Case summary

The player from the United States had won $8,000 at Scrooge Casino but had her redemption request rejected without a clear explanation. After she contacted customer service, she discovered that her account had been permanently closed for an alleged violation of Terms of Service, which was not specified, and she had not received her winnings. The Complaints Team had attempted to resolve the issue by reaching out to the casino for clarification but received no response. Consequently, the complaint was closed as 'unresolved', impacting the casino's rating and allowing other players to view her experience.

After winning $8,000 on Scrooge Casino, I submitted a redemption request on June 1, 2025.


The next day, I received an email stating that my redemption had been rejected and that further communication would follow. However, no follow-up email ever arrived. When I contacted customer service, they told me my account had been permanently closed for violating their Terms of Service — without specifying which rule was allegedly broken.


I was never warned about any issue, and I have still not received any explanation or evidence. The platform has locked me out of my account, withheld my winnings, and refused to provide further communication.


I strongly advise others to steer clear of this site. Scrooge Casino appears to operate under a sweepstakes model, potentially to avoid standard gambling regulations, and they do not seem to honor legitimate redemption requests that are a significant amount.

Dear Scroogedbyscrooge,

Dear Scroogedbyscrooge, 


I am sorry to confirm that since we haven’t received any response from the casino regarding the issue, we cannot continue with the complaint resolution process and are forced to close it as ‘unresolved’.


Usually, in order to reach any kind of agreement, all three parties (player, casino, and mediator) need to communicate closely. Unfortunately, this is not the case and we were left alone in our attempt to solve this issue.


Sadly, I couldn't be of more help, but bear i mind that closing this complaint as unresolved will negatively influence the casino's rating and other players can read about your experience in our review. 


The casino can reopen this complaint anytime.
