Hello!
I have a balance of €71.01, all of which I deposited a few months ago. I've decided I don't want to play it and I want to withdraw it to my account. I have been informed that it’s not possible and that I need to play every euro I deposited before I can withdraw the money. I find this neither coherent nor logical. I am firmly requesting that the money be refunded to my account.

Dear viccroger,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I have checked the terms and conditions, and this is what I found (here):
It is not unusual for a casino to have this rule. Some casinos require deposit wagering of 1x, some 3x or 5x, but you can find casinos with even higher wagering requirements for real money.
Mandatory real money wagering has been introduced by the AML (Anti-Money Laundering) Regulations for the Gaming and Gambling Industry and is usually set by the Licensing Authority. All serious and licensed casinos have to comply and follow these policies.
Please let us know if this explanation was satisfactory. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Petronela

So I understand that I can't withdraw my money but I have to play it all?

Hi viccroger,
That is correct. Any deposit of real money must be wagered at least once before you can request a withdrawal of your winnings.
Please keep me informed about any further developments.
Thank you.
