I have registered at Tipico and after I deposited 100eur I got a bonus. I have placed bets and rolled over 602eur. After I requested withdrawal, this was cancelled and the bonus was debited from my account. I think this is just one of many other bookies which are not behaving very politely to their customers. I have fulfilled the T&C!!!

What country are you from?

There were a lot of users from the UK complaining of the identical thing in this recent thread:
I'd guess you could complain to the LGA, though I doubt it would have much effect. From that thread, it looks like complaints to Tipico directly achieved nothing.

[Iwus1103]

I am from Slovakia. Thatīs far away from UK :-( I donīt understand it. I thinks they just see, they are not able to continue to payout the bonus so they just took it away. I think, itīs theft

[Chopsticks]

This offer is only valid for residents from following countries: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland

Unless your country is mentioned above you are not entitled to a bonus according to tipico.

[Iwus1103]

Yes, but this condition was changed only after I fulfilled the previous terms and conditions. They just gave me the bonus and then took it back. This cannot be made by a reliable bookie. I will avoid them in the future, as they do what they want to do.
The good is the new experience I obtained

[Ganesh]

You are all right, but Tipico is a non serious bookie.

[Iwus1103]

Yes, all the bookies were at the beginning non serious. When something is new you never know, what will happen later. There are always 2 options. It will be the serious bookie or will stay a non serious one.

I am sending my discussion with them. Really not very surprising, I would say, it made me disappointed. So here you are:

Thank you for your understanding.

FROM THAT ONE MESSAGE I SEE, HOW TRICKY ONE SPORTSBOOK CAN BE. YAH!
