lol I'm always unlucky in bonuses, I've received 20 free spin bonuses several times, and as usual the task is very easy, just deposit at least 20 euros, the free spins are instantly entered, but I never get more than 0.5 LOL, for some reason I can't pass up free money LOL
Maybe you don't just like free things naturally, which should be the reason each time you are awarded a free bet you end up not winning anything out of it, lol,
You being unlucky with bonuses is how sometimes I find it difficult to win off a bonus, but I have been lucky enough to hit a small amount of a bonus before, which took me a lot of time playing and going for a break in that casino before I could burn out my balance. My luck came through for me.
I don't think it's a matter of gamblers not wanting free spins, but rather, they're likely playing carelessly and too recklessly. This is what actually causes them to miss out on free spins. I think the gambler's job is simply to analyze carefully and bet cautiously according to their abilities. For the results, gamblers cannot guess perfectly, they can only estimate that with this technique there is a possibility that the results will be correct or come out.
Warning: BetPanda Refuses to Refund 5000 and Appears to Ignore EU Law
BetPanda currently refuses to refund 5000 and, based on my analysis, does not comply with relevant EU and international laws. Their communications suggest they believe they can operate with impunity, while actively targeting EU consumers through a Dutch-language website and accepting deposits from EU countries.
⸻
1. Context and Communication
I deposited funds and participated in online gambling on BetPanda.
On 17 September 2025, I sent a formal legal notice referencing applicable EU regulations (AMLD4/AMLD5, GDPR, Unfair Commercial Practices Directive) and internationally recognized standards (UNTOC, FATF, UDHR, OECD Guidelines).
BetPanda responded by stating they have no EU presence, operate solely under Costa Rican law, and that their Terms & Conditions do not obligate them to refund deposits.
I followed up to clarify that actively targeting EU consumers (Dutch website, acceptance of EU deposits, marketing aimed at EU residents) makes EU law applicable regardless of their registration jurisdiction.

2. Legal Concerns
1. EU Regulations
AMLD4/AMLD5: Online gambling platforms serving EU consumers are required to implement Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures to prevent money laundering and financial crime.
GDPR (Regulation EU 2016/679): EU customers personal data must be properly processed, stored, and protected.
Unfair Commercial Practices Directive (Directive 2005/29/EC): Misleading or unclear communication about licensing, legal status, and consumer rights may constitute unfair commercial practices.
2. International Standards
UNTOC: Platforms should prevent transactions that may contribute to organized financial crime.
FATF: Requires due diligence, reporting suspicious transactions, and preventing illicit financial flows.
UDHR, Article 17: Protects property rights and prohibits arbitrary deprivation, relevant for withholding deposited funds.
OECD Guidelines for Consumer Protection in E-Commerce: Require transparency, fairness, and protection against misleading practices.
3. Invalid Terms and Conditions
Clauses attempting to circumvent EU law or shift full responsibility to the consumer may be considered null and void under EU consumer protection law.
4. Operational Issues
BetPanda offers services to EU consumers without an EU license or official registration, potentially violating national and EU online gambling regulations.
Active marketing, acceptance of deposits in euros, and Dutch-language content indicate intent to serve EU customers.
