Ignored Self Exclusion During Recent Ddos Attacks Led to loss of funds


4 years ago

On 5/19/22 I won a progressive slot jackpot on Slots.lv, on the slot "10 Times Vegas", for approximately $200,000 USD. Over the next day, I kept gambling and worked my balance up to $220,000. I recognized that I was gambling compulsively, and in order to protect my winnings, I tried to contact Slots.LV multiple times, for hours, via live chat. Per their self exclusion guidelines, they did not outline any specific medium with which to self exclude so I thought chat would be the most timely. I was never able to get through, I believe this is because customer service agents were busy dealing with fallout of the DDOS attacks occurring at the same time.

I then sent an email to Slots.LV later on 5/20/22, requesting my account be temporarily disabled until all my winnings were withdrawn, which the Dispute Resolution Office claims was never received, and then accused me of faking.

Over the next week, my account balance was drained. I am requesting that Slots.LV restore my balance to $200,000 USD, due to not honoring my self exclusion request. Even if the email was never received, it was impossible to get ahold of any customer service rep via chat to request this exclusion. Self exclusion should be simple, accessible, and should not be effected by other happenings at the casino.

Hello - Because my previous contact with Customer Service and the Dispute Resolution Office got me nowhere on my own' I filed a formal complaint with CEG (Slots.LV Master License Holder) They have started the Alternative Dispute Resolution Process, but still no contact from Slots.lv. As such, this matter has not been resolved.

Account disabled after withdrawal and verification delays despite multiple submissions
My account with Slots.lv has been disabled since February 14, immediately after my $950.78 withdrawal was declined without any explanation. Since that moment, I have complied with every request, submitted every document multiple times, and followed every instruction given to me. Despite this, Slots.lv has provided no meaningful update, no timeline, and no justification for the ongoing delay.

Verification Submissions (Documented and Confirmed):
• February 14: First full submission (ID front/back, ID selfie, proof of address)
• February 14: Two follow‑ups asking if documents were received
• February 24: Second submission / follow‑up with attachments
• February 27: Third submission implied (casino confirms documents under review)
• March 5: Fourth submission (explicit resubmission of all documents)
• March 6: Fifth submission (attachments included again)

Every submission was clear, full‑page, and fully legible. There is no reasonable basis for claiming otherwise.

Despite this, I continued receiving repetitive, generic responses stating that my account was “under review,” with no explanation for why the review was taking weeks instead of the 24–48 hours repeatedly promised by Slots.lv.

On March 6, Slots.lv Financial Services confirmed that my documents were received and forwarded to their Security Team. No reason was provided for this escalation, no details were offered, and no timeline was given. My account has now been disabled for weeks with no transparency and no progress.

For context, I am a verified player on multiple major platforms, including VIP‑level accounts elsewhere, such as BVX (invite‑only). I have never experienced verification delays anywhere close to this length on any other site. The issue here is not my documentation — it is the casino’s lack of communication and failure to follow its own stated timeframes.

Slots.lv declined my withdrawal, disabled my account immediately afterward, and has since provided nothing but vague, repetitive messages. This is not standard practice, and it is not acceptable.

Requested Resolution:
• Completion of the verification/security review
• Restoration of my account access
• Reprocessing of my $950.78 withdrawal
• Release of any eligible funds

I have cooperated fully and repeatedly. At this point, I am requesting AskGamblers’ assistance because Slots.lv has failed to provide any reasonable explanation or resolution despite multiple submissions and multiple follow‑ups over several weeks.
