Resolved Roulette at Bwin - error in software again!!!

[Janek12]

There is a serious error in the download version of European Roulette Pro at Bwin.
It is the same error I pointed out to Bwin in May. On some spins, the software ignores the bet - sometimes this results in the player not receiving winnings when he should and sometimes this results in the player not losing his bet.

Under this link, there is a video that proves there is an error.

Notice that when I press the Rebet button, which says "Rebet 0", a bet of 0.70 EUR is placed. This alone shows there is an error in the software.
The implications are that this affects the RTP of roulette in ways that are unknown (even in May, I was unable to spot any pattern when the software ignores a bet; sometimes it ignored the bet every 10th spin or so and at one time it ignored 3 bets in a row).

I don't know how it appeared in the software again; it may have something to do with the fact they upgraded the software yesterday and the upgrading version.
I have sent an e-mail to customer support; I will post any updates, just as I did in May. That time, it took me around a week to convince them there was a serious error in the software and them it took them approximately another week to correct the error.

Good work!

It's one of the great things about this site. Members are always willing to share stuff like this to help protect others.

I'm not sure if Bwin has a rep here, but it might be worth alerting them if there is.

Thank you Nifty. I have written to their customer support by e-mail; I think that should be sufficient. Their customer support responds always quite quickly to e-mails, in a matter of hours (always on the same day, I think), so I think they will be aware of the problem soon. How quickly they will respond in an effective manner this time... that remains to be seen .

IMPORTANT UPDATE!

The error also occurs in the Instant Casino!

Out of curiosity, I tried the instant casino and the error occurs there as well.
For anyone interested in seeing the same thing again and again , here is the video.

I did not find any reps in my quick search. I think they used to have one here, but not any more I guess

Oh no, not this AGAIN!

It does seem likely they haven't implemented their fix from last time so that it applies to updates.

Hopefully they'll fix it a little faster this time, and take measures to prevent it happening again.

This time, they did not give me any compensation or reward for pointing out the error to them. It's probably safe to assume that they also did not compensate anyone else who played the software during the period when the error was present in the software and they left the faulty software available on their site for anyone to play for 6 days!... IMO, this behaviour is such a slap in the face of their customers.
