Also, I did not even select to receive a bonus, it is apparently applied to your deposits automatically. If i knew you could only bet 25mbtc when utilizing the bonus, I would not have accepted the bonus.

Hi, I understand you must be upset but you must be new to online casinos? You said you definitely noticed you received a bonus. At that point you should have read the terms and conditions as most online casinos have various terms on their SUB bonuses. I do agree that it sucks they add it automatically but they do have an option to disable the bonus in the bonus page. Anyways you can't just assume by taking a bonus that there are no restrictions thats why its important to read the terms and conditions. Many casinos have a max bet term when using bonus. I'm an experienced online casino player so anytime I think about taking a bonus on a new site I have a thorough read of the T&C and then decide if I'm still going to take their sign up bonus. A 25mbtc max bet term really isn't that bad for slots as its about $10 a spin. For table game players it isn't worth it using a bonus in that case. Anyhow you knowingly saw the bonus funds added and continued to play without asking questions or having it removed before your play. Hopefully Bitstarz refunds your deposit as that seems the right thing to do in this situation.

To summarize, player took 100% bonus and didn't read any of the bonus terms and conditions and managed to run up his balance quite a bit and only after requesting a withdrawl was notified that he breached the terms and conditions of using said bonus.

Player thinks its absurd to have a max bet term and that bitstarz is shady for having one but in the online casino industry its pretty standard. Many of the large online casino operators all have a max bet rule on bonuses. For example, Guts casino has a 7.50 euro max bet, and if I searched other large reputable online casinos I would expect to find comparable.

This is a valuable and costly lesson for the player if he so chooses to play any other online casinos and take their Sign Up Bonus that he should read through the terms and conditions very carefully as it relates to bonuses.

Just an FYI to anyone who is considering playing at BitStarz.com -- They are a huge scam and follow extremely unethical business practices. See below to learn how they screwed me over..

So, I deposited a pretty small amount of bitcoins (roughly 0.5btc or ~$200 USD) and I ended up crushing (up about 20 bitcoins when I was cashing out). I played fairly, and did not do anything that was against their terms and conditions.. I hit quads at Let it Ride within like 20 minutes (which was about 6 bitcoins or so). After that I played roulette and a few other table games plus some slots.

I eventually got to a point where I was up to 20 bitcoins, and decided to cash out. I started with a test of 1 bitcoin and sent it to my wallet just to make sure it went through smoothly. Shortly after this, my account was disabled, the withdrawal was "discarded" and a live chat popped up from a person named "Mike." At this point, things started to go downhill, and I assumed they were going to try to swindle me out of the money I won... I was right.

In live chat "Mike" said that I had violated their terms and conditions, and my winnings were "confiscated." I asked him why this happened, since I read the t&c before playing. He said it was clearly outlined that you cannot bet more than 25 mbtc when utilizing their bonus. This was definitely not clearly outlined in any way, as I looked over the terms and conditions pretty carefully before playing. Also, I did not even select to receive a bonus, it is apparently applied to your deposits automatically. If i knew you could only bet 25mbtc when utilizing the bonus, I would not have accepted the bonus.

So anyway, I asked Mike where it said there is a max bet and why it let me bet more than 25 mbtc if it was not allowed (since I obviously did not see it or I would not have bet over 25 mbtc)... He then said it was in their "bonus terms and conditions" which I had no idea even existed before playing. This is absurd, and is obviously just a cheap ploy for them to not have to pay people who actually win at their bitcoin casino. This information is buried deep on their website and very hard to find.

In case you don't understand how messed up this is... it's essentially the equivalent of going to a casino, in say Las Vegas, and sitting down at a table where the max bet is $25. You then somehow manage to bet $100 per hand for over 3 hours and win a good bit of money without the pitboss saying a word. You color up your chips and go to the cage, excited to cash out your winnings. When you get to the cage, they say sorry, we aren't giving you the money you won - you violated the terms and conditions that were written in tiny letters on a plaque when you walked into the casino. If I lost my bitcoins, I'm sure they wouldn't have credited me back because I "violated" their terms and conditions. What a scam..

