Casino: Sombrero Spins

Amount: 29,000 NOK

Complaint:

I deposited 1000 NOK and won approximately 30,000 NOK through regular gameplay (no bonuses used).

After requesting a withdrawal of 5000 NOK, I only received 1000 NOK, and the remaining balance of 29,000 NOK was removed from my account.

The casino claims this was due to a breach of Terms & Conditions, but:

They have NOT specified which rule I violated

They have NOT provided any evidence

They have NOT given any explanation of how the balance was removed

I have repeatedly asked for:

The exact T&C clause

Supporting evidence

A clear breakdown of the decision

However, the casino has only responded with generic messages stating that the decision is "final".

I believe this is unfair and lacks transparency.

I have attached screenshots of:

My gameplay

Account balance

Transaction history

I request:

A full explanation

Evidence of any alleged violation

Reinstatement of my balance if no violation can be proven

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear benste04,

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. 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 might 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.

There is one more option for how you can try to resolve your issue or speed up the process - I recommend you contact the gaming authority the casino is regulated by Kahnawake and submit a complaint directly to them. You can find more about their complaint resolution process HERE, and general information regarding complaint processes with regulators HERE.

I wish I could be of more help.

I sincerely hope you will not come across a problem like this again.
