The player from Germany had successfully completed the wagering of a 50% bonus but found her balance had dropped unexpectedly from €4150 to €1450 due to a claimed maximum payout limit of €1000, which was not stated in the bonus conditions. Despite the casino admitting to a mistake in a live chat, she had not received her funds. The Complaints Team had reached out to the casino for clarification on the maximum win limit, but no response was received despite multiple follow-ups. Consequently, the complaint was marked as 'unresolved,' and the player was advised to contact the Curaçao/Antillephone Gaming Authority for further assistance.

Hello,
I claimed a 50% bonus at the casino. €455 deposit + 50% bonus.
I adhered to all bonus conditions and after successfully completing the wagering, I had a balance of €4150. Suddenly, my balance dropped to €1450.
The Lucky Circus Casino claims the bonus supposedly has a maximum payout of €1000.
However, this is not stated in the bonus conditions. There is no mention of a maximum payout anywhere. Not in the newsletter, nor on the website. The casino admitted via live chat that they made a mistake, yet I still haven't received my money. I have screenshots of everything mentioned.

Looking forward to your answer.

Hello,
In the meantime, the casino has reduced the amount to €1000, thus deducting a total of €3150 from my account.
My account has been verified since 10/2/24.
I received the bonus via email. In the email and on the website in the bonus terms and conditions there is nothing about a maximum win or €1000. That is a scam from the casino!
Yesterday. The casino admitted the mistake but kept the money.

Dear Redoner,
Based on the screenshots you provided and after reviewing the casino's terms, I was unable to find anything regarding a maximum win limit from a deposit bonus. I will now forward your complaint to my colleague Michal (michal.k@casino.guru), who will assist you moving forward.
Wishing you the best of luck in resolving the issue.
Kind regards,
Nick

Hello Redoner,
I'm Michal, and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed your case and I will contact the casino to shed more light on this matter.
We would like to invite Lucky Circus Casino to join the conversation.
Dear Lucky Circus Casino,
I kindly request clarification regarding the application of a maximum win limit to the player's winnings, as there was no mention of such a limit in the bonus terms and conditions. If this rule was introduced recently, I believe it should not be applied retroactively. I look forward to your clarification on this matter.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Redoner,
I wanted to provide you with a brief update. I have contacted the casino representative and was expecting to receive additional information; however, I have yet to obtain the details I require. I have followed up with the representative in hopes of gaining the necessary clarification. To facilitate a potential resolution, I will extend the timeline by an additional three days.

Dear Redoner,
I had anticipated receiving information from the casino representative; however, I have unfortunately not received any updates despite my repeated requests.
Regrettably, I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Curaçao/Antillephone Gaming Authority (complaints@gaminglicences.com; certria@gaminglicences.com) and submit a complaint to them. The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players. Please let me know if you need help with submitting the complaint or how they responded if you can do it on your own (michal.k@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.
Best regards,
Michal
Casino Guru