Even if you read my review, and are aware of these extremely absurd bonus rules, it just goes to show you what kind of people they are. I would not trust them with any amount of money (or bitcoins), and would definitely not trust any of their associated online casinos. You should avoid BitStarz at all costs. When all was said and done BitStarz swindled me out of over $8,0000 USD (or 20 bitcoins). If you are going to gamble online, I would highly recommend that you find one that follows more ethical practices than BitStarz.

I hope that if you are on this page researching BitStarz, you find my review so you do not encounter any of the issues I came across. I would also recommend avoiding any of their associated online casinos. On their website it says that they are operated by Softswiss N.V. fwiw.

Well the same thing happened to me before, I turned my 0.01 btc to 0.3 btc in them, with thw bonus, The bonus wasn't really clearly stating eery rules so I assumed that it was alright for me to gwt the bonus but when I tried withdrawing, same thinv happened, they confiscated all my winnings because of the bonus issue but they returned my initial deposit which I eventually lost in their games.

Jacee,

Sorry to hear that the same issue happened to you. I assume there are also many others out there who this happened to, who I would encourage to share their review. Its definitely not right, and is probably how they keep their boiler room operation afloat. I would assume that all of their advertised "big winners" are fakes, and would recommend that everyone avoid them at all costs.

I agree that their bonus terms and conditions are not clearly outlined. You would think that something as important as a bet maximum would either be enforced directly on the games, or would be at the very least, clearly outlined in their terms and conditions (which they are not). I think their entire operation banks on people skipping over this information (since it is completely buried on their website), then when they win, they can confiscate the winnings and not lose any money. This is a complete scam and gives bitcoin a bad name. They owe me over 19 bitcoins and I'm not going to stop sharing my story until I'm paid what's owed to me.

Trayber,

First off I would assume that you are either an affiliate of BitStarz, or are somehow associated with them in one way or another. I read their terms and conditions before playing pretty carefully, and was not aware of a "bonus terms and conditions". If there is a bet max, they should enforce this directly on the tables/games, or should clearly state this before playing. Instead it is buried several paragraphs down, in a secondary terms and conditions section. This is a complete scam. It was a 50% bonus fwiw, and I won before that would have even been a factor. I was not taking advantage of them in any way, and deposited a good amount (so I was not, in any way, abusing their bonus). It is in fact extremely shady and not acceptable on their part.

No I am not any kind of affiliate or associated with them in any way. Notice I have no signature here pimping any casino or the likes. I rarely play on bitstarz. Look you chose to accept the bonus funds and willingly started gambling with them without checking terms on the bonus including excluded games, max bet terms etc. That is your fault and its a costly lesson you learned. They did nothing shady. The terms were there if you searched. I suggest going forward if you want to play table games with no limits then try bitcasino when using a bonus or another site that doesn't have limitations. Like I said most online casinos have terms that aren't all that friendly but they are offering a bonus money so its their decision how they want players to play on them and limit their risk. Some casinos are pretty lax on their terms and some not. I'm also a table game player and never do I take a bonus if I'm going to play table games. I only use bonuses on slots. Chalk it up buddy to a lesson learned when using a bonus. In the future I suggest not using any deposit bonuses so you can play the way you like.

It is my opinion that what they did is an extremely shady practice, and I will be going far out of my way to spread the word across every applicable website/forum/blog related to casinos, bitcoin gaming etc. It is not listed in their terms and conditions (which I did read thoroughly), but rather is listed in their "bonus terms and conditions" and is about halfway down the page, which doesn't stand out (I learned this only after the person in live chat sent me a direct url after confiscating my bitcoins). Something as important as this should be clearly outlined so that whoever is playing cannot miss it. Because that is not the case, it becomes a cheap and shady way for them to pray on those who do not spend hours reading through every sentence of their website. There are several easy ways for them to improve this, but they obviously choose not to as it is much more beneficial for them to mislead their users. Now whenever someone wins they can just say sorry, all your winnings are being confiscated - see section 2.45345 of our t&c. My final word - if you cannot bet more than 25 mbtc, then do not let players bet more than 25 mbtc. This is a massive scam, and I hope others will come forward to share their bad experiences with BitStarz.

