Jokery Casino - Player faces withdrawal issues with a closed account.

Resolved
Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: €1,950

Jokery Casino
Safety Index:High

Case summary

The player from Germany filed a complaint against Jokery Casino for the fraudulent cancellation of his €2,500 withdrawals after he had canceled an unused bonus balance. He argued that all winnings came solely from his real money deposit, and thus, he requested the immediate payout of his legitimate funds. We found that the casino's interface and communication had led the player to reasonably believe his real balance was separate from the bonus and unaffected by the cancellation. Consequently, we did not agree with voiding the player's winnings and recommended the casino reinstate the funds. Jokery Casino complied by reinstating the voided funds and confirmed the player could withdraw them without bonus wagering requirements. The complaint was then closed as resolved, after the player confirmed the receipt of his funds.

Dear DGTx,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem with Jokery Casino regarding the cancellation of your withdrawals. I have also found this rule in their terms and condition:

23.6. A player may cancel an active bonus at any time from the Profile section or by contacting us via Live Chat or email at support@jokery2590.com. By canceling the bonus, the whole amount in the Bonus balance and all winnings accumulated during the bonus period will also be voided.

Additionally, bonus terms and conditions state:

12. The wagering requirement at Jokery is 35 times the initial amount of the deposit and bonus received.

To better understand your situation, could you please provide answers to the following questions:

  • Have you fully wagered your deposit, please?
  • Have you attempted to contact Jokery Casino's support regarding the cancellation of your withdrawals? If yes, what was their response?
  • Could you please forward all communications you have had with this casino to katarina.d@casino.guru. This includes emails, live chat transcripts, and any accompanying screenshots.

Kindly notify me here in the thread once the email has been sent.

Your cooperation in providing these details will help us investigate and work towards a resolution. We want to ensure that we have all the relevant information to address your complaint effectively.

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

Best regards,

Katarina

Hello, thank you for your help.


No, I didn't use up the entire deposit amount. I made the winnings solely with the deposit amount, not with the bonus balance.


Yes, the support team also pointed out the terms and conditions. Nevertheless, the website is structured in such a way that it suggests (as in most other casinos) that you first play with your real money balance and then with your bonus balance.


Why list REAL BALANCE and bonus credits if they are ultimately just bonus credits? The answer to this question can only be one reason – to trick players into canceling the bonus and then cheating them out of their winnings.


1. Why wasn't it indicated when the bonus was cancelled that my Real Balance would also be cancelled, and not just the bonus balance?


2. What is the point of a real balance if it isn't actually a real balance?


3. Why was the Real Balance still available and I was able to withdraw it after I cancelled the bonus? If the Real Balance had been linked to the bonus, it should have disappeared as well.


4. Why would I cancel €2500 bonus credit when I'm about to meet the wagering requirements? I only did it because the website is deliberately designed to be deceptive and manipulate players into making this decision.


I don't currently have any screenshots; I could only request the logs in the forum.


Best regards

Mike

This is how the balance is distributed. I only played with my real money balance – the bonus money remained untouched.


How could anyone possibly think that real money balances aren't also real money balances? Why isn't it listed under bonus balances?


Correct - a scam.

Hello DGTx,


I am sorry to hear about your troubles. I am Martin and I will be taking care of your complaint from now on. As the first order of business, I would like to invite the Jokery Casino representative to enter the discussion.


Dear casino representative,


could you please check the case and explain the matter to us? Is there some sort of a warning that displays in situations when the player requests to withdraw funds while wagering is not met just yet? Are you able to provide us and the player with a screenshot of communication with support?


Please note, that from the evidence at our disposal, we cannot agree with voiding the player's funds.


Thank you in advance for providing us with your view of the issue.

Hello,

Thank you for the opportunity to provide further information.

Please note that the bonus refers to the promotion you activated. Since your deposit is linked to the promotion, the corresponding terms and conditions apply to both the deposit and bonus balance. As a result, the wagering requirements are calculated on the combined amount.

Additionally, when attempting to make a withdrawal, you are notified via a pop-up message indicating that an active bonus is in place.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Best Regards,

Jokery Team

It would be very nice if my statement would at least be addressed to some extent. I described in detail how the payment was made – as always, Jokery simply ignores this statement and instead responds with empty phrases and lies.


Had they read my statement, they would know that I canceled the bonus because my balance was listed under REAL BALANCE, not under bonus balance. Therefore, when I canceled the bonus, I only received a message that the €50 bonus balance would expire; my real balance was never mentioned. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to withdraw the €2000, would I?


I still suspect this is a deliberate fraudulent scheme, precisely designed to trick users into canceling the bonus under false pretenses.


I have good legal expenses insurance – what options do I have under international law to take action against this casino?


Best regards,

Mike

Dear casino representative,


thank you for your response. In order to assess this case properly, I would kindly like to ask you to comment and offer your perspective on the following points:


Firstly, as per the pop-up warning provided by the player, only the voiding of the bonus balance, not the real balance is mentioned. This means that we cannot agree with fully voiding the balance.


Additionally, the player states that after cancelling the bonus, the real balance remained withdrawable until the withdrawal was manually canceled by the casino. This behavior would further support the interpretation that the real balance was separate. We believe this presentation can understandably lead players to believe that their real funds are not tied to bonus funds and their terms.


The player has also not received any sort of advantage from the bonus, as he hasn't used the bonus balance. Can you please specify how much money he has wagered in order to get his winnings?


Thank you in advance for more clarifications from your side.

Hello,

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to clarify this matter further.

We would like to address your concerns regarding the wagering process. Whenever a promotion is active, the wagering progress is always visible and continuously updated in the "My Bonuses" section of the account.

As outlined in the Terms and Conditions, the wagering requirement applies to both the deposit and the bonus amounts. This means that the funds displayed during an active promotion are still considered part of the wagering cycle and, therefore, remain subject to the promotional rules.

Please note that during an active bonus, the deposited funds are used first, followed by the bonus funds. Additionally, if you choose to cancel the promotion after wagering has already begun, any winnings accumulated during this period will be forfeited, even if the bonus balance itself has not yet been used.

We appreciate your feedback and remain available should you need any further clarification.

Best Regards,

Jokery Team

Dear Casino representative,


Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.


We believe the player cancelled the promotion mainly because of the information he received from support. He believed that cancelling the bonus would not affect the real balance. In addition to this, the interface also showed the funds under Real Balance, the cancellation pop-up referenced only the bonus balance, and the real balance initially remained withdrawable afterwards.


Under these circumstances, we simply do not agree with voiding the player’s winnings. We therefore recommend that the casino reinstates the bonus to its original form, allowing the player to complete the wagering under correct conditions.


Please let us know your position.

Thank you very much for the clarification and your cooperation. The money has been credited, but there's no bonus shown in the account (and therefore no bonus wagering requirements) – does that mean the money is now available for withdrawal?
