Simsinos Casino - Player's earnings have been confiscated.

Claim for unfair cancellation of earnings and abusive bonus practices

I am contacting you to file a formal complaint regarding the cancellation of my earnings and the systematic rejection of my withdrawal requests, which I consider to be an abusive and unjustified practice.

The day I registered at the casino, I made my initial deposit of €20. I automatically received an additional €20 bonus, without being offered the option to decline it or clearly notifying me of any specific limitations associated with it.

I played a total of €40 on the "Wanted Dead or a Wild" slot, unaware that it was prohibited with an active bonus. With just €5 of my real balance, I earned a €100 profit, and later won €1,000 playing the "Mental 2" slot. I subsequently made a second deposit of €200, which was also automatically bonused. Again, I used that money (mostly my real balance) to continue playing, reaching a total balance of approximately €3,400.

I received a message about the 100% bonus with the deposit WITHOUT WAGERING REQUIREMENT, and the first message I received was that I exceeded the wagering requirement by €46 and played a prohibited machine.

After requesting a withdrawal, delays began due to supposed account verifications. Finally, after weeks of no progress, I was notified that all my winnings had been confiscated, leaving me with only the €200 from my second deposit. The reason given was that I had played prohibited games while the bonus was active, according to the bonus terms.

I consider this decision to be abusive for the following reasons:

The bonus was activated without informed consent or a clear option to opt out.

The list of prohibited games is extensive and inconspicuous, and is not revealed when launching the game.

The policy of mixing real balance and bonus balance from the outset without clear information creates confusion and encourages situations like this.

I played mostly with my real money and won legitimately.

They made me waste weeks with deliberate delays, only to finally cancel my balance without clear warning.

Dear jesusmorente001,

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

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

• Could you please advise how long you have been playing at the casino?
• Is your player's account accessible to you? Can you log in?
• Could you please forward the email in which the casino specifies the accusations against you?
• Send emails or chat transcripts to my email at tomas@casino.guru, or post screenshots here

Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Stay cautious and contact us directly if you have any doubts.

I've been playing at the casino for a month. I can access my player account. I uploaded the Gmail they sent me here. It's the €2,000 it says, and another €1,000 they took from me that I hadn't yet withdrawn. Instead of withdrawing the €200 I deposited, they canceled all my withdrawals and left the money in my account for me to spend. They seem like scum to me. I'm attaching the accusations and also the Gmail they sent me about the bonus I used, supposedly with no betting limit. I don't know what that means to them... Now you have to read all the terms, since they don't warn you in any way that you're gambling your money on prohibited slots. They let you gamble, so if you lose, they keep the money, and if you win, they keep the money too. It's absolutely absurd. I don't wish anyone harm, but this is taking advantage of people. If they don't give me that money, I wish I could have a coffee in person with the director of this shitty company. Best regards, and thanks for your help!

Thanks for your reply.

Please check our review of the casino and discover which rules of the casino we consider unfair when used against players:

https://casino.guru/simsinos-casino-review#tab=js-tab-reputation

Our position regarding the breach of max bet rules 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, just as the fact that a casino has the right to seize the player's winnings from bonus play after breaking this rule. We prefer not to go against industry standards by penalizing casinos that use the maximum bet rule against players from time to time.

• Were you aware of breaching the maximum bet rule in this online casino? Have you breached this rule once or multiple times?

Looking forward to your reply.

Dear jesusmorente001,

We are extending the timer by 7 days. Please, be aware that in case you fail to respond in the given time frame or don’t require any further assistance, we will reject the complaint.

If they send you an email that says "no wagering requirements" the last thing you imagine is that it has requirements, even so that clause was violated when I had already won with all the bets at € 0.20-0.40, when I had about € 2300 or so if I bought bonuses but I lost money, I did not win anything buying bonuses, also I did not know that I was using any bonus because if I deposit € 200 well I think that even if they give me bonuses I can play my € 200 wherever I want and in the slots I want, that's why I did not look if I wanted to buy a bonus or not, also even if I have played "prohibited" slots if they let you play it is because you can, or that is assumed. Because then if you make a deposit of € 50 for example, they give you a bonus, and you lose the money they do not return it to you even if it is a slot "prohibited on the list" but if you win they take away your winnings, so you always lose right? I did a "bonus hunt" with MY €200, which obviously when you deposit money with that money you don’t think it has restrictions, and even having them on top of it in the slots where I won the most money were not the "prohibited" ones, they were others but for playing "without knowing that you can’t" like Wanted for example and on top of that losing what I put into that slot they take away everything else, I don’t know what clauses you agree with this casino but in my opinion it’s a scam, you lose or you lose.

I understand your point of view, as it's not always clear whether the bonus terms and conditions apply or not.

In general, you should be careful whenever the bonus is in play and left to be wagered. At this point, we would confront the casino and ask for more information to determine whether your play led to an unfair advantage or not; however, the casino has a no-reaction policy toward our complaint resolution center, so this might not be possible.

We are forced to close your complaint as "unresolved". This will affect the overall rating of the casino. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue; however, the decrease in rating caused by unresolved complaints could change the casino's approach.

Regrettably, it seems to be a common practice of Simsinos Casino to ignore us completely in our attempts to mediate any kind of issue.

We have sent numerous emails and tried to communicate with live chat representatives as well as with affiliate team members. Unfortunately, all efforts to resolve any kind of issue have died as the complaints grew in number. We strictly recommend staying away from Simsinos Casino. I wish I could be of more help.

The casino can reopen this complaint anytime.