Player was recording his game play when he
suddenly got a €16,200 win on Supernova game!


MEGA WIN ON SUPERNOVA: €16,200 ON A SINGLE SPIN!
"Rai75" from Latvia was having a few spins on the popular slot
and managed to win the colossal amount of €16,200 earlier this week.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/jv0qvxahoxj5whe/2015-11-18%20at%2012.59.jpg
Video is here: youtu.be/_9X8QCjDLGU


But this is not the first time that this game pays big. In August, a player
known under the pseudonym "hamsterchops" won over €17,000 while
playing the same game!

Why don't you try your luck at this smokin' hot video slot?
Play it here: bitstarz.com/#game-quickfire-MGS_SupernovaSlot-7387

Did you guys actually pay "Rai75" or did you confiscate all of his winnings like you do with most other users, scammers.

[Trayber]

Look bro you just don't get it. It is the players responsibility to scour the terms and conditions of the website you choose to play on. It's not as hidden as you say. If you go to the promotions tab and click on any of the terms and conditions on the bonuses they offer it brings up the Bonus Terms and Conditions. Anyways good luck in the future and next time you choose to play with bonus funds from a casino triple check the terms or ask the live chat for a direct link to the terms. I feel for you its a costly lesson you learned and next time with due diligence hopefully you won't run into this again. I suspect this casino bitstarz has refunded your deposit. You stand no ground with your case thats the facts. You clearly broke the terms of the bonus played and they denied the cashout. If you feel you have some sort of case take it up with one of the sites out there that does mediating between the casino and player. Coming here with your story will do you no good other than to vent. Since you don't seem very experienced playing online I'll direct you to askgamblers and you can file your complaint there. However, like I said you don't have much ground to stand on because you broke the terms by placing a bet higher than the max bet while on a bonus. Good luck.

[cryptosmoker]

I don't think this makes Bitcasino a scam and they do technically have the right not to pay this player because he clearly violated the terms.  Next time he will obviously be more careful at whatever casino he plays at.

That being said...

The max bet rule is incredibly scummy and predatory.  They have claimed it's a term in place to "protect themselves" from abuse - which is total bullshit.  There is absolutely no rational excuse for including a maximum bet other than the revenue it generates when players unknowingly violate it.  I'd love to hear bitcasino try and claim otherwise. (and no, just because other online casinos like "guts casino" do it does not make it ethical) In this case, it generated nearly 20 bitcoin of revenue for them.

Shame on bitstarz and any other casino that includes such a term.

@btcgambling, sucks man - but that's how things work around here, next time you gotta put more effort into reading the terms, otherwise you might get fucked again.

Thanks for the support and advice cypto, I actually did read the "terms and conditions" very thoroughly. As per the "bonus terms and conditions" I was not even aware of this, or the 25 mbtc max bet (obviously, or I would have followed them accordingly).. In all fairness it is not made clear enough. This scummy part of the bonus terms is located roughly 75% of the way down the page, buried in section 12 of part 3... so it is certainly not "clearly outlined". A few people, including BitStarz, have said that this is "common" but I do not see such parameters listed on other more reputable casinos such as Bovada for example. It is, in my opinion, a complete scam that they use for the sole purpose of confiscating the winnings of anyone who legitimately wins. I'm sure there are tons of other people this has happened to besides myself. There is no other justifiable reason for them to use such tactics, other than to scam people out of winning at their casino. I think that is pretty obvious and it just goes to show what kind of operation they are running.

Sometimes when casinos are underfunded they place these terms in order to prevent them from losing money. It also makes it difficult for a player to place a large enough bet to dig their way out of a hole when they are on a big losing streak. Its a predatory terms and places like this should be avoided if you are planning on using bonuses...
