$641.98 was deducted from my account, due to falsified bonus terms regarding bonus level 4 fs.. Inwhich they claim that I exceeded the max win from the freespins which is $50, but I only won $28.. This bonus also has no max cashout/turn over when completing the wagering requirements, inwhich I did.. They then proceeded to make up other excuses and are rejecting my request for a refund.. $641.98 was won on progressive freespins on the slot mummyland treasures.. Not on the bonus level 4 fs slot which was Japanese coin.. Attached I have proof of previous conversations and account information regarding the bonus and terms.. Everytime I ask them to provide any proof of exceeding the bonus terms, considering I completed the wager requirements without fault, but they would not provide deduction time and slot, nor bet exceeding max win amount

Dear Traps323,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Let me clarify, did you finish wagering for a free bonus and then continue playing?
  • Has your balance ever been moved from a bonus balance to real money?
  • Would you mind requesting and sending us your complete game history? My email address is petronela.k@casino.guru.

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

Best regards,

Petronela

Yes, I completed wager and continued to play, with real funds, I reached a balance of $2000, when the deduction of $641.98 aud, was made, a few hours later, on mummyland treasures.. The level 4 bonus fs, that I wagered, were allocated for Japanese coin, inwhich I won $28 which does not exceed the assa$50 max fs win.. This bonus also has no max cashout/conversion attached

Hello, Traps323,

I am sorry to hear about your trouble, and I am sorry for the delay.

From now on, I will assist you with your complaint. The casino did not fail to respond. I am the one who should invite the casino representative to the thread if I consider it necessary. This has not been done yet.

I reviewed the game logs you sent to my colleague Petronela. Although it is not completely user-friendly, I edited it to a better readable form, and I will send it to your email after I finish writing this post. Before I invite the casino to the thread (if it is needed at all), I have a few questions for you.

Do I understand correctly that the disputed winnings were won from FS attached to the fourth welcome deposit bonus? If so, how did you please find out that there is no maximum cashout for the FS?

This is what I found on the casino website regarding the deposit and FS in question (the same is stated in their general bonus Ts&Cs):

filefile

And this is how I see it in your game history - although you received FS in the amount of 28.88 NZD (those were not winnings of 28.88 NZD from FS, but they were your FS in the amount of 28.88 NZD which should have been played), you played with them, but the disputed/deducted winnings were accumulated with those FS, not after you played them but during playing with them. However, these FS were subject to the terms in the screenshot above. They say there is no max cashout for the bonus money, but we are talking about FS attached to the bonus which have a 50 NZD maximum win cap. It means that you could not win more than 50 NZD from those FS. If you look at the edited game logs that will be in your inbox in a while, you can see that I highlighted a few important rows there (starting with row 5537 when FS were activated) and the important values are highlighted in orange colour there. You can clearly see that your balance was 50 NZD higher than it was before FS were played - the maximum win amount from FS was left in your balance, in accordance with the casino's Bonus Terms and Conditions/bonus specific Terms and Conditions.

Is this explanation and the edited game logs enough for you to understand the situation, or is there anything else I could help you with?

Can you please provide me with a link or a screenshot of the rules which state that there is no maximum win limit for FS used? Unfortunately, I am afraid if there was no such a rule on the casino website, I cannot see any issue here at all, and we would not need to invite the casino to the thread.

First of all, these fs were not the fourth deposit bonus spins.. These were part of the loyalty program level 4 bonus.. Inwhich I received 50fs.. And I played these 50fs on Japanese, and won $28.88 from them.. Inwhich I proceeded to wager on other slots with winnings I had already accumulated before playing the fs

Alright, Traps323, thank you for the additional information. It looked like those FS were a part of the 4th deposit bonus since, as shown in my screenshot above, it is activated by a code "LVL4". In addition, I am sorry for the misleading information - if you opened the edited version of your game logs, you could see that no rows/cells were highlighted, as I mentioned. It was not saved correctly due to the file format (.csv)...

However, your screenshot likely does not relate to the loyalty FS either. As I can see, there is information about wagering 30x in your screenshot and the maximum amount you can win of 100 NZD. But in the game logs and another of your screenshots, it seems the wagering was 10x and the max win was 50 NZD. In addition, it still makes sense that you received 28.88 winnings from level 4 loyalty, earned the disputed winnings during the wagering of those funds, and that they were simply deducted from your balance upon meeting the wagering requirements of 10x the winnings from those FS.

