Unjustified complaint

REJECTED

Case summary

1 month ago

The player from the United States had met the playthrough requirements for withdrawal, but she couldn't withdraw her $408 winnings because she had used a free chip. The casino insisted that the free chip could not yield real money. It seemed to be a common practice of the casino to ignore players completely in their attempts to mediate any kind of issue; therefore, the complaint remained unresolved. The casino provided evidence that she had redeemed consecutive free chips, which, according to their terms, resulted in non-cashable winnings. Consequently, the complaint was rejected.

It clearly shows that my withdrawable amount is $408 as I meant all the play through requirements however I am unable to withdraw the money. They said because I used my free chip which is money they claim is a gift isn’t real money and even though I followed the instructions and played through as required I am still unable to withdraw my money.file

Dear pallantesandra1,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your problem.

I have checked the casino's Bonus Terms and this is what I found:

The Casino will occasionally offer Promotional Coupons as Free Chips.
The maximum withdrawal amount for any free chip given is $100.
For example, if you are given a $100 free chip and request a withdrawal amount of $500, you will only be approved for $100.

Has the customer support informed you that you may withdraw a maximum of $100 or have you been told that you may withdraw nothing at all? Please forward any relevant communication between you and the casino regarding this issue to veronika.l@casino.guru.

Could you please confirm if you passed the KYC verification?

Have you made any deposits into this casino?

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

Veronika

I was told that I wasn’t allowed to withdraw anything at all. I haven’t made any deposits because every time I tried it declined it. I did pass the KYC verification

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.

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,

Peter

We’ve reopened this complaint at the request of New Funclub Casino. We received the following message:

Hello,
As I checked, the player redeemed consecutive freechips. As per the terms of the casino, winnings acquired from consecutive freechips is non-cashable. Which is why player's withdrawal was rejected by the payout team.

Dear New Funclub Casino representative, would it be possible to provide me with the betting history of the player to prove that this has taken place? You can forward any information to my email. (peter.c@casino.guru) Thank you in advance!
