Case closed

Amount: C$11,619

Safety Index:Below average

Case summary

The player from Quebec had received a bonus from his VIP manager after depositing CAD 700, with unclear terms regarding cash-out limits. After meeting the rollover requirements, his balance had dropped significantly, and despite contacting support, he had received no assistance due to the lack of information about a cap. The casino had clarified that each bonus had a maximum cashout limit clearly indicated in the player's profile and that the player had previously used over 40 bonuses, implying awareness of such limits. We concluded that the casino's terms had been accessible and consistent, and the player’s complaint was marked as resolved after his confirmation.

hello ,

i was given a bonus directly from my vip manager via live chat on april 10th after i deposited 700 dollars.

the bonus was first sent to me by email but it didnt work so i contact live chat with a screenshot of it.

then my vip manager sent me the terms of the bonus itself :

"This is a 100% bonus with a maximum deposit limit of 700 CAD, a x50 rollover requirement, a 72-hour completion period, and a minimum deposit of 200 CAD."


there was NO mention of a cap and maximum cash out at all.


i ended up wagering the full amount and played a game called merge up 2. my balance was at 11619 dollars and as soon as i finished wagering it dropped to 3500 dollars.


i contacted live support shortly after and they said they cant do anything about it .


i saved all of the chats and the bonus screenshot as well. i believe this is extremely misleading , especially when they didnt include any information concerning the cap.

Dear danielschinasi84,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience. I have checked bonus policy, and this is what I found:

"For some bonuses, the company sets a maximum cashout amount, which is the maximum sum that can be transferred from the Bonus Balance to the Main Balance. For example, if the maximum cashout for a C$ 160 bonus is х10, the user can transfer not more than 10 х C$ 160 = C$ 1600."

I would like to emphasize that, according to our Fair Gambling Codex https://casino.guru/fair-gambling-codex-for-casinos#win-limits, we consider an imposed win limit to be unfair and predatory only when applied to a real money game. However, we accept bonus T&Cs that restrict the maximum cash out from bonus play.

To clarify your case:

  • Could you share the screenshot or the initial email with the bonus details you mentioned?
  • Can you confirm whether you received any terms and conditions regarding the bonus at any point before or after it was awarded?
  • If there is any additional information/communication with the Support that would support your case, please do not hesitate to send it to me along with the above-mentioned screenshots.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards

Petra

Hello!

Each bonus has a wagering limit (cashout) that can be received after successfully meeting the wagering requirements. In this case, the limit was 3,500 CAD, and this is exactly the amount the client received. The cashout amount is also indicated in the "Profile" → "Bonuses" section in the description of the active bonus. This information is always available to the player for review and can be additionally clarified via the website chat. A screenshot is attached as confirmation.

Additionally, we note that this is not the first bonus the player has wagered; therefore, they should have understood that bonuses have a maximum wagering (cashout) limit and where this information can be checked independently, since there were bonuses in the past that they canceled on their own, which is only possible in the указанном разделе, where the wagering limit information is also displayed.

As for the question regarding "capped," it is not entirely clear what is meant, since the player’s account is not blocked.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Dear Pinco Casino,

is it possible that the player has not see that?

Hello!

We see no point in arguing whether he could have failed to notice this. Over time, the player has received and used more than 40 bonuses, so considering such a possibility is already absurd. The platform rules and bonus wagering conditions do not change arbitrarily and are not so flexible that a maximum wagering limit would at any point be absent. If the player is interested in the most detailed terms, they should clarify them with customer support before claiming a bonus.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Dear Pinco Casino Team,

Thank you for your message.

I would like to clarify a few points regarding the screenshot you have shared, to ensure I understand it correctly.

Could you please explain what the "wagering limit" refers to in this context? Does it mean that the player received a bonus of 14.29, and the maximum amount that can be withdrawn from it is 142.90?

If that is the case, I would like to point out that from the player’s perspective, this terminology may be somewhat confusing, as it appears to function more like a maximum withdrawal limit.

Thank you very much in advance for your clarification.

Hello!

Yes, everything is correct. The information in the screenshot is stated literally and without ambiguous wording, as it վերաբers to a specific bonus. If the amount of the initial bonus was 14 rubles 29 kopecks, then the maximum amount that can be credited to the real balance after completing the wagering requirements in this case is 142 rubles 90 kopecks.

If the player does not understand the meaning of this line, they can always clarify the details via the website chat if the information in the bonus wagering rules was insufficient. However, we emphasize once again that the player has used more than 40 bonuses over the lifetime of the account, meaning they have definitely seen this line and understood how the "wagering limit" works, since they have successfully completed wagering on their bonuses several times.

Thank you for your cooperation.