In your game logs, you can clearly see that your balance was increased by 28.88, then there was the wagering of those winnings (all rows with "Level 4 FS" value in column "Bonus Issue"), and at the end of wagering, everything over maximum cashout of 50 NZD was deducted from your balance. There was 1299.24 in your balance before 28.88 was credited to your balance and 1349.24 after the wagering requirements were met.

In addition, I really do not know how you figured out that you wagered any of the winnings from FS with the funds you accumulated before FS were used. It does not work like that at all. What does your previously accumulated balance have to do with FS? For better understanding, I recommend you rather imagine that there was no balance at the time the FS were activated. Then you simply (as under normal circumstances) played a no-deposit bonus with the maximum win limit of 50 NZD, which was applied upon meeting the wagering requirements.

I am not sure if I overlooked something, but honestly, I cannot see any issue here. So, let's ask the casino for the details and explanation.


Dear LevelUp Casino team,

Could you please provide us with an explanation of the player's situation in more detail and put everything in perspective?

It would be also great if you could provide us with the exact rules for the Level 4 FS and a way how to find them because I think no correct rules applied for those FS have been shared in this thread yet.

Thank you in advance for providing the information.

So you are telling me that, if I exceeded max win of $50, then I would receive $50 and not $28.88, right? And you also believe that, this bonus level 4 fs has a max win of $50, with wager requirements that are 10x the winnings , clearly exceeding $50 no matter the fs winnings amount? That doesnt make sense

Let me tell you what makes sense, is this.. Level 4 loyalty program 50fs.. Max fs win $50.. My fs winnings, $28.88.. Clearly not exceeding max win.. Wager requirements, 10x bonus amount, which amounts to $288.. With no max cashout attached.. Which means anything won, with the fs winnings, are withdrawable once wager is met

Requirements of 10x the bonus fs winnings.. Which clearly exceeds $50.. Therefore the no max cashout attached, is applied during wagering of winnings..And max win of $50 is only applied to amount won during the fs.. MAX WIN DOES NOT MEAN MAX WINNINGS.. I REPEAT, DOES NOT

I wrote what I saw in your game logs, and that it does not correspond with the screenshots of the rules you provided. After you received 28.88, you started the wagering, and the wagering requirements were met. At that point, your balance was 50 NZD higher than before receiving 28.88 (everything over 50 NZD was deducted from the winnings). So, some limit of 50 NZD was applied upon meeting the wagering requirements. Maybe it could have been a mistake/system error... Therefore, I did not close the case and invited the casino to the thread so it could explain the situation and provide the details and/or applied rules.

However, it does not matter what you think, but what rules were applied, how it is explained there, and how the casino apply them. Different casinos consider max win or max cashout amounts differently, so we definitely need the explanation and details from the casino.

Let's wait for the casino's response.

Those gaming logs have obviously been manipulated and tempered with by the casino, as you can clearly see, the timestamps do not add up, as shown at the top, level 4 bonus is active for mummylands but not cash pig? But I played cash pig before mummylands

So you played FS in Cash Pig ("Level Up Cash Pig" in your screenshot) but wagered the winnings from FS on Mummyland Treasures. What is unclear?

I do not think anything was manipulated.

Where does it say fs on cash pig? Fs were on Japanese coin.. Seems like you're more enabling, rather than genuinely helping me..

You obviously sound like another brainless chump try your best to find any flaw and excuse to defy the facts.. Even when the proof is right there.. You're either clueless to the fact, or you're just enabling by turning a blind eye to their misdemeanors.. So you can close this case, because its obviously pointless, when you're trying to deny facts and make up falsified information.. You need to quit, because you're retarded asf mate

Dear Traps323,

Thank you for your meaningful opinion and information. However, I do not understand what are you talking about and hope you are kidding.

"Where does it say fs on cash pig?" - I commented on YOUR previous post. Please read your own posts again if you do not remember what you wrote. I am really sorry that I do not have time to go through all your meaningful posts full of discrepancies, misleading and/or made-up information (such as the casino manipulated the data - yes, sure, due to a few hundred, which otherwise would ruin the whole casino if they left them on your balance...).

Instead of ignoring you, I tried to understand and comment on your posts, but it is very hard. Basically, I only commented on the data (game logs) provided or commented on your posts. I informed you several times that we had to wait for the casino's response. You, instead of waiting, keep replying and giving more and more irrelevant and misleading information. I am really not sure who fits the description from your last post in this case.

"proof is right there" - evidence (game logs) is contradictory to your claims and screenshots. Without the casino's response, we cannot find out what happened, and if it was a mistake/system error...

Despite your last post, I decided to give it a chance anyway and wait for the casino's response. Your post looks a bit impulsive, and we should calm down. It would be a pity to close it without even looking at the casino's response.


