Case summary

The player from Italy faced issues with three pending withdrawals from CrownPlay4, which he had requested three weeks prior, totaling 1500 AUD. Despite multiple follow-ups and documentation proving his balance and communication, he received vague responses with no progress on his withdrawal requests. The Complaints Team was unable to assist further as the player did not respond to requests for additional information, which led to the rejection of the complaint. After reopening the case, the player eventually received some of his withdrawals, and the complaint was considered resolved, pending any future issues with payouts.

Dear Casino Guru team,

My name is Alessandro F*****, and I would like to file a formal complaint against the online casino CrownPlay4 regarding three pending withdrawals that remain unpaid despite several follow-ups and the passing of multiple weeks.


The withdrawals in question are:

• May 16, 2025 – 500 AUD

• May 17, 2025 – 500 AUD

• May 18, 2025 – 500 AUD


To date, none of these withdrawals have been processed. I have contacted the casino multiple times via email, but I continue to receive vague and repetitive responses such as "your request is with our finance department", with no real progress or explanation.


I would like to highlight the following:

• Many of my emails go unanswered.

• In a previous case, it took over a month and more than 15 emails before a single withdrawal was finally paid out.

• I have full documentation proving my balance, the withdrawal requests, and all communication with their support team.


I believe CrownPlay4 is acting in a dishonest and non-transparent manner. I kindly request your assistance in recovering the funds owed to me and in holding this operator accountable for its behavior.


I am fully available to provide all necessary proof.


Best regards,

Alessandro F*****

Dear Casino Guru Team,


I apologize for not having responded to your latest communications earlier: unfortunately I have not had access to my email in the last month.


I have now finally regained access and am at your complete disposal to provide you with all the additional information you need to proceed with the management of my complaint.


I was not asked for KYC verification and no documents were requested from me by the casino


I accumulated the winnings without bonuses


I played blackjack


I used the bank transfer as a payment method to my account which is associated with the same card to make the payments


It must have been 50 days and then I had no more updates


And anyway my account has been verified and everything is in order also because I have already received withdrawal transfers from them in the past (always pushing a lot and also very late)

Dear casino representative,

Thank you very much for getting in touch with us and assisting the player.


Dear player,

Can you please specify which documents you have submitted to the casino for verification so far?

Have any of your documents been checked and verified?

When was the last time you submitted a personal document to the casino for verification?

Good morning

I sent a photo of my ID card

and the credit card I used to make the payment

My ID card was only verified and not the payment method even though I sent all the necessary requested information.

The last time I sent the photo of the ID was 2 days ago but the casino simply does not accept the ID verification without giving any explanation and this honestly seems like an excuse to postpone the payment that must be made to me also because I have been waiting for more than 2 months for my withdrawal to be paid and the last time they credited the withdrawal to my account they did not ask me for any verification so it seems like an excuse to not pay

Hi Veronika, if you want, I can send you the documents anyway, but they just accepted the ones I sent after almost a week of reminders. Now they've asked me for more documents, which I hope they'll accept within the next 24 hours. I understand that they can do all the checks they want, but I'm cooperative and willing to send all the requested documentation. However, I've been waiting for the bank transfer to be sent for more than 2 months, and if I hadn't opened a complaint on Casino Guru, I wouldn't have been sent any checks to do, and they wouldn't have sent me any money. I find this extremely unfair behavior on the part of CrownPlay Casino.

Furthermore, the withdrawal requests I made 2 months ago were cancelled and now I will have to make new ones.

I just ask that the new documents I sent be accepted and that my money be credited to my bank account.

Good morning

Absolutely not, I am a resident of Australia as proven but for the moment I am on holiday in my country in Italy and will soon return home to Australia so I think it will show an Italian IP address.

However, I sent all the required documents via email to Crown Play support because there is no option to upload the visa to confirm Australian residency.

Good morning, I received the last withdrawal but I requested another one on 7/31 and it hasn't arrived yet, which is not unusual given that it's been 3 months since I've yet to receive the winnings. However, in their regulations it is written that they pay from 3 to 5 working days and I requested the withdrawal on 7/31 so it is already late.

Thank you for your response. I am glad to hear that you received the last withdrawal from this casino.

Regarding your current pending withdrawal request, please note that usually, we recommend players wait up to 14 days for their withdrawal requests to be processed and paid out. This is because many casinos have internal processing times that can take several business days, especially if additional verification checks are required or if the withdrawal falls over weekends or public holidays. Payment providers may also need extra time to complete the transaction once it has been approved by the casino. If you do not receive your winnings by 14 August, kindly let me know and we will continue with the investigation.

Good morning Veronika, thank you so much for reopening the case.

I haven't received any withdrawals for about 4 weeks because they cancelled all my withdrawals for 2 weeks. Now I've been waiting for the money to arrive in my account for about 2 weeks (2 withdrawals of $750 each).

Are you experiencing difficulties with submitting a new withdrawal request?

Have you made sure to finish all the necessary wagering requirements before attempting to withdraw your balance?

What is the remaining balance in your account?

Are there any pending withdrawal requests in your account?

There are withdrawal requests now, but they're still coming in. My question to Crown Play is why, in the photo I posted here, when I tried to withdraw, it said the amount had to be wagered before being withdrawn (this screenshot is from a month ago, when I reopened the case).

Thank you for your response. Since the balance in your account remains high and the casino has been paying you out regularly, may we consider your complaint resolved and close it? If the casino stops processing your payouts at any point, you will be able to request to have the complaint reopened.
