    I'm of the firm belief the casinos can stick their reverse bonus up their collective cramholes. As a gambler online, one of my few strengths is walking away after a good session, I don't recall ever reversing. It's not like you won't have a bonus again to use when you next deposit.

    Besides, after a 3 hours session of ups and downs, I emerge from the 'gambling warp' pale faced with a headache from too much stimulation. The last thing I want to do is start over with a massive playthrough!

    I've had a similar offer a few weeks ago, I was playing at a Jackpot Factory casino, made a €30 deposit, won €200 and went to the cashier to withdraw €150.
    As soon as I opened the withdraw page, I got interrupted by livechat, offering me a €50 extra bonus if I decided to play on.
    I was very surprised, and accepted the offer, as I wanted to play some more anyway, but with a bit of a 'bad taste' I have to say.
    It turned out good in the end, I won some more and made the playthrough, cashed out €250 in the end, this time without interruptions
    But I never expected this from a MG casino..

    I've never been asked or 'invited' to reverse a withdrawal at an MG casino, and I play at a LOT of them. Of course I haven't made many withdrawals...maybe that's why.

    Not only that they are hoping you lose back all of your money. Casinos do not like to lose money, so they tempt you with these reverse bonuses in hopes that you lose back your withdrawal and on top of everything else add a ridiculous wage requirement, In my opinion they should just give you the bonus with no WR attached. To me sounds like a stall tactic. Accredited or not.

    Copperpot declined the offer, so we will not know if it was a favourable bonus or not. But they should have informed him of any WR when they presented the offer.

    Also, maybe Copperpot was contacted by livechat...I've bordered on rude with them at the only playtech I'm at. I told them that I've informed more than once that I am aware they have a bonus team, and how to find them. If I would like to hear about the bonus offers available to me.

    People sometimes feel awkward to decline a "gift" offered to them. I don't know much about what games the OP was playing or the size of his withdrawal.

    Even with a 1XWR, for a player that modified martigales roulette, or a $10 a hand Blackjack player the intention is for them to continue on playing after a bad bit of luck, or if they win, they will probably figure they are "on a roll" and carry on some point past where the roll ends.

    After all, most of the people gambling online are gamblers, and that is what gamblers do.

    But no matter how it is presented, it is meant to keep your money there for you too play on after requesting a "flush".

    Casinos that do not flush and do not allow the opportunities for a player to use the reverse withdrawal feature to take a bonus, or often even to claim a bonus by making a new deposit while a withdrawal, are free to email a player such opportunities to use a reverse or partial reverse withdrawal bonus offer, IMHO. You have the opportunity to read the email and make your own decision, without the pressure that a chat window or telephone call entails. Again, meant to keep your money within the casino.

    Casinos that claim to flush upon request should do just that, flush the payment upon request.

    To be honest, other than first withdrawal requests, there is no real reason casinos can not handle payment requests to ewallets instantly.

    Hiya: OK Feel free to slam away at me, but there is another side to the coin.

    Free Money. Some players who do not want any type of bounus given to us, or anything that will have anytype of wagering requirements, can only get free money offers. These are usually a birthday bonus that is free, or them giving you some money free because of an issue on deposit or some such thing, or things like this.

    "I", also include Cancel withdraw for free money in the same catagory. Many years ago, "when U.S. players could play anywhere" i would get this offer quit a bit. So, I simply took advantage of it.

    Withdraw target is $1500. I have a balance of $1250. I know they will offer me money to reverse a withdraw. I make a withdraw request BEFORE i hit my target, get the free money from them, add it to my balance and am now closer to my actual withdraw target. Then just withdraw as normal. Weeeeee

    Actually it's not quite as simple as that. The costs of processing deposits and withdrawals for an online gambling operator can be quite steep - up to 10% - 12% in some cases so I'm told. Consequently a lot of smaller players who makes lots of deposits and withdrawals actually end up costing the casino/poker room/bingo site to have them as a player. Strange but true
