Dear Alexander,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please understand, that a variety of the payment methods is not managed by the casino exclusively. Several factors as the license, geolocation and payment providers, all have a major influence. Have you tried to communicate this issue with the casino? If they didn’t offer you an alternative payment method to deposit funds in to your account, I’m afraid there is nothing we can do for you.

Please let us know if this explanation was satisfactory. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Petronela

Dear Sirs and Madames,

You advertise on your site with Western Union, Skrill and Co. I cannot use any of that. Since the deposit option must match the withdrawal option, as I have described to you, I can only use Bitcoin. However, Bitcoin is not an official currency, so it would be like trading real money for Monopoly money. The Bitcoin price fluctuates strongly from day to day. Your chat support also told me I could use Koalapays, so I opened an account there, but you don't offer Koalapays as a deposit option, so according to your email ivh cannot pay out with Koalapays.

Dear Alexander,

I’m sure you understand that I don’t work for SportsandCasino.com, but as one of the Casino.guru independent employees and professionals I’m trying to help you to resolve your problem. It’s out of my reach to change the depositing options in the casino. As I mentioned earlier, several factors as the license, geolocation and payment providers, all have a major influence.

Therefore, please check our recommended casinos for German players: https://casino.guru/top-online-casinos#tab=RECOMMENDED. To make absolutely sure you see the most suitable casinos, check your language, country and payment method preferences.

Please let me know if there is anything else, I could do for you, otherwise I will close this complaint. I will be waiting for your reply patiently.

Dear Alexander,

Which payment method you have used to deposit? Is this payment method available for a withdrawal?

Hi,

It is a winned bonus. I have fulfilled the bonus conditions and of course, now I cannot pay the money out. Of course it's a great trick to win new customers.

It's just a scam. Of course I will not receive the 70 euros.

Hi Alexander,

I looked at your case and understand your situation. If you found the aforementioned payment methods on our website, it's because right now we don't have such feature on Casino Guru that would display only the payment methods that are available for the country where the player is from. However it may come in the future. From my point of view, the only way to receive your winnings is to open a Bitcoin wallet. Since the Bitcoin is on the rise at the moment, you could eventually earn even some extra money. I recommend you to open a Bitcoin wallet and transfer the money there, let me know if you need help with this.

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback, but it is hardly possible to earn the minimum 25 euros as a deposit in Bitcoin without paying hefty fees. The 25 euros are 0.003 Bitcoin. Buying such a small amount of money is difficult and therefore also involves high fees, plus the exchange of Bitcoin in euros afterwards, this is not worth it. Furthermore, the price increases and decreases very strongly daily and weekly.

Hi Alexander,

I'm not sure what you mean by €25 deposit. You want to withdraw your €70 right? I asked the casino support if the casino charges the players any fees when they want to withdraw funds using Bitcoin and they said no. I also looked at the website, there are no fees mentioned. You can open a Bitcoin wallet, send the funds there and then either hold it or exchange it for euros. If you find this too complicated or don't like it, I can contact the casino and see if there is an another option. Please let me know.

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback.

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, the problem is not the transfer of the bitcoins, the problem is that I first have to make a deposit in bitcoins in order to withdraw the 70 euros that I have converted as a bonus. The required deposit is 35 euros in bitcoins and there is unfortunately a problem with meon.


Sincerely yours

Alexander Grimm

You related the fees to the purchase of the bitcoins to make the required deposit.

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, the complaint will become ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Hi Alexander,

I tried to contact the casino repeatedly, but it failed to reply. I’m afraid, there is not much that can be done without the help of the casino. I will mark the complaint "unresolved" in our system. I understand, this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the change of 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.

Best regards,

Peter
