5.6 Funds, Interest and charges
5.6.1 In respect of our customers located in Great Britain, MoneyGaming is licensed and regulated by the Gambling Commission, whose licensing conditions and codes of practice require us to explain to you what happens to funds which we hold on account for you, and the extent to which those funds are protected in the event of insolvency.
All customer funds (including cleared deposits, winnings or prizes left on deposit, and any crystallised but as-yet unpaid loyalty or other bonuses) are held in bank accounts which are separate from our own accounts. Our bank has acknowledged that the funds in these designated client bank accounts remain the property of our customers, and can only be used for the specific and exclusive purpose of enabling participation in the Games offered on our Website. This means that steps have been taken to protect customer funds but that there is no absolute guarantee that all funds will be repaid in the event of insolvency.
This arrangement conforms to the Gambling Commission’s requirements for the segregation of customer funds at the level: MEDIUM protection. Click here for further information.
5.6.2 Deposits on your Account shall not attract any interest payments. All such deposits will be treated as advanced payment for intended wagering on the Website.
5.6.3 We reserve the right to charge an administration fee (which we may withdraw from the balance in your Account) in respect of deposits or withdrawals which we believe have been made for purposes primarily associated with reasons other than gaming on the Website.
5.6.4 If we suspect you have made deposits and/or withdrawals to and from your Account in order to obtain goods or services from a third party (such as Air Miles), without a commensurate amount of use of the Games, we reserve the right to charge a 5% handling fee (which we may withdraw from the balance in your Account) to cover our administration time and all bank charges associated with the relevant deposits. We also reserve the right to withhold payment for up to twenty-eight (28) days in accordance with section 14 below (Right of Refusal).
5.7 Credit errors
If you notice that any sum has been incorrectly credited to your Account, you must notify us immediately. We shall be entitled to reverse any such credits and/or recover those sums from you if they have been withdrawn. If any sums credited in error have been used by you to place further wagers, we can cancel those subsequent wagers and reverse any winnings.
5.8 Closing your Account
5.8.1 If you want to close your Account at any time, please contact Customer Services who will be happy to help.
5.8.2 We reserve the right to close your Account at our discretion and without having to disclose any reasons. In such circumstances, and subject to your compliance with these Terms and Conditions, we will try to contact you via the contact details that you have provided to give you an opportunity to withdraw any balance remaining in your Account.
6.1 Each Game has its own set of individual rules which you may access by clicking on the Help or Rules tab in each Game. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between these Terms and Conditions and the different sets of rules referred in each Game, then these Terms and Conditions shall prevail.
6.2 Placing a Wager
6.2.1 Any wager placed by you is done solely on the exercise of your own judgment and discretion. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, representation or advice from us (including any of our employees) in deciding to place a wager. You also acknowledge that by playing the Games you may lose money and you accept full responsibility for any such losses. Any such participation in the Games is at your sole discretion and risk.
6.2.2 If there is any disagreement as to the details of a particular wager or any amount staked, then our records shall always prevail.

6.2.4 We reserve the right at all times to set the minimum and maximum stake amounts and these will be updated in the specific Game Rules.
6.2.5 We shall only honour transactions which we have actually received and wagering shall only be treated as “received” at the time that our systems actually receive them.
6.3 Active Game Sessions
6.3.1 Once a single player Game commences, it will continue until:
(a) you win;
(b) you lose;
(c) you resign; or
(d) your connection is terminated for any reason or the internet browser window is closed.
6.3.2 In the event that a multi-stage single player Game is disconnected where there are still active wagers of real currency on the table, the game state will be stored and may be resumed at a later date for a period of ninety (90) days. Funds attached to Games which remain incomplete after ninety (90) days shall be forfeited and will be donated to charity.
6.3.3 Once a multiplayer Game commences it will continue until:
(a) you win;
(b) you lose;
(c) you resign; or
(d) your connection is terminated for any reason in which case you will be deemed to have lost the Game if you cannot reconnect to the Game while it is still in progress (please refer to the terms of our disconnection policy at section 6.4 below).
6.4 Disconnected Sessions
6.4.1 In the event that:
(a) a disconnection occurs; or
(b) you close the game lobby window (which closes all game tables); or
(c) you close the game table window,
your game will be paused and your opponent notified of your disconnection. If you log back in and re-enter the game lobby within two (2) minutes of the disconnection you will be given the opportunity to re-join your game table (the “Disconnect Protection”). In the event that you do not reconnect within the two minute period your opponent will be deemed the winner and your stake or liability will be forfeited.
6.4.2 Our software is designed to detect whether there has been a genuine disconnection. If you try to claim Disconnect Protection by simply getting 'timed out', you will be deemed to have resigned from the game. Disconnect Protection is not to be used for any purpose other than a genuine disconnection. Any intentional disconnections from the game lobby or game table may result in forfeiture of winnings and/or expulsion from the Website.
6.4.3 In the unlikely event that a real money game in progress is cancelled due to technical issues, both players will be automatically refunded their buy-ins, regardless of the players’ standing when the game was halted. We reserve the right to make final decisions on all matters herein at our sole discretion. The activation of any refunds will be communicated to you via email.
6.5 Code of Online Conduct
6.5.1 When chatting to other players online you shall:
(a) use polite and courteous behaviour; and
(b) extend to strangers from different countries and cultures the same level of respect employed during telephone communications or meetings in person.

You may request an arbitration form by contacting IBAS on +44 (0) 207 347 5883 or by visiting their website.
