    Bullshit Bonuses and Promos at YouWager are going to make me leave
    They are saying when you take promo or bonus that they offer that they add it to your initial deposit. I made and completed a rollover during the football season now they are using a march madness promo added to a completed rollover deposit I made during football season. Just fukking bullshit. Always moving the fukking finish line by any means necessary. Just bullshit.

      This one is the worst that I have seen. No need in completing a deposit bonus if they add to it.

            Seems simple enough. You completed a prior bonus rollover and since took another promo/bonus and now they are making you complete another rollover on your entire balance? Is that right? But.."you can still withdraw your winnings at any time" blah, blah

                That's what bonuses are for. Hit the bonus. Complete the rollover and withdraw. Rinse and repeat. Never deposit after taking a bonus.

                  I have never heard of them doing this for any time that I have used them. I have also added money on top of other deposits with bonuses. They also let u take out money if its more than the deposit during the rollover unless its a special promo.
                  So i just don't get it OP u should probably just talk to someone else most of the guys there are pretty cool.

                    Does not make sense at all. Did you make a deposit when you still had money in the account from a previous deposit?

                      Youwager has monthly spin the wheel specials for different special days of the year. Thanksgiving, March madness, super bowl, etc. But they are adding it to the initial deposit I made AND completed DURING the football season. Never heard of such bullshit. Adding to a completed rollover.

                        The online book I play if I have the urge is Intertops. Local is the best way. You won't be stiff and you don't have ever worry about payout fees or depositing foreign checks.

                          Down to 400 more dollars to wager to complete this rollover. Thank goodness. I hope to beat them out of more than I was trying to withdraw the first time.

                                I'm a football, march madness, NBA playoffs gambler. I don't bet a lot of bases. So yes. If this were football season it would have been completed within a few weeks.

                                    seaborn, Is this free-spin bonus that you got based on the balance you had meaning that you roll it all as if it was a deposit? Basically what Im asking is...Is the terms of excepting the free spin money to roll it over with the balance you currently have on hand?

                                    Or, Is it simply that you won the free money and they are saying you can't have it or are miscounting? I'd expect YW has proper TOS on these promos. They have been at this game a long time.

                                    It seems odd and we'd like to know. Unfortunately with just seeing this now, talking to mgt about it wont be as much help but let us know.

                                      Bill, there are calendar promo throughout the year, mostly football and basketball season. Free spins have a rollover, but the rollover is added to the initial deposit that I could have already completed and withdrew from that I satisfied during the football season. I didn't like it, but YW says that is the industry standard. I will play with them again, I just won't waste time spinning the wheel, or taking ANY of their calendar promos. It really just caught me off guard because I had completed the rollover before the regular season(NFL) ended and thought I was free to withdraw all of my money. If there was a rollover for a 75 dollar free spin for example that would be 225 dollars, but not when it added to the initial deposit which is even more.

                                        Gotcha, so essentially it is like a second deposit bonus you get if you hit your spin... Did you have the option to not accept the free $ and therefore no more roll?

                                          exactly!!!!!! Yes I did I think, but the gambler in me wouldn't let it go with them keeping THEIR bonus, so I have sucked it up and will try to win more than I would have gotten in the first withdrawal requests would have yielded. I learned a very valuable lesson, which I needed since I have been doing this since 1999.

                                            Wait so are you saying that if my balance is $100 with no rollover at the time left, and I take their offer to spin the wheel and land on $75 then I have to rollover 3x my $100 balance + 3x the $75??? If so, that is absurd.

                                              Bingo. Imagine if it was over 500 dollars on your initial deposit. Yep. YW Got me by the balls.

                                                    you can always turn down the free spin

                                                    but yeah it doesn't make sense here to have to roll over the deposit again just for the free spin

                                                    I'd like to spin the wheel there as I don't really care about rollovers but they stopped letting me do the promos over a year ago.

You completed a prior bonus rollover and since took another promo/bonus and now they are making you complete another rollover on your entire balance? Is that right? But.."you can still withdraw your winnings at any time" blah, blah
