Betsson Casino - プレイヤーの賞金は没収されました。

I created an account and after identification, I received a gift of 5 chips which turned into 22 Euros. As I continued playing at the casino, I managed to make 380 Euros which I then tried to withdraw. However, my withdrawal never went through and I was told that my funds have been withheld because I allegedly violated some term and abused the bonus. I asked if it's possible for my funds to be returned to my account in order for me to make a deposit and continue playing. I find it unfair to have my money withheld in such manner, especially since I didn't knowingly violate any rule and they could have warned me that I wasn't allowed to withdraw the entire amount. Instead, they didn't notify me at all and withheld my money, which I find completely unacceptable!!!

Εκανα λογαριασμό, με την ταυτοποίηση έλαβα δώρο 5 μάρκες που μου έφεραν 22€ , συνεχίζοντας να παίζω στο καζίνο εφτασα 380€ τα οποία έκανα αίτηση για αναληψη , η αναληψη δεν έγινε ποτέ μου κράτησαν τα χρήματα επειδή μου είπαν ότι παραβίασα κάποιον όρο και έκανα κατάχρηση του μπόνους, ζήτησα αν γίνεται να μου επιστραφεί το ποσό στον λογαριασμό μου ώστε να κανω μια κατάθεση και να συνεχίζω να παίζω. Θεωρώ άδικο να μου φανε τα λεφτά ετσι καθώς δεν έκανα σκόπιμα κάτι και θα μπορούσαν να με ειδοποιήσουν οτι δεν μπορώ να κάνω ολο το ποσό ανάληψη, αντίθετα δεν με ειδοποίησαν καθόλου και μου κράτησαν και τα χρήματα, το θεωρώ απαράδεκτο!!!

No, I have not opened an account at this casino in the past. I didn't make any deposit, they gave me an identification bonus of 50 free spins which gave me €0.04. Of which 0.04€ goes as a bonus, also 5 chips from which I received 22€ but this 22€ goes as withdrawals and from them playing I reached 380€. Which were withdrawable, I made the withdrawal and they withheld the money, without any notice, I believe that all this is done for 0.04€ and it is unfair unacceptable reason that the money was withdrawable and not a bonus. I asked through a complaint to return the money to my account but the answer was no, that the issue has been closed on their part and they are not returning it to me.

Όχι δεν έχω ανοίξει στο παρελθον λογαριασμό στο συγκεκριμένο καζίνο. Δεν έκανα καμία κατάθεση, μου έδωσαν μπόνους ταυτοποίησης 50 free spins τα οποία μου έδωσαν 0.04€. Τα οποία 0.04€ πηγαίνουν σαν μπόνους, επίσης 5 μάρκες από τις οποίες έλαβα 22€ αλλά αυτά τα 22€ πάνε ως αναληψιμα και από αυτά παιζοντας έφτασα 380€. Τα οποία ήταν αναληψιμα, έκανα την ανάληψη και μου παρακρατησαν τα χρήματα, χωρις καμία ειδοποίηση, θεωρώ ότι όλο αυτό γίνεται για 0.04€ και είναι άδικο απαράδεκτο λόγο ότι τα χρήματα ήταν αναληψιμα και όχι μπόνους. Ζήτησα μέσα από καταγγελία να μου επιστρέψουν τα χρήματα στον λογαριασμό μου αλλά η απάντηση ήταν όχι ότι έχει κλείσει από μεριά τους το θέμα και δεν μου τα επιστρεφουν.

Do I understand correctly this is the bonus you received upon registration?

Was the free bet on sports also part of the bonus you received? Have you used the free bet when playing on your account, please?

Yes this is the bonus I received, I used the freebet yes. I made a bet that didn't win. I want at least a part of the amount I won to be returned to me, I consider it unfair to confiscate the entire amount. If you can do something to get back to my account a part of the amount.

Ναι αυτό είναι το μπονους που έλαβα, το freebet το χρησιμοποίησα ναι. Επαιξα ένα στοίχημα το οποίο δεν κέρδισε. Εγω θέλω έστω να μου επιστρέφει ενα μέρος του ποσού που κέρδισα, το θεωρω άδικο να μου το κατασχεσουν ολο το ποσο. Αν μπορείτε κάνετε κάτι να λάβω πίσω στον λογαριασμό μου ένα μέρος του ποσού.

Thank you very much, Theano906, for providing the necessary information. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Peter (peter.c@casino.guru) who will be at your service. I wish you the best of luck and hope the problem will be resolved to your satisfaction in the near future.  

Hello there,

Thank you Theano906 for providing us with all the information. I hope we'll be able to resolve this issue together.

I would now like to ask Betsson Casino for their help in resolving this complaint. We would like to know why was the player's money confiscated and what can we do to help resolve this issue.

Thank you!

Thank you for the effort you will make to find a solution to this, I am waiting for a proper answer and a successful move to get a part of my money back or even the whole amount, as I consider it unfair what was done.

Σας Ευχαριστώ για την προσπάθεια που θα κάνετε ώστε να υπάρξει μια λύση σε αυτό, περιμένω για μια σωστή απάντηση και μια επιτυχημένη κίνηση ώστε να λάβω ένα μέρος του ποσού μου πίσω η ακόμα και όλο το ποσό, καθώς το Θεωρώ άδικο αυτό που έγινε.

I would also like to say, that it could be since they say there is this condition that they have the amount locked as bonus money so that the full amount cannot be withdrawn, but I clarify that the entire amount was withdrawable, so yes they could to notify me and say that it is not possible to withdraw the entire amount, and not to steal it like this without any information! I believe I am right as if they were correct as a company they could have available to withdraw only the amount I can do and not the full amount and then say they withheld it. They could keep the amount that exceeds the term as they say and withdraw the remaining amount. I consider this all a scam on their part.

Επίσης θα ήθελα να πω, ότι θα μπορούσε εφόσον λένε ότι υπάρχει αυτός ο όρος να έχουν το ποσο κλειδωμένο σαν χρήματα μπόνους ώστε να μην μπορεί να γίνει η αναληψη σε όλο το ποσό, αλλά διευκρινίζω ότι το ποσό όλο ήταν αναληψιμο , οπότε ναι θα μπορούσαν να με ειδοποιήσουν και να πουν ότι δεν είναι δυνατή η αναληψη ολόκληρου του ποσού , και όχι να τα κλέψουν ετσι χωρίς καμία ενημέρωση! Θεωρω ότι έχω δίκιο καθώς αν ήταν σωστή σαν εταιρεία θα μπορούσαν να έχουν διαθέσιμο για να αναληψη μόνο το ποσο που μπορώ να κάνω και όχι ολόκληρο το ποσό και να λένε μετά ότι το παρακρατανε. Θα μπορούσαν να κρατήσουν το ποσο που υπερβαίνει τον όρο όπως λένε και να γίνει η αναληψη στο υπόλοιπο ποσο . Το θεωρώ απατη όλο αυτό απο πλευράς τους.

Dear Theano906, I was in contact with the casino but I was only recommended you contact the casino support. As the casino doesn't seem to want to cooperate with us with the resolution of this complaint, I recommend you contact eCOGRA - an alternative dispute resolution service (https://ecogra.org/alternative-dispute-resolution/#!) and submit a complaint to them. I believe you will have a better chance to resolve your issue with their help.

Best regards,

Peter

I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might 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. I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
