Complaint #10 VegasBerry Casino

Refused closing my account, overcharging on every deposit, terrible customer service

Message on forum

Firstly, I deposited £1000 in a series of deposits which I lost. Checked my bank statement and every deposit I made was overcharged as they deceptively use a voucher system, even though I chose the visa option. So this amounted to nearly £100 in extra charges. No mention in the terms and conditions. I emailed the customer service, asked for a refund and self exclusion as I have a problem controlling my gambling. Finally got a reply saying it was a payment error which they would resolve, and refunded me £70 to my casino account, as a bonus not cash.They ignored my exclusion request. I stupidly logged in the next day, and lost another £700 + extra charges again which they cclearly haven't resolved. Emailed them again twice, no reply, account still open, obviously hoping I'd deposit. Luckily someone on live chat agreed to exclude me despite being told the day before they couldn't exclude over chat and it had to be emailed. Overall a scam of a casino, terrible customer service, no player controls, and deceptively taking extra money. I ask for a refund of the £700 and the extra charges.

They have refunded me, however I am not happy. They agreed to refund £750, however I received £730. When I questioned why, they said it was due to the my bank charging to receive the transfer. However in my opinion, if you are going to send a specific amount to someone in their currency, it is for the sender to ensure they make the correct payment in their currency to cover charges and fees etc. I asked them to transfer the remaining £20 and they declined. I asked what happens when someone wins £100 on their site, does the person only receive £95? They ignored my question. So this can be closed, however I would advise people to avoid this casino.

Changing rules after withdrawal request

I deposited on 11th january 150euros and got deposit bonus. The bonus had usual wagering and I finished it. When I wagered bonus I played 2 slots and I checked on same day what slots are not allowed. Go bananas was not forbidden. I won 3560euros. The casino changed bonus rules after I wagered bonus and after I requested withdraw. Now they removed all winnings for breaking rules because I played go bananas slot.

Go bananas was not forbidden when I played, they added it afterwards. Bing cached page still has page saved and it has NO go bananas forbidden.

Please go to bing cached page and check for yourself.

Delaying payment and not being honest

Hello Askgamblers and Vegasberry casino

My Issue is that im not getting my withdrawal and isnt getting any information from the casino.

I did a withdrawal with using mastercard to withdrawal that was my option to withdrawal with. and contacted the support and got my account verfied and got this as a replay from them :
Hello Emil,

thank you for your email.

We are happy to inform you that your account is now verified.

Please standby for further contact regarding your withdrawal, you will receive an automatic email once it is processed.

Should you have any further concerns, questions or comments, don’t hesitate to contact our 24/7 customer service.

Sincerely,

Then they are saying they are handeling all withdrawals in 48 h . so when it have passed 72 h and several times asked the supportchat whats going on , i start to read more on the page and then its posted i cant withdrawal with mastercard , but it was still a option for me to withdrawal and the supportstaff have told ne several times that they have pushed the withdrawal with the financedepartment. But still i dont get any emails about i have the wrong withdrawal metheod that was my option when i did the withdrawal.

then after that i talked to the support and they are telling me to not cancel the withdrawal but ust wait.
then i contact the support again and emailed the [email protected] and asked them if i can use my skrillaccount insteed to withdrawal to. with out a replay from them . contact the support again and then get told from anouther person in support i need to cancel the withdrawal and start all over again and wait anouther 48 h. and they are telling me that they hope it would be resolved this weekend. then i open the support again a couple of hours later and asking them then i get told the finance department isnt working weekends. so i dont know what to do anymore with this site because last time i got to wait 72 h with out any information or get told i cant withdrawal with that methoed that was a option on their page to withdrawal with. It feels like this is a scam casino and i dont know what to do about it anymore . and how i would be able to get my money from them .

And next mail :

Dear < name removed >,

Just to answer your question, wagering is 35 times the Bonus amount (only), not the deposit + bonus amout. This is one of the changes we made for our VIP players. Furthermore I also contated my boss and arranged for you to raise the max bet to 10EUR since you asked for the highroller Bonus. I hope this answers your questions, but if you have any more feel free to let me know. I am here for you 24/7!

And next :

Dear < name removed >,

I will have to add the Bonus manualy, since this a VIP offer.

There are few Slot which are excluded from all Bonuses, like Scrooge, Devil's Delight, Bloodsuckers and Dead or Alive.

PS. VegasBerry is currently offline due to updates and maintanace, I can let you know when it's over and it comes back up.

Looking forward to see you in the VIP club!

So ok, I make deposit 400 Eur and < name removed > give me bonus 600!

BUT – < name removed > immediately write me, that he make bad bonus, because I have every 100 eur with 125x wagering!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But < name removed > assured me, that this no problem , and if I will have complet wagering 35x, 21000, so you make manualy withdraw!!!!!

Joe write me mail too :

It was my pleasure 

I have to say there was a mistake from our VIP manager that he added bonus with wrong promotion what is a mistake that can never happen in VIP club and we will make sure it will never happen again. It was simply human mistake on what we simply could not influance.

I really appretiate your understanig of this situation and I can make you assure that all your bets are being watched and monitored in order to do manually lookover of bonus restrictions that you received. Due to this situation I hope that you will understand situation that we have to manually calculate your bets and only few people have authorized access to do so never the less we will do our best in order have your data on hands as soon as you will finish your wagering requirement.

I wish you best of luck and hope to see a nice withdrawal from you soon 

Kind regards,

So I play, and < name removed > confirmed that I have complet wagering :

Hi < name removed >,

I would like to congratulate you on yor win. You have successfully completed your wagering requirement indeed.

Please, since this withdrawal can not be completed as usual and will have to be done manually from our side, can you send your verification documents on [email protected] and finance department will contact you as soon as possible (within 24 hours).

And cashier confirmed my documents :

Dear < name removed >,

Thank you for sending us your documents.

We have received and confirmed the requested documents.

In order any winnings to be paid to you you have to create a withdrawal request. You will be able to do that once the bonus wagering is completed.

Please contact our friendly support if you have any further questions.

LAST MAIL FROM CASHIER :

Dear < name removed >,

Thank you for your email.

As you already have been informed you cannot make a withdrawal request because you have an active bonus. Once the wagering is completed you will be able to withdraw. Unfortunately because of the active bonus we cannot create a request instead of you too. Please contact our friendly chat support for more information.

Kind regards

No Payment!

I have requested a withdrawal of 1000 Euro on 02.02.2016. My account was already verified at this moment. According to their terms and conditions processing of a withdrawal may take up two business days. On 05.02.2016 I asked the support about my withdrawal and the prompt answer was that it will be processed today. Of course this did not happen ... The last reply I got from the support was "as soon as possible", the withdrawal is still pending. Unfortunately I belived them, means that currently I have no money and I am in serious problems because of that. Doing some research showed me that this delayed payments are a common issue with them.
