Case summary

The player from Germany had successfully registered at Lex Casino and won €45.78 from no-deposit free spins, but her withdrawal request of €457.80 was declined. The casino had required her to make a deposit and wager it three times before allowing the withdrawal, leading her to question the legitimacy of the bonus terms. The Complaints Team had reviewed the situation and confirmed that the casino's actions were in accordance with its bonus terms. Due to the player's lack of response to further inquiries, the complaint was ultimately rejected.

Hello,


I first heard about Lex Casino on Instagram with bonus offers and no-deposit free spins. After successfully registering with a code, I would receive 100 no-deposit free spins. Bonus rules: Winnings must be wagered 45 times, and the maximum withdrawal amount is 10 times the winnings.

I won €45.78 from the free spins and wagered it 45 times. The amount was credited as real money. When I tried to make a withdrawal of €457.80 (I'm verified), it was declined.

So I contacted the live chat to ask why. The response I received was:


"For a successful withdrawal, you must make a deposit of €457.80 and wager it 3 times on slot games.

In the event of repeated use of cumulative no-deposit bonuses on the company's website without making a cash deposit in between, the casino reserves the right to require the user to make a deposit equal to the wagered bonus funds in their balance at the time of the withdrawal request (no less than €10) and to wager the deposit three times. If the user refuses to make a deposit, all received cumulative no-deposit bonuses and all associated winnings will be considered void.


In plain language, I had to deposit €525 and wager it three times before I could make a withdrawal.

In my opinion this is a Lock Bonus scam.


Is this the normal procedure? Do I have a chance of getting the money here?


Thanks!

Dear mizila,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to clarify your situation.

  • Have you passed the full KYC verification?

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

Good day,


Attached you will find the bonus history.


  1. No deposits were made.
  2. I only used one bonus code (orangemorange).
  3. I have passed the verification completely.


Thank you very much for your effort!


Best regards

Celina

Thank you for your reply. Could you please specify if you have accounts in any other casinos owned by GALAKTIKA N.V.? The list of related casinos can be found at the bottom of our review here: https://casino.guru/lex-casino-review

Have you activated any no-deposit bonuses in these other casinos?

Hello Veronica,


Yes, I still have an account with JET. I used the bonus there, too, but didn't wager it.

I have checked the Bonus Terms and Conditions, and this is what I found:

In case of a repeated use of no deposit cumulative bonuses on the Company’s sites (GALAKTIKA N.V., Carrer N.V.) without making a cash deposit in the interval between using bonuses, the Casino reserves the right to ask the user to make a deposit equal to the wagered bonus funds on their balance at the time the withdrawal request is submitted (not less than 10 €), and ask to wager the deposit three times. If the user refuses to make a deposit, all received no deposit cumulative bonuses and all related winnings shall be deemed void.

Please keep in mind that no deposit bonuses are essentially free promotional offers from the casino. Because they are not linked to a real-money deposit, casinos often apply stricter rules and limitations to prevent abuse. While these rules may sometimes feel unfavorable, they are commonly used to ensure fair use of such bonuses and protect the casino’s promotional integrity.

If you are not willing to make the required deposit in line with the casino’s terms and conditions, I’m afraid we won’t be able to assist you further. In this case, the casino is acting within its stated rules, and we have no grounds to dispute their decision.

Thank you for your understanding.

Just to make sure I understand correctly. So I now have to deposit what I've won and what I have in my balance (€457.80). And then wager it three times before I can withdraw anything?


Thanks for the brief explanation.

Yes, based on the casino’s bonus terms and our understanding of your case, the casino is asking you to make a deposit in the amount equal to your current balance (€457.80) and then wager this deposit three times before being able to proceed with a withdrawal. This is a condition they apply when a player has used multiple no-deposit bonuses across casinos operated by the same company without making a real-money deposit in between.

Unfortunately, if you’re not comfortable meeting this condition, the casino may consider the bonus and winnings void, and we won’t be able to push the case further on your behalf.
