Case summary

The player from Azerbaijan faced issues with his account after a technical error led to the cancellation of his winnings, leaving him with only 14 AZN returned from his deposit. He repeatedly requested proof and clarification regarding the situation, but his demands were ignored, and he was unable to receive satisfactory answers from the casino's operators. The complaint was reviewed by the Complaints Team, who engaged with the casino for a detailed explanation. It was concluded that the winnings were confiscated due to a known slot game server breach affecting the casino, and the incident was publicly documented. The Complaints Team informed the player that the case fell outside their scope for resolution, and no refund of the winnings could be granted.

TIMELINE OF EVENTS (WITH OPERATORS AND TIMES)



21:04 – Cameraman: Fikret

The operator joined the conversation and introduced himself.



---



21:07 – Cameraman: Fikret

He claimed that due to a technical error from the provider (Amatic), incorrect winnings were credited to the account and later deleted.

I was informed that my balance had been restored to 14 AZN.



---



21:07 – My Answer

I asked for game round data and supporting evidence.



---



21:08 – My Statement

I have clearly stated that such claims cannot be accepted without evidence.



---



21:09 – Cameraman: Fikret

He avoided providing any evidence and repeated the same general explanation.



---



21:10 – My Answer

I made it clear that the explanation was not satisfactory.



---



21:11 – My request

I asked to be referred to the competent authority or audit team.



---



21:12 – My Observation

I noticed that different operators give conflicting answers.



---



21:13 – My Statement

I informed them that I would file a complaint with the Curacao licensing authority.



---



21:15 – Cameraman: Fikret

He stated that:



- All players faced the same attitude

Deposits refunded

- The matter is final and will not change.



---



21:15 – My evidentiary statement

I told them that I had the following:



- screen recordings

- screenshots

- proof of winnings

- proof of playing across multiple providers



---



21:16 – My wish

GAME ROUND information was requested, especially for Amatic providers



---



21:17 – Cameraman: Fikret

He claimed that:



- the winnings were "artificial"

- all subsequent earnings (even from other providers) are invalid



---



21:21 – Cameraman: Fikret

Accepted:



"We cannot change this decision"



---



21:25 – Cameraman: Fikret

He repeated this:

21:28 – Cameraman: Fikret

21:29 – Cameraman: Fikret

Confirmed:



"We cannot influence this decision, it will remain as it is"



---



21:32 – Cameraman: Fikret

He repeated the initial statement without providing any new information.



---



21:33 – Critical Point (Misrepresentation regarding compensation)

The operator claimed:



""You have been paid 14 AZN in compensation""



I clarified:



"This is my own deposit, not compensation."



The operator confirmed:



"Yes, because the winnings were artificial."



---



KEY ISSUES IDENTIFIED



1. False "Compensation" Claim

The operator is presenting my own deposit (14 AZN) as compensation, which is also incorrect.



---



2. No evidence was presented

Despite numerous requests, the operator was unable to provide the following:



- game round IDs

- provider records

- technical reports



---



3. Refusal of investigation

The operator has repeatedly stated clearly that:



- the decision will not change

- additional verification is not possible



---



4. Invalid Cancellation of Earnings from Other Providers

Even if there was a problem with Amatic providers, winnings from other providers were also unreasonably canceled.



---



5. Ignoring the evidence presented

I have clearly stated that I have:



- screen recordings

- game proof

- screenshots



But the operator ignored these and did not request or review them.



---



LAST REQUEST



I demand an independent and fair review of the following:



- Full round history of the game

- Provider-side records (Amatic and others)

- Justification for the cancellation of earnings from multiple providers

- Clear explanation supported by verifiable evidence



The current management is not transparent and does not meet fair play standards.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to clarify your situation.

  • Could you please specify what games did you play to accumulate the winnings that the casino confiscated from you?
  • Have you noticed any unusual behaviour while playing these games, for example no losing bets, too high winning bets, too many bonus features?
  • Could you kindly forward me the conversation between you and the casino customer support regarding the bug in Amatic games at veronika.f@casino.guru.

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

Best regards

Veronika

Dear Veronika.Thank you for summarizing the case. However, I would like to emphasize that describing this as a "technical error" is not sufficient without providing clear and verifiable evidence.

I have repeatedly requested proof and a detailed explanation, but none has been provided so far. Simply labeling the issue as a technical problem does not justify the removal of legitimate winnings.

I hope this matter will be reviewed with full transparency and that proper evidence will be presented.
