Verification Issues


This complaint is really annoying heres the reason..I am a romanian lass but have lived in the Uk since 2004 .i spoke to live support at this casino / poker room through the website and asked if i would have any issues whatsoever creating and depositing a new acct because i am in romania on a visit at the moment.I kept a transcript of the chat which i have and louis i spoke to said you will have no issues at all .so i creates an acct and deposits and login start playing and am asked by online support why i am ijn romania and i explain the chat i had beforehand .he advises your acct will be locked till you send us documents to which i explained was the reason i had that chat beforehand ..I wanted then to speak to or an email address of a manager to make a complaint and was swiftly booted out the software I of course realised that having a uk address and a romanian IP would cause an issue hence the reason i of course asked online chat first if there was to be an issue. I am absolutely appalled at the way this clip joint has treated me and wish to make this complaint.

You have recieved an email from the Customer Services manager this morning. We have apologised on a number of occassions for the misinformation given however this does not change our documents policy.

You also was not kicked out or removed from the poker software as it is not our policy to remove anyone from the software. Your account was restricted so that you was unable to login the next time you logged out of the account until satisfactory documentation was recieved.

There is nothing more we can add to the case I am afraid as our position on the matter is clear,

i dont want this to turn into a to and fro - the problem i have is which part of the i want to SIGNUP was your agent struggling with it clearly shows on the transcript because im not stupid i knew that this event might occur because of where i am at the moment and tried to go to lengths to make sure it would not occur..theres also the other matter of when i logged in i asked for an email for a manager to discuss this and was promptly booted from the poker room...great customer service you have at your casino i must say...

Unfortunately the information you was provided with was misunderstood by the agent in question, the agent thought you was asking if you could login to the account and this has been personally fedback to the agent and we have apologised profusely for this error, it is not something which was done on purpose but a genuine mistake, simple human error.

This unfortunately, does not detract from the fact that an account was opened, in Romania with a UK Address and a UK payment method registered to the account which alerted our security department to the fact that someone in Romania was trying to open and access a UK account, behaviour which could be typical of ID Theft and as such, a decision was made to suspend the account and request documentation which only the true owner of the payment method would have access too.

This is in line with our standard account terms and conditions which the client has accepted upon opening the account (regardless of the information given by the chat support agent). These terms have been checked and authorised by our license holder, the AGCC and unfortunately, if the client wishes to continue to operate an account with us, or withdraw the funds from the account, the documentation is required.

Again, we extend our apologies for the mis-information given, this has been dealt with internally.

£3488 of legitimate bonus winnings removed from balance
I was offered a bonus of 100% up to £500 which I accepted, and was able to complete the bonus and finished my session with a balance of approximately £4531.After wagering was complete, I noticed that my balance had dropped down to £1043. I received an email from Genting stating that: ‘We are writing to inform you that Casino Management have reviewed your account gameplay and determined you are not using your account for recreational use, rather only playing to use casino bonuses. We have therefore made the decision not to offer you any further bonuses or promotions. We can confirm that the decision has been made in accordance with our End-User Agreement and General Terms and Conditions, specifically: ''4.4 Promotional Offers: All promotional campaigns or competitions will be subject to the terms and conditions of those customer offers as well as these terms and conditions. We reserve the right to withdraw the availability of any offer or all offers to any customer or group of customers at any time and at our sole and absolute discretion.''’ I do not understand how this term gives Genting the right to confiscate legitimate winnings, when to my knowledge I have not breached any of the terms and conditions, and after livechatting with Genting support staff I was unsatisfied with the answers I was given. The clearest interpretation of this term is that Genting reserve the right to stop my account from receiving bonuses, not that they are able to remove my winnings. I was assured that ‘you have only lost your bonus funds Stefan not real cash’, which is incredibly insensitive as £3000 is a lot of money to me (money that I need), and it just seems like Genting were perfectly happy to take my money up until the point when I actually got a win. I’d like to make sure that they won’t do this to anyone else.I’m also worried that there is no way for me to appeal this decision, after getting no clear answers on livechat.

Live blackjack software glitch
I deposited a total of £3000 playing live blackjack on the evening of 17/04. During my time playing I encountered problems with their transmition of dealer video/software as it would freeze and only show me the numbers what I was being dealt. The problem however is I never got an option to stick, stand or double down as the buttons were missing. This happened on more than one occassion and my last hand I was dealt a 4 and 3, dealer with a 7 but I had not option to hit as no button available. All it showed was the dealer hitting a 10 and me sticking on 7 losing the hand. I contacted genting who said they would contact the suppliers to find out what was going on and then they would contact me back, no timeframe given even though I asked. I contacted them today and I was told the problem with my internet connection and I autofolded the hand due to this. My arguement is how do I know it was my connection? Also if the connection was so bad how comes it showed dealer hitting a 10 and me sticking? Connection is good enough to show me losing. I have played live blackjack with numerous casinos all through evolution and have never experienced anything like this before. I feel this is unexceptable from the casino and am requesting my deposits back due to these issues I experienced. Failure to do this and I will put in a chargeback request to get my money as I clearly had no chance of winning, just handing over my money. Should a connection be so bad wouldn't it be terminated and hands aborted due to connection issues rather than just take a players money??

Concerns about the payout variation of the Avenger game in Real and Fun mode.
Dear Genting and fellow gamblers. I have tested over 500 slot games in fun mode and I have lost on each and every one in long term. I haven't seen any slot game which would be safe in long term. So from this I can state the fun mode payout rate and the real mode payout rate is almost the same. However I have found one game, the Avenger.... This game gave me, and give me always over 1million dollar in less than one hour. Always. No variation. The game has frozen at 1.4 million dollar. So we are talking about a fraud and/or software failure. The game did not state that fun mode is significantly different from real mode, since in every game fun mode results were almost the same like real mode. Otherwise there would be no sense to play in fun mode at all. Anyway I was over the moon when I saw in fun mode that I have a huge profit. Always. The emphasis is on the always. 1 million profit in 1 hour. Always. I was absolutely crazy and I have deposited with them £3000 and I got £1000 bonus. AT the beginning I made from £4000 , £3800 bonus. But then I saw already that this is different. The payout rate is different, since we have the progressive jackpot which makes the difference, however It cannot make such a difference. Plus I have tested every game, and even if you have jackpot in fun mode or not, you are not able to make 1 million dollar profit, always in fun mode. So long story short. Eventually I have lost all of my money, and I have fulfilled the 90% of my wagering requirement. When I had £3179 I have requested a call back, and I was speaking with a manager. I have explained him my problem, but he refused politely. Well probably I could have expect that. He told me, that I should have known that there is a variation. Sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose. My problem is, that in fun mode I win, always. Not sometimes. Always. 100%. There is no variation. So this is a far from any variation and it is a serious breech of fairness and a serious fraud. I have reported this to the Gambling commission to the Guardian, and to the Gaming Lab too. Gaming Lab, they are testing the Random Number Generator software. Well this is not working here in fun mode. Something is very wrong with this game. In fun mode you almost always got 5 wild with Thor, and in real mode, almost never. Just one example. I will contact Alderney Gambling Commission too. I have attached the file, with the game description and with screenshot which shows my one million dollar balance. I can make it, always, at any time. The casino must rectify this serious problem, and refund me. If they wouldn't refund me, well I will survive, however, they did advertise this game, wrongly. In a very deceptive way. They must change the fun mode software and put a disclaimer, that the payout rate is extremely different in fun mode than in real mode. Regards Daniel
