UNRESOLVED

Case summary

9 months ago

The player from Finland had completed the wager on a welcome bonus on Boom Casino, but his account was subsequently banned for alleged 'illegal' activities and his winnings were confiscated. The player, who had played slots and had passed the full KYC verification, had sought clarification on the issue as the casino's support wouldn't specify the violation. Despite our efforts to mediate, the casino had failed to respond. We, therefore, had marked the complaint as 'unresolved' and advised the player to contact the Kahnawake Gaming Commission for further assistance.

Dear jariftw,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with Boom Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to make sure I understand your situation completely.

Could you please advise what types of games you played with the welcome bonus? Was it slots, live casino games, or did you participate in sports betting?

Could you kindly confirm if you passed the full KYC verification?

When was the last time you communicated with customer support and what was it about?

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

Best regards

Veronika

Hi! I played slots, Toki Time. I sent them every document they wanted, when i sent them my bank statement they banned me straight on.

Last time was in 17.10.2023 when i tried to get them to explain the reason behind the ban. All they did was just copy paste the terms, wich i did not break.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly but had no success. I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Kahnawake Gaming Commission (complaints@gamingcommission.ca) 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.

Best regards,

Peter
