Hey All,
Hopefully we can chime in and give a different perspective to the situation. This user was able to get the first match deposit bonus of $250 which is great. Our bonus structure is that once you unlock a bonus once, the bonus disappears. So each bonus is redeemable one time, this goes for match deposits, free spins, and so on.
Not only do we have it specifically listed in our Term of Use that is regulating under our license and our European company that only one deposit bonus can be used per user but we also told him this when he was not even close to completing the wager requirement.
The reason that he was able to unlock this bonus was because we gave it to another user that had an issue with the bonus and in the short time that we had it on the page he was able to unlock it.
This user deposited $498 into our casino and he withdrew around $1500 which we encourage and we see often because of our high RTP.
We are an extremely honest casino and regulated as well so we follow guidelines so we had a long email strand with him when he was not close to completing the wager telling him that this bonus will not count but he kept on playing. We told him that if he lost money while attempting to complete the wager we would compensate him because of the unfortunate situation but he won money while completing the wager so there was no compensation needed.
It is unfair to the other members of our community that only have the ability to unlock 1 deposit bonus for him to be able to do unlock two, and when we told him this the reply was "I do not intend to cancel the bonus".
Again, if he lost money completing the wager we told him that we would compensate him but he won money. He withdrew his money instantly and there were no problems, the only issue here was unlocking the "Welcome" match deposit bonus twice, which is meant to welcome people the first time.
Looking deeper in his account it seems like he has filed many complaints and it is hard as a business that caters to thousands to come to the best solution every time but our solution, we feel, was beyond fair.
We think we should take a step back and understand what the situation is? He wants to have the bonus that he should not have been able to unlock in the first place because he already completed it and earned the $250, and when we told him that he is not able to unlock this bonus he continues to unlock it.
We could have removed it from his account the moment he unlocked it but we told him to do so because we do not like touching people's accounts because we believe that they should be the ones in control.
We hope this helps clear up the situation, We have proof of transaction history, bonuses, emails, whatever you need we are sure we can come to a conclusion.
This argument is not about the money it is about the fairness in our community and this breaches it. If we wanted our members to have 2 match deposit bonuses we would display it on the promotions page.
We look forward to hearing from you all further.
Best Regards,
Del Oro Casino and Sportsbook Team
