Complaint #3 RoyalSea Casino

Unfair bonus

By Török L.

2 months ago

I deposited €95 to receive a 20% no-wager bonus and 30 free spins.

After the deposit, my balance became €114, but only €19 was available. The €95 I deposited was locked, and I was not able to cancel the bonus.

I was forced to use the 30 free spins, which resulted in €5 winnings. Even after completing the free spins, I still could not cancel the bonus.

When I started playing, my real money balance was gradually converted into bonus money. This made it impossible to withdraw my own deposited funds.

To unlock the balance, I had to wager the €5 bonus 30 times (€150 wagering requirement). After completing this, my balance reached approximately €115.

However, I only received €15 because of a maximum win limit of 3x the bonus amount. This condition effectively made it impossible to recover my deposited funds.

Additionally, I contacted support 5 times requesting bonus cancellation and a refund of my €95 deposit. Each time I was told to wait 20–30 minutes, but no action was taken.

This situation is unfair because:
- My real money was locked and converted into bonus funds
- I was not allowed to cancel the bonus
- Winnings were heavily restricted by hidden or unclear limits

I request a full refund of my €95 deposit.

Dear AskGamblers Team and LACAPACA47,

We have reviewed your case and forwarded it to our technical department for further investigation. We would like to inform you that, unfortunately, due to a technical issue on our side related to the bonus, a compensation amount of €100 has been credited to your gaming account. You can verify this amount in your personal account on our website.

From our side, we also recommend reviewing the bonus terms more carefully in the future, as the x30 wagering requirement and the maximum payout limit are integral parts of bonus offers.

We wish you a great day!

Sincerely,
Royalsea Support Team

With every spin, my locked (real deposited) balance kept decreasing, and the amount was continuously transferred to the bonus balance. By the time I completed the 30×€5 wagering requirement, the entire amount had effectively become bonus funds.

When I finally completed the wagering, I only received €15, because the maximum payout was capped at €35 or three times the bonus amount.

I would like to ask the Royalsea management: is this fair? This is not gambling, this is deception. There are only two possible outcomes: either I complete the wagering and receive just €15 back from my original €95 deposit, or I lose everything. There is no real possibility to win in this system – it is effectively a 100% scam.

Please provide an explanation. Additionally, it was not even possible to cancel the bonus; I contacted live chat four times about this issue. This clearly constitutes unfair practice.
