Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: €1,597

Starzino Casino
Safety Index 3.5 Low

Case summary

The player from the Netherlands faced difficulties retrieving his €1,600 withdrawal, which had been returned to Starzino by his crypto exchange due to the Travel Rule. Despite providing evidence of the return, the casino delayed and gave inconsistent responses, not crediting the funds back to his account. The complaint was resolved by confirming that the delay was caused by a payment provider's review, not the casino, and the partial amount credited reflected cryptocurrency value fluctuations over the two-month period. The casino's position was accepted, and the case was closed accordingly.

My €1,600 withdrawal was returned to Starzino (after I confirmed if it was possible with starzino) by my crypto exchange (Coinmerce) due to the Travel Rule. Coinmerce confirmed the return with TXID and written proof. I provided all evidence to the casino, but Starzino refuses to credit the funds back to my account. They keep delaying, giving inconsistent answers, and will not disclose their payment provider. The money clearly returned to them, but they have held it for weeks. I request mediation so Starzino returns my €1,600.

Good afternoon Tomas,


My account is still accessible and I don't think I needed to verify my account on the website. I have forwarded the mail and chat conversations I had

Hello Rvb_033,

We would like to update you that due to Stefan, your designated resolver, being on vacation, we have opted to extend the timeline by an additional 7 days. Since Stefan has an in-depth understanding of your situation and maintains direct communication with the casino, we find this extension justified. Your patience is sincerely appreciated, and I assure you that Stefan will contact you at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Hello,


Thank you for the opportunity to clarify this case.


We want to emphasize that we do not manually adjust or return funds to a player’s balance, nor do we intentionally reduce any amounts. All such operations are processed automatically by the system in accordance with the applicable exchange rates at the time of the transaction.


In this particular case, the player’s account is held in EUR, while the withdrawal was made in cryptocurrency (XRP). On the specified date, the player withdrew 998.620631 XRP. Based on the cryptocurrency exchange rate as of January 25, 2026, where 1 XRP was approximately 1.60–1.65 EUR, the equivalent value at the time of withdrawal was around 1,600 EUR.


Subsequently, the funds were successfully returned to the player’s balance on March 17, 2026, in the amount of 998.620631 XRP, calculated according to the актуальный exchange rate at the time of the return.


All transactions were processed correctly and in line with system calculations and exchange rate fluctuations.

Dear Starzino Casino,

Thank you for your response and explanation.


Dear Rvb_033,

I understand that this situation must be frustrating for you. However, after reviewing the case, we have to agree with the casino’s position. The delay was caused by a review conducted by the payment provider, and therefore it cannot be attributed to the casino.

Additionally, please note that cryptocurrency values are subject to fluctuation, and over a period of two months, the value of your withdrawal could have significantly decreased or increased.

We'll go ahead and mark the complaint as 'resolved' in our system. We appreciate your cooperation and confirmation. If you ever encounter any issues with this or any other casino in the future, please feel free to reach out to our Complaint Resolution Center. We're here to help.

As you know, we do not charge for our services, nor do we accept any gratuities. However, we would greatly appreciate it if you could take a moment to share your experience with our services on Trustpilot https://www.trustpilot.com/evaluate/casino.guru. An honest review, along with any suggestions for improvement, would be invaluable. Your feedback could help others who may be considering contacting us for assistance with online casino-related issues.

Thank you in advance for your time.

Best regards,

Stefan
