Dear averymunoz950,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with Cafe Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can better understand the situation. 

  • Did the casino at any point explain why they consider the following rule breached? "Opening an account solely for the purpose of obtaining a Referral Bonus;"
  • Could you please clarify whether your granddaughter opened an account using her own device, using her own funds?

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Yea it was made with her own device , only thing I can think of is how they have the q,r code to deposit and since you can't scan your own q.r code money got sent to me and deposited just for the whole reason that you can't scan q,r code with your own device , I'm in my 70s I'm surprised I can even do the QR , was that a criminal act ?

I am sorry, I didn't completely understand your last comment. Whose payment method was used to deposit in your granddaughter's casino account?

I always ask my son to deposite for me since he has that whole Bitcoin thing and she also asked my son to deposit with Bitcoin thru his wallet so I guess that was how I broke the terms of conditions by asking some one to deposite money to my account and also deposited into my grand daughters account, which doesn't live at home with me by the way, THEY SHURE DONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT WHEN I. WAS DEPOSITEING !

Thank you for the explanation.

Based on your description of events, it seems you used your funds to gain the referring bonus. That is exactly what the casino forbids in their bonus terms and conditions, as each participants needs to use their own money to play.

Besides that, you should exclusively use a payment method that is associated with your person, which applies to your granddaughter as well. Failing to do so might cause you issues in any online casino. According to this universal rule, your granddaughter wouldn't be able to win and withdraw with your funds anyway.

Unfortunately, it would be impossible for us to argue in your favor under these circumstances since the source of funds is contested.

Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be rejected. I am sorry for the disappointing result of your complaint. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into issues with any online casino in the future.
