Payout Problem..please help


With much regret, i post this complaint on this forum. Up until now, I have had no issues with this casino, and have been overall quite pleased. A month ago, I cashed out at Gossip (their sister casino) and i received the bank wire within 4 days and was very very pleased. I just recently cashed out at Drake and its been eleven days and still no money. The only option I have is to request a bank wire which the casino charges $60 for. I started asking support to check on things about six days ago and I was told, its on its way no problem. Today i went into live chat and asked to speak to a supervisor, and was told sorry none available. They did agree to send their "broker" a memo to ask that it be checked on. But again they cannot say when someone will get back to me and i still dont feel satisfied that anyone is looking into this for me. The problem i have is this: Noone can tell me why a bank wire takes 10 days..(thats how long they say it takes) like i said earlier i received one in four days from them last month. I also want a commitment from them as to when someone will get back to me. Right now I am just hanging without any resolution. The amount of my payout was only 800. It was not a large one. I would like to know where my money is, why it takes so long and when will i have the credit in my bank account.
Could you imagine if it took us this long to have them actually receive our deposits? Overall I do like this casino but i think that their resolution process is flawed and we should be able to get more immediate information when we have a problem such as this. What am i paying $60 for anyway? If anything they should refund that fee because it was handled so poorly.

I'm really glad we could get this resolved for you! I'm sorry it took so long. We are working to improve our service offering and working to make our managers more accessible. Thanks again for playing with Drake, I'm glad you got the $700 - we really appreciate your membership.

Well, I just got back from picking up 700$ at the western union agent. Thanks so much for taking care of this.
I am very pleased and am going to force myself to not put it all back in < smile >

Jay, no need to work on this right now. Yesterday I was told that they broker still could not locate the money however management was willing to make a one time concession and send me 700$ via western union. I was told that 700$ was the most i could now receive and that 100$ would need to go back as a credit into my account. I probably could've attempted a withdraw of it but with a 60$ fee, I would have only received 40$ so of course i played it and lost..oh well...I want to say something here, I can say that I honestly feel that Drake Casino was trying to do what they could to try to fix this problem. I don't feel there was anything dishonest going on. The system that you must work within seems to eliminate any chance of fast resolutions due to having third parties involved etc..and it doesn't help when a manager seems impossible to reach. That being said i am now waiting for the details to allow me to pick up the 700$. That apparently takes 78 hours. I will wait. Am crossing my fingers that this goes through but I am remaining optimistic that it will. I thank you for your assistance.

I'm very sorry for the late reply here. I did not understand this issue was reopened, I thought it was an error on the system part.

I have forwarded it onto our Call Center Managers to review today and will update this thread later today.

Apologies for the delay,
Jay

Deliberately dragging their feet for weeks on a $1,120 withdrawal

Ok first if all Id like to say that I love online gambling. I probably gamble on at least 150+ different sites. I'm very familiar with their guidelines for verifying identity and withdrawal processes. But, when you know without a shadow of a doubt that one is operating outside of the legal guidelines then it's something that people need to be aware of. With that being said, I have cashed out thousands of dollars from many many online casinos and there appears to be some red tape from time to time with them here and there. However, most casinos are simply wanting a piece of information to close the issue do they can begin the withdrawal process for you. Now, Drake Casino on the other hand tried every single thing they could try to come up with to avoid letting me receive $1,120.00 of winnings I earned. I mean they gave me the runaround and lied to me so many times that it was insane. Too many issues and lies to even count. They would say that they just needed this one more thing and the money would be transferred at least 20 different times. I'd fulfill the document request and they would approve it and then try n come up with something else. They had told me every day that my money would be there today for over 3 weeks. Then after that 3 weeks if lying to me every day they sent me an email saying they had just bank wired it and to give it at least 12 full business days before I consider it late. I had big plans for that money for me and my 3 son's that I raise all by myself. I wanted to show them a really great weekend and buy them some things they liked as well. Unfortunately, I've had to put off that great weekend over 3 times to them and watched their faces be sad for all those 3 weekends. My heart goes out to these little guys cuz they have patiently waited as much as they can and I know it's breaking their hearts. I believe the Drake Casino may be drawing quite a bit of interest off of people's money by the longer they can hold onto it. I know many places do but when it is owed legitimately by a paying customer who jumped every hoop on top of working hard to win in the first place, it's time to pay up! Because of this matter, I got ahold of the gaming Commisioner in hopes of possibly someone investigating this matter but he informed me that they weren't really taking complaints and he has just got into the position so it would be quite sometime before they even considered it. So, as I sit here on yet my 4th Saturday of the 4th weekend awaiting still for this bank wire if $1120. That I may never get , I want people to know about Drake Casino and their poor poor customer service on withdrawals so that it might not ever happen to them. My advice is simply this, do not use your hard earned money on Drake Casino! You will be forever sorry and be unhappy with the return of it. They are very dishonest and scandalous , not to mention greedy and disrespectful to the hardworking middle class American!!! Ty

Giving me the runaround with a $100 withdrawal

So basically i won a free entry tournament, ($500) and i was told i can only withdraw $100 because i have never deposited.

So i read the terms & conditions under the tournament description, and it states “max withdrawals for nondeposit players is $160”

So i then contact them vis email and ask why i can only withdraw $100, and they explained that $40 is for the wire transfer fee.

Okay, so then i asked what about the other $20?

And the rep said $60 is the old fee, it is now $40. So basically i cant withdraw $120. And shes going to look into the error on their website and fix $160 to $140.

I feel like i should get $120. Not my fault there was an error.

So anyways, since i never deposited in the past, my only option for a withdrawal is bank transfer.

Max wait time to receive a withdrawal via bank wire is “12 business days”

I got an email on April 27,2020 saying my withdrawal was processed.

It is now May 15, 2020, and day 15, and earlier today i was told i was going to get it “supposedly today or tomorrow” - said by the rep on live chat.

(By the way, i had to deposit today to even get access to the live chat feature, so i can ask about my withdrawal)

Bank wires dont get processed on weekends. So what the heck!

Its only $100 . I SHOULD be getting $120 to be honest.

12 days is long enough. And now the weekend is here and im pretty sure i still wont get anything from Drake Casino on Monday.

Worst withdrawal ive had thus far in my online casino experiences.
