So BOL has started about two weeks ago a "VIP Road to March Madness" promo where if you bet at least $200 for each four weeks, then you get $250 free play. In addition, each week that you bet at least $200, then you get a mystery prize. First week was 50 free spins, and then this week was $100 risk free bet. The mystery prize is revealed at the beginning of the week (Monday). Prior to Monday, I tore it up and won and decided to do a payout on Sunday.

The next day, the mystery prize is revealed to be the $100 risk free bet. Of course, after I did the payout I lost the remaining balance, so I made a $100 deposit and made a bet which lost. Now it's two days past and I still didn't receive the risk free bet so went online chat for the status of it. CS is telling me that because of the payout, there's the 8 day hold. I knew about the 8 days hold for reload deposit bonus, but on any prizes, even if it's not related to the deposit? That's ridiculous. And then I asked CS, so after 4 weeks and I do a payout, then I won't get the $250 at the end, in which she replied in the affirmative. Wow, simply wow. This is what it means to be VIP... lol

Here's the convo:

06 21:58:41 | You: I received email that my next qualifying bet would be $100 Risk Free Bet. I lost a live wager on 3/4/24 for about $90. I was checking if that qualifies for the risk free bet? And if so, about when would it be placed into my account?
2024-03-06 22:00:29 | Agent: I'm glad to hear, I'm doing excellent, thank you for asking, my apologies, in this case since regular terms and conditions apply the account won't qualify for this promo due to the recent payout on the account.
2024-03-06 22:03:24 | Agent: Are we still connected?
2024-03-06 22:04:31 | You: Yes, I was just reading T&C. I don't think that should apply as it's a 100% risk bet and not a free play based on deposit.
2024-03-06 22:05:21 | You: And so if the regular T&C applies, then if I do a payout at the end of the 4 weeks, then I won't get $250 free bet?
2024-03-06 22:06:24 | Agent: That's correct, since regular terms apply as the terms of this promo specify, the 8 days hold from bonuses because of the payout will be valid as well, my apologies.
2024-03-06 22:06:50 | You: Ok, that's it. thanks
2024-03-06 22:07:57 | System: The agent has ended this chat.

And btw, as far as I can see, there's no rules on prizes if you make a payout. There's only rules on deposit bonus:

Deposit Bonus Qualification​

Players who meet the following requirements qualify for a deposit bonus (player must meet all requirements to qualify):

  1. No existing active free play bonus associated to a previously claimed promo code
  2. No payout in the last 8 days
Keep in mind, that there should also be no existing rollover conditions in your account, that the promo code you’ve chosen to use is available to the residents of the country or jurisdiction registered on your account and that you have been invited to the promotion, or it is available to all customers.

Please also be sure that your account is not opted out of promotions

Well, I was debating on whether to call them and complain as I throughly went over their rules and T&C as there’s nothing mentioning 8 days hold for non-deposit bonus. And then I remembered that on Monday I received $15 fp for their promo on betting college basketball on Saturday where each bet you get $5 fp ($25 max). So I got this $15 fp on Monday which means there is no hold.

Anyway, I decided to go complain again but wanted to call them this time and I needed to get their phone number. Upon logging in, I then noticed $90 fp in my account. Maybe it was a good thing in not getting yesterday as I would’ve bet on Villanova and lost.

:lmao:
