The Pokies Casino - Player awaits missing withdrawals.

Dear andersonttt,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with The Pokies Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to make sure I understand your situation completely.

Do I understand correctly that you received withdrawals from the casino before?

Could you please specify if you accumulated your winnings with or without an active bonus?

Has the casino confirmed that they sent the money to you?

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards

Veronika

Do I understand correctly that you received withdrawals from the casino before?

yes, I have received from them before and always to the same account.

Could you please specify if you accumulated your winnings with or without an active bonus?

they were normal winnings, not related to a bonus

Has the casino confirmed that they sent the money to you?

No, they have though after reviewing their transactions and and my bank statement identified 2 withdrawal requests which they also asked to confirm my banking details were correct for those specific two withdraws.

Thank you very much, andersonttt, for providing all the necessary information. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Peter (peter.c@casino.guru) who will be at your assistance. I wish you the best of luck and hope to see your problem being resolved to your satisfaction in the near future.

Hi Peter, I have actually narrowed down the exact date and transaction the original request has the incorrect dates

Hello there,

Thank you andersonttt for providing us with all the information. I hope we'll be able to resolve this issue together. You can share any additional information to my email. (peter.c@casino.guru)

I would now like to ask The Pokies Casino for their help in resolving this complaint. We would like to know what is the issue with the withdrawal and what can we do to help the player receive their winnings.

Thank you!

Hi Peter,

I first raised the issue around the middle of Feb 2024.

Summary

There are multiple payments over January & February

I keep a detail journal of withdrawal request & reconcile them against my bank statement.

I have identified 2 missing payments totalling approx $19,000.00 by simply adding the total request made minus total bank deposits received = Missing Amount.

I received a detailed transaction list from thepokiesnet so I could further reconcile.

The attachment provides this in detail

1. My withdraw requests
2. My bank statement
3. The Pokies.net processed records

I have pretty much completed their work for them but it has taken over 6 weeks.

I have provided them with all this information + screenshots.

The 2 missing amounts of $9000 each are highlighted in Red

1. 23/01 withdraw request which they apparently processed which I did not receive as shown on my statement.
2. 12/02 withdraw request which they apparently did not receive.

I have a finance background as you can tell.

Any questions please reach out

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 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 Gaming Curacao Authority (http://www.gaming-curacao.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 (peter.c@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
