Caesars Bingo paid for mistake on laying out Bonus Terms
Posted 2011-08-24 by Admin
Caesars Bingo had to pay out players who were able to take advantage of the loophole in the company's deposit scheme.
Las Vegas Caesars' British online bingo site overlooked the very basic withdrawal constraints upon laying out the terms and conditions for its bonus feature for new players. Caesar Bingo grants new players a 200% bonus on initial deposits up to the value of £400. In usual cases, the term of the bonus will include a non withdrawal rule on the bonus funds so that it will be use solely for play. Caesar Bingo's mistake was the omission of this withdrawal restriction which didn't go unnoticed by prudent bingo players allowing them to withdraw monies.
Caesars Bingo turned out to pay tens of thousands of pounds to players in the UK as a result of the incident. Upon media inquiries regarding the mistake, the company replied with the following statement:
"If bingo players are taking advantage of something that is our error they will get to keep the advantage. If there's fraud then there's an issue."
