blackjack table closed right after i raised bet, hand got refunded but bonus timer kept going

Got a weird one here. Was playing blackjack, watching the table like usual, betting small then decided to ramp it up since I thought the shoe was heating up. The second I did, dealer types "table closed," hand gets instantly refunded but the promo bonus countdown timer just kept running down like nothing happened. No bet, no hand, but I’m still losing time on the promo.

Is this normal? I get refunding chips for a dead hand, but shouldn't they pause the bonus timer too, since it’s tied to real play? Makes it feel rigged in a way - like you could be losing value just from bad timing and not even see a hand. Curious if anyone else had this happen or if it's just a fluke. Would you hit up support or just chalk it up?

Maybe not rigged, but Live Dealer timers are cheap.

Curious whether the bonus balance changed too, or was it just the timer that kept moving?

Just the timer on mine. Had a live blackjack table dump me right after I upped a hand, refund came back clean and the bonus clock kept chewing.

Yeah that's the split people miss, the hand refund is game side, bonus timer is promo side. I'd still hit support!!!

I'd hit support. Refunded hand is one thing, bonus timers usually don't care what happened at the table.

Normal for the bonus, not normal if support won't credit it back. I'd message them.
