Case summary

6 months ago

The player from Italy had an account with 888 Casino that had been under investigation, which had left him unable to login or use the chat function. He had been seeking information about the situation and had been concerned about his previously withdrawn winnings. Despite having completed account checks and having submitted the requested documents, the player had not received a clear response from the casino. The player had managed to withdraw some winnings before the account was blocked but still had remaining credit. We had advised the player to contact the Excise, Customs and State Monopolies Agency. The complaint had been closed while waiting for a decision from the regulator.

Hello everyone, I'm experiencing an issue with 888. As of yesterday, my account is under investigation and I can no longer log in to my account or access the chat function. I can only send emails, but I haven't received any response since yesterday. I created my account a month ago, so I don't understand the reason behind this. The problem is that I managed to withdraw my winnings immediately, so my question is if the withdrawn money will be retained? This is my first time encountering such an issue, so I'd appreciate any insight anyone can provide.

Dear Manuel20,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Could you please advise if you’ve completed the account verification successfully?
  • Which games you’ve been playing (live casino games, slots, or sports betting)?
  • Were your winnings accumulated with or without an active bonus, please?

If there’s any relevant communication, please forward it to petronela.k@casino.guru

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Petronela

Good morning, thanks for answering me, I had this problem with 888 casino, I'll answer the questions you asked me:

The account had no active bonuses, I completed all the account checks and played at live casinos yesterday they sent me this email which I am now attaching and they don't reply, my concern is that I had already managed to withdraw all the money and I hope it reaches me, because five working days must pass then I can also close the account

Hi Manuel20,

Do I understand correctly that your account was blocked but you managed to withdraw your winnings before it happened? Please let me know when you receive your funds so I can update this complaint accordingly. Thank you in advance.

For now there have been no developments yet they should contact me within two days as I was told by the support chat. I still have some credit to withdraw and since the profile is blocked I cannot. I've been waiting for an email from them for more than 15 days but nothing, always the same automatic response, I also sent some documents they asked for but no one has heard from me yet

Good morning, I wrote the email but I still haven't received any replies. I don't think I'll ever see the money again. Thank you because you gave me more replies than them anyway.

I recommend you contact the Excise, Customs and State Monopolies Agency (https://casino.guru/licensing-authorities/italy-license) and submit a complaint to them. The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players. Please let me know if you need help with submitting the complaint or how they responded if you can do it on your own (peter.c@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

I will close the complaint as "waiting for a decision from the regulator" for now. Please let me know if you need help with submitting the complaint or how they responded if you can do it on your own (peter.c@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Dear Manuel20,
We hope this finds you well. We would like to ask you to provide an update regarding this case, which was previously marked as "Waiting for Regulator" on our website. Your complaint has now been automatically reopened, and we are eager to know if there have been any recent developments or resolutions since our last communication.
If the ADR or the Licensing Authority has resolved things in your favor, please update the thread and send over the official statement to my email. Alternatively, if the ruling favored the casino, your insights are just as crucial.
We understand that some time has passed, but updating your complaint will allow us to take appropriate action, such as issuing black points to the casino in case the ruling is in your favor or warning other players and users about instances where the authority supports the operator.
We truly appreciate your cooperation, and your response would be of great assistance to us.
Thank you in advance for your reply.

Good morning, I haven't had any news yet nor have I seen the money. I tried to log back into the account but the access is blocked. I tried to write to the email but nothing to do. They didn't get in touch. Have a nice day, thanks.

I strongly recommend to file the complaint to the Italian authority (Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli) once again. You can find the form here: https://www.adm.gov.it/portale/documents/20182/542513/Carta_dei_servizi_AAMS_gioco_a_distanza.pdf/ce1c4f54-e17b-42dc-86b0-0f508f35c3e5#page=24

The form should then be submitted to Giochi.reclami.online@aams.it. The regulator will respond within 30 days, investigate the situation, and take any action deemed appropriate.

If you choose not to pursue your complaint this way I'm afraid I won't be able to help you in this matter further and will be forced to reject your complaint.

Thank you for your understanding!

Unfortunately, the player has not responded to our messages and questions. Consequently, we are unable to investigate further and have no choice but to reject this complaint.

The player can reopen this complaint at any time.
