SlotNeo Casino - Pelaajan tili on suljettu ilman selkeää syytä.

Complaint – account closed 36000$ under vague AML suspicion, lack of transparency, unfair settlement and withheld funds

I am submitting a complaint regarding Slotneo and the handling of my account closure, withdrawals, and AML review process.

I deposited a total of approximately $27,000 USD into my account over a short period of time. During the withdrawal phase, I processed three withdrawals (2 x $1,000 USD and 1 x $500 USD), which were subject to significant delays and pending periods before being eventually processed.

After a prolonged KYC/AML review and repeated withdrawal delays, my account was ultimately closed under a general "suspicious activity" AML justification. No specific evidence, no detailed explanation, and no reference to any concrete Terms & Conditions breach has been provided.

Throughout the process, my account remained under extended verification and withdrawal delays without clear communication or structured timelines. At no point was I provided with a proper Source of Funds request or a clear list of required AML documentation.

Instead of a transparent compliance procedure, I was later offered only a partial refund of my last deposit (minus withdrawals), which I consider an inadequate and unsubstantiated resolution given the total amount deposited and the lack of explanation provided.

I remain fully willing to cooperate with any legitimate AML or Source of Funds verification process and to provide all required documentation. However, I require a clear and structured explanation of the reasons behind this decision and the specific documents needed for proper compliance.

I am requesting a fair and independent review of the operator’s actions and the decision to restrict access to my funds.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with SlotNeo Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

• Could you please advise how long you were a player at the casino and when exactly your account was blocked?
• How did you learn about your account being blocked?
• What games did you play to accumulate your current balance in the casino? (slots, live games, betting on sports)
• Did you achieve your current balance with the help of a bonus?
• Could you please list which documents the casino requested from you during the verification process?

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Hello,

Thank you for your response and for taking my case into consideration.

Please find my answers below:

How long I was a player & when account was blocked:

I created my account on May 1st, 2026. My account was blocked on May 12th, 2026.

How I found out about the block:

I discovered that my account was blocked when I attempted to access it / proceed with my withdrawal and was unable to do so. There was no prior warning.

Games played:

I played a combination of slot games and sports betting.

Balance origin (bonus or not):

I did NOT use any bonus or promotion at any time. All gameplay was done exclusively with my own deposited funds.

Deposits:

I deposited approximately $27,000 in a single day.

Documents requested by the casino:

I uploaded my KYC documents immediately after creating the account (proof of identity, etc.). However, these documents remained in "pending" status until May 12th, when my account was suddenly blocked.

I would like to emphasize that:

I fully complied with the verification process from the very beginning.

I did not delay or avoid any checks

My funds are legitimate and can be fully justified.

What concerns me most is that:

My account was allowed to accept a very large deposit immediately.

My documents were not reviewed for over 10 days.

The account was then blocked without prior notice.

I remain fully willing to cooperate and provide any additional documents required, including source of funds.

However, the current situation feels unfair, especially considering that I acted in good faith at all times.

I would appreciate your help in facilitating a fair and timely resolution.

Thank you again for your support.

Best regards,

Ionut *****

Hello Tomas.Could you please check my email?Thank you

Thanks for your patience and the detailed information provided.

• Do I understand correctly that you registered using your Romanian address despite working abroad?
• Do I understand correctly that the crypto app you used for deposits requires you to pass KYC?

Please let me know.

Yes, that is also correct. The cryptocurrency platform I used for deposits requires all users to complete KYC verification procedures before being allowed to use its services. All deposits made to SlotNEO Casino were completed on the same day and originated directly from my personally owned and verified MEXC exchange account.I did not use any non-custodial wallets such as MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or any other private cryptocurrency wallet at any stage of the transaction process.The funds were transferred directly from my MEXC account to the deposit addresses provided by SlotNEO Casino.The MEXC account used for these transactions is registered in my name and is subject to the exchange's Know Your Customer (KYC) verification requirements.

