Case summary

The player from Germany faced account closure due to allegations of "fraud" and "bonus abuse," resulting in the confiscation of all his winnings, despite having followed the bonus rules and never using the bonuses at other casinos. He said his account was closed after about three weeks, with the notice sent by email, and his winnings came only from slots using a bonus that he had wagered through. We contacted the casino and asked for clarification, but it only said the details were being handled by email and did not provide a public response. Since no further relevant evidence or explanation was received, we closed the complaint as unresolved.

Dear all,


I have deposited 3 times in this casino with 2 deposits having a bonus attached. I have wagered all the money I had to and even wagered a lot more than that and accumulated much of the winnings with no active bonus. They closed my account for "fraud" and "bonus abuse" and took all the winnings. The bonuses I used for deposits I have never used on any other casino before and it was explicitly available to me. I didnt violate any of the bonus rules either, yet they close my account and void all the winnings.


Thank you for your attention.

Hello Tomas,


I think I played there about 3 weeks. It was closed yesterday. They told me via Email. The winnings resulted only from slots. I used a bonus, yes, but I completed the wager requirements and even continued after.

This is the email they sent me.


Best Regards

Dear stieventammen,

Unfortunately, since we have not received any further response or relevant details/supporting evidence from the casino regarding the issue, we cannot continue resolving this complaint, and we are forced to close it as ‘unresolved’, which will influence the casino’s rating in a negative way.

There is one more option for how you can try to resolve your issue or speed up the process - I recommend you contact the gaming authority the casino is regulated by and submit a complaint directly to them. You can find more about their complaint resolution process HERE, and general information regarding complaint processes with regulators HERE.

In case of any questions or news from the regulator, do not hesitate to contact me at martina.b@casino.guru

I wish I could be of more help. I sincerely hope you will not come across a problem like this again.

The casino can reopen this complaint anytime.
