Uptown Pokies Casino - Pelaajan voitot mitätöitiin.

I played up town pokies and got the credit up to $500.00 hundred dollars i applied for a payout of $500.00 dollars. While waiting for the payout they decided to tell me i needed to fill another withdrawal form out and send more ID which I did in march. So next they sent me email saying my payout is being processed. My account was nil in credit because they had removed the $500.00 dollars. Then about 3 days later my 5 year old grandson had my phone without me knowing and when I saw that I removed my phone from him only to receive a email stating that I had tried to redeem a bonus and they had cancelled my payout and would credit my account of $40.00 dollars as you are not allowed to play the casino until the payout is approved. I explained i had not redeemed any bonus and explain about my grandson having my phone but they would not pay my $500.00 dollars but credited my account straight away of $40.00 dollars. They stole my money and have refused to pay me. I have never played this casino and redeemed any bonus at all.

Dear Janelle,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I checked the T&Cs and I found the rule the casino mentioned:

"7. Players with one or more pending withdrawals currently in their account are not eligible to receive any bonuses, promotional or otherwise, until such withdrawals are either processed or cancelled. Abuse of this policy, as defined by the casino, may result in cancellation of the player's winnings."

Do I understand correctly that you’ve been successfully refunded your initial deposit? If there is any other relevant communication between you and the casino except the attached screenshots, please, forward it to kristina.s@casino.guru (or alternatively post it here).

Lastly, I would like to mention, that you as a player are the only responsible person for your account (and devices), and you should never allow anyone else to access it, whether it is intentional or not.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Kristina

Dear Janelle,

We are extending the timer by 7 days. Please, be aware that in case you fail to provide the required information in the given time frame, we will reject your complaint.

How can they cancel my payout when they had approved my payout and my account had zero balance. If I had zero balance how on earth was I going to play a bonus game. I knew the rules as I have had a payout before. I have never once played with a bonus and they can see that for there selves . I would like to know how I have forfeit the payout when it had already been removed from my account . That just does not make sense to me. That payout has been stolen from me when by right it was legally mine. Some one needs to be made accountable and it definitely is not me. I would like a explanation if there was no payout in my account then how have I had the payout cancelled when it already had been approved . Which I have the email to prove this. Thank you

Thank you very much Janelle for your reply. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Peter who will be at your assistance. I wish you the best of luck and hope to see your problem being resolved to your satisfaction soon.

Hi Janelle,

I looked at your case and understand the situation. I will contact the casino and see if I can help. I would like to invite Uptown Pokies Casino to the conversation to participate in the resolution of this complaint.

Hello Peter . I know the rules and I've never ever used a bonus the whole time I've played on this casino. They take so long to do a payout and last payout asked me for more ID and I had sent through all my ID in March for that payout. The point I'm trying to make is that when this happened it only took a matter of mins maybe 2 to send me a email stealing my payout from me and yet they take a week to do a payout. I had no money in my account as they had taken as they sent me a email saying they had processed the payout but wanted more ID from to check it was all up to date which is observe considering they only got all my ID in March. So I do not believe I done anything wrong considering the money had already been processed. What they have done is stole what was mine and in return credit my account of $40, dollars Thank you and hopefully this gets resolved. Thank you

I would like to say that there site stares that players with a payout in there account or waiting for process are not allowed to collect bonus . So by that being said 1.there was no money in my account at all . 2 . They had already sent me a email stating my payout had been processed and to send the required ID once again. I would like this bought to uptown pokies attention please . Janelle

Hi Janelle,

Thanks for your replies. The point is, even if you activated a bonus, the casino can cancel your withdrawal but it can't just confiscate your winnings from previous play. You won that money without breaking any rules and you should get paid. Let's see if there's a reply from the casino.

Hi Peter i have received a email from uptownpokies saying they have credit my account at uptownpokies of my $500. Dollars..I have to go through the withdrawal process again. They want to build credibility so this will be a one off they said. I would like to thank you for your support with dealing with my complaint. Thank you so much . Much appreciated. Janelle
