Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom had deposited £1000, won £4500, and requested a withdrawal, but his account was closed the same day with no explanation. He had sent his passport multiple times for verification and had only received a partial payment of £225, while the remaining £4250 was still processing with no updates provided. The issue was resolved when the complaint team stepped in, and the casino confirmed that the funds had been successfully processed via Trustly in the amount of £4275 after an extended delay of 40 days. The player marked the complaint as resolved, and the Complaints Team closed the case.

On Saturday 11/10/25 I deposited £1000 and won £4500. The same evening I requested to withdraw this.

At 5am on 12/10/25 I received an email asking me to send a copy of my passport which I did. At 4pm the same day I received an email stating that my account had been closed but with no other information.

I have spent the entire week trying to find out when I will receive my withdrawal but am just being told that the payments team will contact me to confirm. I have had to send my passport another three times as they are saying that they hadn’t received it.

On Friday 17/10/25 I received £225 into my account from them. Nobody could give me any answers about that either. I just keep being told that my withdrawal is still being processed.

It is now Monday 20/10/25 and I still haven’t heard anything or received the £4250 that they owe me.

Casino.Guru will never ask for payments or access to your accounts to complete KYC. If someone claims to be from Casino.Guru and makes such a request, do not share any information.

Dear 8Black,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. We are sorry to hear about the issue with your withdrawal and understand your concern. However, please bear in mind that it’s quite usual for withdrawals to take a couple of days or even weeks to get fully processed. This means that it may take some time before your money appears in your account. This delay may be caused by unfinished KYC verification or a high volume of withdrawal requests. That’s why we advise players to be patient, cooperate fully with casino, and wait at least 14 days after requesting their withdrawals before submitting a complaint. If your account has been successfully verified, your game history checked, your withdrawal approved by the casino, and you still haven't received your winnings by 14 days since requesting the withdrawal, please, let us know and we will intervene and try to help you.

I have scheduled a follow-up for 4 days from now to check on the status of your withdrawal. Please notify us if your withdrawal is processed before then.

Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,

Katarina

Hi,


I have only made one deposit at the casino. This was for £1000 on 11/10/25.

I won £4500 without using any bonus. I always decline them if offered.

The same day I requested a withdrawal of the £4500.

On 12/10/25 I received an email telling me that my account had been closed because I’d had an account with William Hill in the past that had been closed. I don’t remember this but even if I did there is no way that I could reasonably know that these were the same company.

On 17/10/15 I received £225 into my bank account from them. Nobody has told me why.

iI have sent numerous copies of ID, selfies and selfies of me holding my ID but nobody will tell me what is going on.

I have been waiting for twenty days now.

Hello 8Black,

I'm Michal, and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed this case, and I will contact the casino to shed more light on this matter.

We would like to invite 888 Casino to join the conversation.



Dear 888 Casino,

I would be grateful if you could provide clarification regarding the reason for the delays in processing the player's withdrawals. This situation somewhat falls short of the timely and effective processing of withdrawals, which is expected in a reputable, well-rated casino.

Should there be any factors affecting the situation that cannot be disclosed publicly, please feel free to share them with me directly at michal.k@casino.guru

My bank says that this is not the case. I have spoken numerous times to 888 customer service who keep telling that me that it is in a queue to be manually processed. This has been going on for 38 days now and they refuse to speak to the ‘payments’team and let me know exactly what is going on. I have told them that I can provide alternative bank details and card details if it makes it easier but I get no response.

Dear 888 Support Team,

Could you kindly clarify why the payment was once more not processed successfully?

Is there a possibility of providing an alternative payment method, as the current one appears to be facing difficulties?
