Case summary

The player from the Netherlands faced confiscation of his winnings by KingdomCasino6 after using a bonus buy feature while playing under a 100% casino bonus. He argued that the rules regarding maximum bets and bonus buys were unclear and inconsistently communicated by support, which led him to believe he was playing within the allowed limits. He requested the casino to reconsider their decision and release his winnings. The complaint was closed due to the player's lack of response to requests for further information and evidence, preventing further investigation or resolution at that time.

Hello,


I would like to file a complaint regarding the confiscation of my winnings by KingdomCasino6.


I received a 100% casino bonus with wagering requirements and proceeded to complete the wagering while playing slot games. During this process, I used bonus buy (feature buy) options with a base bet of €0.60.


After completing the wagering, I requested a withdrawal. Initially, I was informed by support that the delay was related to the payment provider, and there was no mention of any rule violation at that time.


Later, my withdrawal was rejected, and my winnings were confiscated based on two rules:


* Clause 7.16 (maximum €2 bet)

* Clause 7.9 (prohibition of bonus buy features)


I would like to raise the following concerns:


---


1. Unclear definition of "bet" in relation to bonus buys


The terms state that the maximum allowed bet is €2, but they do not clearly define how this applies to bonus buy features.


I understood my bet to be €0.60 per spin. There is no explicit statement in the terms that a bonus buy should be considered as the total purchase amount rather than the base bet.


Additionally, during my conversation with support, it was acknowledged that this rule is unclear and may need to be updated. This indicates that the terms are ambiguous.


---


2. Inconsistent communication and reasoning


During my interaction with support:


* The focus was initially on the €2 max bet rule

* Bonus buys were described as being "considered a bet"

* The rule was acknowledged as unclear


At no point was I clearly informed that:


> Bonus buys are strictly prohibited under a separate rule (7.9)


Only after the withdrawal was rejected was this rule cited as an additional reason for confiscation.


This appears to be inconsistent and unclear enforcement of the terms.



3. Lack of system restrictions or warnings


The platform allowed me to:


* Use bonus buy features without restriction

* Without any warning that this action was prohibited


If such actions are strictly forbidden, it would be reasonable for the system to prevent or warn against them. This was not the case.



4. Good faith gameplay


I played in good faith and believed I was complying with the rules:


* My base bet was €0.60, well below the €2 limit

* I did not attempt to exploit the system



Conclusion


I believe the confiscation of my winnings is unfair due to:


* Ambiguous wording of the €2 max bet rule

* Inconsistent communication from support

* Lack of clear enforcement or system prevention


I kindly request that the casino reconsider their decision and pay out my winnings.


Thank you for your time and assistance.

Dear quin_2002,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience.

Our position is closely explained in the Fair Gambling Codex: https://casino.guru/fair-gambling-codex-for-casinos#max-bets

The max bet rule is, in fact, an industry standard, as is the casino’s right to confiscate a player’s winnings from bonus play after breaking this rule. We prefer not to go against industry standards by penalizing casinos that enforce the maximum bet rule.

The maximum permitted stake while wagering an active bonus also applies to bonus rounds purchased within the game (bonus buys). This means that the total cost of the bonus buy, not only the base spin value, is considered the stake for the purpose of the maximum bet rule. The purchase and/or activation of in-game bonuses, features, or free spins while having an active bonus is prohibited.

However, if you feel you have been accused mistakenly, feel free to forward me your game history together with a link to the specific bonus you redeemed and played. My email address is petra.h@casino.guru.

  • Additionally, could you please clarify if you were playing slot games or placing sports bets?

If there is any other relevant communication between you and the casino, please send that as well.

Best regards,

Petra
