                The way it is worded is that your first bet is a free bet. You get site credit only if you lose that bet. If you win the bet you don't get any other bonus. Barstool has the same offer in PA.

                  did you lose that bet so you got the free $1K?

                    You have to lose bet to get the 1k. What’s so complicated ?

                      FANDUEL ??? STAY AWAY They Screwed me out of the $1000 "Risk Free "

                      Be careful....Total Bait and Switch operation....


                      They ADD a small amount of Freeplay/Bonus funds prior to your Cash Deposit...


                      and then claim Those funds were your "First Wager" and donot pay up on the $1000


                      after a losing wager....


                      This is a great angle.......but not working here...




                      I am alerting the Michigan Casino Control Legal Team...



                      Fanduel has a history in PH****G everyone...from NY especially...



                      They wont get away with this for too long or they will lose their license...


                      Also petitioning Paypal for a return of funds and have opened up a dispute..


                      The Legal Team is supposed to call me tomorrow from Paypal......


                      Fanduel is basically a rogue operation......

                          here is what happened......

                          just opened Fanduel account...


                          They put $100 Freeplay/Bonus in account ( Non WIthdrawable..not Real Cash)


                          I then deposit the $1000 via Paypal....


                          Utilize the Bonus Wager $100 and wager the $1000 Real CASH on NFL game


                          Lose..





                          Now they tell me the $100 Bonus money was the "REAL MONEY " first wager.


                          and give me $100 in site credits....


                          The Bonus is never Real Cash..it is a Freeplay and you cannot withdraw until

                          it is rolled over at least 1x


                          Real Cash you can withdraw..


                          They probably pulled this on 500 players so far..


                          Had another player tell me the same angle they used on $250 he deposited


                          had $50 in his account (Freeplay) which he wagered and they didnot give him his $250


                          in site credits after a loser.


                          Offer say s refund after First REAL MONEY WAGER........



                          Have call into Casino Control Commission ..I will let them sort it out.

                              Are you dumb? I mean..I already know the answer to that is yes based on how you behave on this forum but it clearly says your FIRST wager. If you bet the $1,000 CASH as your FIRST wager you wouldn't have an issue. But thats not what you did. Casino board will side with Fanduel, as they should.

                                  This guy is a bigger idiot than I thought. Stick to your crying about Donald Trump threads and quit sportsbetting.

                                        Rule #1 with wagerbacks:
                                        Place a bet for the maximum amount of the wagerback and ONLY that bet. Wait until the bet is graded. Then either request your freeplay or enjoy your winnings.

                                          Things aren't usually very clear to braindead idiots. They need their hand held when doing simple tasks.

                                                    The posters on this forum come off as MIT graduates but....

                                                    are actually very uninformed of sportsbook vernacular...


                                                    Maybe they should do some research before they make comments and look foolish.


                                                    Remember, Many casinos and/or sportsbooks usually do make self serving decisions that are incorrect with

                                                    regard to Bonuses, Freeplays, Rules and regs etc.

                                                    as in this case.

                                                    They usually come up with decisions that favor the book...99%



                                                    Always use a chargecard or Paypal for recourse .....


                                                    Any dispute will be reviewed and dealt with fairly if you have a case with merit.


                                                    I am not referring to frivolous chargebacks but a legitimate dispute.

                                                      IN this case Fanduel comingled a $100 Freeplay bonus with a Cash deposit

                                                      which was the error..

                                                      If you wager Offshore they ALWAYS have your Freeplays sequestered.....in a specific area


                                                      and when u are ready to utilize..you click on "USE FREEPLAY"


                                                      The USA online casino/sportsbooks are greenhorns....just beginners online..


                                                      and there lies the error.

                                                        You continue to prove you are an imbecile.

                                                        Go ahead and file that Paypal dispute. You have no chance of getting that money back....AND you will be banned from ever using their site, and possibly others because you attempted a charrrrgeback.

                                                        You did not interpret the rules correctly. And good luck with getting that 'criminal enterprise' moniker to stick. Let's face it -- you are a broke dik degenerate who can't comprehend the terms of the bonus, then you want to whine when you lose. Now go make a chart about, crybaby.

                                                          I just took a look. It says "first wager", nothing else.
                                                          You shoulda bet 1K FIRST, then bonus.

                                                          The way you're doing it, you may even get flagged by PayPal too.

                                                          The proper and only alternative would've been to Twitter or FB their cs\manager\ceo "politely".

                                                          Scorched earth can burn you too.

                                                              Hopefully he listens to Paypal and his state gambling authority when they tell him he is wrong if he won't listen to his fellow posters here.
