I deposited 100 EUR and received a 200 EUR bonus. When I won so much for the first time that a payout would have paid off, I asked in the chat. Then it was said I had to wager a total of around EUR 270 (bonus money). When I had implemented everything, I applied for a payout of EUR 1000. There was still 290 EUR real money in the account. While I was waiting for the payout and had sent all the required documents, I continued to play with this money and in the meantime earned another 1,100.00 EUR. Today I received the mail that unfortunately I cannot be paid out because I allegedly played a game that would be forbidden with bonus money. My money in the player account is now 100 EUR. They simply canceled all of the money for me. This morning I still had 1,100.00 EUR, which I earned with pure real money 🙁

Hello Kristina,
Thank you for the fast answer. Unfortunately I don't have a link to the
Bonus leads. As far as I know, that was a bonus for the second or third
Deposit. What do you mean by game story? Which machine do I use
played, or on which days? I made the deposit of 100 EUR on December 22nd, 2021. Since then I've actually played every day. I will send you the list of games and communication with the casino separately by email. I was able to take the individual games from my game history directly from the Royal Spinz page under my login data.
According to the last email from Royal Spinz, I `` illegally '' played the game Magic Wheel. But it can't be that I play for days and win and a single game denies the complete win? Oh yeah, and I didn't even win that game 🙁

Thank you for your reply, Daniela. First, I would like to mention that I haven't received any emails from you yet. Please note, that by hame history I mean a report of all bets you made during wagering of this bonus. This is usually available in the player's account, or you can request it from the casino's support and they should be able to send it to you.

Hello Kristina, I sent the email to kristina.s@casino.guru last night at 9:32 p.m. Attached is a list with the games that I played between December 22nd, 2021 and September 9th, 2022, and also all of the e-mail traffic with the casino. The mail didn't come back either.

Hello All,
Please be aware that we have researched the matter and would like to highlight a few details.
The withdrawal in question was made on the 31st of December, 2021.
The source of the winnings includes:
Deposit reference ID 1818072 of 100 EUR
Deposit bonus reference ID 1818073 of 200 EUR
Free bonus reference ID 1825890 of 5 EUR, claimed on the 22nd of December 2021
Please be advised that Daniela’s withdrawal was voided due to breaching the maximum betting rules and as well as for playing with bonus funds on the unpermitted game.
Please see the mentioned T&C:
"9. Betting rules
9.1. Winnings and Betting Rules
9.1.2.2. Bonus Betting Rules: Placing wagers that are 30% or more then the value of the bonus (the smallest one among them) currently in play within the bonus wagering requirements are fulfilled.
…
9.3. Wagering Requirements
9.3.3 . Each bonus is restricted from being used on Table and/or other games. The player can only use bonus funds to play Slots or Scratch Games."
In this scenario, the player has made 7 bets on the non-slot game "Magic Wheel."
The aforementioned game is not permitted in the Bonus games category of the website.
Furthermore, Daniela has made 2 over-bets between 5 Euros and 7.75 Euros on the game "Santa´s Kiss" and "Super Zodiac Bingo"- this is another reason why her winnings have been voided.
Please be advised that we view this acts as a violation of the service we provide, and an attempt to deal unfairly with us. If a player attempts that, confiscation of the winnings accrued is in order.
The Casino understands your frustration, but it is imperative that all players comply with the terms and conditions that a player agrees to upon opening an account.
We'd like to underline that the non-lost deposit has been returned to the player's account.
Regards,
RoyalSpinz Casino

I was expecting something like that. It is obvious that this casino aims at making 'mistakes'. Since I only ever play slot machines (slot games), I have no idea how I came up with this Magic Wheel. Actually, I should have clicked on the section with live casino, bets or something similar. How could the game be recognized as not being playable during bonus rounds? And on the topic: Played higher than allowed... If you go into the games, they are mostly set high. If you don't pay attention to it right away, you can accidentally play for 5 EUR - as in my case. I played about 5,000 game spins or more and played exactly two spins with higher totals. On average, I played almost continuously with EUR 0.50. If I was brave, for a short time for one euro. It's obvious that this was not intentional or an attempt to play unfair - ridiculous....
They graciously let me have my 100 EUR (deposit money). Tried to cash them out, but even that doesn't work.

Dear RoyalSpinz Casino team.
Thank you very much for your cooperation.
In this scenario, the player has made 7 bets on the non-slot game "Magic Wheel."
The aforementioned game is not permitted in the Bonus games category of the website.
Please, could you also specify if the player receives any kind of warning when he launches a restricted game?
Furthermore, Daniela has made 2 over-bets between 5 Euros and 7.75 Euros on the game "Santa´s Kiss" and "Super Zodiac Bingo"- this is another reason why her winnings have been voided.
May I kindly ask you why these over-bets are missing in the game history provided? Maybe I have missed it, so if you could specify the line from the file I can try to search it manually but even according to the filter there are no such games.

Dear Daniela.
The situation is very unfortunate, it is obvious that your intentions were not to breach the bonus conditions. Only one bet from the two that breached the maximal bet limit was winning one. Although we believe the best practice would be enforcing such a condition by the system, it is not an industry-standard nowadays. And, the winnings from 7 bets which were on the restricted game did have minimal impact on the winning amount. Same as with max bet, the best practice would be enforcing it by the software. However, the casino has a designated section of Bonus games that contains the games which are only allowed to play with the bonus amount.
Be aware that we asked the casino team to reevaluate your case individually. They informed us the decision is final and that you have managed to lose the returned amount.
Concluding all the information, we have decided to reject your case. Please, let me know if you have any questions.
Best regards, Jozef
