Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom had won a jackpot but was unable to access his account because it had been suspended for over 72 hours, preventing him from withdrawing his winnings. The account had been temporarily disabled by the casino as part of a standard verification and review process due to the sudden jackpot win. After investigation, it was determined that multiple players had experienced a similar jackpot win simultaneously due to a technical glitch, indicating a system failure. Consequently, the casino voided the winnings in accordance with their terms and conditions, and the complaint was closed as no further assistance could be provided.

Could I please add to this that I was nkt informed of any this. This was I was first sent when I asked what was going on.

Hello William here. Thank you for reaching out to us today regarding your recent Jackpot Drop winnings. I understand that you’re contacting us via live chat as your account is currently closed, and I’ll do my best to clarify the situation for you. 😊


Based on the information available, your Jackpot Drop winnings have already been credited to your 888 account. However, the funds are currently undergoing our standard verification and review process to ensure the accuracy, fairness, and security of the payout.


As part of this review, the account has been temporarily disabled, which is why you’re unable to access it at the moment. This measure is put in place to prevent any transactions or activities while the review is ongoing. Sudden or significant wins, such as jackpot payouts, are required to be checked by both our Safer Gambling team and Gaming team before the funds can be fully released.


At this stage, I’m unable to discuss specific details of the investigation or provide an exact timeframe, as these reviews are handled by the relevant departments. Once the process is completed, the appropriate team will contact you directly via email with an update.


We truly appreciate your patience and understanding while this review is being finalized.

William – 5:31 PM

Dear Koicarp14,

Thank you for your response and for providing additional details about your situation. We regret to inform you that we are unable to assist you in this instance. It has come to our attention that multiple players reported a glitch in the same game simultaneously across various platforms.


We fully understand how frustrating this situation must be, particularly since the winnings were initially credited to your account and everything seemed to be functioning correctly from your perspective during the game. After a thorough review of the information provided, we found that several players experienced a similar situation on the same date when jackpot winnings were credited and subsequently removed due to a technical issue. While we empathize with your concerns, this actually reinforces the conclusion that a larger system failure occurred on that day. Jackpot systems are designed such that a specific jackpot can only be won once at a given level; therefore, if multiple players appear to have won the same or similar jackpot within a short timeframe, it strongly indicates a system failure rather than multiple valid wins. In such instances, casinos rely on data from the game provider, who bears responsibility for the proper functioning of the game and its jackpot mechanics. If the provider confirms that a technical error occurred, the casino is entitled to void any winnings that were the result of this error, in accordance with their terms and conditions:


IF YOU RECEIVE ANY WINNINGS OR BONUSES (OR ANY OTHER SIMILAR BENEFIT) ("BENEFITS") AS A RESULT OF ANY ERROR MADE BY US OR ON OUR BEHALF (WHETHER TECHNICAL OR MANUAL) IN CALCULATING, ALLOCATING OR DISTRIBUTING BENEFITS, WE MAY VOID THE BENEFITS AND, TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED OR BEEN CREDITED WITH A PAYMENT IN RESPECT OF THE SAME, YOU WILL REPAY THAT AMOUNT TO US OR WE MAY DEDUCT IT FROM YOUR ACCOUNT.



We sincerely wish we could be of more assistance in this matter, but given the circumstances, we are unable to proceed further. Consequently, we must close this complaint.


We’re sorry we couldn’t help you resolve this issue, but please don’t hesitate to reach out to us in the future if you encounter any problems with this or any other casino. We’ll be more than happy to do our best to assist you.


Best regards

Attila
