I signed up to zodiac casino because of the bonus of deposit £1 and get a free £20 bonus to play with so i spoke with someone fro the help desk and they explained it all i had a look at the terms and conditions and these must have been different ones from what i have been emailed about. I then played on Megah moolah and game of thrones slots and met the wagering conditions and tried to withdraw my funds i contacted live help and they told me it would take 48 hours to process 72 hours went by until i went back onto live help for them to tell me risk management wanted me to contact them i sent a email to them straight away with being told it takes 48 hour to reply i waited. i waited for a whole week in fact eventually somebody helped me and emailed them to contact me later that night they did as well as blocking my account and voiding my winnings because i deposited using my mothers paypal i only used it because in the past money from my credit card has been taken due to online shopping so i decided to use my mothers paypal i can prove it is my mothers and can use my credit card to get the money out if this issue gets resolved. they seemed fast enough to take money out of the account i even had calls to try and get me to deposit this happened a numerous of occasions but when i try and take money out i have to wait a week to get my account locked? to me i feel although i have been scammed as you knew the problem but did not tell me this would occur instead you tried squeezing more money from me. i have since emailed them and am awaiting a reply hopefully this time it is replied to sooner.

Hi Luke

I realise this might be a tough one on your end, but the rules of the casino clearly state that this is not allowed.

General Promotion Terms and Conditions:
10. "If the Credit Card, Ewallet or financial account used to deposit and/or withdraw funds is not in the name of the individual registered on the Casino Classic account, then all winnings will be void."

These are the terms you agreed to when you created your account at the casino. To do this you ticked a box stating you had read and agree with these terms. The casino cannot be responsible for terms read elsewhere as these are clearly shown on the website as well as within the software on registration.

Unfortunately since the terms have been broken, I can't do anything more. Of course if you are unhappy with the casino's decision you can also go to eCogra.

All the best.

Cheers

£3000 winnings voided and confiscated
basically i have played online casinos for many years on and off . small amounts here and there. in the past when receiving welcome bonuses i might have created duplicate accounts at the same casino. which i did with zodiac. last tuesday i received a call from zodiac telling me i had won the daily internal lottery and my account had been credited with a bonus of £120 to play and win. that evening i went home and started playing the casino with my bonus. after a few hours i had won over £3000 after checking that i had done the play through i decided to withdraw £3000. which i did. next day i get an email to say my winnings are being processed. yesterday (tuesday) i noticed that the withdraw was still pending taking it into three business days so i spoke to the online chat who told me i would have to email risk management. which i did only to be told by annabelle that the winnings were voided and confiscated because i had multiple accounts open. go back to last october i had a similar thing where i won £400. same thing happened. After speaking to annabelle via email and her explaining that i could only have one account she agreed to pay out the £400 as long as i stuck to just the one account. And as i explained to her now that i knew this i would do just that. And I did. everything was fine. I got paid out and if i went back on to zodiac i would use the same account. now I've won money again the same excuse has come up not to pay. this is not justified as we spoke at the time and i have not been using multiple accounts just the one we agreed on, if anything they should have closed down any other accounts at the time as they are not used. also now they have locked my account. i have done nothing wrong. i have stayed within the guidelines i only played last thursday because of the phone call from their promotions team. i should not be vilified for this and the that payment should be made to me. please advise i do have a copy of the email form last october if you want to see it. regards graham
