Deposit Limit Request Ignored


I have been ripped off to the tune of 4K by this casino. I joined on Saturday, and sent an email to their support requesting a deposit limit of 100.00 pounds per week. This was ignored and I was able to make several deposits totalling 4000.00 pounds. I did have a bit o luck near the end, got up to 6700.00 and requested a withdrawal. I requested a lock on my account for 2 days on Sunday until the withdrawal was processed, but I was told by livechat on Monday that it had been processed and was on its way to my bank. I then got the account reopened as I thought there would be no temptation for me to gamble this money away as it would not be waiting in my casino account, but I was wrong and stupidly played it all away. I now feel completely sick and wish they had put in place the deposit limit I had requested. I work hard to earn this money, and my planned holiday for this year has just gone down the drain.

Received a call from Hippodrome today to say its all my fault, I shouldn't have gambled and their agents didn't do anything wrong by not putting in place a deposit limit and by opening my account again before the cool off was finished. So I am 4,000.00 pounds down, no holiday, on the verge of a breakdown and the casino has no responsibility. Stay away from Hippodrome if you value your sanity, and want to get a fair chance gambling.

I set up my account on 27/01 and deposited a total of £730 via direct bank transfer. After playing I withdrew 1567.11 at 12.01 the same day. I sent over all of my identification. Documents. I then checked on live chat if anything else was needed and they said no and that I would be paid imminently. Since I requested a withdrawal on the 27th I was asked to provide proof of address and also proof of my debit card. - I have since sent multiple bank statements proof of address and Id. The operations asked for proof of ownership of my card as it wasn’t visible on my statement. I sent a photo of my card with all of the digits covered barring the last 4 digits as well as this I went into branch and asked for a print out showing my card info which they reluctantly gave me (it’s not normally something they do) I just want to clarify what the issues are as I’m waiting for my withdrawal.

I’ve also sent bank statements, screenshots from online banking showing the transactions, photos of my card with middle numbers covered, screen shots from my mobile banking app showing the card details as well. I am getting very mixed messages from support asking me for details I’ve already sent as well as telling me I would be paid. I’m very confused as everything I’ve sent more than proves my ownership of the card.

I am desperately trying to have this resolved as it’s causing me a great deal of stress and anxiety. I have checked the verification and withdrawal faqs on the hippodrome online website and they clearly state that screen shots can also be used. Please can someone help me I cannot speak to anyone on the phone due to Covid as phone chat isn’t working. The time frame stated has now elapsed and I really need my funds. I will attach everything I have from live chats and that I have sent over

Twice told I was verified but withdrawals still not processed
Three months ago I signed up to Hippodrome online Casino. I requested three withdrawals within a week.

3 months later and the withdrawals are not processed. I was asked to complete KYC. I sent in all my ID and three bank statements.

I received an email confirming I was verified.

A month later I had still not received my withdrawal. I went on chat and spoke to a manager. He spoke with Operations and they apologied, stated everything would be approved again and I would hear in 24 hours.

Two weeks later and nothing had been processed! I received another email when I chased stating they wanted a utility bill! I went on chat furious and was told they still wanted a utility bill. I specified I had provided three bank statements and a utility bill and copied the chat transcript I had with the manager. The chat agent was dismissive and said they would never process my withdrawal without another utility bill! My chat with the manager who confirmed the operations would approve and process everything within 24 hours had covered this! The fact I was paperless as an ethical and religious choice so could provide nothing more then I had and that this whole ordeal was making me unwell after I had been confirmed I was verified twice.

I need help here as Hippodrome are lying to me, spinning me in circles and saying im verified and withdrawals will be processed to then go back on this. They are breaching UKGC LCCP and this is making me sick with stress.

Ive attached confirmation I am verified and they are STILL NOT paying out!
