Case summary

9 months ago

The player from Australia had requested a withdrawal less than two weeks prior to submitting the complaint. Their money had not been received yet. The player's account had been verified, but the casino returned the withdrawal amount to the player's account due to a system migration issue. The maximum withdrawal limit had been temporarily reduced to $1000, causing further confusion. Despite the player's repeated attempts to withdraw the funds, the money remained in the account. The casino had not responded to the player's emails or to the Complaints Team's attempts to mediate. The player's VIP status was also unexpectedly removed. Due to the casino's lack of cooperation and absence of a valid license, the complaint had been marked as 'unresolved'.

My withdrawals were placed in account

$5000


upon trying to withdraw

the amount maximum allowed is now $1000

I do think this is unacceptable behaviour

Dear matonga,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. We are sorry to hear about the issue with your withdrawal and understand your concern. However, please bear in mind that it’s quite usual for withdrawals to take a couple of days or even weeks to get fully processed. This means that it may take some time before your money appears in your account. This delay may be caused by unfinished KYC verification or a high volume of withdrawal requests.
That’s why we advise players to be patient, cooperate fully with casino, and wait at least 14 days after requesting their withdrawals before submitting a complaint.

If your account has been successfully verified, your game history checked, your withdrawal approved by the casino, and you still haven't received your winnings by 14 days since requesting the withdrawal, we will intervene and do our best to help you.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,
Complaints Resolution Center

I apologize for the misunderstanding. The first message was automatically generated based on the answers you provided while submitting this complaint.


Could you please clarify the sentence from your first message?

the amount maximum allowed is now $1000


Did the casino confiscate the rest of your winnings? Or are you able to request a withdrawal with the maximum amount of $1,000?

on the 4/1/24

they returned my returned my $5000 back to the casino account. They blamed their system- migrating to a new system

and they asked me to request another withdrawal

when I initiated the withdrawal- I found out that the maximum withdrawal altered to maximum $1000

i decided to initiate 1000x 5 to make up for the $5000


when I deed that the money was returned again on 8/1/24 - since the $5000 maximum was back on 8/1/24

i initiated another withdrawal of $4950


since then from 8/1/24 my $4950 is sitting in the account and no action

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.

Dear matonga,


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.


Best regards,

Mirka
