I made a withdrawal of money 10.600,-CZK (some 400, -EUR). My balance at the time was about some 180.000, -CZK (some 7.000,-EUR). Withdrawal of money was ok and it was credited to my bank account.

I broke term and conditions? I do not know. I do not speak English. I play in the casino, where they speak my language. Everything in this casino is in my language – term and conditions is in english. Why? Screen5
I think the confiscation of all winning is incorrect. It is wrong to say - everything is in order, the win will be paid. Pay twice. And then confiscate all!

My opinion player.

Caribic casino is big disappointment for my.

The first impression is fantastic. Pleasant environment in native language, online chat in native language, Win and casino will pay into your bank account. Everything is perfect. You can lose money like everywhere, never mind, you feel that everything is fair.

But beware. More win and and get nothing. And the magic is gone. Communication is strict and unpleasant. Everything goes very quickly. They send email link - term and conditions (it is not in their native language), confiscation ALL win and close an account. That is all. Finish. It is annoying. I want explanation, nothing, only breach term and conditions. Until the reaction is here (thanks team ASKGAMBLERS) I got at least some details. And now begins the real play – word.

I do not want to write this is fair and this is not fair. One thing I safely - there is no chance to win. They always find a reason. As I said - big disappointment. It will remain a feeling of injustice. That is all. Not anger, regret, nothing. Only big disappointment.

I am interested in of opinion ASKGAMBLERS – is confiscation my win and close my account is fair? Was there any chance of reversal?

Thanks you very mutch

Refusing to payout, accusing me for fraud without any proofs
I made a deposit on the 24/10/2017 of £100, and solely played this on Immortal Romance slot. I then requested a withdrawal, and was asked to provide documents to verify my account, which I sent through on the 01/11/2017. | hadn't heard anything back, so chased up a week later, to be told that I was part of a fraud investigation because my account had been found to have played Beautiful Bones Slot most recently. They have today sent me an email refusing to process my withdrawal, and telling me my account is closed, and this matter is considered final. I have not most recently played Beautiful bones, & I did not play with any bonus funds on my last deposit, and I have not got multiple accounts. I have copied the email below. Hi John , Thank you for your understanding while a massive investigation consisting of multiple companies and departments was conducted. As we have written before, Caribic Casino security, in conjunction with Every Matrix security, has discovered a massive attempt to defraud Caribic Casino and other casinos using multiple gaming accounts accepting bonus offers and using such bonus offers in an a coordinated scheme using the slot game Beautiful Bones. This game has been discontinued while multiple agencies and security departments continues to conduct a formal review of all gaming, players and playing patterns. As your account has been found to have played Beautiful Bones most recently, your account was apart of this investigation. Conclusion of your account in this investigation: As you clearly knew already, your gaming account has been confirmed to be one of many that have been directly linked in a group. Multiple departments and persons within these departments, have been able to independently discover irrefutable evidence of direct contact between your account and others within the group. To be clear, this investigation was not solely conducted by Caribic Casino Management. Every Matrix and Every Matrix financial processors (which funds were processed through) have also been apart of this investigation. Therefore, as we have been able to confirm your account to be acting within a designed and coordinated group to claim multiple bonuses using multiple accounts in a direct scheme to intentionally defraud Caribic Casino, this breaks our clearly written terms in several ways: https://www.caribiccasino.com/Promotions/TermsConditions/casino/fdb201604 12. All bonuses are issued only once per account, computer, IP address, person, family, household, email address, and or where computers in a living/workplace/school arrangements are shared. 13. Management reserves all rights to discontinue any offer at any time and to determine bonus abuse, multiple bonus claims "by reasonable suspected association", deposit fraud or schemes to defraud the casino. Caribic Casino management decision is final. Therefore, as a result of opening multiple gaming accounts and claiming bonuses (with the clear intent to defraud the casino using such MULITPLE bonuses), all funds requested to be withdrawn have been denied and your account is closed. This matter is considered closed and final. Sincerely, Caribic Casino

