Hello mecklenbrauck80,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Smokeace 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? Did you use real money balance to achieve the tournament placement? Is there any proof of your placement in this tournament? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
Looking forward to your answer.
Regards,
Nick

Yes, I am fully verified, I played with real money, the last contact was today and it was about the same topic, but I keep being put off that everything is being checked. But in my opinion, 2 months to check is not appropriate - you can't organize tournaments and hold back the winnings for several months. I'll pass on the proof of placement and I'll have to find it first

Yes, I confirm my winnings have now arrived, thank you again.
But I would still be very interested, which is why, despite my 25 inquiries, I got a different answer and was put off

Great news, mecklenbrauck80!
Thank you for confirmation and for using the Casino Guru complaint resolution centre. I am very glad you have received your funds. As the issue has been successfully resolved, I will now mark your complaint as 'resolved' in our system. Although I sincerely hope it will not happen, please do not hesitate to contact us in the future if you run into any issues with this or any other casino. We are here to help.
As for your comment about the casino's unresponsiveness - for us, the most important is that your issue was resolved. Unfortunately, we cannot explain it, and there are many possible reasons why it took so long. Sometimes, there are delays or issues within the casino and internal communication between its departments, or the process only takes so long due to many requests with higher priority from players.
Thank you very much, Smokace Casino Team, for your quick help and cooperation.
Best regards,
Branislav, Casino.guru
