Case summary

4 months ago

The player from Germany had deposited €500 via VISA on Rabona and won €964.35, withdrawing €500 and leaving €400 to withdraw the next day. However, the €400 disappeared from his account, and support claimed it was withheld due to a bonus issue. He contended that his balance was zero before depositing and sought help to retrieve the €400. The issue was resolved after we contacted the casino, and the €400 was reinstated to the player's account.

Good day,

Yesterday around 19:00, I deposited €20 at Rabona and received a €20 bonus for the casino through the Cash Crab feature. At some point, I won €580, which I ultimately lost completely, and in the end, I even canceled the bonus.


At 23:08, I then deposited €50 via VISA (I intended to deposit €500, but I missed a zero), and at 23:09, I deposited an additional €450. At 23:12, I placed a bet of €500, which won me €964.35. Since their daily withdrawal limit is €500, I first withdrew €500 (which is still pending), placed a bet of €60, and left the remaining €400 in my account to withdraw on the next business day. This morning, when I woke up at 9, the €400 had disappeared from my account. I asked the chat how this could happen, and they claimed it was due to the casino bonus they had now withheld. However, this has nothing to do with the €500 I deposited via VISA, especially since my balance was €0.00 before I deposited the €500, meaning no bonus amount was pending. I was kicked out of the chat twice after explaining this. I would definitely like to receive my entitled €400 and request help. Everything is clearly visible in the transaction history.

I have been a customer there for about 2 years and have had no issues so far, and I believe this is a misunderstanding on Rabona's part, which they will hopefully recognize.

Dear Amirasani,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with Rabona Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can better understand the situation. 

  • Is your casino account accessible to you?
  • Have you received any information regarding the pending 500€ payout?
  • Could you please share your communication with the casino regarding their decision to confiscate the 400€? Send emails or chat transcripts to my email at tomas@casino.guru, or post screenshots here

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

Best regards,

Hello Thomas,


thanks for the reply.

Question 1: Yes, the casino is still accessible, there is no distinction between betting and casino money at Rabona. This means I can use the money to both bet and play casino games.


Question 2: The 500€ were transferred to my account this morning and have arrived.


Question 3: I have attached the screenshots of the chat. I have now sent them an email and am waiting for their response.

Are there any bonuses recorded in your bonus history?

Could you please a screenshot of your most recent active bonuses as they appear in your player's account?

yes, picture no. 1 shows that at 19:02 the 20€ crab bonus was received, which I unlocked at 20:57 because you have to wager it 50x file

Of this, I spent about €20 on the slot, while I then made a €565.10 bet slip because I was told that I had to wager the unlocked bonus once more. file


Since the supposedly safe betting slip did not work out well, I used the cashout function at €190.35 and made a new betting slip at 22:25 with €190.35, which then also did not work, see picture 3 file


At the time, I didn't realize that my betting slips were unnecessary, since apparently you could only withdraw a maximum of €100 from the €20 crab bonus according to their new rule in the general terms and conditions. But after this betting slip in picture 3 didn't work, my account balance was at €0 and my bonus credit was completely used up, so the €500 I had deposited was clean by 11:09 p.m. and there was no more bonus money. Either Rabona knows it but is just playing dumb, or they didn't see that I had already made betting slips with the bonus I had unlocked that turned out to be lost. I still haven't received a response to my email to Rabona in a week.
