In fact, this is the terrible casino I ever dealt with.. My account is being blocked! The casino locked me out because I was told different reasons that are not true. An account manager of Silver Oak told me that their fraud department detected that my IP address was from New Mexico. That is incorrect! I have sent in my documents required to prove that wrong. I am a legitimate customer form California. I have done no fraud and Silver Oak online casino is treating me badly! I am questioning I have been denied and getting all these troubles is that because I have a winning of US $2700?? They have tried many ways to deny me.. for example, my credit card was denied because of unknown reasons that they couldn't provide me (and they couldn't tell me the reason because it was a third-party processor). All sorts of excuses! I have sent them all the documents proof that I am a legitimate customer from California and I have a legit credit card. That has been taking a lot of my time and energy to follow-up with them both on phone calls and live chats for many days! Yet, they keep bouncing me back and forth between account department, security department and customer service.. one side was telling one story and another was different story. They still couldn't sync up and just put that to me let alone helpless (a customer) and hoping that I would eventually give up!

Hi llee,

I’d be surprised if you did agree with the casino’s position, however, I’ll go point by point and present you with more facts.

In your first paragraph you state: "That why my deposit and wining were all gone. Naturally, as a custom I was NOT happy and disappointed and I would complaint to the live chat customer service about what was going on. Because I felt it was not a safe place to gamble my money, I felt I was manipulated and treated unfairly in the game. And I asked that I wanted my money back."

Here is the transcript from that live chat:


llee_me: i have a complaint



llee_me: i was winning and suddenly i just kept losing every bet



llee_me: it is not fair to grabbed the winning like that



llee_me: I am trying to resolve it here with you. If not i am going to dispute my credit card next.



llee_me: please refund my money and close my account. I don't think this is fair.



llee_me: i was wining for almost 2 hours and that suddenly decline on every bet was unbelivable. clearly i was stalked or downplay by the program



llee_me: please refund me my original deposit and close my account



You made the statement “if not, I am going to dispute my credit card.” To any casino that statement would be viewed as a threat of a chargeback.

To your next point regarding birth dates. You had three separate accounts at Silver Oak and two separate accounts with Cool Cat. The three accounts at Silver Oak each had a different birthdate. The two at Cool Cat each had a different birthdate. Obviously, people can inadvertently transpose or mistake a number from time to time, but in your case five times? It would defy all probabilities that you would have such mistypes, but more predictably, you were hoping not to get caught out having multiple accounts.

You DID, however make a preemptive strike to make things right when you believed you were going to have a withdrawal at Silver Oak, by contacting live chat asking to have your birthdate changed to line up to what would be on your identification you would be providing. So yes, you did attempt to defraud the casino in this and thus, your winnings would be voided.

With the issue of your deposits not being processed, it is really a moot point. With Cool Cat (the casino you believed was rigged and threatened to chargeback with unless we refunded your deposit), as no deposit was ever received, none would be refunded.

At Silver Oak, there was no deposit processed, yet you insisted there was and you provided us with the billing descriptor. Here’s where you really tripped up, though: First, you gave a descriptor for American Express—you used a MasterCard when you attempted your deposit at Silver Oak. Second, none of our processors have locations in Azerbaijan.

At the end of the day, because you attempted to defraud the casino, your winnings were voided. Had your deposits been processed, we would have refunded those funds, but because the deposits were not processed, there is nothing to refund.

And of course, it makes perfect sense that we would block any further activity by you in all of our casinos, following this.

I attached the transaction records that I sent to Silver Oak, but the account manager said this was not from their processor. Therefore, I went ahead and contacted AMEX about this because this payment has been lost.
