Unfairly confiscated $64,505 of legitimate winnings
Dear Askgamblers and G'Day - White Hat Gaming Limited ,
I won a really large sum of money with G'Day casino and they have managed to apply a term to my win in a very deceitful and dishonourable way.
I had initially received an "email offer" of 100 % up to 50$. The offer itself was not available on the account. I went on chat support, and was directly transferred to a "Priority Support Agent" - Vip. I told him regarding my offer and he said it was expired, however I had just received it a few minutes ago that day.
Once I had forwarded him the email, he said he can apply the bonus. Since I was considered a VIP player, I asked if there is anything better available ? He asked me how much are you willing to deposit, I said 200-1000$. He offered me 100% up to 500$, which I took.
After my big win, I had another chat with the same VIP agent, I told him if I was available to withdraw everything in one shot or are there limits. He once again confirmed that once I finish wagering you will be able to withdraw everything, but with a 5000 limit per week, however it can be increased by their department.
I also received a phone call from Malta, it was the Head of Vip Manager. He confirmed the amount and congratulated me, He even raised the weekly withdrawal limit to 7500$ per week.
Within 24 hours - I noticed there was never any withdrawal limit mentioned on their site or their terms and conditions. I contacted chat again, however then I was refused to talk with a vip agent, I also asked the manager to call me and they would not.
On the third day I received this email.....

Dear xxxxxxxx,
We have reviewed your account and can confirm as follows:
On 8th October 2018, you contacted our Customer Support to request a different offer to the one that had been sent to you by our casino via email. After discussions, you were provided with a new offer to accept which was a 100% deposit match bonus up to $500.
You accepted this offer in knowledge that it revoked the old offer. As a result, our general Website terms and standard Promotional terms apply to this offer.
As per Clause 8 of our standard Promo Terms (which are available on our website), any bonus that is cash or bonus received from the casino, for example via Customer Support, is classified as an instant bonus. We reserve the right to limit any winnings from an instant bonus to 10 times the value of that instant bonus.
Therefore, the bonus you were awarded was valued at $500, meaning that any winnings can be restricted to 10x that value, being $5,000.
Your winnings have therefore been capped to $5,000 and we have adjusted your casino cash balance accordingly. It is your option whether you wish to play, or withdraw, this cash value.
Yours sincerely
Accounts Team

As you can see they have managed to find a reasoning not to pay me my rightful winnings.
They implied that If I had taken the email offer, over "customer chat support", the terms and conditions would not apply to that email offer over chat. However, since I received something much better than the offer, their promotional and standard terms apply to that offer.
"As a result, our general Website terms and standard Promotional terms apply to this offer."
THAT is the most dishonest way a casino can take a legitimate players winnings.
****The absurd thing is that I have asked for the casino, via email and chat support to send me my chat history with the vip agents, they have simply ignored my request and emails for over 8 days now. So ASKGAMBELRS, I ask you to request my chat history from this casino if you can.******
I have checked my withdrawals over the White Hat Gaming Limited casinos and let me tell you that this clause of yours is an extreme sham.
I have check my previous history, and I have had withdrawals x40, x12, x17, x25, x19 times the bonus amount, and they have all been successfully processed by your casinos.
However when the times comes to pay a big win you apply " We reserve the right to limit any winnings from an instant bonus to 10 times the value of that instant bonus."
And this simply gets you off the hook ??? ..... just because your term can mean anything below.
You say an "INSTANT BONUS" either received from the casino or via support/ THIS can meaning anything at all. It can be a welcome bonus, it can be an email offer, cashback, free bonus money given by the casino.
I am very sure if my email offer was active on the account and I did not have to go through chat support to claim it, and still managed to win 69k with a 10$ bet. You would have still applied your discreditable term to my win and would have not paid me or any other player out there.
This term is extremely vague and disrespectful to your ALL YOUR PLAYERS.
Askgamblers, I ask for your help regarding this situation. I also give you the permission to get my chat history during the day of my win.
If you require any other proof, please feel free to message me.
