888 casino - Incorrect bankroll calculation

By NatAlab

12 years ago

During my play in 888 Live Dealer Casino, I have found an incorrect bankroll calculation for sum of 700 EUR within about an hour of my play.

I tried to resolve the problem with the casino support team, but didn’t succeed due to lack in cooperation and only 200 EUR were credited back to me. I ask you to help me. Also I think this is very important to inform other players that 888 live dealer casino sometimes experiences technical problems with their software, which influence on correctness of bankroll calculations.

The problem description (It is not so easy to understand, but I spent a lot of time and made my best to simplify it) :

On 21.02.03 I have played live blackjack.

Games history screenshots are:

here the image history1.jpg, which sent to support@askgamblers.com email.

here the image history2.jpg, which sent to support@askgamblers.com email.

If you will look into game results you will understand that something wrong there. The reason is incorrect order of the games. I don’t know why 888 do that, maybe it is bug, but the correct order of rounds differs. It took me some time to understand what is going on in the mess and to get the correct order.

The correct order can be found from Round Number.

Lets take the first round of the session (the first screenshot, the most bottom round for date 21.02.13).

The round number is: 130221-15:08:38-967564:

First 6 digits (130221 ) are date in following format Year/Month/Date. So 130221 means : 21.02.13

Next 6 digits (150838) - the correct time the round started. So the round started at 15:08:38. The understanding helped me to sort the rounds in correct order.

Other digits are not important for us.

To facilitate your understanding and calculations I’ve made a table where rounds are sorted in the correct order. I also added columns

1. Calculated Time From Round Number

2. Correct Bankroll

3. Delta - which shows the discrepancy amount

here the image sorted history.jpg, which sent to support@askgamblers.com email.

Now it is easy to see all problematic rounds and to calculate the correct results.

After the first session round 130221150838967564 my bankroll was 1484

Step 1: How much I won during the session, according to bets and payouts and what the correct balance should be?

Bets Sum is: 925

Payouts Sum is: 850

Wins: 850-925 = -75. So I lost 75 EUR. My bankroll should decrease by 75.

Initial balance (after first round) was : 1484

End balance should be: Initial Balance + Wins = 1484-75=1409

Step 2: What is wrongly calculated by 888 system:

Initial balance (after first round) : 1484

End Balance: 709

Wins: 709-1484 = -775. So Instead of 75 they wrongly decreased my balance by 775.

Step 3: How much they should refund?

775-75 = 700 EUR

Step 4: How much they refunded:

200. They owe me 500 EUR.

Payment Not Processed

Hi, I submitted my payment request on September 7. They said they couldn't pay to my card and asked me to upload my bank details and ID which I submitted.

I received an email thanking me for uploading them, when I logged in today September 16 I see my payment hasn't even been processed although they say it takes 3 working days. I have not received any further requests for i formation since I uploaded them. I haven't done anything wrong. I have never had this problem with any online casino before. So disappointing.

No response on verification of documents after submitting

I was asked to submit verification documents which I did.

I asked for numerous updates with no response and that someone would get back to me. I’m over a month now with no one reaching out to say if my documents are approved and I still have not had the money sent to me ($6k)

You can a number of interactions below of me trying to escalate and asking to speak with a supervisor and daily I am given the runaround

Endless documents uploaded since August 5th

Complaint #3366410

On august 5th after withdrawing $350 hours earlier I deposited some back on via E transfer. As this is the only way I ever fund my account.

After a run of good luck, I decided to cash out 10k of my winnings. I found it unusual that I did not receive my money within 30mins to 12 hours like every other time in the past.

After a few days of inquiring I was asked to provide a card that was so old and outdated that it no longer exists, then asked to provide bank statements for and account that is no longer open. I was then blocked from my account because I mentioned I wanted to pay some extra bills with the money.

After having my account restored, I reversed the 10k withdrawal like an idiot and lost almost half of it. Mangaed to turn revers withdrawal off, and request the remaining balance in a few withdrawals. Since then I have spent every day trying to get my money.

