They offer free spins with no deposit required, but after wagering x40, a €90 win was requested for withdrawal.
They rejected the withdrawal, demanded a deposit of €90 and wagering it 5x hahaha.
Avoid this pathetic pseudo casino.
Probably not the most pleasant discovery. Wasn't it ever written in the Terms that this would happen when you finish playing with free spins? In my opinion, 5x wagering is quite enough, so I'm not surprised.
Did you deposit or did you give up on it?
I resigned. No deposit and no strings attached (hooks), according to the pseudo casino Opabet. Deposit €90 and wager it 5 times, let them rot.
It's a shame, but that's definitely something that shouldn't be written in the bonus description if it's not actually the case. I'm not surprised you didn't bother with it.
Hello,
I would like to report a serious issue with Opabet.
I received a 100% deposit bonus offer from the operator via SMS/email encouraging me to deposit and play. After accepting the offer, I completed the wagering requirements exactly as stated.
All my bets were placed on the largest and most liquid sports markets, including matches from the Premier League, Serie A and La Liga, as well as a few bets on the National Basketball Association and one tennis match from the Indian Wells . I did not bet on any obscure leagues or suspicious events.
Despite this, once I requested a withdrawal, Opabet suddenly closed my account and confiscated the majority of my balance, refunding only my deposits. The justification given was "suspicious betting behavior" and alleged use of "unfavorable odds".
This explanation is extremely questionable. These are the most liquid sports markets in the world, where odds are set and managed by professional providers. The odds provider did not impose any limits on my account, which clearly shows that the bets themselves were not considered problematic.
Instead, Opabet unilaterally decided to confiscate the winnings after the bets had already been accepted.
In practice, this creates a freeroll situation for the bookmaker: if the player loses, the bookmaker keeps the deposit, but if the player wins, the winnings are confiscated and only the deposit is returned. This means the player has no realistic chance to win, especially when the bonus offer was actively promoted via SMS/email to encourage deposits.
I have full screenshots and documentation of all bets and the completed wagering.
Anyone with any knowledge of sports betting knows that in the main big leagues and markets like Serie A or Premier League there are no such things as surebets and unfavorable odds. Frankly, this company (opabet) must be run by someone stupid if they gave such an extremely absurd reason, so I will leave here links to my bets during the bonus period which this company considered unfavorable odds - it's really funny.
a screenshot of all my bets during the bonus period, as well as an email informing me about the confiscation of funds and promotional SMS from Opabet, which very clearly show how stupid OPABET's claim about unfavorable odds is, they confiscated over 2000e in winnings from me.
