Slots wagering on table games bonus

[elscrabinda]

Its ridiculous that any casino would disallow slots on a table games bonus, and any player who chooses slots over blackjack is one they should value and not enforce their illogical rules on.

Email the rep here and the manager. Between them, one may have some sense.

See here to me this is where it gets sticky with casinos.
I will agree yes it was a blackjack and I'm assuming a table games bonus.
Yet...
To me if your playing a blackjack bonus with oh say a 40X WR and you decide to switch to slots. I'm still not getting how this could be a bad thing. Considering that pretty much your taking the worse of the two games and actually attempting to make some headway.
Now I've always understood why you can't take a slots bonus then play table games. Just be the WR are always lower just because your odds aren't as good. Yet it always baffles me when a casino gets all greedy and says. Even though the WRs are higher and it was a blackjack bonus. We can't pay you just because the bonus wasn't meant for slots.

Yep, agree with most people above - they should definitely return your deposit.

No casino should have the right to keep your deposit if you play the wrong games - and especially not an accredited one!

I hope that you will "name and shame" this casino, because it's just not on.

Thanks for the support all!

Got an answer yesterday on my email, they are still not budging:

Our Terms are very clear. When you redeem a bonus, it is your responsibility to ensure you are aware of the attached Terms. You deposited and redeemed a bonus and both were used to play and collect winnings. When the Terms were broken, your deposit and bonus and the winnings you compiled from them, are considered null and void.

Strangely enough, the deposit part is nowhere to be seen in the terms they quoted before.. Guess it would be nice if I didn't notice.

Only bets on the listed Bonus Games will count towards the wagering requirement, all other games are excluded until the playthrough requirement has been met. Any play on an excluded game will result in the bonus and all winnings being rendered null and void.

I have pretty much given up their "normal" support. Gonna alert their forum rep about this thread to see if it makes a difference.

Doesn't make any sense to me why they would keep your deposit. Besides the transaction fees, they shouldn't be out anything...

Name and shame the Casino

[kakata]

.....dear casino...... whoever you are.
would you have sent him an e-mail if had lost ?
why dont they just disallow games that are not allowed in the bonus?
A simple pop up message when a forbidden game is attempted....
we will probably never know

Sorry for being a bit unresponsive the last days, it just reflects the response I've been getting from the casino - none!

No reply on my last email to support asking about a term justifying confiscation of my deposit.
No response from their forum rep, even though she has been online since I PM'ed her.
In fact, only reaction I got was a two day waiting period instead of the usual 24h when withdrawing my remaining balance there. (Not complaining about their withdrawal times though, just noticed the extra day)

So I guess it's time to "name and shame" them for those of you who are wondering - It's the glorious Lock Casino

Needless to say, they won't get much action from this player from now on. I guess I'm stuck back at iNetBet.

That will never happen unfortuantelly KAK,

this option works so much in the casino's favour.

I Mean, we all know that a lot of peopple DO play restricted games and most of them will lose and not think anythin of it so the casino wins that money..
On the other hand the client DOES win on the bonus and has played restricted games and requests a cashout the casino will deny it on the grounds of " restricted games"

This is a coplete win-win for a casino and I will assure you wont change anytime soon.

There is a lot about this story the OP isn't saying here that is completely relevant to the decision taken by Lock. I've asked them for an update and will report back soon.

If this pans out the way I'm anticipating it will the OP will be proven guilty of gross distortion and manipulation of this situation. Speak bullshit, expect pain.
