bingosky.co.uk Don't risk your money with this site

Options
I signed up for bingo with bingosky.co.uk a few months ago as they were offering a bonus for depositing. I deposited some money and played a few games. Last time I looked I had a positive balance due to some small wins, but not large enough to withdraw (min is £20). I then forgot about it for a few months but I logged in yesterday to spend what I had left in the account. I went to play but was told that I cannot play any more games because more I hadn't deposited anything for more than 45 days! So I have money in there that is rightfully mine, and yet I cannot withdraw and I cannot play through the money to try to get to the payout level. So avoid this one if you are looking for bingo sites would be my advice :mad:
:D

    From the website.
    To maintain an active status on the website a minimum deposit is required at least once every 45 days. The games will not be accessible to players who do not make a deposit every 45 days, regardless if the player account has a balance consisting of either cash, winnings and/or bonuses.

    yep it's there on the site but it doesn't make it right. Imagining opening up a new bank account, depositing some money then going back 46 days later to be told you can't take your money out because you haven't used your account :(
    :D

    It's prefectly right.
    I am afraid you accepted that by clicking I accept or submit during signup,which means you agree to the sites terms and condition put into place.
    I would see if it is possible if the money is withdrawable with a further deposit by asking CS,if not play it through.
    Is this YOUR money or bonus money of any sort whatsoever?
  • yes it would be possible to just deposit more than withdraw, but I'm not prepared to deposit anymore to a site I no longer trust. Fully appreciate that it's in the T&Cs and I accepted those by signing up but that doesn't make it a fair practice.

    The Pacific Poker client does this after a year of the account not being used, they take a monthly charge of %15 of you current funds until they have depleted your balance as a administration cost.

    So if I hade £1000 in my account and someone has £10 I would get charged more in admin charges than someone else.

    Not fair but they are the T&C's
