Removed winnings 15489 from account

On Dec 4th I received a phone call of a bonus offered to me, and then i was emailed that bonus which was 150% up to $250 and a max payout of $1500. I deposited $100 and played and did the wagering requirements and came out with $700.

I tried withdrawing on 4th Dec at 8:12 to which it was rejected due to needing to upload some documents. I tried withdrawing again after uploading the relevant documents at 19:12 and was rejected once more. I then decided to play out with the money that was back into my account and lost the $700.

4th Dec 21:38 I deposited another $100 with no bonus attached just a deposit and played over a span of six days with this deposit and had won an accumulated amount of $18000 playing casino live and online slots.

I was already having issues with withdrawing and uploading documents as they were asking me for same documents I had already uploaded. This was extremely hard and annoying process. I tried withdrawing $4000 on 12th Dec as this was the max amount it was letting me withdraw to but this was declined due to again wanting more documents. I tried again on the 4th and it was rejected and all money was removed from my account except $2011.35

I then received an email which stated that the money in my account was won on a bonus deposit and was now void as the max payout was $1500 but as a goodwill gesture I will receive $2011.35. This is not true, I won this accumulated amount on my second deposit which has no bonus attached.

I have tried resolving this with the casino but they are now not responding to my emails. I have read terms and conditions and it says all bonuses are automatically cancelled reaching a certain amount and this term only applies to the balance tied to a bonus and not to funds on the players balance gained from other deposits.

They are stating that somehow my first deposit and second deposit have got mixed up and now I don't get my winnings from my second deposit. I asked to see my gameplay as you can only see the last 50 on this website to which they responded this information will take 1-2 months but are telling me they have already reviewed this but cannot show me any of this information?? This is a lot of money to miss out on and I feel as though I am being shafted and scammed and am now just being ignored.

I can upload any screenshots from this website or messages with this company if needed

Thank you please help.

Dear @Mihid,

Hi Mihid,

Thank you for your response.

As requested, we have provided the second screenshot clearly showing the relevant gameplay rounds and the point at which the bonus-related funds were returned to your balance. At that moment, your confirmed real-money balance amounted to 511.35 NZD, which is also reflected in our internal records.

Please note that the total account balance is always visible during gameplay, and once bonus funds are involved in wagering, the applicable bonus rules — including the maximum cash-out limit — continue to apply to all resulting gameplay, regardless of subsequent deposits made while bonus-derived funds remain active in the balance.

Even if gameplay had continued under different circumstances, the final withdrawable amount would still have been limited by the bonus maximum cash-out, and the payable amounts would not have materially differed from the outcome already applied.

At this stage, we have provided all relevant explanations, evidence, and account breakdowns available from our side. As such, we have nothing further to add and will await AskGamblers’ final decision on this matter.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi there

The second attachment you have uploaded is not readable i am unsure what it says. It is unclear on your website for a player to see bonus credits and real money play separate, when i withdrew twice it said fully withdrawable and not locked by bonus. How can your players be aware of this if you are not displaying this clearly on your website. It is very misleading. I am still wanting to review my gameplay, yes you have uploaded my deposits and withdraws which I already have access too but I had requested my gameplay and account balances from the 4th onwards to have a better breakdown.
I fully understand your terms and conditions, but my issue is I made a second deposit with no bonus. Even if my bonus money from my first deposit somehow got mixed in with my real play money that is not my fault. There's no way to see this on your website.

1.10. Bonuses are automatically cancelled upon active balance reaching the amount of 0.06 EUR or less (or its equivalent). This term only applies to the balance tied to a bonus, i.e. deposit + bonus, or a bonus only (in case of a no deposit bonus), and it doesn't apply to funds on the player's balance gained from other deposits or bonuses.

1.11 Deposit-related bonuses do not stack.

Thank you for your message

Hello Mihid and thank you for your detailed message. We understand how frustrating this situation must feel, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify the sequence of events and the final outcome.

On 4 December, you deposited 100 NZD and received a 150% bonus, resulting in a total playable balance of 250 NZD. With this balance, you generated winnings of approximately 700 NZD. A withdrawal request was submitted but was unsuccessful, as additional verification documents were required. At that stage, you were notified to contact us so that alternative withdrawal options could be discussed. This did not occur, and gameplay was resumed instead.

When the bonus-related winnings were reverted back to your balance, you had already accumulated 511 NZD in real-money funds, bringing your total balance at that point to 1,211 NZD.

