Denying payment after confirming it was issued


On 3/19, I won a total of $30,000 on Prism Casino from slot Lucha Libre. A $25,000 withdrawal was approved and I played the remaining $5,000. the winning was acknowledged via Live Chats and email from Prism's "VIP manager" and it was confirmed that the payment was issued via Live Chat. After not seeing the payment in my bank account, I emailed the "VIP manager" and was told that I was never entitled to the winning and never told that I would be receiving a payment.

AskGamblers Complaints Team believes the explanation and proof presented on behalf Prism Casino management to be well grounded and to justify the casino actions in this particular case. Without any doubt, a player was informed in the first chat prior claiming a bonus, that maximum cashout is applied for a particular bonus. And that maximum cashout is a 3x bonus which in this case is 1305$, and that the rest of the winnings will be voided. After all, casino made an exception and in the last mail offered to pay to the player winnings, even player played off the rest of her winnings.


Based on the above, AskGamblers Complaints Team consider this case as Resolved and it is now officially closed. In a case of a disagreement with our decision we remind the player that further assistance on this matter could be requested from the relevant licensing authority responsible for Prism Casino.

Had I known that you were going to be copy/pasting email conversations that I was part of, so obviously, I've already seen, I would have spared you the frustration by simply forwarding it all to you; it would have saved you 9 hours and 55 minutes. Don't feel silly. Lesson learned and now you know for the next time. By the end of today, I'll post screenshots of the emails so they can be seen in their entirety, along with other correspondences that you were apparently unable to unearth in 10 hour's time.

Your next email to Ryan was sent April 9th:

“Can you tell me where the $25,000 went? Why was it removed from my account?

-Anna”

When Ryan returned to work on April 11th (following the weekend off), he responded:

“I have explained this many times, the $25000 were not cashable and they were removed from the account balance leaving only the allowed amount to cashout. Then you canceled it and played it all off. I am offering you a ONE TIME exception to still pay you the $1305 allowed by the chip where the winnings came from, please advise in order to process the request.

Have a good day.”

Which leaves us with your most recent email, received May 3rd:

“I have been advised by Dispute Resolutions at CDS Corporation to request the $25,000.00 payment owed to me, once more; if payment doesn't materialize from this request, CDS will be stepping in on my behalf.

Please issue payment immediately.

Thank you,

Anna xxxx”

Anna—I will re-state what has been told to you dozens of times now: We will NOT be issuing payment in the amount of $25,000. The terms of the bonus was 3x max cash-out of the bonus issued.

You were NEVER told your withdrawal was approved. The only bit you had to latch on to was Ivan’s live chat, which was so obviously incorrect. Further, there was never any reason to approve your withdrawal in the amount of $25,000.

We absolutely welcome you to open a claim with Central Disputes—we are an open book with this. In my opinion, you’re simply grasping at straws and CDS is truly the last straw to grasp.

I sincerely hope this will conclude this issue.

In reply to your email, April 5th, Ryan emailed back (same day) with the following:

“Hello again,

Be advised that after another thorough review by upper management, we came to fund (sp – should be ‘find’) that in fact you did play the remaining monies you were entitled to after the excess none cashable money as per the chip rules were removed. I am sorry to say there nothing I can do to help you here.”

A few hours after you received that email from Ryan, you sent a reply. This reply was simply the screenshot of the live chat you’d had with Ivan—the chat which was in no way confirmation of an approved withdrawal.

Minutes after you sent that email, Ryan replied back to you:

“Be advised that I was not able to find any email correspondence on which I confirm any withdrawal being approved and much less paid to you, this could not have happened and to the date the documentation has not even been completed for us to proceed with a payment.

As I stated after the access (sp—should be ‘excess’) monies were removed and the entitled amount left the history shows you canceling and playing it off leaving no withdrawal to be processed, I’m sorry you feel that way but I suggested you keep better track of your account.”

