Casino Lab - Player’s withdrawal has been delayed and restricted.

Resolved
Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: £7,319

Casino Lab
Safety Index 2.6 Very low

Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom disputed CasinoLab's withholding of £7,319 in outstanding withdrawals, following a change in his account status that reduced his withdrawal limits to £500. He believed this restriction was unfair, especially since he had previously withdrawn larger amounts without issue. We facilitated communication between the player and CasinoLab, who clarified that the VIP level and withdrawal limits were adjusted based on recent account activity and that previous withdrawal cancellations were due to the payment provider. The casino confirmed that pending withdrawals were being processed, and the player received at least one payment of £500. The complaint was resolved after the player confirmed receipt of the funds and ongoing processing of remaining withdrawals under the new limits.

I am submitting a formal complaint regarding CasinoLab and the withholding of my funds.


CasinoLab currently owes me £7,319 in outstanding withdrawals. I had previously been able to withdraw larger amounts from my account, however my account status was later changed and my withdrawal limits were suddenly reduced to £500.


Since this happened, CasinoLab have either delayed, restricted, or refused further withdrawals, and I am now unable to access the remaining funds owed to me.


I believe this treatment is unfair and extremely concerning, particularly as the restrictions appeared after I began withdrawing larger amounts from my balance.


I have already successfully withdrawn some money previously, which confirms the winnings and account balance were accepted by CasinoLab at the time. Despite this, the remaining balance continues to be withheld.


I would appreciate your assistance in investigating this matter and helping recover the remaining £7,319 owed to me I would like the full amount withdrawn as soon as possible


I can provide screenshots of:


My current balance


Withdrawal history


Emails and chat conversations with CasinoLab


Thank you for your time and assistance.


Kind regards,


Luke ****

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

Hello Tomas,


Thank you for your reply.


Yes, I still have access to my account.


The issue is that my account level was previously Level 5, but it has now been changed to Level 1 without any proper explanation. Because of this change, my withdrawal limits have been reduced and I am currently unable to withdraw the remaining balance owed to me, which is approximately £7,319.


I was not clearly notified about why the level was changed. I only noticed it when trying to withdraw funds from my account.


The balance was not achieved using any bonus funds. It was built using my own deposited money and winnings from normal gameplay.


The last successful payout I received was before the account level was changed. A £1,500 withdrawal was also cancelled, which added to my concerns about the situation. Since then, withdrawals have either been restricted or not processed properly.


I will send screenshots and copies of my communication with the casino to your email shortly, including the changes to my account level and withdrawal issues.


Thank you for looking into this matter and I appreciate your help.


Best regards,


Luke *****

Thanks for your reply and clarification.

  • When was the last time the casino processed your payout?
  • Were you able to request a new payout since your last post?

Please let me know whether your payouts progress at all.

Hello,

The last payout the casino processed was on the 10th of May.

Before my VIP level was changed from Level 5 to Level 1, the casino had already cancelled two of my withdrawal requests. This makes me feel they already knew they were going to change my account level before they actually did it.

At the moment, I cannot withdraw anything from my account at all, and the payouts are not progressing.

Kind regards,

Luke ***

Thank you for the response.

However, I would like to clarify that from my account history, the withdrawals appeared to be cancelled by the casino side rather than by myself. These cancellations happened around the same time my VIP level changed and withdrawal restrictions were applied.

This is why I raised the complaint, as it became difficult to access my winnings despite previously having different withdrawal conditions.

I will continue attempting withdrawals under the stated limits, but I ask for confirmation that future withdrawal requests will not continue to be cancelled or delayed unnecessarily.

Dear Casino Lab,


Thank you for the clarification. The terms cited explain how the VIP level is determined, but Luke's account shows two withdrawals were cancelled before the level change took effect. Could you confirm what caused those specific cancellations and on whose side they were initiated?


Dear Luke,

Could you please attempt a withdrawal under the current limits and let me know whether it goes through or gets declined?

Dear support

Before I submit another withdrawal request, could you please clarify why the previous withdrawal requests were cancelled and confirm whether those cancellations were initiated by your team or by the system on your side?

My concern is that the withdrawals were cancelled before any VIP level change took effect, so I would appreciate a clear explanation for those specific cancellations.

I would also like to point out that I have not been able to successfully make a withdrawal since 13 May. I have attempted withdrawals every day since then, but have been unable to receive my funds.

Given these circumstances, I would appreciate confirmation that any new withdrawal request submitted under the current limits will be processed without being cancelled or otherwise delayed.

I look forward to your response.

Kind regards,

Luke ****

Dear Lukew801,


We can try to understand your concern. We had already informed related to your last withdrawal attempt, in our previous correspondence on this same complaint thread, on May 27, 2026.


We would like to provide you with more specific details regarding the cancelled withdrawal. Please find the additional information below:


The withdrawals attempted on May 7, 2026, and May 11, 2026, for 1,500 GBP each, were cancelled by the payment provider. Hence, they were returned to your Casino Lab account.


We hope we were able to answer your concern related to the cancelled withdrawals.


Additionally, please be advised that you are permitted to have a maximum of three (3) active withdrawal requests, each separated by a gap of 24 hours. For the fourth request, you will need to wait for one of the previously submitted three withdrawal requests to be processed. 


We look forward to your update.


Kind regards,

Casino Lab

Thank you for your response.

While I appreciate the clarification that the withdrawals on 7 May and 11 May were cancelled by the payment provider and not by me, this still does not explain why my withdrawals continue to remain pending.

It is now June, and I currently have three withdrawal requests pending:

£500 submitted on 1 June 2026

£500 submitted on 2 June 2026

£500 submitted on 3 June 2026

None of these withdrawals have been processed. I currently have £1,500 pending and a remaining balance of £5,819.90 in my account.

I have been attempting to withdraw my funds since 13 May 2026, yet I have still not received any successful payment. The issue is no longer limited to the withdrawals cancelled in May. My current withdrawal requests are simply remaining pending without being processed.

Could you please explain:

Why the June withdrawal requests have not yet been processed.

When the pending withdrawals will be approved and paid.

What timeframe I can expect for the withdrawal of my remaining balance.

I would appreciate a clear explanation, as my funds have been inaccessible for an extended period despite repeated withdrawal attempts.

Thank you for the update.

I can confirm that I have now received the £500 withdrawal in my bank account.

I am currently waiting for the remaining withdrawals to be processed. My withdrawal limit reset in June, so I am hoping the outstanding payments will now continue to be paid in accordance with the casino's withdrawal limits and processing times.

I will keep this complaint open and provide further updates until all funds have been received.

Thank you for your assistance.
