Case summary

8 months ago

The player from Canada had asked to withdraw $3,000 (out of $6,199 in winnings) from Getslots, which had been successful, however, she found her account closed when she attempted to withdraw the remainder. The player had stated that she hadn't changed her betting behavior and was surprised by the sudden account closure. After she communicated with the Complaints Team, the casino had requested additional documents for account verification. After the necessary documents were provided, the casino had processed the refund. The player confirmed the receipt of her remaining winnings. Thus, the issue had been resolved successfully.

Hello


My account was closed at Getslots on the 11th January, and they've not answered any of my attempts at contacting them since this date.


I won $6199.20 in total, and requested a $3000 payout (the max per day). I received this, but when I tried to log in to request the next one, my account was already closed.


I've verified myself there and been an active player, so I don't understand the change in behaviour. I have also raised a complaint about their sister site at Octo Casino, as they have done the exact same thing.


I checked and there wasn't any terms saying you couldn't bet at both sites at the same time. I also complied with every verification request that I received along the way.


Given that I'm unable to contact the site directly, I'd like to request your help please in reaching them to resolve the matter.


Many thanks

Dear livinitup,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're encountering with GetSlots.

To gain a better understanding and assist you effectively, could you please provide additional information about your situation?

  • Were there any specific actions, transactions, or events leading up to the closure of your account on January 11th?
  • Have you received any communication from GetSlots regarding the account closure or the status of your funds?
  • Were there any recent changes to your account or any actions taken by you that might have triggered the closure?

If possible, could you forward any relevant communication with GetSlots to petronela.k@casino.guru for further review?

Your cooperation in providing these details will help us investigate and work towards a resolution.

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

Best regards,

Petronela

Hello


There wasn't really any change in behavior on my side. They were sending me a lot of deposit bonuses on the run up, more than I could actually deposit for. I was also depositing outside of those bonuses with my own money, some of those won and some of them lost.


My accounts at four separate casinos were all closed in the exact same instant, so my presumption is that it was something to do with that. There is no correspondence to forward to you as the email just says 'your account is closed' and offers no explanation. No logged out live chat seems to be available, and they have not responded to me via email since the closure.


Octo Casino is exactly the same and you'll note I have complaint open with them as I'm in the same situation. There is no term that says you can't play at more of their casinos than one.

Hi livinitup,

  • Which games you’ve been playing (live casino games, slots, or sports betting)?
  • Were your recent winnings accumulated with or without an active bonus, please?

Thank you.

Hello


I was betting with my own money on table games, and then my deposited money linked to bonuses was wagered on slots, all of which were eligible per the terms and conditions, and always below the maximum allowed bet.


Thanks

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Hello


Just to update the complaint, they contacted me on Sunday with the following;


Greetings,


In order to verify your account and get the cashout approved, kindly upload the following documents to your Casino profile:

- the bank statement - should have your full name, address, bank account number and date of issuance visible (must be issued in the last 90 days). Also it should have bank name, full bank address, IBAN, BIC (SWIFT).

It can be a photo of a paper document, a PDF, or a photo of both sides of your credit/debit card with your name and bank account number visible.


Best regards,

GetSlots Payments Team 



I've responded to them letting them know that the document they've asked for isn't possible. Banks in Canada do not have an IBAN so I'm surprised they even asked for this, unless it was a copy and pasted stock message.


I've corrected them and given them a void cheque, a bank statement, and confirmed that both methods that I used to deposit (e-transfer and Mifinity) are both valid, so I'm not sure why they've asked for this specifically.


I've not heard back since that message above, three days ago.

Hi Getslots, thanks for replying here


The email that I was sent contained the same request for an IBAN so I had replied to that asking for a payment to Mifinity or e-transfer instead. I'll reply again just now with all the details you've asked for.


Thanks
