Pinnacle888 Casino
Safety Index:Below average

Case summary

The player from Russia had won over $40,000 after registering at the casino, but faced account closure when he attempted to withdraw. Despite submitting all the requested documents, he only received his initial deposits back, while $28,000 was confiscated. The Complaints Team had attempted to resolve the issue by contacting the casino for clarification on the confiscation but received no response. Due to the casino's lack of cooperation and absence of a valid license, the complaint was marked as "unresolved," with hopes that this might prompt the casino to address the situation.

I registered at this casino a month ago, made deposits, lost them, but at some point I was lucky and won several games, my account became more than 40,000 dollars. But when I wanted to withdraw them, they refused to pay me and asked for documents. I sent all the documents, but my account was closed and they returned only the deposit, writing off 28,000 dollars from my account.

I registered with pinnacle in July 2025. On August 21, I requested a payout and my account was closed. I received a letter that my account was closed based on paragraph 5. Of the documents, they asked for my passport and a selfie, I provided them. I played slots and bet on sports. I received a bonus and fulfilled the conditions for its wagering.

I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly but had no success. I'm afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. Since the casino operates without a valid license and doesn't refer to any ADR service, there is no gaming authority to turn to.

I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints could help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint and you will be notified by email.

I can only recommend you choose casinos by their reviews and ratings in the future to avoid situations like this. I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
