Case summary

The player from Spain had requested a withdrawal of €666 in Cardano (ADA) but faced repeated delays and ultimately had his withdrawal canceled without explanation. After seeking clarification, the casino blocked his account, accusing him of a breach of terms without specifying the rule, despite his account being verified and his winnings deemed legitimate. The player explained that the winnings had come from casino games, while losses were incurred in sports betting, but the casino claimed non-compliance related to sports betting. We reviewed the case but found that the casino's policies regarding sports betting violations impacted the legitimacy of subsequent casino winnings, and due to a lack of expertise in this area, the complaint was rejected and could not be further pursued.

Dear Naza88,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Could you please confirm whether you currently have access to your account?
  • Could you please advise which games you focused on - slots, live casino, sports betting, etc.?
  • Did you accumulate your winnings with or without an active bonus?

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Attila G.

Hi Atila, thank you so much for taking my case. Here are the answers to your questions:


Account access?: No, I have no access. The casino has completely blocked my account. When I try to log in, I get an error or lock message, so I can't see my gaming or transaction history.

Which games did I focus on?: My winnings of €666 were accumulated exclusively in the Casino section (mainly Roulette/Slots). I want to clarify that I also placed some bets in the Sports section, but I incurred losses there. Therefore, the balance I am claiming is entirely from my Casino winnings.

Active bonus?: I played with real money. There was a bonus previously, but that balance was used up and played independently. At the time I received the €666 winnings and requested the withdrawal, the money was real money and I had already met all the prerequisites. My account was fully verified (KYC completed).


The casino emailed me saying they were confiscating my money for 'non-compliance in Sports', but as I explained, my winnings are from the casino and I only lost money in sports betting. It seems like an excuse not to pay me.


I remain at your disposal for any further information.

Hi Attila,

To be totally honest with you: yes, I did place some bets in the Sports section, but that’s not where the money came from. In fact, I actually lost money on those sports bets. The €666 I’m trying to withdraw was won later in the Casino (playing Slots and Roulette).

Another thing that I think is very important: my initial deposit was €1,000. So, the €666 I’m asking for is actually part of my own deposited money. I’m not even in profit! The casino is basically keeping my own cash and using a few losing sports bets as a cheap excuse to block my withdrawal.

I really hope you can ask them for my betting history. It will show clearly that the balance was built in the Casino section and that they are unfairly confiscating my funds.


Thanks for sticking with me on this.


Just one more thing I wanted to add: Samba Slots has completely stopped responding to my emails now. I’ve reached out several times trying to get a clear explanation, but it’s just total silence on their end.

To me, it’s pretty obvious they don’t have any real proof of "misuse" and they’re just ignoring me hoping I’ll go away. It’s frustrating being ghosted like this, especially since they’re holding onto my own deposited money. I really appreciate you stepping accountable.

Dear Naza88, Thank you for your response. I completely understand your perspective on this matter. However, I would like to provide clarification regarding the situation. Since the sports betting occurred prior to your winnings from the casino games, and given that the casino regards those bets as fraudulent, the subsequent gameplay is not validated according to the casino's policies. Consequently, the funds you utilized in the casino would have been subject to confiscation, even if you had not engaged in play at the casino following the sports betting.

Therefore, although the confiscated winnings originated from the casino section, if your account has been closed due to a violation of sports betting policies, we currently do not have a department equipped to assess the legitimacy of the casino's actions in this context.

Since we lack sufficient expertise in handling such cases, we are regrettably unable to proceed with your complaint.

I genuinely wish I could have been of more assistance.

Thank you for your understanding, and please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns. Meanwhile, I'm forced to reject your complaint at this time.

Best regards,

Attila
