On opening an account on your first deposit your given a
cash bonus of up to £100 to which you have to play through 35 x ,
so you need to turn over £3500 - quite a bit of playing you'd say.
if buy chance you play through the bonus instead of losing your initial
stake & bonus & then decide to withdraw your winning you'd think you
would do so with no problem? ohhhhh no....in the terms & condition
Maximum Staking When in a Bonus
In the interests of fair gaming, unless otherwise agreed before the Player begins to wager, there is a limit on the maximum bet size Players can place while meeting the wagering requirement of any bonus. This limit is £10.00.
When a bonus is active in a player’s account, stakes must not exceed £10 on any game or all winnings from any play involving use of the bonus will be void.
This £10 limit includes using the double up feature and big bet feature (or any similar feature where a bet exceeds £10) and applies to all bonuses types including, but not limited to, deposit bonuses plus winnings from free spins and golden chips.
One of many disgruntled punter.
I recently joined bgo.com was playing the live roulette like I usually do. I had made 2 deposits to start with 1st £100 and the 2nd £200 to which I declined the 100% deposit bonus, i didn't do any good with this so I decided to make a 3rd deposit of £300. now when I made this deposit they said again to match the deposit with a 100% bonus which I took, I started playing the game and getting a few nice wins which was good then checked the status of how much I had to stake to cancel out the bonus, this was x35 the amount of the bonus (£10500) which is tough at the best of times but thought I would give it a go.
Started getting some very nice wins and the bonus target amount started to come downwards the more I played, this was then reached towards the end of my playing to which the status even said redeemed.
I ended up with £12160 left after some great numbers came in and the bonus target had finished, this in itself was a amazing amount and with completing all the bonus targets made me very happy expecting to be able to withdraw that amount.
This is where it now goes shocking, I made the withdraw for the full amount which it was processing only to find out the next day that it had been cancelled and that they had put the original £300 back into my account, I since have made enquires to why this was rejected (as far as I am aware I met all the criteria within the terms for the bonus) so now I'm waiting for answers.
Apparently there is a get out of jail free card for then, because my stake was over £10 they can void the winnings.
I would definitely not recommend them to anyone and cant wait to shut this account down.
There disgraceful and should make the 2 points of a accepting a bonus very clear, the part on what criteria you have to meet on the wagering side and the second on the maximum stake allowed.
I'm sure I'm not the first to be caught with this but if you can spread the word and get people to use other sites then the better.
So you could deposit £1000 then get a £100 bonus added to your account
& you get to choices you either lose the lot or play through the bonus
if your luck enough to then find out you've broke the bonus rules by
staking more than the Maximum £10 allowed?
I guess it is legal but is this one of the dirtiest tricks you've
ever heard of?

Something very similar happened to me on the poker site of 888. I don't want to reveal too much because I employed equally underhand tactics to withdraw my winnings, but the whole set up is a racket worthy of carnival shysters.
never understood the attraction to online casino's, sooner go to a real one for a meal, drink and make a night of it.
Someone really should crowdfund legal action against the gambling commission for their utter failure to enforce their statutory objective of fairness in gambling.
Well in Poker shirley the Winnings could be lost to lets say a Known Associate ?
Poker sites aware of that casemoney and check for soft playing when it happens.
All these online gaming sites (Betfair excluded of course)..look like "mug punting" personally I wouldn't touch 'em with a barge pole.
Anyone playing online casinos/slots should really be asking themselves why?
I think it's the addictiveness that plays the biggest part, because if you really think about it it's impossible to know exactly how the programming of games and events is really done. I certainly wouldn't trust them.
The Gambling commission is clueless and exists merely to pay its own wages.

I'm coming across so many instances where these con artist BGO are ripping punters
off with this £10 Max bet when a bonus is attached to your balance it's unreal!
basically you could start with a £1000 & get the initial £100 bonus & bet as you would be it
10,20,50,100 a hand & blow the lot & that's the end of it, money gone!!
then deposit £500 & get a matched bonus of £500 on the 2nd deposit, so your playing away chasing a bit,
50's 100's etc & your doing really well, you've turned this 1000 into 3000!
Happy days
NO this is the point where BGO inform punters they've
broke the terms & conditions when a bonus is attached, where you cannot bet more
than £10 Max when a bonus is in-play
Quite f in unbelievable, so they'll take your money quite happily when you lose
& break the £10 Max rule unbeknown to the punter, but if by chance you win they'll take the winnings
away, the bonus away & just return the deposit to your bank account!!
If you google BGO casino £10 max stake scam on bonus you'll come across plenty
of very unhappy punters that feel they've been cheated & treated very unfairly.

I can see the appeal of getting bonuses with sports betting cos you can mix it up with Betfair to secure a profit.
BUT... With casino type gambling you can't do this.
Sometimes I get bored and go on fruit machines which I know is a mugs game, but still get sucked in! There's been times I've accepted a £10 bonus and won several hundred quid, but I've not been able to withdraw it and ended up losing it!

why on earth you would want to give your debit or credit card details to these guys is beyond me.
Do people not think it's unfair for them to take say a 1000 off you when you
was breaking the £10 Max rule but when you win say a 1000 & try to withdraw
they quote the £10 Max bet rule & take away your winnings, the bonus & just
return your original deposit to your bank account?
in all my years of using on-line betting i think this is the worse id call
it a scam i've ever come across.
no wonder verns saying come & beat the boss the robbing ****s
