Unjustified delay


2 months ago

Hello,

I am opening this complaint because Casinova has been blocking my withdrawals for 4 weeks now (since mid-May). My account is fully verified, and they even successfully processed a first withdrawal of €500 at the very beginning.

​Currently, I have three pending withdrawals of €500 each (totalling €1,500) and a remaining balance of €15,000 on my account, for a total of €16,500. The support keeps giving generic excuses or ignoring me, playing for time. A French mediator from SosCasino tried to contact them, but they just deflected the issue.

​Since my account is perfectly in order and a previous payment was made, there is no legal reason to hold my money. I ask for the immediate validation of my €1,500 pending withdrawals and the guarantee that I will be able to withdraw the remaining €15,000 safely without further blockages. Thank you for your help

Casinova: How dare you?
I will no longer allow you to question my honesty and integrity. At this stage, it is your integrity that is under suspicion, not mine.
To the AskGamblers Mediator,
​Please look at the casino's response above: it is a pure automated template. They did not even open or inspect the document.
​1. The document provided IS the original digital PDF downloaded directly from my official ENGIE provider account.
​2. This document features an official 2D-Doc security barcode. This is a cryptographic system created by the French State. If the document were "modified", "edited", or "altered" as they blindly claim, the 2D-Doc signature would immediately fail.
​Casinova Casino is systematically rejecting official, cryptographically secured government-level documents with copy-pasted responses to intentionally stall my withdrawal.
​I ask the AskGamblers mediator to step in now: either force the casino to verify this authentic 2D-Doc PDF, or close this complaint as UNRESOLVED due to bad faith so this unfair practice is recorded on their profile.

Dear AskGamblers Mediator,
​The casino’s response is unacceptable. They are now broadly claiming that official documents are "modified" simply to avoid paying.
​At this point, I have submitted 6 official, valid documents:
​Original PDF bank statements from La Banque Postale.
​An official French Tax Return document (Taxe Foncière).
​A physical water bill from Limoges Métropole.
​An official ENGIE energy contract attestation issued on July 22, 2026, featuring an authentic French 2D-Doc security barcode.
​I am now asking for a clear and immediate resolution:
​Option A: Casinova Casino validates my ENGIE proof of address immediately and processes my €1,500 pending withdrawals.
​Option B: Casinova Casino provides concrete, technical proof to AskGamblers showing how all 6 official documents from French state-regulated entities were supposedly "modified".
​Option C: AskGamblers closes this complaint as UNRESOLVED due to bad faith, impacting the casino’s rating accordingly.
​I have fully complied with every single KYC rule. I leave this matter in the hands of the AskGamblers team to enforce fairness.

Dear AskGamblers Mediator,
​The casino is now making baseless accusations of "modified documents" simply because they have run out of excuses.
​The ENGIE attestation I provided is an official, original digital PDF containing an authentic French 2D-Doc security barcode. Accusing an official state-regulated energy provider document of being "falsified" without any technical proof is pure bad faith to avoid paying my money.
​I have satisfied all legal KYC requirements. I kindly ask the AskGamblers mediation team to intervene, review the document, and enforce the payout of my pending withdrawals.

Delayed payment delayed verification and technical problems

I would like to submit a formal complaint regarding Casinova Casino.

On 8 December 2025, I played at Casinova Casino and won a total of €1,270. I attempted to make a withdrawal immediately after winning, but I was informed that withdrawals could not be processed due to a “technical issue” on the casino’s side.

At the very beginning, I proactively asked customer support about account verification, as I wanted to ensure there would be no delays with withdrawals. Despite this, the casino did not request any verification documents at that time.

Only two weeks later was I finally asked to submit verification documents. I provided all the requested documents promptly. Now, another two weeks have passed, and I have been informed that my documents are still “under review,” with no clear explanation, deadline, or progress updates.

Throughout this process, I have contacted customer support multiple times. The responses have been vague and repetitive, stating only that the matter is being handled, without any concrete information or resolution.

This situation is unacceptable. The delay appears to be caused entirely by the casino:

Initial withdrawal attempts were blocked due to a claimed technical issue

Verification documents were requested only after a significant delay

The verification process itself has now stalled for weeks without justification

If a casino offers withdrawals and allows players to deposit and play, it should be prepared to process withdrawals and verification in a reasonable and transparent timeframe. Waiting over a month due to internal issues and delays is not reasonable.

I am requesting AskGamblers’ assistance in investigating this case and helping to ensure that my legitimate winnings of €1,270 are paid without further delay.

I am ready to provide all supporting evidence, including dates, screenshots, and communication logs, if required.

Kind regards
