$10 free from UB for trying to deposit with a US credit card

I tried to make a deposit with a US credit card about a week ago and it was rejected (though they told me it had been "pre-approved" but never actually put any money in my account). I didn't e-mail support about it and just ignored the fact (though I checked to make sure nothing appeared on my credit card statement. Nothing did) and then today got an e-mail that a "no-strings attached" $10 had been credited to my account. I checked and it was in my account. I assume people could knowingly try to make a deposit with a card that won't work just to get the free $10.

Nope, I get a free $10 from UB every once in a while since I don't play there anymore, it has nothing to do with failed deposits.

In the e-mail they said it was because I tried to make a deposit and failed and that I should call or e-mail them to figure out a solution that would work. Maybe they were just going to give me $10 for free anyway but that's what they said in the e-mail.

When I first opened my AP account I had deposit troubles and they give me $10 free, and they gave me another 10 after I withdrew all my money from them after the cheating scandal. UB is owned by the same people, so it looks like they are doing the same thing.

Haven't played at UB or Absolute for long while, AP deposits $10 into my account every 8 weeks or so. I did try a US card about a month ago at UB, got hte same e-mail and 10 bucks as synth.