I have uploaded countless copies of any and all possible documents that can be useful, in many formats including all PDF's. My last upload being my bank wire instructions zoomed in, and highlighted arrows pointing to each of there listed information requirements. That was 5 or more days ago. Only silence since.

Any time I inquire I get the say copy and paste response check your email, it has been escalated to "whatever team" for Manuel review. You will hear back in 72. Hours. Or contact live chat. When I do that I get the same run around and 72hour timeline. Over and over again, I am embarrassed as I told people how awesome 888 was. I'll never say that again.

I just want my money and to be done with 888. I have never had this kind of issue with any other online casino. Don't play on 888

Blocked Withdrawals and Repeated Account Verification

Hello,

I would like to file a formal complaint regarding my withdrawals and the repeated verification requests on my 888 Casino account.

It has now been about one month since I started trying to withdraw my money. I have made several withdrawal requests, including $1,000, $1,800, $1,200, and eventually a $4,000 withdrawal.

Since the beginning, I have repeatedly been asked to verify my identity. I have provided all the requested documents multiple times, including my three most recent bank statements from National Bank of Canada in Montreal, my Quebec driver’s licence, and proof of address through a Hydro-Québec bill.

I have spoken with many different agents, probably between 15 and 20. Every time, I receive the exact same response: “Please send your three most recent bank statements and your ID.” I explain every time that I have already submitted these documents several times, but nobody seems able to give me a clear answer or permanently resolve the issue.

What is even more confusing is that three days ago, I received an email confirming that my verification had been successfully completed and that everything was in order.

However, the very next day, I received another message asking me to verify my identity again.

How is it possible for you to confirm that my account has been successfully verified and then ask me to complete the exact same verification again the next day?

Today, August 31, 2026, I am still in the same situation and have received no clear solution. This situation is causing me a great deal of stress and has become extremely frustrating.

I have fully cooperated with your team and provided every document requested. I am now asking for a supervisor or manager to personally review my case, because I do not want to keep receiving automated responses or repeating the same process with a different agent every day.

I simply want a clear answer: What is actually blocking my withdrawals, and when will I receive my money?

Please take this complaint seriously and provide me with a clear and concrete response.

Withdrawal blocked requested verification for cards I never used

I explained this clearly to the support team via live chat and email, multiple times, and offered full alternative verification: my CNP (Romanian personal ID number), a bank statement covering the relevant deposit period, and my ID card, which was already verified. Support repeatedly refused any alternative and insisted I must submit documents for the two cards I do not recognize, without further explanation or investigation on their end.

I have received only generic, templated responses that do not address the specifics of my case. My withdrawal remains blocked as a result, despite my full cooperation and willingness to provide any reasonable proof of the legitimacy of my funds.

I am asking 888 Casino to investigate this internally, confirm the actual payment method used for these disputed deposits, and process my withdrawal using the verification I have already offered (ID, CNP, bank statement matching card 3539).

Verification taking forever to verify and cannot be contacted by mail or chat

Hi there,

I am writing to formally address the ongoing and unacceptable delay in verifying my 888 account.

Despite having uploaded all the correct documentation, my account remains unverified, and I am trapped in a frustrating verification loop. To make matters worse, the support channels are completely inaccessible:

1. Email Support Failure: When attempting to email your support team directly, my messages keep bouncing back as undeliverable.

2. Communication Breakdown: I have no way to reach out via live chat or email to resolve this issue.

3. The Document Loop: I have email evidence showing a completely disorganized process where your team approves certain documents, rejects another, and then repeatedly asks for re-approval of documents that were already successfully submitted and accepted earlier.

Furthermore, I am now unable to upload any additional documents because the platform interface locks me out of doing so, leaving me with zero actionable options on my end.

I have read numerous reports from other users on public forums stating that verification with 888sport has taken them months to resolve.

Can you help get my account verified and facilitate this process?

Happy to provide any the relevant confirmation and emails to this message.

