Case summary

2 days ago

The player from Spain faces issues with the withdrawal of funds earned from a welcome bonus, claiming that the casino has confiscated those winnings despite the terms stating there are no wagering requirements. The player argues that he fulfilled the deposit wagering criteria and questions the bet limit the casino imposed.

They have taken away the money I won with a welcome bonus, which states that there are no wagering requirements, only that I had to wager x36 of the amount deposited, which I did. Now they are telling me that I couldn't place bets of more than 4€, which doesn't make sense because it says there are no wagering requirements in the welcome bonus.

Dear pichi938,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience. I checked the bonus T&Cs and I found this:

1.11. You may not place any bets that exceed the maximum bonus bet size when using bonus money. The maximum bonus bet size is 4 EUR (or the equivalent in any other currency) per bet/spin or equivalent unless it is stated differently in the specific terms and conditions tailored to each bonus campaign. Please note that it is your responsibility to ensure that you are aware of the maximum bonus bet size. For cases where bets are deemed to have exceeded the maximum bonus bet size, an account may be reviewed, and the bonus funds confiscated in the process.


Our position is closely explained in Fair Gambling Codex:

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 kristina.s@casino.guru.

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

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Kristina

Thank you for your reply, pichi938. I understand your point of view, but I must emphasize that Bonus Terms always apply unless stated otherwise. If you repeatedly breached the maximum allowed bet which was specified in the Bonus T&Cs while wagering this bonus, I am afraid we cannot assist further here.