The point Ryan made in this is key: When a withdrawal is approved, an email is automatically generated informing players of the approval. No such email was ever generated, as there was NEVER an approved withdrawal.

On April 7, Ryan made a last-ditch effort to keep a good relationship with you by contacting you by email:

“Good afternoon Anna,

Be advised that as per management at no point on the chat you sent nor any other form of communication where you told a $25,000 withdrawal was approved, you assumed the amount and the only mistake by the individual you spoke to was not to correct you.

None the less, you did play down you winnings remaining. I am willing to make an exception and allow you to cash out the 1305usd you were entitled to as per the chip rules, nothing more.

Please advised in order to process your request, have a nice day!”

Less than two hours later, you responded with the following:

“A complaint has been filed.

-Anna”

In response (later that same day), Ryan emailed the following to you:

“If its ok to ask, with who would you even file complaint? Sorry you feel that way and it has to come down to this, yet only players who are unable to comprehend that the site rules follows this path. I will inform management as well that you have refused the offer of an exception cashout.

If you change your mind please let me know. Have a good evening.”

Denied fair winnings and deposit

I redeemed a no deposit bonus. On my end it said that the playthrough was complete and I could withdraw. I went to the casino’s customer service to verify if my playthrough was complete, that my winnings were valid and that I am able to withdraw. They said I just needed to make a $10 deposit in order to verify my account to withdraw. Before doing so, I asked support that if there was anything wrong with my winnings I get my deposit back. They said as long as I don’t play with them yes. I then made my deposit to withdraw my winnings and now it keeps getting rejected. Only now after I make my deposit that customer service sees that my playthrough isn’t complete. I would have never made the deposit unless on two separate occasions I was told that my playthrough was complete and also that I would get a refund if there were any issues. I understand the inaccurate play through is a technical issue and I still need to play more for my winnings to be valid. But now they are also telling me that they won’t give back my refund. I am so angry because I was lied two twice. First for saying my playthrough was complete and I can withdraw after the deposit and second that I will get my refund back if any issues. I have saved all the transcripts from customer service to show that they tell me everything is ok, I just need to make a deposit and will get refunded if any issues, then they told me they found errors and won’t give my refund only AFTER I MADE MY DEPOSIT. If this isn’t a scam that I don’t know what is. I don’t care about the playthrough and don’t care about my winnings. I just want my deposit back. I was told I would get it back if there were issues and now you guys are holding onto it. STAY AWAY FROM THIS CASINO

Delaying payment 800 USD although being verified

I made a deposit using my debit card and did not use a bonus with my deposit. On November 28, 2023, I requested to withdraw my $700 in winnings. My ID was already verified, however, I had to verify my debit card before I could complete the request. I immediately submitted my card information for verification. The verification was processed the same day. My account was fully verified and I requested the withdrawal to be paid to my Bitcoin account.

Due to past experiences with withdrawal requests, I decided I should check in after a few days just to confirm they had all of my required documents. On December 2, 2023, I messaged their chat line and was told by a representative that my debit card wasn't verified, and I needed to email a copy of my debit card, and I would receive a confirmation/case number in a couple of hours after sending the email. Even though my account was showing approved and verified, I submitted my card information via email as requested.

I never received a response with a confirmation number. Therefore, on December 6, 2023, I checked in again with a chat representative. This time I was told to submit all my banking information, in case they couldn’t pay me using Bitcoin. So on December 6th, I submitted all my banking information as requested. Once again, never received any confirmation or response.

Two days later, which is today, I again contacted a chat representative. This time I was asked to confirm my Bitcoin address, which I did. After giving my Bitcoin address, I was told it would be sent to the payments department so they could process my request. I explained to her they already had my Bitcoin information, I sent it with my original withdrawal request. The information was required at the time I requested the withdrawal because that was the method I wanted to receive my payment.

I feel like they keep requesting the same thing from me even though it has been sent to them and my account is fully verified and approved.

Thank you,
