Case summary

6 months ago

The player from Greece had activated a bonus on his account, but his balance had been zeroed out mid-game. He had been informed by the casino's customer service that the bonus was valid for two days from being sent, not from activation. Despite the casino's initial response stating that there were no errors, they eventually decided to recredit the player's bonus of €100.09. We marked this complaint as resolved.

Hello, I am a casino player from Greece and I would like to discuss my problem with this casino, which may very well be a huge scam. Rather than beating around the bush, I'll begin my story from when I joined the casino and deposited money to get my bonus. Unfortunately, I lost it all. After two days, I received a message informing me that I had another bonus opportunity, inviting me to deposit money again in order to get a bonus deposit. Fast forward two days later, I decided to redeem the bonus from the message on my mobile. After depositing money and activating my bonus, I was in the middle of a game when suddenly my account balance, previously at 100€, was reduced to zero. I reached out to the customer service to discuss this issue with a representative. To my surprise, I was told that the bonus I had received was only valid for two days from the moment they sent it, not from the moment it was activated. This was utterly frustrating - who can reasonably expect to wager a bonus with x35 terms within just three hours? What is happening here is completely unacceptable and I demand that it be condemned. Adding to my frustration, the customer service I received was incredibly rude - I spoke with three different people, all of whom ended the conversation abruptly, and all of them told me that the issue was my fault according to their department, claiming nothing could be done. If this is indeed the case, then why wasn't there a warning when I activated the bonus, alerting me that my balance would be nullified after three hours? This is completely unacceptable, and I strongly advise everyone to steer clear of this casino.

This is the reply I got in an e-mail from the casino just now, while I never said I lost profit on a round I told him repeatedly that while I was playing they took the rest away from me. Below is the casino's response:
