Case summary

1 year ago

The player from Germany had his winnings capped as if they had been generated from Free Spins solely. The complaint has been closed as 'unresolved' because the casino failed to reply and cooperate in resolving the complaint. Later, after receiving an update from the player, the complaint was reopened and reclassified to 'resolved'. The player confirmed the confiscated winnings were returned, and he already successfully withdrew them.

Hello, I've been playing at this casino for a while and I've never had any problems there.

After the casino sent me a bonus by email offering, among other things, 90 free spins for my next deposit, I took advantage of the offer and made a deposit.

I didn't make any profits with Raw and Bonus Money, so I was left with the 90 free spins that were divided into 3 days of 30 free spins each.

On the 2nd day of the free spins I was lucky and was able to pay out €150 according to the terms and conditions.

After 2 days I received an email that my payout was canceled and the €150 was reduced to €50. The reason for this is that the free spins come from a non-deposit, which is definitely not the case. I have attached the banner for the deposit and a chat history as screenshots.

I hope for your help and thank you scjonmal in advance for your time and effort. 🙂


Kind regards

Thank you very much, FlashFX, for your email. Do I understand correctly that you activated a 500% match bonus + 9 FS?



Was the balance for the match bonus and the one for FS separated in your casino account?

I have checked the general bonus terms and conditions and this is what I found (here):


 1.14. When playing an active bonus, your funds will be used in the following order: Funds required to trigger the bonus, Bonus funds and Any remaining funds.


Is there any chance that you could forward your entire game history from your bonus game session?

Thank you, Marc, for your email.

I have checked the general terms and conditions once again, and this is what I found (here):


2.1. Free Spin Bonus

      ...

      2.1.4. For Free Spins offered without a deposit requirement, the maximum amount of winnings that can be withdrawn is 50 EUR (or the equivalent in any other currency)

      2.1.5. Other free spins with deposit requirements that are not in the Welcome bonus have a maximum possible payout of 150 EUR (or the equivalent in any other currency), with exception for free spins from a campaign or offer, where the rules for the specific campaign applies. 

      2.1.6. For Free Spins that is in the Game of the Week max possible payout is 150 EUR (or the equivalent in any other currency).


Since your Free Spins were part of the Deposit Bonus and it wasn't Welcome Bonus, we believe that the maximum cashout of €150 should be applied, instead of €50.


I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Branislav (branislav.b@casino.guru) who will be at your assistance. I wish you best of luck and hope to see your problem being resolved to your satisfaction in the near future.

Dear Sugar Casino Team,

Could you please provide us with an explanation of the player's situation in more detail? Why have his winnings been reduced? Can the casino look at his game history, investigate the issue, and inform us about the outcome?

Thank you in advance for providing the information.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear FlashFX,

Unfortunately, since we have not received any response from the casino regarding the issue, we cannot continue resolving this complaint and we are forced to close it as ‘unresolved’, which will influence the casino’s rating in a negative way.

The casino can reopen this complaint anytime and you will be notified about it by email.

In the meantime, I recommend that you contact the Malta Gaming Authority (https://www.mga.org.mt/player-hub/lodge-a-complaint/) and submit a complaint to them. Before submitting the complaint, make sure you provide all the necessary information: your personal data, the casino details, your login details in the casino, the issue description, and supporting attachments if it is needed. It is a good licensing authority and has better options and tools to help players. Alternatively, it is also possible to file a complaint to Alternative Dispute Resolution - EADR.

In case of any questions, feel free to contact me via email (branislav.b@casino.guru).

I wish I could be of more help. I sincerely hope you will not come across a problem like this again.

Best regards,

Branislav, Casino.Guru
