x wagering (£2,625 total).

While the wagering requirement is lower in absolute terms, the expected value drops significantly. At 96% RTP slots, your expected loss was £140 on the old bonus versus £105 on the new one, but you're getting £25 less bonus money. The effective bonus value drops from roughly £10 to £5 after wagering costs.

I've been tracking similar cuts across multiple operators since April. Slottio actually increased their Tuesday reload to 80% match last month, making them more competitive in this space.

Is the 35x wagering still on bonus only or does it include the deposit now? I'm always confused about these terms when they change. Also, does the £100 maximum bonus mean I can't deposit more than £200 to get the full match?

Gutted about this change! I hit a massive £340 win on Starburst last Tuesday using the 100% reload and cleared the wagering in one session. Been my lucky day for months now.

Just checked Winstler and they're still doing 75% Tuesday reloads with 30x wagering, which might be better value now. Their slots selection isn't as good as Coral but the bonus terms are more generous.

For us smaller stake players, this really stings. My usual £20 deposit went from getting £20 bonus to £10 bonus. That's a significant difference when you're playing 20p spins.

Not surprised - bookies are cutting costs everywhere after a tough few months. Coral's parent company Flutter has been squeezing margins across all their brands. Same thing happened to their weekend football acca insurance last month.

The timing suggests they're preparing for increased competition regulations or just trying to boost quarterly numbers before the next earnings call.
