Case summary

8 months ago

The player from Texas had a pending withdrawal since July 17 after playing a bonus. However, the casino claimed the player bet $35 on a game which the player refutes, insisting their bet was only $1 per spin. The player awaited proof. The casino informed us that after a detailed investigation on its side, it reconsidered its original decision since the maximum bet amount rule was not breached. An in-game feature was displayed in the complainant's game history as one transaction exceeding the maximum bet amount, which was incorrect. The casino paid out the disputed winnings in less than 1 week after they commented on the thread. The complaint is resolved.

Hello Leslie51,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Shazam Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

Could you please advise if your account is already verified and if yes, since when exactly? Isn't it possible to check your betting history somewhere within your casino account? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?

Please also understand that if you did bet over the maximum allowed limit, the casino has the right to confiscate your winnings as it is a breach of terms and conditions.

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

Thank you for responding I was verified a couple of months ago I tried to find my play history in the casino and all I could find was where the coupon was redeemed for the free spins and the amount that I requested to withdrawal it first says manager approved then says request withdrawal denied I'm sure I did not spend $35 when I requested the withdrawal I had 263 I think I may be a few dollars off but if I was spending $35 to spend it would have been way higher than that I spoke to chat at around 2:00 a.m. this morning and they said that I was denied because I spend $35 a spin I know that's not accurate I asked her to show me proof she said it first I could find it in my transition history when I asked her to show me where to find it she said I would have to talk to the finance company I've emailed them and I have no response to just yet thank you for getting back to me have a great day

I hope you can resolve this issue for me I did the complete play through at $1 spend no more didn't go over $10 I know that was the maximum that can be spent I feel they're just trying not to give me my money I'm verified but I've never gotten a withdraw before it took him forever to verify me even though I sent it on my documents at the requested time I requested a Bitcoin withdrawal thank you Leslie

I was able to track my playing history with Merlin riches I clicked on the game and hit the home button and it took me to the menu where it showed my plane history that's what Chad said to do today just a few minutes ago but when I clicked on it it only goes back to 719 2023 it doesn't go any further than that and every spin was under a dollar up until that point that I cannot see any further they keep saying I spent $35 but have not shown me proof yet I emailed support Finance and ask for proof and they have not responded yet thank you and have a good evening Leslie G*****ro

Hello, Leslie,

I am sorry to hear about your unpleasant experience, and I apologize for the delay. I will contact the casino and try my best to resolve the issue as soon as possible. Now I would like to invite Shazam Casino's representative to join this conversation and participate in the resolution of this complaint.

 

Dear Shazam Casino team,

Could you please provide us with an explanation of the player's situation in more detail? Have the disputed winnings been confiscated? Was it a no-deposit bonus?

If we are talking about a breach of the casino's Terms and Conditions, is the casino able to substantiate its decision with relevant evidence? Did the player gain any unfair advantage by exceeding the maximum bet?

Were any significant winnings won from the exceeded bet? If it looks just like a one-time mistake or unintentional action (or simply a lost bet), would it be an option for the casino to deduct the winnings from the exceeded bet and allow her to withdraw the remaining funds? Were any other rules breached?

It is possible to share the data directly here, with your reply, or by sending them to my email address (branislav.b@casino.guru).

Thank you in advance for providing the information.

Hello,


We've been in touch with the Casino representative in order to get more details regarding the case. After having more thorough look into the matter they were able to confirm that the Bonus terms violation didn't took place from the Customer's side. There was in-game feature purchase which reflected in gaming history as $35 bet. The matter has been escalated to the gaming provider to make sure that the outcome of the bet is fixed and reflected properly in the gaming report.

Please accept our apologies for the inconveniences caused. The Customer has been emailed with BTC wallet request, so the withdrawal will be processed as soon as the customer provides the details.

Should you have any questions we'd be happy to assist.


Kind regards,

Shazam Casino team
