Janalleman Posted 19 June Share Posted 19 June @LetsGiveItASpin@HampusSolsidan@CGDL@Skylined87 CG's favourite casino is being extremely shady & dodgy at the moment. They are fabricating their own rules and lack some serious transparency. I will just make a topic, because I have not received a response upon my DM (29th May @HampusSolsidan). I had an active (cash reward) bonus of 100€, with 3000€ wager (promo email 24th april). This was completed for 2930/3000€, but I decided to log off and finish it later that day. When I logged in the bonus was gone due to an automatic safety play ban. They just stole that 100€, upon 99% wager completion. Now I can never trust them anymore over a bonus, because apparently they can cancel it at any time. They said I received several messages regarding safe play, but I never received anything. This casino is rated 9/10 here every year, but I don't see it tbh. This was extremely shady. They also have automatic pop-ups every 60 minutes, which block all your gameplay for 30seconds. This means you can be in the middle of a Blackjack hand and u cannot hit/double/stand. Or even worse, imagine what could happen on Live games. They are actively dodging any question by pointing to the KSA (Dutch Gambling Authority). They give no insight in your ban. It could be 30/60/90 days. Notes: Thank you for contacting LeoVegas. I see that your account was recently reviewed by our Safe and Responsible Gaming department. In accordance with the license, we are then required to restrict your participation in promotions for a period of 30, 60 or 90 days. Unfortunately, I can't see how long it is in your case. My apologies for the inconvenience ----- After asking around about your problem, I have an answer! Here's the thing: you received an automated message on April 25 to interact, which was also the same date that the ban started. Unfortunately, we cannot reverse the ban after it has started, it is permanent... This is because of the KSA license. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we can not offer you any more bonuses, nor the bonus you almost got... ----- And so it's an automated system that based on your playing behavior will figure out if you should get a check, if you get this check you will see it in your app and it will tell you to change your playing behavior slightly. After 30 days he will look again and if nothing has changed he will put The Block on it. This is not something we have put in place ourselves, this is a regulation from the KSA, which by the way we are going crazy ourselves. ----- As for the other promotion “up to 50% extra cash (max. €100)” (see attachment), we were able to determine that here too the roundtable conditions were not met at the time the limitation on your promotions became active. You had to wager €3000 in order to receive the reward from this promotion, however, you reached €2782.07, so the promotion was not completed. Once the restriction on your promotions became active the promotions will be removed from your account. After 30 days the promotions were available again: May 29 Promo: The festivities begin on your 'My Offers' page. There you will discover the refreshing surprise guaranteed to brighten up your LeoVegas experience! Leo's Spring Festival treats you to an energetic reward every day. This is how we do it at the King of Casino! May 31 Ban: Gijs (LeoVegas) Jun 1, 2024 01:54 CEST Dear, Thank you for your email to LeoVegas. Unfortunately, your account is currently barred from promotions by the KSA. I can inform you that your account will be reassessed by the KSA and then you might be able to receive a bonus again. However, we have no influence on this. June 7 Promo: More money, more fun! It's very simple: deposit €25 or more and meet the redemption requirement twice for TWO cash rewards! On the day of deposit, claim up to €50 after wagering 10 times on our sublime casino games. Fancy more? Then wager another 10x on the day after the deposit for a second bonus of up to €50! June 9 Ban June 10-17 Promo: Increase your balance by up to €250 thanks to our sumptuous 50% deposit bonus. Then you'll be well equipped for Exclusive Sports blackjack 1, Exclusive Sports blackjack 2 and Exclusive Sports Speed blackjack! June 19 Ban Later today (19th) my promotions are available once again. So they have actively banned me 4 times within a month and accuse the KSA of doing this. They clearly stated as mentioned in the notes: ''After 30 days he will look again and if nothing has changed he will put 'The Block' on it.'' This whole joke cost me atleast 500-1000€ of cancelled promo's that were partially wagered. The chat is actively dodging any questions regarding this issue, so they could just throw another ban in 2 days. I demand transparency and a compensation. Quote Link to comment

TrustworthyC Posted 20 June Share Posted 20 June I have seen and lived through such moments since the new Dutch gambling rules came into play, but not specific to Leovegas. A bunch of times i find settings that are at the very least not optimized, as in playerfriendly. Now, i get it, but theres absolutely need for fine tuning and somewhat more sensible apllications of the current rules. And of course some rules need to go, such as normal autoplay and the mentioned above forced breaks as @Janalleman stated: i only want to emphasize this in case a Leo rep comes in to handle this! It happens in all table games, it cost me some money in Videopoker, and roulette. Didn't wanna start a support call for that but it definitely changed my way of playing. I now have to keep an eye on the timer so i don't get stiffed ^.^ Surely there is a way to implement this so at least you can not get interupted inan active bet/hand/spin etc. Cheers! Personally, Leo was 10x better for me before the Dutch thing, but i don't feel their service has declined or anything. Just less games on offer (loads of favorites) and the annoying autoplay and RG popups.. But again, this is so across the board. Hopefully KSA will soon revise one thing or another!@ @Janalleman one weird question perhaps: how would the KSA have any influence about your bonus-eligibility? That part struck me as odd...

Yeah, the breaks are quite the burden. I completely stopped playing any live games that can potentially end in a nightmare. The timer is not always spot on. So eventually you will either have a round interrupted or cancelled. As far as I know the KSA doesn't have any direct influence on bonus eligibility. There is a certain kind of protection the casino has to offer. Leovegas has developed a tool that 'detects' player behaviour that might be harmful. The KSA probably approved this to execute certain protection. It would be illegal for them to directly share any data of a player account to the KSA at all (there are exceptions; Wwft, WOK etc). Their 'KSA shield' is quite odd. The lack of transparency bothers me most. You're not protecting players by just swinging the banhammer, haha. 23 hours ago, LetsGiveItASpin said: Heya Buddy!

Looking forward to your response. (Once solved, you may remove the topic, as I had no public intentions and you didn't have a chance to solve it by DM.) 1 Quote Link to comment
Rhysttt Posted 20 June Share Posted 20 June I too have had issues with Leo Vegas in general around gaming responsibility and randomly locking my account. They are definitely not the choice of casino anymore. Ridiculous low RTPs compared to other casinos and they don't even release all the new games the moment they came out. The Only thing I like is I can be rest assured that they will payout. Quote Link to comment
TrustworthyC Posted 21 June Share Posted 21 June Just to make sure i don't get misunderstood: Leo happens to be my fav. place currently. I like their bonuses the best, and i always get decent play time there, it's just that it was 10x better before the Dutch shizzle... I do really hope that someone in the right place takes note of those intrusive RG popups, and gets that fixed. Shouldn't be rocket science t.b.h. Also, @LeoVegas_Support and @LeoVegasJ if you guys read this and have some spare time, could you try and pull some strings to see if the Dutch facing client can be updated in the content section? I'm only seeing 3 BTG games, a handful of good Nolimits are M.I.A. and my most important Blueprint game ever is nowhere to be found! (Lightning Strike) /end hijack Quote Link to comment

It used to be a market leader. Progressive, innovative, up-to-date & great tournaments/promotions. I guess you should keep that standard in every country you operate. It was much worse though. They are definitely on the right track. /hijack approved. 1 Quote Link to comment