Subsequently, on 4 December, you made a second deposit of 100 NZD without any bonus attached. Over the following days, gameplay continued using a balance that included both real funds and bonus-related funds. During this period, your balance increased to approximately 18,000 NZD.

As outlined clearly in our Bonus Terms and Conditions, once bonus funds are involved in gameplay, all resulting winnings remain subject to the maximum cash-out limit of 1,500 NZD. Continuing to wager with bonus-derived funds after the maximum cash-out threshold has been reached is not permitted and may result in winnings beyond this limit being forfeited.

Following a full internal review of your gameplay and transaction history, the balance was adjusted accordingly. You were left with 2,011.35 NZD, which consists of:

1,500 NZD — the maximum allowable cash-out from the bonus, and

511.35 NZD — confirmed real-money funds accumulated prior to the bonus winnings being returned to your balance.

This outcome reflects a correct application of the applicable bonus rules and does not involve any loss of eligible real-money winnings.

Regarding verification, we would also like to clarify that the requested card was not previously submitted before 12 December, and therefore the verification request was valid and necessary. This contradicts the statement that the same documents had already been provided.

We understand this is not the outcome you were hoping for, but we can assure you that the account has been handled in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, which were agreed to at the time of registration and bonus acceptance.

At this moment in time we have nothing else to add from our end.

Withdrawal Delay and Withdrawal Rejected after Verification
I deposited and played at Lucky Circus Casino using a bonus. The bonus wagering requirements were fully completed in accordance with the terms. After completion, I requested a withdrawal of €2,302.
Before submitting the withdrawal request, I uploaded all required KYC verification documents. Each document showed a green check mark, indicating that it had been reviewed and approved. I also contacted live chat before requesting the withdrawal and was explicitly informed that my account was fully verified and that I could proceed with the withdrawal. I have screenshots and chat transcripts confirming this.
Despite this confirmation, my withdrawal request was later rejected. When I contacted support, I was told that additional documents were required, even though those documents had already been uploaded and verified prior to the withdrawal request.
Later, support stated the following:
“Because there was documentation pending verification, after reviewing it, we have confirmed that you have verified it. Now, please just wait for your new withdrawal to be reviewed.”
This explanation is contradictory and misleading. My account verification had already been completed and confirmed before the withdrawal was requested. Verification is now being used retroactively as a reason to delay or reject payment.
At this point:
• The bonus wagering requirements were fully met
• All verification documents were uploaded and approved
• Account verification was confirmed by live chat
• No additional documents are required
There is no valid reason for my withdrawal to be rejected or delayed. I believe Lucky Circus Casino is unjustly withholding my funds and providing inconsistent explanations.
I am requesting that Lucky Circus Casino process and release my €2,302 withdrawal without further delay. I am willing to provide screenshots of verification status and chat confirmations to support this complaint.

Unable to withdraw winnings due to missing original payment method
Hello AskGamblers Team,

I would like to submit a complaint regarding my withdrawal issue at Lucky Circus Casino.

On 27 November 2025, I initiated my first withdrawal using Virtual Visa, which was also the method I previously used for depositing. As soon as I started this withdrawal, the casino began the KYC verification process.

I successfully completed the entire KYC procedure.
After verification, the casino informed me that I must withdraw using the same method as my last deposit. However, the Virtual Visa withdrawal option has disappeared from my account. The only available withdrawal method now is bank transfer.

I contacted support multiple times to explain that the original method is no longer available.

On 5 December, the casino asked me to submit a bank transfer withdrawal request, which I did.
However, the next day the withdrawal was cancelled, and I received the message:
“Please use the same withdrawal method as the one being used on your last deposit.”

I explained again that this method is no longer available to me. The casino repeated the same instruction, and my withdrawal was cancelled again, despite following their guidance.

Today, 10 December, support once again told me to “try again,” but the same issue continues with no resolution.

I am worried that the casino is unwilling or unable to process my withdrawal.

Amount pending: 14,000 NOK (~1,400 EUR)

What I am requesting

I kindly ask AskGamblers to assist me in ensuring that Lucky Circus processes my withdrawal using the only available method (bank transfer), or alternatively restores the Virtual Visa option so I can withdraw using the original deposit method.

I have followed all instructions, completed KYC, and attempted all withdrawal methods available to me. I am ready to provide any screenshots, emails, chat transcripts, or additional proof if needed.

Thank you for your assistance
