Jackpot City: In-Game Tournament Manipulation, Disputed Payout and Privacy Violations

Hi everyone,


​I am writing to share my detailed experience regarding an in-game tournament held by Jackpot City Casino (Super Group), licensed by the KGC. I have maintained a complete record of technical screenshots, logs, and correspondences to support the points outlined below.


​1. Game Data Manipulation and Admitted Failure


​During the tournament, the casino’s software failed to credit my account with the correct experience points and shifted completion dates. I documented a consistent daily deficit of approximately 1,500 points. While Jackpot City eventually acknowledged a technical failure in their tournament software, they applied a retrospective manual calculation to my account rather than awarding the rightful 1st place prize, altering the final leaderboard standings in an arbitrary manner.


​2. Disputed Standings and Regulator Standby


​The tournament mechanics were bound by a strict daily point cap and a finite number of missions. Having maximized every single available point every day, it is mathematically impossible for other accounts to have legitimately surpassed my score at the final stage without breaking the technical limits of the system.

​Instead of conducting a proper technical audit of these system logs, the licensing body—the Kahnawake Gaming Commission (KGC)—essentially closed the matter by stating that they "trust the operator." It is deeply concerning that a regulatory body responsible for oversight chooses to rely on blind trust rather than verifying the technical data. While that specific phase is now concluded, formal complaints have already been registered with Canadian provincial authorities, and these file numbers are currently on standby, waiting to be put together and submitted to the right authorities.


3. Data Privacy Concerns and Timeline Correlation


​Immediately following the escalation of this dispute to customer support, the phone number and email address registered to my casino account experienced a sudden and severe influx of unsolicited spam, targeted casino advertisements, and harassment calls. I do not have direct evidence to identify the exact source of this data exposure. However, there is a clear timeline correlation: the influx began precisely when the dispute escalated and stopped instantly on the exact day I walked into a Canadian police station to report the harassment. Furthermore, the CRTC (Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission) has officially accepted my complaint regarding this matter and opened a formal file. When raised with Jackpot City support, they did not deny the exposure; instead, they deflected the issue by referencing their Privacy Policy, stating they reserve the right to share player information with third-party entities.


​Conclusion


​The combination of admitted software failures, mathematically impossible leaderboard shifts, and unresolved data privacy issues presents a serious concern. The AGLC (Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis) has already noted that Jackpot City operates in a gray zone here in Alberta. Once I compile all official file numbers, including the CRTC case, and submit them to the proper authorities, the formal process against the casino will resume in full force. I will keep this community updated as these official regulatory procedures are fully set in motion.

Have you managed to get copies of the tournament rules, leaderboard records, and all communication with the casino? If you believe the results were manipulated, having a clear timeline and screenshots will make your case much stronger. I'm also curious whether the casino or regulator has provided any evidence to support their decision, or if they're just giving generic responses.

Hey, I don't know why, but I have a feeling I read this last evening. I don't know if it was a similar case or if I'm just imagining it.

Anyway, if you have any evidence that might help, you can submit a complaint with us, and our team will look into it.

It probably won't help if the casino ignores you or gives you generic responses.

Would you be interested?

If so, here's a link to the complaint form.

I do have screenshots, videos and email all the way from the beginning. I can get any screenshot, but no one asked for it because jackpot city herself admitted their manipulations.

​Hi Jaroslav,

just wanted to add a quick update regarding the complaint I just submitted.

​I have all the evidence fully prepared: 46 PDF files of the communication, plus separate files with screenshots and video proof of the incident.

​The key point here is that Jackpot City does not deny the facts. They completely agree with almost everything that happened, but they are trying to shift the blame entirely onto 'the system and software error'. In fact, they even offered me a partial compensation (for 3rd place), which proves they admitted the glitch. However, when I refused and proved mathematically that I should have been in 1st place, they just shut down the conversation.

​​As for the Kahnawake Gaming Commission (KGC), they unfortunately chose to just side with the operator's statement blindly without checking the visual and factual evidence. Since the regulator basically refused to look into the software manipulation and closed the case, I am taking the matter here to get a proper, unbiased review. Let me know if you need me to forward the files to the team. Thanks!