However, of course, we do not force anyone to use our services (for free) to resolve their issues. If you are not interested in our services anymore, feel free to inform me about it. I can close the case and give space to another player/complaint. There are many. Just confirm it, and I will process it.

On the other side, once you calm down, please, just wait for the casino's response. But I would highly appreciate it if you could stop using similar language as was used in your last post. Otherwise, the complaint will be closed/rejected for a different reason. You can take it as the first but also the last warning.

If we can proceed in resolving the complaint - thank you for your patience and understanding. Let's wait for the casino's response.

First off, I would like to apologize for my inappropriate comments made, It is frustrating..


But if you look closely, this information regarding bet history, says that cash pig has NO level 4 fs attached, and that the level 4 loyalty quest fs were activated on mummyland treasures, which is completely false..


The level 4 fs were allocated for Japanese coin..


This also shows that my balance at the time of level 4 fs on mummylands was $1328, which is also false, as I took a screenshot after the level 4 fs winnings of $28 on Japanese coin, which also shows the time top right corner and balance bottom right corner

I dont mean to mislead you, considering most of the information provided are screenshots, regarding my levelup casino account, and the information as shown on their system..


And I doubt that their system information would be misleading right?


So we will wait for a response, as I would expect them to provide the same account information that I have..

Dear Traps323 and Casino Guru Team,

Thank you for reaching out to us!

We would like to provide more information about your recent inquiries regarding your bonus winnings from Level 4.


To begin, we would like to bring more clarity regarding the terms of this bonus. Recently, our Loyalty Program underwent updates, specifically on April 10th. Now, this program has different bonuses and conditions regarding redemption and maximum winnings. Unfortunately, you won’t find the relevant rule on the website at this time.

However, we have confirmation regarding the old terms for this bonus, which you can review: https://prnt.sc/aKgP3Gm009c1


It is also important to note that you contacted customer support regarding your inquiry before our program was updated, and our agents provided you with accurate information, stating that the maximum win from the bonus for Level 4 would be 50 NZD. You can check this in your chat history or we can provide the relevant evidence that can be checked through the link: https://prnt.sc/I61xrs-D9u6J


Besides, we want to mention that you won 28 NZD from playing free spins in the game Japanese Coin: Hold The Spin. You can check this in your profile under the bonus history section: https://levelupcasino.com/promotions

Afterwards, it seems that you used your winnings to wager in the game Mummyland Treasures and won a total of 691.29 NZD. However, please keep in mind that according to our terms and conditions, the maximum win from this bonus is 50 NZD. As a result, the system automatically deducted the excess amount, which was 641.98 NZD.

At the time, your balance was 1299.24 NZD. With the bonus winnings of 28.88 NZD, your total balance reached 1328.12 NZD. Once you completed the bonus wagering requirements, your balance was 1991.22 NZD. After the deduction of 641.98 NZD, your balance settled at 1349.24 NZD.


We have thoroughly reviewed the deduction process and it appears to be accurate. However, if you need further clarification, please refer to the Bet History statement we provided earlier.

We appreciate your understanding and patience.

Kind regards,

LevelUp Casino Team

Thank you, LevelUp Casino team, for the clarification. I have only a few last questions.

In your screenshot of the rules that are not available on the casino website anymore, I can see the next rule "14. No max cashout is attached."

Where were those rules available before, and in which section? Is it possible to find the complete rules that applied before April 10? What was that no max cashout related to, please?

What happens if a player wins more than $50 from such FS? Are the winnings capped at the point when the FS are spent, or is it simply moved to the player's balance (and it could be more than $50), where they have to be wagered, and only then it is capped by the max win amount (upon meeting the wagering requirements)?

The no max cashout rule applied to the old loyalty program, inwhich I reached level 4, obtained the level 4 fs and am currently disputing..

The rules were changed as soon as the new loyalty program commenced, from the date of April 10th 2024 UTC


My screenshots here show the email I received April 11th 2024 NZT, April 10th 2024 UTC.. Regarding the new loyalty program and

changes

Yes, but it looks like the "no max cashout", if it is like it is for other bonuses at the casino, is valid only for no-deposit cash, not FS. Basically, I thought that since the beginning, and it makes sense like that.

Let's wait for the casino's response and clarification.

Please note, that it says no max cashout directly after max fs win.



Also note, that the no max cashout applies to both, the cash bonuses and the fs bonuses


Cash bonus- Bonus funds with wager requirements


Fs bonus winnings- Bonus funds with wager requirements


Max fs win- Is the capped amount when playing the freespins e.g 50fs with a max win of $50