Sincerely,

Unresolved

Locked out of account with no withdrawal

I made several withdrawals on 888 casino in the amount of 1256 on August 1st. I usually received my withdrawals in the same day. I spoke to several agents regarding this matter I was told they needed my bank statement even though I provided it previously so I provided it again. I was told by an agent on live chat my withdrawal would be handled promptly once I sent this document. So I asked another agent again how long it would take but was never given a clear answer. Now I can't log onto my account.

Unexplained Rejection of Verification Documents and Delayed Withdrawal Processing

I am submitting this complaint regarding the handling of my withdrawal requests and account verification by 888casino.

I submitted two withdrawal requests (Withdrawal Request IDs: 968252944068 and 968242041784). As part of the verification process, I was asked to provide proof of my bank account, and I promptly submitted my bank statement.

My bank statement was later rejected, but I was not provided with any explanation for the rejection or informed of what was wrong with the document. To determine the issue, I contacted my bank. The bank confirmed that my full legal surname cannot be displayed on bank statements because of a system character limit. They issued an official letter confirming that the account belongs to me, stating my full legal name, and explaining why the bank statement displays a shortened version of my surname.

I resubmitted my bank statement together with the official bank letter explaining the name limitation in an effort to satisfy the verification requirements.

Throughout this process, I repeatedly contacted 888casino through the live chat to request updates and ask for clarification. However, I consistently received the same standard response without any explanation addressing my specific situation:

"Your conversation has now been transferred to our Security Team.

They're already reviewing your account and the information you've provided. We'll complete the review within 24 hours and will contact you if we need anything further.

There's nothing you need to do at this stage. We'll be in touch as soon as the review is complete.

Thank you for your patience while we complete this process."

Despite being told the review would be completed within 24 hours, I did not receive any meaningful update or explanation. My requests for clarification regarding the rejected document were not answered, and I was not informed of any additional information required to complete the verification process. My support reference ID is 844020803.

My concern is not only the delay in processing my withdrawals, but also the lack of transparency and communication throughout the verification process. My documents were rejected without explanation, and despite my repeated attempts to resolve the issue and provide additional supporting documentation, I have been unable to obtain a clear response.

I respectfully request that this matter be investigated, that my verification documents be reviewed fairly, and that my pending withdrawal requests be processed as soon as possible.

No explanation why casino 888 is not paied me

8 days waiting for 403 $. I just want to know when I will get my money and they blocked me… Never write me back for more information its stress of me out. I have a house to pay and they can't even tell me what the problem I just want information to get my money back! Please! Every day I am looking and Nothing is changing always (Processing). It's stressful for no reason; it's ruining my vacation, and then they temporarily blocked my account for no reason!

888 Canada Withdrawals Pending Since July 8 Despite Completed Verification

I am submitting this complaint regarding withdrawals totalling CAD $1824 from my 888 Canada account, which have remained pending since July 8, 2026.

Following my withdrawal request, 888 asked me to provide identity verification and Source of Wealth documentation. I provided all requested documents promptly. My documents were subsequently acknowledged as received, and I was informed that the matter had been passed to the Compliance team.

Since then, I have repeatedly contacted 888 through email and live chat. I have been told several times that my case was escalated, that I would receive an update, and that I would receive a phone call. None of those promised follow-ups occurred.

As of July 16, 2026, I have not been informed that any additional documentation is required from me. My withdrawals remain pending, and I have received no meaningful explanation or timeframe for completion.

I understand that compliance checks may be necessary, and I have cooperated fully throughout the process. My complaint is not about 888 conducting appropriate verification. It is about the prolonged delay, the lack of a meaningful status update, and repeated commitments to contact me that were not honoured.

My 888 case reference is 2997992. My live chat reference is Rec0BH46B0QQL

I am requesting that 888 complete the review without further unnecessary delay and release my withdrawals. If there is a genuine outstanding issue, I ask that 888 clearly identify it and provide a reasonable timeframe for resolution.

I can provide supporting emails, chat records, document-receipt confirmations, and screenshots showing the pending withdrawals.
