Case summary

8 months ago

The player from Germany had an issue with a casino where, after fulfilling bonus conditions and winning €1200, the casino had deducted €1050, stating only €150 was payable from the bonus. The player had disagreed as the winnings were after the bonus conditions had been fulfilled, and the casino hadn't responded to his emails for days. The Complaints Team had contacted the casino for clarification. The casino had responded stating that the player's winnings were manually deducted due to the bonus being a non-standard deposit bonus, which could not be automatically deducted. Despite the player's dissatisfaction, the Complaints Team had concluded that the casino had acted according to their established rules, thus rejecting the complaint.

I was playing at Iwild with a bonus.....the moment when the bonus conditions were fulfilled, I was at about €500-700 (at that moment the balance should have been reduced if at all)...so after the bonus conditions were met, I won another €1200, thus bringing my total to €1900.


I requested a payout, of course, I had to send some documents multiple times via email.... and just before I finally get the verification confirmation, I receive an email stating that from the €1200, a total of €1050 will be deducted, as the maximum payable amount from the bonus would be €150......the bonus conditions have already been met and the €1200 was won afterwards.


If the bonus conditions were fulfilled while €700 was in the account....how can they deduct more money from me afterwards (that I won with supposedly "withdrawable" money) than I won in the bonus....


The casino could then deduct money from me months later after a turnover of €50000 outside of the bonus conditions, as has happened in this case.


According to my lawyer, this is a scam, as I was no longer operating within any bonus conditions.




The support team has not responded to my emails for days.

Hello serowieckitim,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with iWild Casino DE. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

Could you please advise if your account is already verified and if yes, since when exactly? Was this the first bonus you claimed in the casino? Did the balance change after finishing the wagering requirement? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

Good day,

First of all, thank you for the quick answer :)


My account was verified immediately after the money was withdrawn (see screenshots).


No, it was not the first bonus I used in this casino.


No, the account balance did not change after the wagering requirements were completed. (approx. 500-700), I won another €1200-1400 AFTER the wagering requirements were completed.


The last time I spoke to Live Support was on January 4th, who told me to send an email to " kyc@iwildcasino.com " write.....I did this on January 4th and have not received an answer to date....


Kind regards:

Tim 🙂

Hello serowieckitim,

We believe that once the wagering is complete the winnings should be capped instantly and the bonus conditions should no longer be valid. I will now forward your complaint to my colleague Michal (michal.k@casino.guru) who will be assisting you from now on.

Wish you best luck resolving it.

Regards,

Hello serowieckitim,

I'm Michal, and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed this case, and as my colleague Nick mentioned, we believe that once the wagering is complete, the winnings should be capped instantly, and the bonus conditions should no longer be valid for further gameplay. I will contact the casino to shed more light on this matter.

We would like to invite iWild Casino DE to join the conversation.


Dear iWild Casino DE,

Can you please provide more information on why the player's winnings were not capped once the bonus wagering requirement was fulfilled? If this information or any other related information can't be shared publicly, please forward it to me at michal.k@casino.guru

Dear Casino Guru and herowieckitim


The player successfully claimed the bonus and fulfilled the wagering requirements.

No automatic deduction occurred, so a manual deduction was carried out, surpassing five times the bonus amount.

Transaction history is available upon request.


Respectfully,

iWild Casino Representative

Dear iWild Casino Team,

Thank you for the provided information and evidence.


Dear serowieckitim,

Upon reviewing your game log, I can verify that the deduction of the bonus winnings after the bonus was wagered aligns with the rules outlined in the casino bonus terms and conditions.:

1.4. All winnings received while wagering Bonus are limited to a maximum cashout amount of 5 times bonus granted. Any exceeded balance will be voided prior to money withdrawal.

While I acknowledge that automated deductions are expected, no system is entirely flawless, necessitating a manual deduction in this instance. I recognize that, from a user experience standpoint, this situation was less than ideal. However, it's important to note that the casino team acted in accordance with their established rules and your winnings from the bonus gameplay have been adjusted correctly.

Hopefully, the situation has been sufficiently clarified. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with or if we can consider this complaint resolved.

Well, I would certainly have won if the money had been deducted beforehand, so I think it's a mistake on the part of the casino...they could have at least accommodated me...as befits large companies. ..I now have to be liable (pay) for their mistakes, something like that isn't actually that common

Dear serowieckitim,

I understand that the user experience with the situation is far from ideal, but your assumption is just hypothetical. Whether or not you would have won, even if the money had been deducted beforehand, remains uncertain. I am currently awaiting additional information from the casino team, and I hope we can work together to find a solution to address the inconvenience you have encountered.

Dear Guru and serowieckitim,


The automatic deduction of funds was not carried out, due to the fact that this is a non-standard deposit bonus, and this is a bonus from a daily map, unfortunately, it is currently impossible to set it up automatically, but our team is already working on this.

This has happened 2 more times now...it seems like the casino uses this excuse every time you win more than ~€150...

Dear serowieckitim,

I understand the whole situation was far from ideal from a user experience perspective, but it's essential to note that the casino team followed their rules in handling this matter.

As explained above, the automatic deduction of funds did not occur because the bonus you used was a non-standard deposit bonus. This bonus is from a daily map, and unfortunately, setting it up automatically is currently not feasible. Once the casino team checked the gameplay, the manual deduction was carried out. This is an industry-standard procedure.

Although I comprehend your determination to explore all avenues to support your argument, sadly, I'm afraid I'm not able to help much further. 

I think the situation has been adequately clarified, and I see no need to prolong the discussion on this matter. Please let me know if I can assist you with anything else, but as the casino team acted in accordance with their established rules and your winnings from the bonus gameplay have been adjusted correctly, I'm afraid I will be forced to reject this complaint.
