Legitimate winnings voided without any explanation and evidence


Hello at Askgamblers

I wish to file a complaint against 888casino.

Last week I had some winnings on this site and I thereafter tried to make a withdrawal €900. They then asked for me for some documents before they could process this payment - ie identification which I sent them via their the steps shown on their internal routines on their website (Swedish passport + Icelandic drivers license plus copy of both sides of the credit card registered there which is in my name).
I have never had problems on other websites providing these exact forms of documentation for ID when I wanted to withdraw winnings elsewhere so I cannot see that there can be anything wrong with my documentation. The cryptic answer they give is hardly help as there is no motivation given for their actions.

What is funny to note is that they congratulate me to my winnings on October 7, 2015 at 01:29 and say there that the 900.00 EUR were transferred back to my bankroll (#206310771555).
They then - a mere 3 minutes later at 01:32 the same day - proceeded to have have my account cancelled without getting a motivation as to why this was done other than there had been "careful consideration of all factors involved"

They also state very vaguely that "Please be advised, due to our internal security procedures we are unable to discuss this matter further.
The account will remain blocked and any money in your bank roll will not be refunded and no cashouts will be paid."

I had €900 awaiting as a withdrawal and I find this totally unacceptable and fraudulent. They took my money when I played at first all according to their rules but when I won and wanted my winnings they just cancel and basically say "screw off you get nothing" when I wanted a withdrawal. Crooks. People like this should be seriously reprimanded and all people playing online gambling should be warned of this specific website.

I am attaching the relevant communication with aforementioned online casino and would be very grateful if you can look into the matter at your earliest convenience

Sincerely

Björn

Withdrawal Stuck in Manual Review With No Estimated Timeframe
I am submitting this complaint regarding an outstanding C$9,000 withdrawal from 888casino, requested on October 1, 2026, via Interac e-Transfer.

My withdrawal confirmation ID is 988033366704.

As of October 8, my withdrawal remains in "Awaiting Process" status, with C$0 processed.

What I find particularly concerning is that I have successfully received several smaller withdrawals through the same payment method since requesting the C$9,000. These smaller withdrawals were processed quickly and without issue.

On October 5, I received a request from 888casino's Operations Team for additional verification, specifically a recent bank statement. I promptly submitted an official bank statement containing the requested information.

Since then, I have contacted customer support multiple times seeking an update. I have been informed that my withdrawal is undergoing manual review and has been escalated to the relevant department.

My primary concern is that 888casino cannot provide any estimated timeframe for how long this manual review will take or when I can expect my withdrawal to be processed.

Most recently, on October 7, customer support confirmed that the withdrawal had already been escalated but stated that they had no further updates regarding the outcome.

I fully understand and respect the need for identity verification and security procedures. I have cooperated with the documentation requests and am willing to provide any additional information reasonably required.

However, having C$9,000 pending with no indication of when the review will be completed is extremely frustrating, particularly when customer support cannot provide any meaningful information beyond advising me to wait.

I am requesting AskGamblers' assistance in obtaining a clear explanation of the delay, confirmation of whether any further verification is required, and a reasonable timeframe for completing the review and releasing my C$9,000 withdrawal.

Thank you for your assistance.

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.
