Unjustified account block and withheld funds again


Dear AskGamblers Team,

I am requesting your support once again regarding Heats Casino. About a month ago, I decided to give them a second chance, and unfortunately, it appears that was a mistake — they have blocked my account and frozen my funds once again. To make matters worse, they have not responded to any of my inquiries since.

On April 27, I made a deposit of €1,000, taking advantage of their 150% deposit bonus offer. At Heats Casino, there are two separate wallets for player funds: one for real money and one for bonus funds. Players begin wagering with their real money first and can only use the bonus funds once their real balance is depleted.

I received €1,500 in bonus funds and started playing, primarily on Plinko. I got lucky, and by the time I completed the bonus wagering requirements, my real money balance exceeded €1,500. At that point, the €1,500 bonus was converted to €1,000 in real funds, as that was the maximum bonus cashout amount. I continued playing briefly and stopped once my balance reached exactly €2,500. I then submitted a €1,000 withdrawal request — the daily maximum, despite the AskGamblers casino review stating a €10,000 limit — and received the funds instantly.

However, the following day, April 28, I discovered my account had been blocked. When attempting to log in, I received an error message instructing me to contact support for more information. I reached out to live support, who told me to send an email instead.

As requested, I sent them an email on April 28. Over three weeks have passed since, and I have yet to receive any response.

Oddly, on April 29, I received a reply in a previous live support thread — not regarding the issue, but to invite me to Heats Casino’s “Special VIP group.” This message came from Daniel, who introduced himself as my VIP manager. I responded and asked Daniel for assistance, but received no reply.

On April 30, I sent a follow-up email — again, with no response.

Later that same day, I contacted live support and asked how long I should expect to wait for a reply. I was told I would be contacted "soon."

After receiving no further communication, I sent a second follow-up email on May 7, which was also ignored.

Finally, on May 10, I contacted live support once more. They simply repeated that I would receive a reply "soon."

It has now been more than three weeks, and at this point, it seems clear that they do not intend to respond. My account remains blocked, and my €1,500 real balance is still being withheld without any justification.

The last time I had an issue with Heats Casino — nearly six months ago — they at least provided a reason for blocking my funds. It was an unfounded reason, of course, and thanks to AskGamblers’ mediation, the case was reevaluated and the funds were returned. Unfortunately, it seems the situation has only worsened since then: now they don’t even offer a reason. They simply block the account, freeze the funds, and ignore the player entirely.

I respectfully request your assistance once again in contacting the casino. I am asking them to provide a proper justification for blocking my account and freezing my funds. If they cannot do so, as I have not violated any of their terms, I request that my account be reinstated and my funds made available for withdrawal.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

Manfred

Dear AskGamblers,

I’m writing to confirm that Heats Casino has reactivated my account, and I was able to withdraw the full balance of €1,500. The funds have successfully arrived.

With this, all previously blocked funds have been withdrawn. I consider the matter fully settled and the issue resolved.

Thank you to AskGamblers for providing a platform to facilitate communication, and to the Heats Casino team for their cooperation in resolving this matter.

Best regards,
Gabor

Dear AskGamblers,

Thank you for reopening the case. I requested this in order to provide an update on recent developments regarding the situation.

Following the previous unresolved status of this complaint, I was contacted by Heats Casino on June 1st, who initially offered me a partial refund in relation to the frozen funds on my account. I declined the offer, stating that I expect either a full return of my remaining €1,500 real balance or a clear and legitimate justification for the confiscation of those funds.

Eventually, Heats Casino agreed to credit the full amount (€1,500), but only after I formally withdrew the complaint. I reiterated that I cannot mark the issue as resolved until the funds are actually paid.

Later, they revised their offer and proposed a compromise: they would release €750 immediately upon the reopening of the complaint, with the remaining €750 to be paid once the complaint is formally closed. They added that if the second payment was not completed, I would have the right to reopen the complaint.

While I do not question their intention to fulfill the full payment, I made it clear that I believe it's only fair to reflect the actual progress of the situation in the AskGamblers complaint. I expressed my willingness to update the case after each portion of the payment is successfully received, and to mark it as resolved once the full amount has been credited and withdrawn.

Now that the complaint has been reopened, I have informed Heats Casino accordingly and am currently awaiting their response regarding the next step.

I will provide further updates here as the situation progresses.

Best regards,
Manfred

Heats Casino - Withdrawal fees increased to fifty percent after big wins
Dear AskGamblers team,

I’m submitting this complaint due to what I believe to be unethical and potentially manipulative behavior by this online casino regarding withdrawal fees, particularly tied to my recent success in winning larger amounts.

When I first started playing, everything seemed to be in order. Withdrawals were processed with a 1.5% fee, which I found acceptable. However, once I began winning more and attempted to withdraw, the situation drastically changed. The withdrawal fees were suddenly and inexplicably increased, and I ended up paying more than €4,000 in fees alone (between 3 March and 11 March 2025) , using USDT-TRC20.

Let me emphasize: USDT on the TRC20 network typically has negligible transaction fees, often less than a dollar per transaction. Charging nearly 50% of my withdrawal amount in “fees” is not just disproportionate—it’s completely unjustifiable.

This abrupt increase in fees appears to have started only when I began withdrawing larger amounts, which raises serious concerns. It strongly gives the impression that the casino is penalizing me for winning, a practice that is both unethical and illegal.

When I contacted customer support, they simply stated that "nothing can be done," without providing any explanation or detailed breakdown of these outrageous charges. This lack of transparency and accountability is unacceptable.

What’s even more alarming—and the reason I’m filing this complaint now—is that I realized how easily things could have been worse. If I hadn’t acted quickly to withdraw the remaining balance, they could have frozen or closed my account entirely, leaving me with a total loss of €8,500. That thought alone is frightening, and it’s what prompted me to immediately document and report what happened.

I have now withdrawn all my funds and will not be returning to this platform. However, I am requesting a full reimbursement of the €4,000+ that was unjustifiably taken in so-called withdrawal fees. This is not a request for a bonus or goodwill payment—this is about recovering my own money that was taken under conditions I was never made aware of.

I urge AskGamblers to look into this case, obtain a detailed fee explanation from the casino, and mediate a fair and honest resolution. No casino should punish players for winning. This behavior not only damages player trust but also reflects poorly on the industry as a whole.

Thank you for your support and assistance.

Not verifying my profile

Hello.

I registered in heatscasino 10 days ago. I won some amount of money and I sent documents for verification.

The support was nice at the beginning and told me that they will escalate the documents to the relevant team for faster review and then it begins.

aon the verification page it says that the verification couls take up to 48 hours, so I waited. After 72 hours with no update I contacted the support to ask what's going on. They replied me that there is high volume of verifications and I will get update. So I waited 24 more hours - still without update. The answer was the same as the previous one.

So basically I attached the documents not this Friday but previous one (14.03.2025). I contacted again on Thursday (20.03.2025) to ask what's happening and why they don't verify my profile - guess what - same answer as the 1st one. So on 21.03 I received an update that my ID is verified but my selfie is rejected and I needed to re-upload the right one. So today we are 26.03.2025 and my profile is still not verified and I cannot request a withdrawal. I contacted again of course and I'm getting the same answers over and over again.

I had never so bad experience in any other casino.Basically of you win some significant amount of money, this casino will delay you as much as it can, so most probably you can lose the won amount of money.

I'm asking here vouls you please help me, since I registered to this casino through askgamblers.com... I can provide you with the chat conversations if needed.
