On Nov 7, 2011 I received an promotion email from Desert Nights Casino. I had not played at the casino for a while so I decided to play. I downloaded the casino, went to the cashiers claimed the 444% and $44 dollars. It also said you cannot withdraw the bonus. I started playing and did well. So I wanted to withdraw some of the winnings and went to the chat to see what I need to do to withdraw some of the winnings. Thats when I was told that I had not met the requirement. Somehow I got another promotion that I didnt opt for. I was with the chat agent about hour trying to make her understand I didnt do the promotion they were saying. It went on and on. I sent the email to support at the casino and received an reply of what might have happen. Im just think they are trying to get out of paying my winnings by saying I click on another promotion that they were offering. I just need your advice. I have a copy of the transcipt and a copy of the email and the reply that was sent to me. In other words that are saying the promotion that was offered to me and the one I click on in the casino wasnt for me. Pls help

Dear < name removed >

We reviewed your account and there is no trace of a 444% claimed nor completed. Seems to be you deposited $25 and played with your deposit only.

The welcome match offer is the one which is still attached to your account and I can gladly remove it for you so you can claim additional offers on your deposits. Here are the details:

Current Promotion is $500 FREE (30 Minutes Play) (Secondary Promo)

You actually completed the wagering for this offer and you were able to cash out. There was a $25 min deposit needed so can I ask you if this is the promotion you were referring to?

Thanks in advance,

Sloto

Deser Night Casino - Denied my withdrawal 180 USD

I received free spins no deposit bonus and I ended up winning $3000. However, under the terms of the bonus, I could only withdraw a max of $180. Disappointing, but totally understandable.

I chatted with an agent named Haven who explained the process for withdrawing the $180. I had to make a deposit of at least $25 and play through it, as well as get verified by sending in documents. I screenshotted the conversation and within the next couple of days, I made the $25 deposit and played through it.

I also sent in by email all 4 of the requested documents to get verified. I followed all instructions and then waited a few days before attempting to make the withdrawal of $180. When making the request I received an error message saying the amount requested exceeded the amount available, which was shown to be $0, despite my balance of $180.

When I contacted support again, a different agent told me that my withdrawal had been denied because it was winnings received from a no-deposit bonus without a deposit made. I explained that I had in fact made a $25 deposit using Bitcoin from a wallet registered to myself and I had played through the $25. The agent repeated that they reserved the right to deny a withdrawal from a bonus without a deposit and then they abruptly ended the chat while I was in the middle of typing a response.

I have the screenshots from the agent named Haven who confirmed to me that I was in fact entitled to withdraw the $180 after making a deposit and being verified.

I think it's really unfair and feels like a scam that I was told one thing, I did it as they instructed, and then someone else decided no, they were going to deny me my winnings.

Comes across as shady not to mention the rude customer service from the second agent who denied my withdrawal and ended our chat while I was typing a quick response to them.

Hopefully, a manager or supervisor can fix this and at least honor what their first agent said to me as evidenced in the screenshots.

Unfairly Delayed/Declined Withdrawal
Firstly I want to say that I love the customer service those guys are wonderful. I played a few weeks ago with a bonus code and won $400. I put in my request in for a withdrawal and received my check By Fed Ex. So I made another deposit this past Friday the 22nd and played with the same code and won a little over $2,000 this time and I played it down to exactly $2,000 and requested a withdrawal. I logged back in to check the status on Monday and it says that the withdrawal was processing. I checked my email this morning and the email reads your request to reverse your withdrawal has been accepted and your casino winnings have been credited back to your account. I then called customer service and the guy told me yes the check was processing. I asked them what was the email about I received this morning. He asked me to hold so he could research the account. He came back to the phone and said that I wagered more than the bonus code allowed. I explained that the increase amount button is not even an option. Those 50 free spins play on their own at .1 cent. There is no way it can be changed. I explained to him I always play the max of .1 cent which is $3.00. I won and cashed out a $400 check playing the same amount and the same code but now that’s it’s $2,000 they don’t want to pay. I log into my account and see that the email was not truthful and the winning were not refunded to my account for it only had a balance of $50.15 in which was the amount I had deposited. The customer service rep informed me that it was declined because of the wager about and I know that that can’t be the case because that reason is not listed anywhere in writing. I enjoy this casino and I hope this is just a misunderstanding that can be resolved. I have screen shots of all the bonuses used as well as emails. Please let me know what I can provide for proof. Thank you!!
