I deposited 150 euros at stake7 for a 50 percent bonus (reload thursday bonus).
after implementation i was able to apply for a payment of 1476.40 euros.
the casino canceled the payout and returned the 150 euro deposit to my player account.
I am accused of playing a restricted game while playing the bonus which unfortunately is not true.
Specifically, it means I should have played exta chilli.
i received so-called cash free spins at extra chilli and i played these free spins when my balance was 0.00 euro so no bonus was active.
this can also be seen on the screenshot under balance before it says 0.00 euro
I have never played a restricted game with my active deposit bonus.
Only when I had implemented the bonus and paid out and the balance was 0.00 euros did I play these cash free spins.
With the cash free spins I was able to win a little over 10 euros, which I then gambled away and the credit was back to 0.00 euros
I wrote back to the casino but I haven't received a reply for 3 days
i am fully verified and it is not my first withdrawal at this casino

Dear bernd30,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. We think that restricted games for bonus play should be blocked, and this rule enforced at the software level, i.e., that the casino's software or website shouldn't let players place bets on the games that are not allowed to be played while completing the bonus wagering.
Could you please advise if it was your first redeemed bonus in this casino? Is there any relevant communication that you could forward to petronela.k@casino.guru before we'll contact the casino?
I hope we will be able to help you to resolve your problem as soon as possible. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Petronela

Hi bernd30,
I tried to get in touch with the casino repeatedly but without success. I’m afraid, there is not much that can be done without cooperation from its side. I will mark the complaint "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in rating caused by unresolved complaints could 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 to contact the EADR Ltd, an MGA approved Alternative Dispute Resolution service provider, by completing their online form available at this website https://eadr.org/eadr-form/ and if necessary also the Malta Gaming Authority itself after that (https://www.mga.org.mt/support/online-gaming-support/). It's a good licensing authority and has better options and tools to help players. Please let me know if you need help with filling out the form or how the EADR and the MGA responded if you can manage to do this on your own (peter.m@casino.guru). I wish I could be of more help.
Best regards,
Peter
