Tote SCAM

I join Tote spent money to get promotion offer and they decided to close my account and not issue the promotional stuff i should have got, I feel totally scammed they seem to think i need a break from gambling (sent information on gamcare). They then sent £12 to my bank account as a gesture of good will while i spent £280. I do not have a issues with gambling. I feel conned and scammed by Tote so a warning to others this could happen to you!

AVOID TOTE.

    By "spent £280" do you mean that you lost £280 by making losing bets?

    Yes, I have no issues with losing the money its the fact they never gave me the promotional offers instead they sent £12 to me.

    For a new account, making £280 in bets in a short timescale might be unusual.
    Over what period was the £280 bet and lost?
