i joined wintingo and they asked if i would like a bonus i asked what their bonus was and they said 30 per cent i said i dont want any bonus if there is any wagering requirements they said thats ok i can have real cash no wagering requirements which i received for months they knew how i felt about wagering requirements and would not accept any bonus unless i got real cah back without the wagering requirements , they agreed to let me have this they had loads of special offer free prize draws if i entered various codes but their codes never worked, after a few months thery said because i was a good customer they were giving me a 90 per cent bonus , they never told me this had any catches and led me to believe it was the same as my previous bonus i bet thousands of pounds and did not know their was a catch unyil i had almost 10.00 bonus and had won 300.00 and came to withdraw it and it said i could not withdraw because i had to bet 289.69 more to withdraw my money out, i sent them an e mail they replied saying they were sorry they did not tell me this bonus had wagering requirements i said i was annoyed because they led me to believe it was the same no strings attached no wagering requirements of which they said sorry i have copies of the e mails with them saying they did not tell me also i asked why once again i was not entered into their free prize draws they said it was because i was on 90 per cent bonus yet their promotion did not say you could not claimif you were on a higher bonus i did not get the free entries when i was on lower cash back either i feel they totally misled me .

Hi Rob

Yes I have taken your comments on board , thank you. You did mention you have some new team members joining you soon, I am sure this will ease a lot of the issues which you have been burdened with, still a little confused that I was granted another bonus yet I was still under the impression it was a no strings attached bonus as this is always what i have requested and it was not until i tried to withdraw knew anything had changed yet on no occasion what so ever was i informed there were large wagering requirements attached to this bonus as this is something i have always refused.

Hi

Yes i was always on the no wagering requirement then all of a sudden i received notification because i was a good customer would receive the 90 per cent but this did not include being eligible for entry of your draws and only the 30 per cent bonus was eligble for entry into your free draws of which I was not entered into and never had free entrance to any draws regardless of which bonus i was on, so something was missed in this instance, thank you.

thank you for reply , however i was never informed by anyone that my no wager bonus, no strings attached which i have always mane plain to you is the only one i was interested in, therefore i have received an e mail stating you did not make me aware my bonus terms which i have a seperate copy of had been altered but made it look like you were keeping me on same no wager . no strings attached bonus and just increasing the bonus. please see under mentioned :

this is what you sent me

To compensate for the Lucky Draws I have left your deposit match bonus at 90% instead

This does not mention wagering requirements and makes it sound as though you have just increased my no strings bonus because i wasnt entered into the draws.

I have other e mails which i have sent stating i am only interested in no wagering no strings attached bonus of which wintingo have replied , at at no points have wintingo mentioned the y have given me a better bonus but there is wagering requirements.

i think i have been slightly misled.

At WinTingo we are totally transparent with our bonus system the terms and conditions are clearly shown in our mailers and in the promotion section of our website. Our cashback system is our unique feature which allows players to earn cashback on every deposit that is made. The important point with cashback is that it is awarded into a Pending cashback balance and is not given to a player upfront as with a standard casino bonus.

Player starts playing with the funds that they have deposited and the pending cashback draws down as real money while they play. This is not a deposit match bonus, the overriding benefit is that you can withdraw your real money balance at any time; you do not have to wait until all the wagering is complete.

At WinTingo we do reward regular players which means the more they play the higher the cashback offers they get and on certain days of the week players can get 100% cashback on their deposits.

In some cases players have opted to have their bonus money upfront which falls outside of our standard cashback offering. Receiving promotion money upfront means that you have the full wagering requirements to play through before you can withdraw.

Please be sure you understand the difference between a deposit match bonus and a cashback bonus before you deposit all terms and conditions are shown on:

Verification & payment delay
Hi I had a win at winging of Tuesday just gone now it's Saturday which isn't a great length of time however to be sure I had zero problems on Tuesday I made a phone call to customer service as getting communication on live chat is useless. Spoke to rep on phone was told to supply usual in my case photo I'd recent utility bill and credit card I explained at the time I have the most recent card I deposited with but a previous one I'm unsure of whereabouts I was told that's fine as long as I have the most recent one. Now since then I have been in contact everyday as they have asked for something else everyday originally it was a more clear photo of my license as its faded a bit not such a problem then yesterday I look and my withdrawal had been reversed no contact from them so I call again and was told I was missing a document they asked for in which they hadn't. It was my older credit card searched the house hi and low found it sent pictures off. The rep I spoke to said it was all that was needed to finalise verification so I was happy. Few hours later I get an email saying I've not supplied them funny but about that was at bottom of that email was the stuff I had written on the email with pic attached. So fast forward to this evening I get an email saying they now need a selfie with my photo I'd which I found odd but sent it anyway then made another phone call spoke to rep told him it seems to be a delay in payment tactic as there's no where in their guidelines that states this is necessary. His reply is that it's required by the gambling commission. I told him that is false and have never had this sort of hassle with any other casino. He also said once I've sent the doc that they request that will be it and I'll be verified to which I replied that I'm having trouble believing this as I've been replying to requests all week and they just keep asking more did get a little cheeky and said I'm worried I'll get to Monday and they'll ask for a picture of my dog lol. He also suggested that I've never had this hassle with any other casino before because they don't take their security seriously. At the end after getting no where I said thank you for nothing it's time I came here to make a complaint so here I am. Nothing they have asked for is out of this world but really appears they are stalling perhaps it's because they think if they stall verification and get to the weekend I'll put my winnings back through the casino not going to happen if they don't get their act together it's not likely they will get another deposit out of me ever

Delaying verification and withdrawal
On June 27 requested first withdrawal. Verification request followed next and everything was sent immediately. After three days asked what's the status and it was said that verification is still taking place. Later they asked to upload documents in my profile. Since they had blocked my account on verification process, I replied that I can only send via e-mail and it is impossible what they ask. After clearing out that e-mail with attachment is fine. Nevertheless, i got similar requests three (!!!) more times. After each case they kind of admitted that all is good. Then came another document request - my selfie with ID document. So, I sent that and asked to confirm if they have received. Got such confirmation (this was not auto reply confirmation since it come some 12 hours later and specifically referring to my question ). After a few days I again checked how it is going. It turned out that despite confirmation of receiving documents actually they haven't received these docs (at least they claim so). So, I sent one more time and again after 12 hours got confirmation they have received. So, it is now 11 days of verification process going with no signs it could be done anywhere close in a future. Needless to say that I sent everything ASAP - this is not the first verification process I am going through. The worst part here is that support people are totally incompetent and replies take a long time. Document that are sent are lost, they give false answers, promise things that does not happen and ask impossible things (account is blocked, but they ask to login and upload docs). Situation is especially tragic when case is taken over by different agents - they get lost very quickly. This verification process usually take 1 day in decent casinos, but it is nonsense here. After googling a bit, I realised that there have been a lot of cases like that, including complaints in askgamblers.com. No idea if this can be solved, but at least there should be note at this casino is is some sort blacklist.
