Waited more than 3 months for withdrawal


2 years ago
Waited more than three months for my withdrawal. Support keeps saying they understand my frustration, but that the withdrawal is under review by a different department. They cannot provide a time frame. The account was verified early in the process, and I have provided all documents requested. All winnings are from wagering real money, not bonuses. Amount for withdrawal is above €23.000.

Dear AskGamblers,

I would like to thank you for assisting me in this case, so that a fair outcome can be reached (hopefully).

To my understanding, the casino removed all my money as their comprehensive review suggested that my winnings came from money I should not have had in my account. They argued this by claiming I had exceeded their daily max net profit limit on the 24th of April, followed by a huge net loss the following day.

My response to this was that their review cannot have been based on actual reality.

To provide a better overview, and as supportive evidence, I have attached pictures from the excel sheet sent from Sonsofslots. They show all transactions in my account (with real money) from the time of opening the account until 6th of July 2023.

In these pictures, I have removed irrelevant columns in order to fit all columns into each picture.

Furthermore, I have added a column (column N) where I calculate the net profit of each single bet (winning - stake). Each calculation can easily be tracked back to the original time of bet placement and time of settlement. The unique Game Trans Id from column H makes it easy to match bet and settlement of bet. For example, I placed a bet 17-04-2023 20:38:02 with Game Trans Id 1586543471 (row 107). This bet settled as a loss 17-04-2023 22:45:01 (with the same Game Trans Id 1586543471 on row 106).
"GAME_BET" are bets placed, and "GAME_WIN" are settlement of bet (win or loss).

I have also added a column (column O) where I sum each daily net profits/loss. It is just a sum of the net profits/losses of each single transaction for each calendar date. See column N. This sum is very relevant as Sonsofslots have the max €5000 net profit per day. I have also separated each day with a thick line, to make it easier to track each single day. And a double line under each cell summing the daily net profit/loss.

In addition, I have checked that all my calculations are correct, by summing the net profits/losses of all relevant days, and adding the total deposits made to the account. As you can see, the sum of these add up to the actual balance as of 6th of July. (On the right to column O in picture 1, see calculations in column Q). Hence, the daily net profit calculations must be correct.

Please note that I have added pictures also showing the formulas I have used for my calculations (pictures 4-6), to maintain transparency and make it easier to check my calculations. Therefore, picture 1-3 show all transactions, and pictures 4-6 show the formulas I used for the calculations in columns N, O and Q.

Importantly, this provides evidence that the highest net profit within one day was €3.712,17 on the 30th of April. This is well within the max limit that Sonsofslots operates with. In my previous reply, I too made a wrong calculation, as I wrote that net profits was €6.310 on the 24th of April. However, I forgot to reduce this amount by the stakes of my winning bets (i.e. I used the amount "paid" to my account, rather than the net amount after deducting the corresponding stake). In fact, the net profit on this day was no more than €2.131,6.

I apologise for the long description, however I think it is important to show that the casino has indeed made an error here.

I have now received the statement from the casino.

Sons of Slots initial response was the following:
"We would like to inform you that the relevant department has completed the review process of your account, the amount of 22935.34€ has been removed and your account has been closed indefinitely due to the following terms of our Terms & Conditions:

2.5.7 The maximum net winnings, based on licensee liability, in any 24-hour period per account are limited to 5000€."

And the following explanation:
"Kindly note that on the 23rd of April your net winnings were 7792€ while your losses the next day were 6310€, meaning your losses exceeded your actual balance.
Since all further activity was the result of invalid winnings, the total amount is therefore invalid."

Second, I have studied my history in detail to see if what they claim is true. I did in fact have not have net winnings of €7792 on April 23rd. My calculations says €6.131,6, as I also had two losing bets of €968 and 692,4 that Sons of Slots seems to have neglected when they calculated my net profits for that day.

Furthermore, the claim my net loss on the 24th of April was €6.310. In fact, I made bets for this amount exactly, but they were all settled (mainly as winning bets) later. Hence, my net loss on the 24th of April was €0.

I therefore challenge the casino to look over this again, as it is clearly based on the wrong reality.

Casino is refusing to Pay

Sons of Slots continues to cancel my withdrawal requests and refuses to pay my money. I’ve been registered in this casino for some months and have done some deposits and withdrawals in the past. However, the casino has now refused to pay a new withdrawal for 3 weeks, always coming up with a new excuse.

I requested my first withdrawal on January 29th, which was cancelled by the casino. In the past I already provided them with my ID, proof of address and proof of payment, so the account was fully verified and as I mentioned, I already received withdrawals in the past. Nevertheless, they cancelled my request and told me I needed to provide a document proving the ownership of my phone number, which I found a very odd request…

Still, I took the time to go to my mobile operator store and get a document, I provided it to them. They refused it… This process was kind of a joke to be honest, as they declined this document and sent me an email saying that, if my mobile number was pre-paid (which I already mentioned it was in a previous email), then I needed to submit a print screen from my operator’s site. I provided them with the print screen and they refused it, saying that they didn’t accept print screens. It was a joke, I had to send them a print screen of their previous email and after a lot of fight, they finally accepted my document to verify the phone number on February 3rd.

So, I had the document approved on February 3rd, which was the reason my withdrawal was being cancelled by their side. I then asked for a new withdrawal and they told me it would be approved in up to 48 hours, which of course, it wasn’t. I sent them emails almost every day after the 48 hours passed, but they just kept saying it was still being processed and I had to wait.

Then, on February 14th they told me that they decided to cancel my request once again and disable the withdrawal option from my account. This seems completely illegal to me, to be honest, they basically don’t allow me to request a withdrawal of my money but allow me both to deposit and gamble. I’m sure there are some responsible gambling rules they must abide by since they are “regulated” by MGA.

We are now at this point, they disabled this option, cancelled my withdrawal again and say that they are running some more reviews of my account. There is no timeframe, they just keep refusing the pay and coming up with new excuses for this, as I have been trying to withdraw my money since January 29th…

So, a sum of this (my account was already with ID, address and proof of payment verified, with previous withdrawals paid, but of lower amounts)

- January 29th: I ask for a withdrawal which they cancelled.

- January 29th: casino says the reason they cancelled is that they need proof of ownership of a mobile phone number

- February 3rd: document of ownership is accepted and the reason why withdrawal was being refused was “solved”

- February 3rd: I ask for a new withdrawal

- February 14th: withdrawal declined, casino says they blocked the option for withdrawals on my account as they need more review


I ask for your help on this, as they are trying to take my money with more and more excuses.

I’m attaching all relevant print screens to this situation.

Thank you
