Casino Complaints

Delayed payment and terrible customer service.


Good evening,

I would like to submit a complaint about 888Casino regarding delayed withdrawal and extremely poor customer service.

In April this year I won over £24,000 playing live blackjack and withdrew all of my winnings in amounts varying from £3000-£4000 from 888 Casino. Other than an irritating 3 day "processing period", the withdrawal process was fairly simple. My account was verified therefore no issues arose from withdrawing such a large amount until the 20th April when a portion of my withdrawal was held by the casino (see screenshot attached).

To summarise this, 888 casino have a maximum withdrawal of $30,000USD per month which meant from my last withdrawal of £4,050.00 only £2,413.18 was paid leaving an outstanding amount of £1,636.82. This is reflected in my attached screenshot with reference to transaction ID #248334283412.
The $30,000USD limit is clearly stated in 888 Casino's T&C's and I was absolutely content with this.

My complaint with 888 Casino is due to the following:

It is now the 24th May and I still havnt recieved a penny of the outstanding balance. After a few painful exchanges with the basic customer support team early in May I was told that the funds would be released 30 days after my last withdrawal request (see attached). This information did not come quickly, it was after numerous calls,emails, referals, "escalations to operations team" (who do not deal directly with customers) and empty promises about returning calls.

I was content that the funds would be released on the 19th May (as per their T&C's and as per their correspondance which stated they would be released 30days after last withdrawal), my last withdrawal was the 20th April so I expected the funds to be in my bank account this week at the latest. One thing that really annoyed me was the fact they could not give a specific date when the funds would be released from their accounts - considering the processing time had  already elapsed in April and there was no unknown quantities in the transaction.

Fast forward to this week, on the 22nd May the funds still had not been released so I rang customer service again to ask the question. Nobody I spoke with could give me any information so again, it was escalated to the operations team - but after 2 days I recieved no reply. I followed up again today to ask why I hadnt recieved a reply and if they could identify when the money would be released. I recieved an email (see attached) explaining that I had in fact recieved all my funds in April to which I rang them immediately to challenge and complain. It seems this email was sent in error and was down to incompetance or lack of attention to details.

So in my last conversation today with 888 Casino I was told I had to now tell them how much I thought I was owed by them, indicating a sheer lack of professional conduct and simple customer service as it appears they have no idea how much they actually owe me. Also, my "matter" will take between 24-72 hours to be dealt with - under the circumstance this is totally outragous.

I feel that 888 Casino have totally undermined the fair play of the gambling industry, by refusing to pay a legitimate withdrawal which has already been approved by them. Furthermore, the customer service is absolutely disgraceful.

I hope the matter can be resolved quickly and they can pay the money which they owe.

Best regards,

Paul Fallon

The money has reached my bank account today.

After a shakey start and some poor customer service, 888Casino have redeemed themselves with the escalation of the incident.

I will continue to use 888 Casino in future but would suggest the "ground level" customer service reps recieve adequet training and perhaps have UK based team for this tier of support.

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.
