MyStake Casino - Player's winnings have been confiscated.

Closed
Our verdict

Player stopped responding

Amount: £2,000

MyStake Casino
Safety Index 9.7 Very high

Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom disputed the unauthorized confiscation of €2,000 by MyStake Casino, claiming he had funded his session entirely with cash and had not participated in any bonus-related gameplay. He demanded that the casino provide evidence of any bonus activity related to his account or restore the confiscated winnings. We reviewed the casino’s evidence and found that an active 50% Weekend Reload Bonus was in place, and the casino’s terms limited withdrawal from bonus funds to 10 times the bonus amount. As a goodwill gesture, the casino paid €1,000 instead of the €220 maximum, but the complaint was closed because he did not confirm receipt or respond to our follow-up messages.

Subject: Unauthorized Confiscation of €2,000 Winnings (Username: Tommyvegas02317)

Complaint Details:

I am filing a formal dispute against MyStake Casino for the unauthorized removal of €2,000 from my account balance on 10/08/2026 at 11:59:11, labeled in my ledger as an "Admin CashDesk Withdraw".

Key Facts:

Pure Cash Session: My session was funded entirely with a raw cash deposit. I did not opt-in, activate, or play with any bonus or promotional balance.

The Casino's Stance: MyStake support (Agent Daisy) claims the €2,000 was removed due to a maximum cash-out limit on "bonus-related gameplay." They also claim they made an "exception" to let me keep €1,000.

My Counter-Claim: Because I played with pure cash, applying a restrictive maximum cash-out cap retroactively is a predatory and unfair practice.

My Demands:

I challenge MyStake to publicly provide the exact promotional log, opt-in timestamp, and technical proof showing a bonus was active during this specific cash deposit. If they cannot produce this concrete evidence, I request that the confiscated €2,000 be immediately restored to my balance or paid out to my original payment method

Thanks for the explanation.

Are there any details regarding bonus activation and bonus cancelation from the period relevant to your case?

From the screenshots you provided, it's impossible to establish a timeline of events about when you deposited, which bonuses were active, and when.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Greetings,


I hope you are well.


Please note that the player had an active 50% Weekend Reload Bonus at the time. According to the terms and conditions of this bonus, the maximum amount that can be withdrawn from the bonus funds is 10 times the bonus amount.


In this case, the player was eligible to withdraw a maximum of EUR 220, as the bonus amount was EUR 22. However, as an exception, we allowed the player to withdraw EUR 1,000.


The remaining funds were deducted as excessive winnings. Please note that this procedure is outlined in the bonus rules available on our website.


We will provide proof of the deducted funds and the withdrawn amount via email. This documentation will also confirm that the player realized the bonus and funds were from it.


Thank you for your understanding.

Could you please confirm whether you have received the €1,000 payment?

I look forward to your response.
