Case summary

The player from Australia was facing issues with withdrawing her winnings of 5000 after inconsistent claims from the casino that her betting was suspicious. Despite following the casino's instructions and confirming that her account activity was normal, she continued to be refused her payout. She said she had deposited 30, played without a bonus, and built her balance up to 5k after the casino confiscated the winnings and later changed the transaction wording while her betting history was erased. We tried repeatedly to contact the casino, but no response was received. As the casino operated without a valid license and did not use any ADR service, the complaint was marked unresolved.

thanks martina, glad someone could help. whackaus actually stated in several messages that they found nothin wrong and no irregularities and said the game provider was the one who determined that there was suspicious activity i asked who the game provider was as i played four different ones and i just got inconsistant contradictory back n forth no answers.. i have noticed today though that the transaction descriptions have changed and my betting history has been erased. ie what once said FORFIETTED $5000 due to suspicious activity as per game rules

now says

FORFIETTED $5000

ive asked numerous times how do they determine suspicious betting as i can only pick an amount and press spin.?? its unfair i believe i won that fair and square

Dear Kristyleenutswa,

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. Since the casino operates without a valid license and doesn't refer to any ADR service, there is no gaming authority to turn to.

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 could 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.

I can only recommend you choose casinos by their reviews and ratings in the future to avoid situations like this. I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.
