Complaint regarding denied winnings after completing wagering – Club Player Casino

I would like to submit a complaint regarding my experience with Club Player Casino.

I registered an account and deposited approximately $17.61 in Litecoin. After depositing, the casino system allowed me to redeem a welcome bonus coupon (CLUB30).

The platform allowed me to:

• Register from Norway

• Deposit funds successfully

• Activate the welcome bonus

• Play normally using the bonus

• Complete the wagering requirements

After completing the wagering requirements, my balance reached approximately $194.80. I then requested a withdrawal.

According to my transaction history, the withdrawal was split into two parts:

• $176.80 – "Manager Withdrawal Approved"

• $18 – "Coindraw Withdrawal Approved"

I received only the $18 payment (which corresponds to my original deposit). The remaining winnings were denied.

When I contacted live support, I was informed that players from Norway are not allowed to withdraw winnings from the welcome bonus because it is restricted to the US and Canada.

My concern is that the system allowed the entire process to occur without any warning or restriction:

• The casino allowed me to create an account from Norway.

• The system allowed the welcome bonus to be activated.

• The platform allowed me to complete wagering requirements.

• No warning or restriction was displayed at any stage.

The restriction was only applied after the wagering requirements were completed and the withdrawal was requested.

Additionally, support later suggested that I could deposit $30 and continue playing, which indicates that players from Norway are still allowed to gamble on the platform.

If Norway is not eligible for the welcome bonus, the bonus should be automatically blocked or restricted before gameplay begins. Allowing the player to deposit, activate the bonus, complete wagering and only then enforcing the restriction places the player in an unfair position.

I believe the casino should either:

Prevent ineligible players from activating restricted bonuses, or

Honor winnings when the system allows the bonus and wagering to be completed.

For these reasons I respectfully request that this case be reviewed and that a fair resolution be considered.

I am attaching screenshots of:

• The withdrawal history

• My chat conversation with support

• The blockchain transaction showing the returned deposit

• The bonus used on the account

Additional concern regarding the withdrawal process:

According to the transaction history on my account, the withdrawal of $176.80 was marked as "Manager Withdrawal Approved".

This indicates that the withdrawal had already passed an internal review stage before it was later denied due to the country restriction related to the bonus.

This raises concerns about inconsistent handling of the withdrawal request, as the approval appears to have occurred before the restriction was enforced.

Thank you for reviewing this complaint.

Dear Kvams,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. We are sorry to hear about the issue with your withdrawal and understand your concern. However, please bear in mind that it’s quite usual for withdrawals to take a couple of days or even weeks to get fully processed. This means that it may take some time before your money appears in your account. This delay may be caused by unfinished KYC verification or a high volume of withdrawal requests.
That’s why we advise players to be patient, cooperate fully with casino, and wait at least 14 days after requesting their withdrawals before submitting a complaint.

If your account has been successfully verified, your game history checked, your withdrawal approved by the casino, and you still haven't received your winnings by 14 days since requesting the withdrawal, we will intervene and do our best to help you.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,
Complaints Resolution Center

Greetings all,

I had a chance to review the situation and the issue at hand is due to this:

Within the terms and conditions of the casino there is this section, "Country Based Restrictions" with a link. When you click this link it reviews the source of your IP address then tells you what you are eligible for within the casino.

You can see that the IP I am using currently does not allow any transactions with the casino whatsoever. Please note that normally (in all other cases to my knowledge except the country in which I am currently sitting) if the country allows no transactions then these countries are blocked at an IP level which simplifies things significantly.

However, some countries allow deposit and/or match bonusing but are not eligible for free welcome chips. If you click this same link from your country of origin Kvams (in this case Norway) it will show you in the same window what is valid from where you are sitting. Norway is eligible to deposit and play, but unfortunately is not eligible for free welcome chips per the terms and conditions of the casino and that is the root of the issue here.

We have tried blocking free bonusing at an IP level as well, but this has proven to be much more troublesome as many folks really like to play them anyway for fun and it causes far greater numbers of player complaints than not doing so. So this link is the compromise.

Try clicking the link in the terms and conditions and it will tell you exactly what you are eligible for!

Best wishes,

Nick and Club Player

Dear Nick,

Thank you for your response and for taking the time to explain the casino’s position in detail. We appreciate your participation in the complaint process.

After reviewing your explanation, the country-based restrictions link, and our Fair Gambling Codex, we understand the casino’s position that players from Norway are not eligible to cash out winnings from free welcome bonuses. We also acknowledge that this information appears in the restriction checker linked from the Terms and Conditions.

That said, Casino Guru also assesses whether such restrictions are enforced in a fair and transparent manner. Our Codex states that fair casinos should enforce restricted bonuses by "only giving bonuses to eligible players," and further explains that "all rules should be technologically enforced by the casinos to stop players getting into trouble by accident." It also states that "the entire system should be set up in a way that doesn't allow players to break the T&Cs unknowingly."

In this case, the player was allowed to register, deposit, activate the bonus, complete the wagering requirements, and proceed to the withdrawal stage. From our perspective, this is the core issue. Even if the restriction existed in the terms, it was not enforced upfront in a way that prevented the player from unknowingly proceeding with a bonus whose winnings would later be denied.

Because of that, we do not currently view this outcome as being in line with the fair gambling principles described in our Codex. While the casino may have support for its position under the written terms, our concern is that the restriction appears to have been applied only after the player had already completed the required steps.

With that in mind, We would therefore appreciate any further response from your side regarding our position, including whether the casino may wish to reconsider the outcome of this case
