Hypothetical Question...

It would be most unwise to play it and WIN, this would give them every excuse to void the winnings.
If the amount is small, it would be reasonable to keep it as a bonus (many times I have had a bonus added, but no E-mail telling me why).
If the casino has a decent cashcheck facility, it should be possible to find out where the funds came from. With MG, it is PLAYCHECK that you need to look at to track a bonus, select the relevant session, and apply the game filter to show a game you have not played, then select "detail" - this should show the bonus. Some MG casinos have a bug, where the filter is lost when you select "detail".

If the amount is large, and pretty obviously a mistake, I doubt you could get away with playing it, although if you lost it, you could just uninstall the casino rather than have them deduct it from your next deposit (as many will do).

The biggest mistake I have experienced was when I had a Neteller timeout. I complained to CS, and was not happy to be told it would take till after the weekend (I wanted to play a promotion). They managed to credit the �2000, and I played, however, at the end of the weekend ANOTHER �2000 appeared. It took THREE attempts to convince CS is wasn't mine, and when I did manage, they said it could take 48 hours to fix, but in the meantime I could play, and they would deduct the �2000 from my balance. I didn't play, as I didn't want to risk losing it & having my next deposits owing to the casino. I got �100 for my honesty

I have read here of a player at 32Red who had over 1000 credited twice in error as a withdrawal, and 32Red let them keep it

(Which made them look a bit silly, as they had given 32Red a public roasting on the forum over it).

i got 500 once, played it up to 3k and withdrew without hesitation. Next day i found it in my neteller. (a non accredited RTG).

I got extra $1500 into my Neteller from a big player in the industry.

Thanks all

It was hypothetical and I was asking for a friend, thought it might have been a way to recoup something. No more details but it was in the kilobucks range.

I have had it occur a couple of times. Last time it was some ecocard chaos where they didn't accept the transfer from casino, so casino tried again and they both went through at the same time

I didn't get any kudos for putting it back in my casino account for the manager to wipe, but that's okay.
Another time a casino had just joined CR and didn't have their terms straight yet. ( no minimum # of bets) I took some free dough into LOADED betting big and won scads. The CS was a bit bitchy insisting that the term was there when it wasn't. I finally said, whatever, and went back in and played one penny one line to meet the term. (and to piss them off

) Next day there was another $200 cash.

You know that feeling you get when you walk by a coin slot and there's one in the bin? No player card there, just a leftover coin. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.
