Dear Sir or Madam, I received a 400% deposit bonus. I deposited €30 and received an additional €120. However, I had to wager €4,800, which I fortunately managed! Unfortunately, I only made one mistake during the bonus period. Instead of the maximum bet of €5, I accidentally bet €6 on a live game. It was really unintentional, because that was the only bet that exceeded the limit by €1. Otherwise, I stuck to the rules the whole time and never played with a bet higher than €3. I understand that I violated the bonus terms and conditions. I apologized and insist that I do not receive the full €4,500. I would be happy if you could help me, because it's not a small amount of money, and it feels like a scam. I would be happy to find a compromise between us, but they don't want to know anything about it. I find this very inhumane and unfair. You are my last hope, please. As I said, I'm willing to receive an offer for the 4,500, even if it's not the full amount, I'd still be happy. Please take a look at the case.

Best regards

Hello,

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

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

  • Did the casino confiscate your winnings and accuse you of breaching the maximum bet rule?

Our position is closely explained in 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.

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

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

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

Best regards,

Tomas

For us to investigate the matter, we would like to ask you to request your game history from the time the bonus was in play.

Kindly contact the casino support and request the relevant records.

After you receive them, forward the file to my email at tomas@casino.guru

If the casino ignores your request or refuses to provide you with the game history, save your conversation with them on the topic as evidence.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Dear Flopsiii18,

My name is Michal, and I will be assisting you with your complaint from this point forward. I have gone through your case, including the game log you kindly provided. As you are already aware, one of the bets placed exceeded the maximum limit allowed under the bonus terms. Since all actions within the account, including the bet settings, are managed by the player, these rules continue to apply as agreed to during registration and when the bonus was claimed.

Nevertheless, I will be contacting SpinJo Casino to explore whether anything can be done to support you in this situation.

We would also like to invite SpinJo Casino to join the conversation.



Dear SpinJo Casino,

I understand that the bonus rules clearly state a maximum bet limit when utilising a bonus, which is a common practice in the industry.

Upon examining the player's game log, I found that there was indeed one isolated instance where a bet exceeded this maximum limit; however, it is important to note that this particular bet, although a winning one, resulted in winnings of just €0.25, which could hardly provide the player with any unfair advantage. Rather, it suggests being an inadvertent error. Throughout both the previous and following gameplay, the vast majority of bets remained consistently well below the maximum allowable limit; therefore, it seems not fair to confiscate all the player's winnings only based on this isolated, most likely unintentional incident.

With this in mind, I kindly ask you to reconsider your initial decision and, if feasible, offer a resolution suitable for both parties.

Should there be any other factors influencing this matter that may not be suitable for public disclosure, please feel free to share them with me directly at michal.k@casino.guru

Dear Casino Guru,


We appreciate your assessment of the situation and have taken it into consideration. We acknowledge that the player breached the maximum bet rule, which is clearly stated in the bonus terms. Nevertheless, we have worked directly with the player to reach a mutually agreed goodwill resolution and that this outcome is final.


We believe this resolves the matter fairly and in line with our terms.


Kind regards,

The Spinjo Team

Hello Michal,


Spinjo contacted me with an offer of 1000 euros, which I find very unfair and cheeky since the usual sum was 4500.

Overwhelmed by the situation, I made a counteroffer of €2000, which I now regret. I think €3000 would be a fair price out of the €4500, as I only exceeded the initial stake by €1 and didn't have any unfair advantage!


Receiving 1500 euros for a small mistake seems very fair to Spinjo, in my opinion!


Thank you so much for your help!


Best regards

Dear Spinjo Team,

I appreciate your willingness to reconsider the situation and find a suitable consensus to resolve the situation.


Dear Flopsiii18,

I understand that you’re hoping for the best possible outcome, and it’s completely natural to want the situation resolved in a way that feels positive for you. At the same time, I want to share my honest perspective so that everything remains fair and balanced for everyone involved.

As I mentioned earlier, our goal at Casino Guru is to help reach fair resolutions, not to pressure casinos into paying amounts that go beyond what can reasonably be expected. It’s also important to remember that there was a breach of the casino’s rules. If we were to look at the situation strictly from a rules standpoint, the casino would technically have been justified in acting as they did.

However, after we reviewed the case and encouraged a more considerate approach, the casino team showed willingness to find a compromise that would be acceptable for both sides. You proposed an amount, and the casino agreed to pay you €2000 — which is significantly higher than your €30 deposit and, in my view, seems to be an appropriate, if not directly a fair, outcome given the circumstances.

Because the offer already reflects a balanced and reasonable resolution, asking for a higher amount at this stage does not seem appropriate and doesn’t align with what our complaint service is meant to support. You previously agreed to the offer, and we believe such agreements should be respected.

Of course, it remains your choice whether to accept it, but since the casino team has made what we consider to be a fair and meaningful offer, we cannot treat this case as unresolved; instead, I will be forced to close it as rejected.

Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

Dear Flopsiii18,

While it appears that the issue has been clarified, and you have received the agreed-upon funds, due to the lack of response from you to our messages, inquiries, and reminders, we are unable to keep this case open without any progress. Although the situation seems to be resolved, without your confirmation, we must close this complaint as rejected.

Should you encounter any issues with this or any other casino in the future, please feel free to reach out to us, and we will try our best to help.



Best regards,

Michal
