Case summary
The player from Germany had deposited €1000 for a welcome bonus but found his account suspended the next day after accumulating a bonus balance of €6160. He believed the closure was fraudulent as he was not allowed to complete the bonus wagering and requested reinstatement of the bonus balance. The issue was resolved when the casino reopened his account, allowing him to wager the bonus funds, and he successfully withdrew his winnings of €3770. However, the casino subsequently blocked him again, which was a decision beyond the Complaints Team's control. The player was advised that the core complaint regarding the bonus and winnings had been addressed satisfactorily.

However, the casino subsequently blocked him again, which was a decision beyond the Complaints Team's control. The player was advised that the core complaint regarding the bonus and winnings had been addressed satisfactorily.
Then I activated the bonus and continued playing with the bonus. With the bonus money, I was able to reach a bonus balance of €6160.
When I tried to log in the next day, I was shocked to find that my account had been suspended. I immediately sent an email to the casino asking why my account was suspended and why I wasn't given the chance to complete my bonus wagering.
Then I received the following response:
My account was closed, and my bonus balance of €6160 was canceled. I view this behavior as fraudulent because I was not given the chance to complete the bonus wagering and subsequently withdraw the real money winnings. The bonus was still valid for 10 days.
I demand that the casino reinstates the full bonus balance to my account, allowing me to complete the bonus wagering.
I hope you can help me resolve this case.
Best regards,
Michael
Hallo,
ich habe am 21.11.2024 für den 4. Willkommensbonus 1000€ eingezahlt und 1250€ Bonus erhalten.
Danach habe ich den Bonus aktiviert und mit dem Bonus weitergespielt. Mit dem Bonusgeld konnte ich auf ein Bonusguthaben von 6160€ kommen.
Als ich mich dann am nächsten Tag einloggen wollte, musste ich mit Erschrecken feststellen, dass mein Account gesperrt wurde. Ich habe sofort eine Email an das Casino geschrieben mit der Frage, warum mein Account gesperrt wurde und warum ich nicht die Möglichkeit bekommen habe meinen Bonus fertig umzusetzen.
Daraufhin habe ich dann folgende Antwort erhalten:
Mein Konto wurde geschlossen und mein Bonusguthaben von 6160€ storniert. Dieses Verhalten betrachte ich als betrügerisch, da mir die Möglichkeit genommen wurde, den Bonus fertig umzusetzen und anschließend den Echtgeldgewinn auszuzahlen. Der Bonus war noch 10 Tage gültig.
Ich verlange von dem Casino, dass das Bonusguthaben vollständig auf mein Konto zurück gebucht wird und ich dann die Möglichkeit erhalten, den Bonus umzusetzen.
Ich hoffe sie können mir helfen, diesen Fall zu klären.
I won a large amount with this bonus and had a bonus balance of over €6160. The bonus was canceled with only one intention: to avoid a large withdrawal. And in my opinion, that is fraud.
I did not receive the deposit back.
Real money and bonus are separate. I played Mines (Spribe) with the real money and was unable to win anything. With the bonus credit I was then able to win a large amount of €5000 on Limbo (Hacksaw) and then had a total bonus credit of €6160.
Mines (Spribe) and Limbo (Hacksaw) were the only games I played.
The wager progress was about 1000/90000€, so there were still about 89000€ to be wagered.
kind regards,
Michael
Hallo Tomas,
Ich habe mit diesem Bonus einen großen Betrag gewonnen und hatte ein Bonus Guthaben von über 6160€. Der Bonus wurde nur mit einer Absicht storniert und zwar um eine große Auszahlung zu vermeiden. Und das ist aus meiner Sicht Betrug.
Die Einzahlung habe ich nicht zurückerhalten.
Echtgeld und Bonus sind getrennt voneinander. Mit dem Echtgeld habe ich Mines (Spribe) gespielt und konnte keinen Gewinn erzielen. Mit dem Bonusguthaben konnte ich dann bei Limbo (Hacksaw) einen großen Betrag von 5000€ gewinnen und hatte dann ein Bonusguthaben von insgesamt 6160€.
Mines (Spribe) und Limbo (Hacksaw) waren die einzigen Spiele, die ich gespielt habe.
Der Wager Fortschritt war ca. 1000/90000€ es waren also noch ca. 89000€ umzusetzen.

It's Michal again and I have taken over this complaint. I have thoroughly examined your case, and as my colleague Tomas has indicated, we maintain that casinos reserve the right to close any player's account at their discretion, provided that no withdrawable balance is being withheld. I recognize that such measures may not contribute to an ideal user experience; however, these protocols are standard within the industry and are commonly found across nearly all online casinos, typically implemented for legitimate reasons. I will reach out to the casino to obtain further clarification on this issue.
We would like to invite Gamblezen Casino to join the conversation.
Dear Gamblezen Casino,
I would appreciate it if you could provide clarification regarding the reasons behind the closure of the player's account while they were wagering the bonus. If this information cannot be disclosed publicly, I kindly request that you send it, along with any relevant evidence, to my email at michal.k@casino.guru

Following our conversation with Michal, we have chosen to revisit our earlier decision. We have opened the account and permit the player to continue using the bonus funds for wagering. However, due to prior observations by our security team indicating a pattern of bonus hunting in the player's gameplay, we will impose specific limitations. These measures are intended to ensure the integrity of our platform and to confirm that the player is engaging in the game for enjoyment rather than solely for the purpose of exploiting bonuses.
Here are the conditions for the rest bonus funds
• Bonus wagering will be available on Pragmatic Play slots only
• Max bet 4 EUR

I have wagered the bonus according to the Gamble Casino's terms and conditions and now have a balance of €3770 that I would like to withdraw. The casino has now requested Mifinity and Jeton account statements for the last 6 months. I am surprised that the casino is requesting an account statement from Jeton, as I have never used Jeton to deposit or withdraw. I have only used Mifinity for all transactions at the casino. Can the casino please comment on this?
kind regards,
Michael
Hallo Michal,
Ich habe den Bonus nach den Bedingungen des Gamble Casinos umgesetzt und habe jetzt 3770€ Guthaben, das ich gerne auszahlen möchte. Das Casino hat jetzt Mifinity und Jeton Account Statements der letzten 6 Monate angefordert. Mich wundert, dass das Casino einen Account Statement von Jeton anfordert, da ich Jeton nie zum ein oder auszahlen verwendet habe. Ich habe nur Mifinity für alle Transaktionen beim Casino verwendet. Kann das Casino hierzu bitte Stellung beziehen?
I appreciate your feedback, and I'm pleased to see that things have progressed positively given the current situation. I look forward to reaching a satisfactory conclusion soon.

Thank you for the confirmation. I'm glad that our intervention helped to resolve the situation in a reasonable manner, and that you received the winnings. Unfortunately, the decision of whether they continue to offer their services to you or not is solely up to the casino. There is nothing we can do about it. Each casino has the right to close any player account at their discretion once financial matters are resolved. I think we can both agree that the most important aspect here is your successful re-enablement to utilize the bonus for wagering and the receipt of your winnings, which addresses the core of your complaint.
We'll go ahead and mark the complaint as 'resolved' in our system. We would like to thank both parties for their cooperation. If you ever encounter any issues with this or any other casino in the future, please feel free to reach out to our Complaint Resolution Center. We're here to help.
