Removed 2200+ of winnings without any reason and explanation


I started playing in Kudos casino in the middle of March. I made a couple of deposits, i really enjoyed playing Roulette here and finally got lucky and won 2 200 EUR. It was on 13th April that I have sent the docs for verification and immediately got a response from the casino that my docs would be processed and verified right away. Unfortunately, shortly after that i discovered that my casino account was empty. On the 1st of June I sent the email to the casino asking what was the reason for the casino to take away my win and got no answer since then. The casino ignored me completely without any explanation. It seems the casino is just not willing to pay my win.

AskGamblers Complaints Team have been provided with valid evidence on behalf the management of Kudos Casino where it is clearly displayed that player had two credits of $125 each, and not one of $250. Considering the fact that the player already admitted that he has placed bets of $50, unfortunately the player has breached Kudos Casino terms:


"During play with Kudos Credits wagers may not exceed 25% of the original credit amount. This is active as long as the Kudos Credits remain in the account balance regardless of the wagering requirement."


Based on the above, AskGamblers Complaints Team consider this case as Resolved and it is now officially closed. In case of a disagreement with our decision we remind player that further assistance on this matter could be requested from the relevant licensing authority responsible for Kudos Casino.

Dear Kudos Casino,

Please provide evidence that player breached casino's terms and that aforementioned bonus was actually two separate bonuses. Aforementioned evidence please send directly to the AskGamblers Complaint Team at suppor­­t@­a­s­kg­­amb­­le­r­s.com.

Thank you in advance.

Hi, Tom,

I am really disappointed. The way you cheat on players is just unacceptable. This is not a thing that can happen in a good casino…

Casino refuses to pay me after I won from free spins

I won $100 off of free spins given to me by Kudos casino. I've made a deposit, have been KYC verified, and have done one successful withdrawal. The reasons for then denying my withdrawal seem to be made up on the spot and keep changing.

First they said I only get $50 not $100 which I corrected them on when I informed then I've made a deposit so the MCO rule of $50 for non depositers doesn't apply to me. Then they said they denied the payment because I used the bonus two days in a row without a deposit in between. After much back and forth and me sending screenshots of the promotions terms and conditions I eventually got them to admit that this coupon was allowed to be used once per day for 7 days without a deposit in between use.

Next they said it's because I had a non deposit bonus that was used before this coupon and claimed that my kudos Cashback that's given 3 times after each deposit counts as a non deposit bonus... I looked this up in the terms and conditions and found this to be completely untrue, nowhere could I find any language stating that kudos cashback was treated as a non deposit bonus. I also pointed out that them saying it's because I used a non deposit bonus wouldn't even apply to this coupon because the terms state that it can be used once per day for 7 days without a deposit in between which is why I was able to redeem it in the first place.

Every other bonus says deposit underneath it and will not allow me to redeem it but this was the only one that I could because it's allowed to be used without a deposit, like it states in the terms it can be used once per day for 7 days and only one cash out is allowed. Also make note of the screenshots below where Lisa tells me that I've made 5 non deposit bonuses without making a deposit.

So you get kudos Cashback 3 times after making and losing a deposit, nowhere in the terms and conditions can I find anything that states this is treated as a non deposit bonus. The other two bonuses they are claiming I used is the same one that I won off of which is perfectly allowed because it is stated in the terms and conditions. She even says that this 7 day promo is counted as one big offer so why is she counting the free spins used each day individually?

Funds taken by cashier
Good afternoon. I don't want to spend your time so directly to the problem.
I have an account in Kudos Casino. I have redeemed a no deposit bonus and luckily i've made true the wagering requirements and i've won ~ 100$. I've sent all the documents for the account verification and i was told that i will receive an email that they will be sent to the cashier for review and i will be notified if there is anything else required. After 2 days i've received an email to make a deposit of min. 25$ for the account verification, that unfortunately i didn't see. 6 days later i've asked if there is any problem with my documents i was told that i need to send address proof . I've send bank statement and i was told that it will be checked from the cashier. While i was waiting for the confirmation that when i make a deposit i will be able to withdrawal, the money from my account disappeared. My live chat was blocked and no one answered my emails. I've managed to connect to the live chat from another browser without entering my account and when i've asked kindly why my balance is 0.00 the answer was "we told you to make a deposit on the 30th of April, you ignored our email
bye"
After that i was blocked again and the chat was deleted.
I am keeping the email conversation and i've managed to copy the live chat conversation, but it disappeared before before i make a screenshot, so it is on PDF file.
Thank you in advance for your time and support.

Greetings,
Sami Lafi

Declined payment due to unfair application of terms
I received a Kudos deposit of $60 on my account on 12-30-2018. I am a level three player on this site and am allowed to cash out a maximum of 22x any kudos deposit ($1320). I met all play through requirements and Playing slots and blackjack, I was able to get me balance up to $1372.63. I requested a withdrawal of $1,312.63, leaving the $60 Kudos credit in my account for removal.

On 12-1-18 I received an email from Kudos Casino stating "Unfortunately you have exceeded max bet on the kudos credits applied to you. Players must bet less than 25% or the credit given as per the terms. You have exceeded this. You play is thus void I am afraid."

I responded to the email quoting their rules. " During play with Kudos Credits wagers may not exceed 25% of the original credit amount. This is active as long as the Kudos Credits remain in the account balance regardless of the wagering requirement." My maximum bet was $15 and I did not exceed the 25% maximum bet rule.

I received this response 2 days later on 12-3-2018:
Hi David,
You are correct in this and as such we have re-instated your balance now. I do apologise for the confusion and the inconvenience here.
Please let me know if I can assist you further,
Kind Regards,
Kudos Support

At this point I thought everything was all set. The $1372.63 was returned to my account and I requested another withdrawal. I the waited until 12-5-18 just to receive another email declining payment again for the same reason. I emailed back quoting their prior acknowledgement that I had not exceeded the betting rules. They then sent me a log showing some of my wagers that "exceeded" the 25% rule. The log showed wagers of $15 that were doubled down making the total bet $30 as their reasoning. I have played at other RTG casinos with similar wagering restrictions and cashed out with no issues after making many maximum allowed bets which were then doubled down on and or split. I always read the terms and conditions carefully and follow the rules.

There was no phone number to contact the casino and live chat has not been available either. I assume this could be easily taken care of with management at the casino, but it has been frustration only being able to contact through email. Reviews of the casino appear to be positive and I have enjoyed playing there. I also cannot find any other complaints like mine online, so I assume this is just the mistake of an employee at the casino and will be easily fixed. I have copies of all emails back and forth with Kudos as well as the play log they sent me.
