Case closed

Safety Index:High

Case summary

The player from Ontario had her account closed by the casino after failing to complete verification for a small balance of $111. The casino claimed that the money was confiscated due to late KYC submission, which she considered unjust behavior. After communicating with the Complaints Team, she successfully submitted her documents and had her account verified. The casino restored her balance, and she requested a withdrawal, which was eventually paid out. She then asked for her account to be permanently closed and her email unsubscribed, which the casino confirmed had been completed. The issue was marked as resolved by the Complaints Team.

I did not verify my account as I forget there was a small balance of $111.


The money was just sitting in my account.


The casino stole my money and claimed "you did not submit kyc documents soon enough. We have decided to take your money and close the account"


As I am sure you can agree, this is totally rogue behavior



I notice this casino has a high trust score of 8.8/10. Why are we allowing casinos such high ratings who just randomly steal players money and claim some bs policy because I didnt verify my account within a small tiny period of 30 days.

Hi. I dont think I submitted documents. The $111 was just sitting in the account. I didnt cash it out. I figured Id play with it at some point. Then they just stole it and said no KYC provided within 30 days.


I dont think they asked me for KYC


Never cashed out. It was the first time playing there.


They Took the money and closed the account.

Update: I did an email search and a month ago they sent me a request to do the KYC.


Because this email was hidden in my junk folder I did not see it.


Furthermore, just because I didnt perform kyc in 30 days does not warrant complete theft of MY MONEY.


This is money from my bank account that I work for and this casino thinks they can just steal it?


This term is completely rogue given emails can get lost, missed, or land in spam folders. This casino should not be allowed to have an 8.8 trust score with a term like this.


Steal money and close account over a missed email? No way.

Thank you very much for your update.

Did you contact the casino after you found the email in your spam folder? Have you requested the casino to give you one more chance with the verification of your account?

Please forward me all the communication between you and the casino customer support regarding the verification process and the account closure at [email protected].

Please don’t worry — even if the original verification deadline has passed, we believe the casino should still allow you to complete the KYC and regain access to your balance, especially since the email landed in your spam folder. We will do our best to assist you in this matter.

Hi there. Sorry I was working double shifts. Im an ER and ICU nurse. But I have a couple days off coming up so I can submit the documents.


Id like to remind the casino that some people save lives and do important work and trying to rip them off because they didnt give you ID in a small tiny window is ridiculous and insulting.


Remember that next time you or a loved one are in need of medical care. Remember that some of us work 16 hour days and get 5 hours of sleep to save your life.

Dear player, I am sure you can find 10 minutes of your time before casino decides to decline your verification once more because it is delayed again.

Hello.


I have been doing 16-20 hour surgeries. I have not had time. I have been sleeping 2-5 hours a night because we are short on staff.


Anyways I tried to verify myself on my break and now it says sorry verification expires after 1 week.


This is ridiculous. What kind of casino just closes your account for not verifying. All i did was play there..leave $110 for another time..and my account closed.


And now I have to run around like crazy chase this casino all over the place and nobody. knows nothing.


Live support says sorry cant help, be patient.


Im asking them to reopen my account so i can verify, they cant. Im asking for another verification link..no answer.


Come on man. Like really come on.

All right, dear SpinLander Casino, is there a way to open the player's account so they can verify when it is suitable for them? I understand that it is not a standard situation, but I do not see a better way to deal with it.

How is it not a standard situation Pavel?


I deposited in a casino. Played a bit. Got really busy and left a balance there for another day. Casino closed my account because I didnt play for 30 days.


Can this casino just act like a normal casino and leave people's balance alone? Its weird to close a players account and try to steal their money because they got busy.

For some reason utility bill rejected. So I provided bank statement and utility bill. Seems to have been accepted.


Please approve account so I can cashout and end this madness.

That's all right, withdrawal can take time, I would suggest waiting 10 more days and see if the withdrawal is cancelled or if money arrives. 14 days is usually a long enough timeframe for the withdrawal to be paid out.

Hi there. I have been paid.


I would like to request Spinlander close my account permanantly and unsub me from all emails.


I will not play in a casino that tried to steal my money because I got busy.


Thanks for getting me paid casinoguru. Really appreciate you stopping casinos stealing from players.
