My usual provincial online casino was down for maintenance for some hours so I decided to try this one out.. big mistake. I put in $25 via e-transfer, did the usual up and down and ended up losing. Went back to my usual and still under maintenance, so I put in another $30 via e-transfer. It didn’t seem to go through but said it could take 15 minutes, so I waited. About an hour later I decided it must not have gone through, so I did it again and my $30 showed up immediately. It says if your transfer doesn’t get accepted it’ll be declined and refunded so I wasn’t worried. I played with my $30 and lost again, no big deal, decided to go to bed. Now this morning I went to see if I got my failed e-transfer back, and I had received an email from the casino with a simple link to cancel the transfer if I didn’t want it to go through, so I clicked it and it came up with a "transaction cancelled". Cool. So I checked the bank a few hours later and they had not refunded my money. They had attached their version of a "bonus" to it so they matched my deposit. Now because of this, I can’t withdraw my funds, because they have a 70x wagering requirement. So for me to get my $30 back I have to either deal with the nightmare of casino customer service, or somehow win and gamble $2100 before I’m able to cash out anything. It wasn’t even wager $70 before you can take $1, it’s just a straight you must now wager $2100 (or 70x your deposit) until you can withdraw anything. Now annoyed and completely uninterested, I find no option anywhere to have my account terminated. I found an email that says just send an email to this address and list a reason for termination… they responded with an automated message that said this mailbox is not monitored, here’s the link for gamblers anonymous. Remarkably displeased.
