Last Saturday, 19/08, I made a cash withdrawal. I have all my documentation uploaded correctly and up-to-date.

The casino's explanation for the delay is that it can take "up to" 7 days to process the withdrawal.


For the last 3 days, I have been writing to them in order to know the status of my request, but all I receive are vague answers stating that their financial department is still processing it.


From what I'm seeing, it seems that the only way to get a payout from this casino is by threatening them.


Two months ago, when I lodged a complaint here and sent them a message alerting them to the complaint and a possible lawsuit, I had the money within 24 hours.

Dear 986Manu,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. We are sorry to hear about the issue with your withdrawal and understand your concern. However, please bear in mind that it’s quite usual for withdrawals to take a couple of days or even weeks to get fully processed. This means that it may take some time before your money appears in your account. This delay may be caused by unfinished KYC verification or a high volume of withdrawal requests.
That’s why we advise players to be patient, cooperate fully with casino, and wait at least 14 days after requesting their withdrawals before submitting a complaint.

If your account has been successfully verified, your game history checked, your withdrawal approved by the casino, and you still haven't received your winnings by 14 days since requesting the withdrawal, we will intervene and do our best to help you.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,
Complaints Resolution Center

Hello Kristina,


Today, after 10 days, they wrote me an email from the casino explaining that they still had to check with the game providers that everything was ok before making the withdrawal transfer.


I have responded to them explaining that this situation was not normal and that I had made a complaint here.


Now I want to enter the page and they have disabled me as a user.


I think this whole situation stinks so bad

I have not yet received the money nor have I received a response from the Casino to several emails I have sent them.


And they also have my account disabled saying that they are investigating it

Thank you for your reply, 986Manu. Have you made any successful withdrawals before? Have you received any confirmation regarding successful KYC verification?

Have you accumulated your winnings with or without an active bonus?

Good morning

A little over a month ago I made a withdrawal and it was successful because I had to file a claim here and almost threaten to go to the police.


The only notification I received from the Casino, 10 days after requesting the withdrawal, was that I had a pending withdrawal but that they had to investigate the providers to see that everything was ok, and in the process they disabled my account because, according to them, it is in research.


And there is no kind of bonus involved in this.

Hello Kristina,


A few days ago I sent you an email explaining the entire case and with additional new information.


The summary is:


A month ago I requested a withdrawal


They tell me about the casino that it can take up to 7 business days to manage it


After 7 business days I receive an email from casino management telling me that they have to investigate with the suppliers that all the games were ok in order to send me the money.


At the same time they block my account saying that it is under investigation


In turn, from the casino chat they tell me that this is something normal that can take 2 weeks


Tomorrow it will be 2 weeks of this and I still don't have the money and the casino still doesn't give any explanations other than being patient



Various casino excuses:


The manager is on vacation

We have updated the system and we cannot access

The financial department is not operational right now



Two months ago when I made a withdrawal, I ended up filing a complaint here and threatening to report it to the police, they asked me to confirm some bank details and the next day I had the money.


Right now they don't even pay the money and I'll have to end up going to the police.


Since I published the complaint here, you have asked me for all the information but I don't know if you have contacted the Casino or if they have given you any response and you write to me when the 6-day period that you set for giving a response is about to expire. in the chat just to ask me again for the information that I have already explained here in the different messages

The withdrawal has been rejected and my account is blocked. According to them, it is under investigation and that it may take two more weeks while they do not make the withdrawal.


It has been more than a month since the withdrawal request

Hi 986Manu,

 

I've reviewed your case and fully understand your concerns. I'll try my best to help you with the issue by contacting the casino.

 

I'd like to ask Spitfire Casino to join this conversation and share more information regarding the case.

Could you kindly explain the reason for blocking the player's account and withholding their winnings?

 

Thank you.

 

Best regards,

Tomas

I paste a text from another Casino opinion page about a user's experience:


"I ask you not to think about playing in this casino. After having reopened my account and they asked me to do so, it turns out that when I had 2000 euros deposited (I only play American roulette) I was lucky enough to bet €50 on double zero and it came out for what I got 1800 This was Thursday the 13th of this July.

Well, speaking with the manager named Caroline, she tells me that according to my agreement, the withdrawals would be in 3 or 4 days at most, leaving me to pay the 2000 that I withdrew, on Tuesday the 18th, which is today, or on Wednesday, July 19, which is tomorrow. .

She sends me an email today saying that between today the 18th and tomorrow the 19th they will pay me the 2000 and that she is waiting for me to tell her if the payment will be today or tomorrow.

What was my surprise when I just received an email from Manager SpitFire Casino saying that before approving my 2000 withdrawal they had noticed some irregularities in my play and winnings and that my account is under review.

This is something that some casinos use to avoid paying but it turns out that they cannot prove anything since there is no irregularity and thank goodness I made screens of all the biggest prizes, for example the one of €1800.

With this I make it clear that it is one of the worst casinos according to what can be read on various websites, for example Casino Guru, and that they are dedicated to scamming users with comments about irregularities that do not exist.

User in this casino: joberto.

I have screens of the prizes won in American roulette and I can send them if required

Date of experience: July 18, 2023"


It can be seen that this Casino systematically scams its users by not paying their winnings.

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 think that these people don't care about the casino's valuation anymore, they open another tomorrow and keep all the money.


It's a shame if you can't apply pressure in a more forceful way.

Dear 986Manu,


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. 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 Antillophone Gaming Authority (certria@gaminglicences.com or complaints@gaminglicences.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 (tomas.k@casino.guru).


I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.


Best regards,

Tomas
