Case summary

The player from Portugal filed a complaint against Casinoandyou.com for the unfair confiscation of €1444 from his winnings. He claimed to have fulfilled all rollover requirements and argued that the casino had misleadingly failed to communicate the maximum conversion limit during the deposit and bonus activation. The casino provided evidence that the bonus was automatically credited only after the player agreed to receive bonuses and that the conversion limit was clearly stated in the publicly available terms and conditions. After reviewing all information and evidence, the complaint was closed as rejected since the casino was found to have acted in full compliance with the agreed terms. The player was advised that he could contact the licensing authority if he disagreed with the decision.

Hello,

I would like to file a complaint against the casino Casinoandyou.com (which operates under the license of CGA / Betandyou Group) due to the unfair confiscation of my winnings.

The facts are as follows:

1. i deposited 16€ and received a 100% bonus (16€), totaling 32€ initial bankroll.

2. the rollover requirement was €560.

(3) I played legitimately and complied with the rollover in full, having wagered a total of €1046 (186% of what was required), as shown in the attached screenshots.

4 At the time I finished the rollover, my bonus balance was €1460.

(5) As soon as the bonus was converted to a real balance, the casino removed all my profit and credited only €16 to my main account.

My argument:

The casino confiscated €1444 of my legitimate winnings. At no point during the deposit or bonus activation was the information clearly and prominently displayed that the maximum conversion would be limited to only 1x the bonus amount. I find this practice predatory and misleading.

In addition, the casino displays the Casino Guru seal in its footer to convey confidence to players, but acts contrary to the principles of fair play.

I request that the casino review this conversion and credit me with the winnings, since all the betting rules have been complied with.

I attach the screenshots showing the balance of €1460 before the conversion and the final balance of €16."

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I checked the Welcome Bonus T&Cs and I found this:


Once wagered, the remaining bonus funds are transferred to the customer's main account, at the moment of bonus completion, but not exceeding the initial bonus amount.


Sadly, there is not much I can do to support your case at this time, especially when the casino shares all the relevant information on the website. Casinos try to design their bonuses to be as attractive as possible, and setting a maximum cashout limit for bonus winnings is very common. Please, do not hesitate to let me know if there is anything else I could help you with, otherwise, I will be forced to close this complaint.

Thank you very much in advance for your understanding.

Best regards,

Attila

This information isn't clear and they claim that all I have to do is rollover, which I did.

Dear Sergiops,

Thank you for your reply.

To better assess the situation, could you please clarify the following:

  • Was the bonus activated automatically after your deposit, or did you manually choose to claim it?
  • Was there an option to decline the bonus before playing?
  • Before activating or using the bonus, was it possible to view the bonus Terms and Conditions, including the maximum cashout/conversion rule?

If possible, please also share screenshots showing how the bonus was advertised on the casino’s website.

I look forward to your response.

Best regards,

Attila

Good afternoon, the bonus was activated automatically without me accepting it, then when it was activated it remained in the account. It wasn't possible to view the terms and conditions in any way, only the rollover issue appeared there explicitly which was fulfilled. There was a minimum limit and I basically exceeded it by double. There was no part where you could refuse the bonus.

If there's anything else you need to know, the casino just told me that I had to exceed the rollover amount and that after that the bonus money would be transferred to real money. That's it, then they came up with stuff that's in the site's terms and conditions, I don't know what. They don't keep their word and they cheat people, that money was already mine and I want compensation from them and I'm not even asking for all the money but a large part of it I think they should.

Dear Player,

Thank you for sharing your concerns.

After reviewing your case, we would like to clarify that the bonus used was the "100% First Deposit Bonus". According to the bonus terms and conditions, the amount that can be transferred to the real balance after completing the wagering requirements is limited by the rules of this promotion.

In your case, the first deposit amount was €16. After the bonus wagering was successfully completed, the eligible amount transferred to your real balance was €16, in accordance with the bonus conditions accepted before claiming the promotion.

No winnings were confiscated outside of the bonus rules. The bonus was processed exactly as specified in the promotion terms.

We kindly ask you to review the bonus terms once again, particularly the section describing the conversion of bonus funds to real balance after wagering completion.

Should you require any further clarification, we will be happy to assist.

Best regards,

CasinoAndYou Team

Dear CasinoAndYou Team,

Could you please share a screenshot of the relevant terms with us?

Also, could you please clarify how the bonus could have been activated automatically, without the player’s consent and without giving the player the opportunity to read and accept the bonus terms and conditions beforehand?

Thank you very much in advance.

Good morning. They're just being liars, the only thing they informed you about was the rollover I went through. Those conditions they say only appeared later when it mattered.

What's the point of providing a bonus if you earn money with them fairly and then the bonus can't exceed the amount you deposit? Stop the bonuses and tell people the truth. Don't put in hidden terms and conditions and then come and say it's there and you're right, because you're not. As far as I'm concerned, the way you're going about this process, I'm not going to give up, so find another solution.

Dear Casino Guru Team,

Thank you for your message.

Please find attached the screenshots of the relevant Welcome Bonus terms and conditions.

We would like to clarify that the bonus in question was the 100% First Deposit Bonus, which is part of the CasinoAndYou Welcome Bonus package.

The promotion rules clearly explain how the bonus is credited:

"The bonus will be credited automatically after you make a deposit…"

However, automatic crediting does not mean that the bonus is applied without the player’s consent. The same terms clearly state that, before making a deposit, the player must agree to receive casino bonuses either in the account settings or directly on the Deposit page:

"Before you make a deposit, you must ensure that you have agreed to receive casino bonuses either in your account settings in My Account, or directly on the Deposit page."

Therefore, the bonus is credited automatically only after the player meets the promotion requirements and has agreed to receive casino bonuses.

In this case, the player made a first deposit of €16. According to the Welcome Bonus rules, the first deposit bonus is 100%, which means the player received a €16 bonus.

The rule regarding the transfer of bonus funds after wagering is also clearly stated in the same terms:

"Once wagered, the remaining bonus funds are transferred to the customer's main account, at the moment of bonus completion, but not exceeding the initial bonus amount."

Accordingly, after the wagering requirements were completed, €16 was transferred to the player’s main balance, which corresponds to the initial bonus amount and is fully in line with the published promotion terms.

We would also like to draw attention to the following rule:

"By participating in this promotion, you confirm that you have read and accepted its terms and conditions."

The Welcome Bonus terms are publicly available on our website and can be reviewed by players before participating in the promotion.

For this reason, we respectfully disagree with the player’s statement that the winnings were unfairly confiscated. The player’s bonus balance was processed strictly according to the applicable Welcome Bonus terms and conditions.

We kindly remind the player that bonus promotions are always governed by specific rules, including wagering requirements, eligibility criteria, and conversion limits. Players should carefully review the applicable terms before participating in any promotional offer.

Best regards,

CasinoAndYou Team

You are certainly entitled not to agree with our conclusion and you are free to reach out to licensing authority if you believe you are justified in your stands.