Unfair confiscation of £4500 of legitimate winnings
On the 19th of September I won around £6000 at Caribic Casino playing slots with their welcome bonus. At that time I immediately thought I better cover my bases here and give their bonus terms a second read. What I read was completely ambiguous. Please see casino terms attached below. I've highlighted the relevant sections. I was going to ask Caribic Casino which limitation applied to welcome bonuses. However, after giving it some thought I decided that since I had just won a lot of money there might be a bias in their answer. I imagined that they might enforce whichever clause benefited them and disregard any of their other written rules. Maybe this seems pessimistic, but despite enjoying gambling at online casinos I certainly don’t trust them. So I asked a friend who was not a member to ask Caribic Casinos’s support staff which clause applied to the welcome bonus. That way I would get their objective interpretation of their own confusing rules. I have attached the reply I received below. So after playing a bit more to make sure I had completed all their wagering requirement, my balance ended at £6153. At that point I decided to cashout. I then realised that £4500 had disappeared from my balance. I immediately contacted support and was informed that there was a 1500 limit for withdrawals with the welcome bonus. Not only is this a complete contradiction of what they told another gambler when they had nothing at stake. It is also proof of an extremely dishonest, predatory and cynical interpretation of their own terms and conditions: Their agenda is the only thing that dictates what rules they enforce. They will offer a 10,000 prize which apparently doesn't exist in an attempt to lure in the new player who has never deposited at their casino. This is because their agenda at that time is to encourage new deposits. However, once you’ve actually won some money, their agenda changes to paying their customer as little as possible. So they interpret another set of rules entirely. A casino’s terms and conditions should not be subject to interpretation depending on what mood the casino is in. They should be unambiguous, indisputable and clear. If at the time the terms had only stated that there was a 1500 cap on winnings I would have been very disappointed but I would not be here complaining. But when you tell my friend he’s entitled to a 10,000 win with the welcome bonus just because he hasn’t actually won anything yet and in the same day you tell another customer who has just won something completely different, that is clearly extremely unethical. So I say to the casino, please do the right thing here and pay me my winnings so that we can put this behind us.

Took 1160€ from me against their own bonus terms
Caribic casino took 1160€ from my account against their own bonus terms. This is how it happened: I received 6.4.2016 a promotion e-mail from Caribic casino about a new monthly bonus. It promised 30€ bonus for a deposit of 20€. I went to their promotion page to look for the bonus terms. That is what I always do before I deposit with new bonuses. I checked 3 things that are the most important to me: wagering requirement, list of excluded games and the maximum withdrawal amount. The wagering requirement was decent and there was no maximum withdrawal limit specific for that bonus, so I decided to make a deposit. I did not receive the bonus automatically so I went to their live chat and soon the bonus was added manually to my account. I played some time and a variety of games with the bonus, and I managed to get my balance up to 1500€. Then I went to check the remaining wagering requirement, which showed that I had about 100€ remaining to wager. I opened a game and started to wager. To my surprise, when I had completed the wagering my balance suddenly dropped from 1480€ to 320€. The live chat was not there at the moment so I wrote to the support and told them about my lost money. A couple hours later I got an answer to my e-mail. It was short only including this text line: “6. Maximum win cap applies to associated winnings and is set to €300.” There was also a screenshot from the promotion page where the bonus terms were. Immediately I noticed that there was something strange in that screenshot. I read the terms carefully before I deposited and I was sure there was not that paragraph 6. I went to the site to see those bonus terms again (English language terms). The terms were as I remembered. There was no paragraph 6, or at least the one that the support sent. This was the paragraph 6 in their site: “6. The bonus and qualifying deposit amount must be wagered 35 times before any part of the deposit, bonus funds or associated winnings can be withdrawn or transferred.” There was no mention about any bonus cap either. I also check the CZ language version and there was no mention about the bonus cap in there either. I opened and refreshed the page again with both Firefox and Chrome browser. I also opened it with my friend’s computer just to be sure. All of those things proved that there was no maximum win cap rule. Caribic casino had made a mistake. I took two screenshots from the English promotion page (with Firefox and chrome) and sent them to Caribic casino support team. I told them that the rules they gave me didn’t exist on their site, and I asked them to return my money. It took them over one full day to answer me back. This was their answer: “Do you see old T&C on Your side? This can really be that your page is not properly refreshed.” When I read that answer I sort of knew that they had changed the rules during that period it took them to answer me back. I went to check their page anyway, and “surprise, surprise” the rules were changed. This line about the bonus cap was added there. So basically instead of acknowledging their error and returning my money they ended up blaming me for the whole thing.
