The player from Italy had experienced delays in the withdrawal of his winnings from Sportaza Casino. His account had not been verified and he had deposited a total of 175 euros in three separate transactions. He had not used any bonuses for his gameplay. The player had been in regular contact with the casino, who had initially informed him that his withdrawal methods were incorrect. After resetting the waiting count time of 3-5 days, the casino had assured him that the withdrawal was sent to their financial department. We had advised the player to wait for the recommended 14 days for his withdrawal to be processed. The player later confirmed that his withdrawal had been successfully received, and his bank also refunded him an additional 25 euros due to discrepancies with the OTP from his text message. We had then marked the complaint as resolved.

Case summary
I have been requesting a refund of my winnings for several days now, deductions from my bank account have been carried out but the credit is slow to be issued and they keep coming up with various excuses for the withdrawal, sometimes even cancelling it themselves.

Please note that we recommend to wait at least 14 days for your withdrawal to be processed specially if it’s your first ever request
Looking forward to your answer.

Hi John117master,
Thank you so much for submitting your complaint and I am truly sorry to hear about your problem with Sportaza Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more questions before we move forward.
Could you tell me if your account is already verified and, if so, since when exactly?
Answer: it was not verified and KYC was not requested because I only paid 175 euros in tranches of 25, 50 and 100 euros (I attach image no. 3)
Did you accumulate your winnings with real money or did you use a bonus?
Answer: I did not use any bonus, the first time with a deposit of 25 euros, the second time I removed it because it materially prevented me in the casino at the online black jack tables from making bets higher than the minimum and much less double, on the third credit of I played 100 euros more than 4 times to make sure I could withdraw them without problems. (I attach image)
When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
Answer: I contacted every day, their answers were the same and then they informed me that the withdrawal methods were incorrect but I entered every single data useful for the withdrawal by bank transfer of which I am the owner like the card used, the last time I they reported waiting after having reset the waiting count time of 3 - 5, that the withdrawal was perfectly sent to their phantom financial department.
Please note that we recommend that you wait at least 14 days for your withdrawal to process, especially if it is your first ever request
Waiting for your reply.
Greetings,
Nick
PS: For better information I used a mastercard debit card with 3d secure system which requires the double entry of two parameters, a 6-digit OTP and a 6-digit personal pin. Having said that I paid an amount of 25 euros, 50 and 100 euros, to play I used real money and never bonuses, as I noticed while I was playing for the second time, that is, the 50 euros came out a limit which prevented me on black jack and others games to place bets exceeding 5 euros in bets and in this regard I eliminated the bonus, without using it, while for the first and third time it was not used. My account has not been verified and no email requesting it has been received, because I believe I have not exceeded any threshold having only credited 175 euros, the winnings were accumulated with the third payment tranche, i.e. that of 100 euros having played the sum more than 4 times or 416 euros on blackjack. I later realized that the charges were made to strange merchants other than Sportanza, novavogue, leading me to think that the site was fake and to arrange for the withdrawal of the sums won, in particular shops in the United Kingdom that were closed or non-existent. I have written systematically every day since I noticed this anomaly, I have all the transcripts, in particular they suggested that I redo the procedure, because the withdrawal forms they initially said were incorrect, simultaneously eliminating the 3 - 5 days of waiting, but I entered every useful IBAN and SHIFT data of the credit institution. The sums paid by me in three payments, that of 25 euros, is on: Date 21/03/24 Time 09.24 Loc.swindon Merchant: Officehut Imp.in Div.orig -25.00 Com. E. 0.00 Card number: 98451167 while the code OTP was directed to another merchant different from the one received via text message, but the credit was contextual; subsequent payments Date 21/03/24 Time 1.11pm Loc.nicosia Merchant: Sportaza Imp.in Div.orig -100.00 Com. E. 0.00 Card no.: 98451167 Date 21/03/24 Time 09.40 Loc.nicosia Merchant: Sportaza Imp .in Div.orig -50.00 Com. E. 0.00 Card number: 98451167, the accreditations are sent to Sportaza. I haven't played anymore because I don't think I'll be able to collect any winnings and they induce me to play them in order to lose them.
Hello john117master,
As stated above, withdrawals may take up to 14 days. In case there were some issues with the payment methods and the payment got canceled, try to use a different method or requesting again with the same one. If it's still pending, I would simply recommend to wait out the advised 14 days.
The debits occurred on the account on March 25, 2024 there were no problems from my credit institution, today their email of actual withdrawal arrived and at the same time the payment arrived
Hello john117master,
Do I understand it correctly that the withdrawal from the casino has arrived?
Yes, we can close the case and the bank also refunded me 25 euros because the OTP that arrived via text message had discrepancies with the operation charged.
