UNRESOLVED

Case summary

1 month ago

The player from Finland's account had been deleted after requesting a withdrawal of €220.25 following the completion of wagering requirements. Despite having provided the requested documents, the casino refunded the initial deposit (€200) without explanation, instead of the full amount owed. The Complaints Team had reached out to the casino for clarification on the account closure and confiscation of winnings, but no satisfactory response was received. Consequently, the complaint was marked as 'unresolved'.

I deposited €200 at the casino and claimed the second welcome offer. I completed the wagering requirements and then submitted a withdrawal request before leaving the casino. The next day, I found my account had been deleted. I contacted them through chat, and they said they would get in touch via email. Several weeks went by before I finally received a reply asking for documents, which I promptly sent. Once those were approved, they requested additional documents, which I also provided. After that, they suddenly refunded my deposit (€200) without any explanation, even though the amount I should have been able to withdraw after completing the wagering requirements was €220.25.

Dear eerovilenius,

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

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

  • Do I understand correctly your winnings on top of your deposit represent the 220€?
  • What games did you play to accumulate your winnings? (slots, live games, betting on sports) 
  • Did you learn why your account was closed and your winnings confiscated?

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

Best regards,

Tomas

After all this time I have still not gotten a proper response from the casino about your case. I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. 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 might 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. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Gaming Curaçao Authority (complaints@gaming-curacao.com) and submit a complaint to them. The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players. Please let me know if you need help with submitting the complaint or how they responded if you can do it on your own (peter.c@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
