BitStarz Casino - Hráč neobdržel vkladový bonus.

I signed up to bitstarz and we deposited $200aud. Which should have came with a 100% bonus. However we never received the bonus and when we asked support the said sorry but you should have checked with us about the bonus before we played the $200 we deposited and refused to help and blamed us for not receiving the bonus.

Dear Murray,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely. Could you please confirm that the bonus that you have tried to redeem was the following one?

$2000 +180 FREE SPINS, FIRST DEPOSIT (https://www.bitstarz.com/promotions)

Why your bonus hasn’t been granted? I have checked bonus terms and conditions, and I didn’t find Australia between the countries which are not eligible for bonuses. Which payment method you have used to deposit funds? ? I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Petronela

Hello. Yeah that is the correct bonus.

We signed up and deposited $200 only because we were promised a $200 bonus. We deposited the $200 via visa and the bonus wasn't added. As we were new to the casino we assumed the bonus would be added once we had spent our deposit. When that didn't happen we promptly contacted support only to be greater with a rude and unhelpful staff member called Adam. He essentially blamed us for not receiving the bonus because we didn't contact them before we spent our $200. No where does it mention that the bonus will be added instantly and no where does it say if their system fails to give bonus that we won't receive the bonus at all. This is extremely disspointing and disheartening. We are on a few online gambling social media pages and we will make this very clear to the thousands of members to be careful with this particular online casino.

Thank you very much Murray for your quick reply. I have checked bonus terms and conditions, and this is what I found https://www.bitstarz.com/bonus-terms-and-conditions:

"Deposit bonuses will be added instantly. If you're eligible for a deposit offer and do not receive it, you need to contact the customer support before you start playing. Failure to do so will disqualify you from receiving the bonus retroactively."

Please understand that once your deposit has been played out it was too late already to activate the bonus. Do not hesitate to let me know if there is any additional information that I have overlooked, otherwise, I will be forced to reject your complaint. Thank you in advance for your reply and understanding.

Thank you for your time in looking into my complaint. I know know to be careful when expecting resolutions to online gambling casinos. And won't be depositing any more money to this casino. The customer service is terrible. If for some reason thier system malfunctions and doesn't add the bonus then that should be ok them to compensate. Or there should be a warning notification stating not to play deposit until bonus is added. Waste of time and money for us. We wouldn't have used this casino if we knew we wouldnt get the 100% bonus.

I do understand your disappointment and I’m sorry we were not able to help you with this case. However, do not hesitate to contact us in the future, if you run into any issues with this or any other casino. We are here to help. I will reject your complaint now. Thank you for your understanding.
