When I joined Betonline the agent assigned to my account offered me a a $1000 freeplay as a joining bonus.

I asked the agent if horse racing action was considered as action
toward the rollover and he assured me it was. He said he had many
customers who only played horses and it was no problem. After
betting well over the rollover amount I used my $1000 Bonus Play
and bet $1000 on a baseball game. I lost the baseball game and
therefore had nothing to show from the freeplay.

I won $20,000 over the course of a couple months and they cut me off
from the race book. I submitted a request for a payout.
I received an email from Betonline the next day telling me that I would have
to forfeit my $1000 if I received a payout now since I had not met my rollover.
I called and told them I had been assured that horse racing action counts
toward the rollover and would like to speak to a supervisor. Charlie
Haynes came on the phone and told me he had been listening to
the tapes of when I had joined. He said that yes I had been told that
horse racing action counts toward the rollover but that this was incorrect
and unfortunately the agent who told me that was no longer with them. He
said I would have to bet $27,000 in the sportsbook to meet my rollover. 9 times
the original amount of $3,000, $2,000 plus the $1,000 freeplay. I told him that if he wanted to cancel my bonus
that was fine. I don't go looking for bonus'. But first of all I lost my freeplay so
I gained nothing from it and if he wanted to say the freeplay was still used, a $1000
freeplay is only worth $500. By even the most generous standards they have stolen
$500 from me. I went thru the freeplay vs cash with Charlie Haynes. If it was $1000
cash and I bet and won I would have $2000. If it was $1000 freeplay and I bet and won
I would have $1000. He said right because its a freeplay. I said so $1000 freeplay can't
be the same as a $1000 cash. Charlie Haynes said it was clear as day that $1000 freeplay
was the same as $1000 cash and I was beating them pretty bad anyway.

They did pay the rest of the money as quickly as they deem adviseable. $5000 a week
so as to not alert my bank.

Just for the Record, a Bonus Play Rollover does not count at the Race Book or in the casino.
So the Clerk was Wrong.

When did this happen ? and if you want me to look into it for you ? PM me your account # and Name

I also changed the Tittle of the Thread, since it was a Mistake on the Clerks part and it seems that a Deal was made. Since you Did Not cover the Rollover.

i sent you a personal message. its my first one so i'm not sure
it was correct. This happened two months ago. I waited til i got
all my money out to raise to big of a stink. As I said before I
don't mind losing a bonus but they have taken more than the
bonus.

its fine that you change the title of the thread. it was a mistake on the clerks part. however
you are charging me extra money for the mistake of your clerk. if the mistake had not been
made i would not have made the freeplay. to take the freeplay away for not covering the
rollover is fine. if it was a bonus of $1000 and you had taken it away i would have no problem.
but it was a freeplay and you are charging me $1000. If I had won I would have broke even.
Since I lost I lose $1000. I am sure you understand the difference between a freeplay and cash.

The clerk represented the company. Doesn't matter if it's their mistake or not.

Sorry betallsports, I had to go out. They charged me $1000. BTW when I first joined the clerk transferred
me to what they called "the agent who would be in charge of my account". He was the one who assured me
he had several players who only played horses and it was no problem for the rollover. When I called and
asked to speak to a supervisor about the discrepancy I got a "supervisor" who doesn't know the difference
between a freeplay and cash. I appreciate your help betallsports but I am not sure what you mean when
you say a deal was made. Betonline told me they were keeping a thousand. That was the deal.

Also, if it was $1000 . what is the part in your first post ?

By even the most generous standards they have stolen
$500 from me.

You Won $20K , how Much did they Pay you in Total ? $19,500 ? or $19,000 ?

$20,000 was just an estimate. They paid me my money less $1000 for the freeplay which I lost less $100 for the western union
fees they covered when I joined because they say I didn't meet the rollover. What do I mean when I say "by even the most generous standards they
have stolen $500 from me"? If you say its ok that they reneg on what their agent said. And you say even though I lost the freeplay bet I made
and have nothing to show for their freeplay bonus. If you say . . . well you had a certain equity because betonline gave me a $1000 freeplay.
The equity was only worth $500. What I mean is that even by the loosest most ridiculous standards of integrity they have still stolen $500 from me.

First of all, I won a case in court like this. Bottom line is, that if an agent from a company represents something to you, like horses count towards the rollover, then they are responsible for what that agent represented. Plain and simple. I know we're dealing with offshore here, but if this was a court of law, they would have to honor what the agent represented.

Thank you Bagiant. It's irritating when Betonline says "unfortunately that employee is no longer working here". As if that changes everything.