Should you require any additional documentation or clarification, I will be happy to provide it.

Hello Jana,

I would like to inform you of an important development in my complaint.

Today, for the first time since my account was closed, I was able to log into my SlotNeo account again.

However, I noticed that my balance has been changed to 6,259.27 USDT, which is essentially the same amount as the settlement offer previously made by the casino. I have never accepted that settlement offer.

The account now allows me to withdraw this amount.

I also checked both my transaction history and my game history. I could not find any visible balance adjustment, confiscation, or transaction explaining why my previous balance was reduced to 6,259.27 USDT.

I have attached screenshots showing:

the current available balance,

the withdrawal page,

the transaction history.

Could you please ask the casino to explain:

When and why my balance was changed?

Why is there no visible transaction or balance adjustment explaining the reduction?

I believe this is an important new development in the case.

Thank you.

Best regards, Ionuț Toader

For the avoidance of doubt, I do not accept this amount as a settlement and I do not consider this unilateral balance change to resolve the dispute

Dear Ionuttoader1987,

I kindly ask you for patience while there´s still undergoing investigation. Thank you for your continued support and assistance.

Dear Ionuttoader1987,

Thank you for your patience while we reviewed the evidence associated with your complaint. After thorough consideration, we regrettably must inform you that we cannot uphold your claim due to a breach of our restricted jurisdiction policy and insufficient verifiable documentation related to our Anti-Money Laundering (AML) policy. We understand how disappointing this may be, and we appreciate your understanding in this matter. If you have any questions or encounter any issues in the future, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

We’ve reopened this complaint at the request of Ionuttoader1987. We would like to allow this case one more chance to be resolved and help both parties involved to reach a satisfactory conclusion.

Hello Jana,

Thank you for reopening my complaint. I sincerely appreciate that you have reconsidered the case and are giving it another opportunity to be reviewed.

I remain fully transparent and willing to cooperate throughout this process. If you require any additional documents, explanations, or evidence, I will provide them promptly. I have nothing to hide and I am prepared to assist in any way necessary to help establish the facts.

I would also like to mention that I requested the reopening of my complaint immediately after it was closed as "Unjustified." At that time, my request was declined, so I believed that all available dispute resolution options through Casino.Guru had been exhausted.

I would also like to inform you that, following the closure of my complaint as "Unjustified," I proceeded to file disputes and complaints with several relevant authorities and organizations, as I believed I had exhausted the available dispute resolution process through Casino.Guru.

Nevertheless, I welcome the decision to reopen the case and I hope we can now reach a fair and objective assessment based on all the available evidence.

Thank you again for your time and for giving this matter another chance.

Kind regards,

Ionut Toader

Dear Ionuttoader1987,

I sincerely appreciate your patience as I reach out to the casino through email. I will keep you updated with any developments. Thank you for your ongoing assistance and support.

Dear Jana,

I want to be completely clear about my position.

Based on everything that has happened so far, I firmly believe that SlotNeo is attempting to retain my funds through conduct that I consider fraudulent. Their actions speak for themselves.

I genuinely do not understand why they continue this course of action when it is obvious that I have no intention of abandoning my case. Even if taking legal action becomes necessary, I am fully prepared to do so. The longer they delay, the greater the damage they cause—not only to their reputation but potentially to themselves financially as well.

Throughout this process I have remained transparent, cooperative, and willing to provide every document requested. I am still available at any time if you need additional explanations, documents, screenshots, blockchain records, financial statements, or any other evidence.

I remain confident that I can address every allegation they have made. In my view, the facts are already sufficiently clear for anyone willing to examine the evidence objectively.

Thank you for your continued assistance. I remain at your disposal for anything that may help clarify this case further.

Kind regards,

Ionut Toader

Hello Ionuttoader1987,

We would like to update you that due to Jana, your designated resolver, being on vacation, we have opted to extend the timeline by an additional 7 days. Since Jana 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 Jana will contact you at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Best regards, Casino Guru
