The Stakehouse Casino - Player's winnings are being deducted due to an error.

Resolved
Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: €2,900

The Stakehouse Casino
Safety Index 7.6 Above average

Case summary

The player from Norway had experienced issues with a welcome bonus at Stakehouse, where his spins on a qualifying game had not contributed to the required wagering. Despite confirming the error, the casino had deducted his funds. The player had sought assistance in resolving the matter. We had engaged with the casino to request clarification and evidence supporting their partial crediting of the player's winnings. The casino had acknowledged a persistent technical glitch with their bonus engine and promised to compensate the player fully after migrating to a new platform. However, the casino had failed to provide further updates or resolve the issue. Consequently, the complaint had been closed as unresolved due to the casino's lack of cooperation, and the player had been advised to escalate the matter to the casino's licensing authority. The complaint was later reopened as communication continued, and after the player completed the recommended steps and verified his account, he received all winnings owed. The complaint is now marked as resolved.

Hi Casino.guru,

I was playing at stakehouse with their welcome bonus they offered.

I played Cash patrol which is in the list of wagering games to their bonus.

I made well over 1500 spins betting 5€ per spin.

But when i looked it had not wagered anything towards the bonus.

So i contacted support and we have been communication through emails.

They claim that it was an error on their part but now they are deducting my money because of it.

I have sent them print screens and showed them and they agree that it is a mistake on their part but still they are taking my money for it.

It does not make any sense at all.

Can you please help me get some justice thank you

Dear magoman, Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Could you please forward any supporting evidence, such as screenshots or videos, possibly your game history with the exact time of the incident along with any relevant communication to attila.g@casino.guru? Have you stopped playing right after the incident?

Meanwhile, please check our article explaining "How slot machines are programmed" https://casino.guru/how-slot-machines-work-math#how-are-slot-machines-programmed and maybe it’ll help to understand how servers communicate with players and what issues might occur on the way. Please understand that without any supporting evidence, we can’t proceed further with this case as it would be close to impossible to confront the casino.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Best regards,

Attila

Hello magoman,

My name is Michal, and I have taken over handling your complaint. I have reviewed the case and will be reaching out to the casino to gain further clarity on the situation and explore whether I can assist in resolving it.

We would like to invite The Stakehouse Casino to join the conversation.



Dear The Stakehouse Casino,

I kindly request further clarification regarding the rationale for crediting only a partial amount of the player’s winnings. While I acknowledge your communication to the player referencing a technical issue, it is generally expected that where gameplay has occurred in accordance with the applicable terms and permitted game rules—and winnings have been obtained fairly—such winnings should be honored in full.

Additionally, no maximum win or withdrawal limit applicable to this bonus gameplay appears to have been specified in the relevant promotional terms. In the absence of such provisions, the adjustment of the player’s winnings appears to be unjustified.

I would therefore appreciate it if you could provide a more detailed explanation, including any specific terms or evidence that support this decision.

If there are any relevant details or circumstances affecting this situation that cannot be shared publicly, I would appreciate it if you could provide them directly to me at michal.k@casino.guru for independent review.

Thank you in advance.

Dear magoman,

I have received the following response from the casino team:

Hi,

I’m writing to give you a transparent update on the bonus issue you’ve been experiencing. We know it’s been frustrating, and we appreciate your patience while we worked to get to the bottom of it.

What’s Happening:

After a thorough investigation, we identified a persistent bonus engine error within our current platform provider, SG. Despite our team’s best efforts to push for a fix, the provider was unable to resolve the technical glitch on their end.

Because we refuse to let provider limitations get in the way of your experience, we’ve made a big decision: Stakehouse is migrating to a brand-new platform.

Our Promise to You

We haven't forgotten what we promised you. Once the migration to our new home is complete, we will be manually ensuring that every bit of the compensation and bonus credit owed to you is fulfilled.

Moving Forward

This move is all about giving you a more reliable, glitch-free environment. We value your loyalty, and we’re going to make sure the end result is worth the wait.

Thanks for sticking with us while we level up. If you have any questions in the meantime, feel free to hit reply.

Best regards,

Stakehouse Customer Support Team

I do not believe them,

Please keep this complaint open until they paid out my correct amount of money.

I think they are trying to get away from paying.


Thank you casino guru

Dear magoman,

Sadly, I have not received a further response from the casino. Since no advancements have been made despite my multiple attempts to reach out to the casino team, I'm forced to close this case as unresolved at the moment.

I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might steer things in a positive direction. You will be informed as soon as we receive some updates regarding this complaint. I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.

While I acknowledge you mentioned The Stakehouse Casino has launched a new website with new license, I can still see this on https://thestakehouse.io/:

So the appropriate next step to pursue your case further for you would be to submit a complaint to the casino's licensing authority by clicking on the license validator.

Upon doing so, a link containing the license details will appear, and you will find a section labeled "File a Complaint."

You might find our article How to submit a complaint to a regulator | Casino Guru useful.

Please let me know how they respond at michal.k@casino.guru if you decide to pursue this option.

Regrettably, this is where any potential assistance from our end concerning your case concludes.

While we are unable to assist further with this specific case, please do not hesitate to contact us regarding any other casino-related issues in the future, and we will try our best to help where possible.



Kind regards,

Michal
