Complaint #6 Lion Slots Casino

Won't pay in Bitcoin, again

By Jason O.

7 years ago

For the second time, after I win at lion casino and try to cash out, I am told their bitcoin service is unavailable and is not an option and I will have to resubmit with bank wire transfer. My bank does not do international wire transfers. After many emails in which they repeatedly told me to use bank wire or I should open a new account at a bank that does accept wire transfer, I feel I have no recourse but to come here. Ironically this exact same thing happened last month but as soon as I came here they had no problem paying me immediately.In BITCOIN. Had I known that they STILL wouldn't pay in bitcoin I never would have played there. I offered them to just refund what I have deposited this month which is also $200 or pay me in bitcoin. And I haven't heard from them since. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello and yes, I have received payment. It's unfortunate that both times I have won and requested payment, lion slots bitcoin network is not working. It really makes me consider if I will play there anymore. But I do thank you for finding a way to take care of me. This complaint can be closed. Much thanks to askgamblers.com once again. You are the best.

6k Bitcoin withdrawal since January 6th

This is about Lion Slots casino. I deposited I believe it was $70 on January 11th. I didn't use any coupons restricting my deposit winnings. I won $6,000 and requested it withdrawal by Bitcoin. The deposit was supposed to take 2 to 3 days to process. I have been verified with Lion slots for a very long time. Even before they changed platforms, I even email to verify that there was nothing holding up by withdrawal.

After waiting some days, I received an email on the 16th trying to convince me to cancel my withdrawal and switch my withdrawal method to money card, promising additional coupons if I did so. I refused because I had already waited and I was not about to start the withdrawal process all over again.

After refusing, I expected my withdrawal to be processed in the next 24 to 48 hours. I waited a couple of days and when I didn't see the withdrawal I contacted them again. I was told they were having maintenance with their Bitcoin processor and they couldn't give me a time or date when I would receive my cash out.

I pointed out that they were still accepting deposits via Bitcoin. They claimed one didn't have anything to do with the other. After a bunch of back and forth emails, I asked if changing my withdrawal method would reset the clock. I was told that yes it was would and I'll be looking at about at least another seven business days for them to process the withdrawal with another payment method.

They have given me no time frame on when my withdrawal will be processed and have basically said they will pay when they pay.

I have screenshots of all the emails back and forth.

Lion slots casino stopped operating in India but before close I had balance of 100gbp

I had balance of 100gbp and suddenly casino closed its operations in India. So when I contacted casino didn't get a reply. Kindly help in resolving the issue as I couldn't get screenshot of balance after location discontinuation. They didn't inform regarding the closure in email.

I tried contacting the casino help many times but didn't get a positive reply and instead they blocked the account.

Withdrawal not done as casino support is twisting truth after verification deposit

I got 20$ free chip and played through the wagering requirement of 60X and made a withdrawal of 100Pound and casino support asked me submit documents and asked for 25$ verification deposit. I submitted the documents and made the verification deposit of 26.30$. After I made the verification deposit casino support is denying withdrawal as they need 25 in pounds not in dollars but in all of their email communication it was 25$ and I even confirmed thrice with casino support whether its dollar or pound and they confirmed its dollars. But after deposit was made they twisted the truth and they cancelled the agreement and asking me again to redo verification deposit of 25pounds which is basically cheating after deposit. I made deposit of 0.0004987 bitcoin which equals 26$ but now they nullified the deposit and again making to deposit 25pounds from scratch.

Lied to me regarding Bitcoin withdrawals

I received a free spin bonus from lion slots on October 31 which I played and won $300 after play through.
Of course the max withdrawal was $100 which was fine so I requested the 100 in bitcoin.
I received an email congratulating me but also said I needed to make a "verification" deposit in bitcoin to proceed with the WD.
Ok. A few days later I had purchased some bitcoin and after several attempts,and many fees,deposited $25 in bitcoin and played through it.
I received another email saying I could now submit my WD as I had met their requirements(see attached) so I did. That was on Nov 6. They say there is a 24hr hold during which I can reverse the request. I didnt.
Today Nov 8th I talked to live chat to see how long the wait is on a bitcoin WD and was told they weren't doing bitcoin. WHAT??
While verifying my documents we had sent several emails back and forth, and each one of them stated that I MUST make a bitcoin deposit to proceed with my withdrawal.
Their only other WD option is wire transfer but my bank does NOT do international wire transfers.
They claim in live chat and by email that they told me bitcoin was not an option and that is a complete lie. I was told repeatedly that I MUST deposit with bitcoin as recently as 2 days ago. If I had known bitcoin was not an option i NEVER would have played there as wire transfer is not possible for me.
I have all their emails available, clearly stating the necessity of depositing $25 in bitcoin for verification.
I followed all of their rules...did exactly as they said...my documents are approved and now I can't be paid. I also deposited $25 cash along with the bitcoin.
I feel like this is very shady business tactics and I want to be paid what I won or at the very least a refund of the 25$ and 25$ bitcoin I spent not knowing I could not withdraw.
Thank you for any help you can give.

Delaying payout

I requested a wd on the july 30. I was told that I may or may not have to submit docs and the payout was processed in 2-5 days. Finally on 8/2 I ask them about my docs and payout. They had some problems, so they say, in getting the docs to me. So I had to create a gmail account and find the auth form in the spam folder. I filled it out and sent all required info to them. They say they did not get them until the 3rd and takes 2 days to process. Ok I gave then that. Today is day 3. Now they tell me they are having some delay just processing my docs and they have not even started on my wd. I think they are delibertly doing this because I did voice my opinon about how they are lying to people about there payout procedures and demaned they process my docs and pay me!!! Can you help me? Thank you for your help.
