Fair Go - casino no information and all implications

Hi hammington - welcome to ThePOGG.com!

Do you have a copy of the communication where you were told an exception was being made?

Thanks,

ThePOGG

Hi yes I do have the email still. How do I send it to you?

All g I saw the part in red at the top I will forward you the email right now

Hi hammington,

Thanks for your emails - I'll contact the operator and see what we can find out for you.

Sorry I forgot to mention that I also spoke to a customer rep and was told I should have recite an email from support detailing what happened with the exception. I did not receive that email

hi POGG

the more i think about the stranger it becomes i spoke to two customer reps when i had a lot more money than 5k aud in my account and none of them said there was a problem with it when they looked into my account for other reasons. But when the money was taken out the customer rep then said my acount was like a free bonus as the vip host mentioned in our phone call

Hi pogg

Hope you had a merry Christmas. I was wondering am I able to withdraw the 5k in my account while this is being sorted or should I leave it alone?

Hi hammington,

I would suggest holding off on making any withdrawals while we carry out our conversation with the operator, but that is just a best guess. I do not have a concrete 'what you should do' answer for you in this situation. Your case is unusual and is likely to take a lot of discussion before a ruling can be reached.

Thanks,

Hi

I had to take the money out as I've been financially burdened by the spending due to me thinking that I had won 100k. I hope I have not hurt the case at all but I would hope if the ruling is in my favour they can just add to my account the difference.

Hi hammington,

I've now discussed this issue in full with FairGo Casino.

You are correct that you were informed that you were informed that a bonus term violation was being overlooked and that your balance would not be reduced. You are also correct that the operator did not at any point suggest that this balance was subject to any bonus terms and conditions.

The above being the case, where the operator is now applying No Deposit Bonus terms, in our opinion this is being done both unjustly and opportunistically as a means of avoiding paying a significant win.

FairGo Casino has been clear that they will not change their position on this issue.

Unfortunately there's no further action we can suggest you take in this case, but we will be moving FairGo and all associated operators to Blacklisted status due to this case.

Sorry we could not be of more help!

Hi pogg

That's ok thank you for trying. Is there any other big review sites like this I can tell about my case. It won't change what happened but it will still let others know to stay away from this site

Hi pogg

Also would it be wise to ask my bank to take back all the money that has been deposited into fair go

Hi hammington,

You could try posting at AskGamblers, CasinoMeister and LCB.

As to charging back your deposits - this is something you have to consider for yourself. You are unlikely to receive any further funds from this win, but if you charge back this could have negative implications when you play at other casinos. With operators accepting play in your market it's hard to say which other properties they are also running. If you've charged back at an associated casino, you will not be paid. So bear this in mind.

Thanks,

ThePOGG
