Case summary

The player from South Africa lost R10,000 after being accused of "bonus manipulation" for using the "buy bonus" feature during the wagering process after winning from free spins. She claimed that this rule was not stated in the casino's terms and conditions and had escalated the issue with no resolution. The complaint was ultimately rejected due to her failure to respond to the inquiries made by the Complaints Team, which prevented further investigation.

After winning from free spins and during the wagering process, I made use of the "buy bonus" feature in one of the games. After completing the wagering process, all the funds were taken out of my account and I was accused of "bonus manipulation".


I genuinely did not know that one cannot make use of the "buy bonus" option during the wagering process and NOWHERE in their terms and conditions do they state this.


I lost R10 000 and escalated this as far up as possible. I was just told that they cannot credit my account.


So basically, when it comes to them having to pay out winnings from free spins after going through the wagering process, they can make up any rule and steal the funds from your account.
