Self exclusion not honored

Message on forum

I have been asking to close my account since November last year due to my gambling addiction, I have sent 4 emails and asked on the chat line but they still won’t close it. As I am a gambling addict I have kept depositing. I believe that this casino has not shown any duty of care even after me asking to close account several times. I demand all my Money back I have deposited this year, I have now started going to gamblers anonymous and have been advised I am entitled to my money back or I will go to the gambling ombudsman. I believe I am owed $1011. And that’s only from January. And even after chatting again tonight asking to close my account I am still able to deposit. This is a very bad casino who does not have the customers best interest. Thank you

As you can see Askgamblers, Viggoslots do not respond to emails or messages and therefore my request to close my account due to gambling addiction was not honoured, they are responsible for the loss of money which resulted in much stress and anger to my family, they had a duty of care as do all casinos, them refusing to respond to this complaint should show what kind of people and casino they really are, therefore I will also take this complaint to eCOGRA.

Thank you

Viggoslots made it impossible for me to close my account even after expressing my gambling addiction to the chat line back in November. It is not my fault that they did not update their website or tell their staff that they had a different email. As a gambling addict become account remained open I kept playing thinking I could win back all the money I had lost. This is Viggoslots problem and I demand all my deposits back from this year which results in $1011. Thank you I await my refund

Hello!

Excuse our late response.

We have being updating our website and needed to update our email address in " Responsible Gaming page" This have been now updated. To to replay your questions you can found in " Responsible Gaming page " how to close your account and we will update it with more information soon.

Chat support on Viggoslots casino are trained to help players as much they can. In this case our chat support did know that the email from contact form did not work, so our chat did try to help player and that was to send email via cashier since the old email did not work for the moment.

Before we did all this email we did found an email conversation with this player where he did only send to us to close his account.

The player in this case did not mention any gambling problems to us and we respected his decision to close his account.

We sent back that we would pass on his request to our department, but then players changed mind and wrote that we should ignore his request to close account and so it has been until now. We have closed the player's account now and wish him good luck.

Best regards,

Viggoslots Casino

Ongoing withdrawal issues

Once again I am having withdrawal issues at Viggoslots which has been going on for weeks. I won $125 and the withdrawal was approved, and then apparently the payment didn't go through to my credit card due to "technical issues" which often occurs at this casino and starts a painful exchange with their support team. I tried another credit card with the same thing occurring. I got in contact with support, who advised to try another method. I attempted to withdraw by btc which was declined as it wasn't the same as the deposit method (being a credit card, which withdrawal didn't work to). They then suggested to try by bank transfer or mifinity. I don't have a mifinity account which I told them. I also told them their bank transfer fields don't work, as I keep getting an error message when I attempt to withdraw. Also weirdly, there is no field for a bank account number which makes me suspicious. That was several weeks ago and since then there have been about 5 sets of email from me to Viggoslots and them back to me with them repeatedly saying to withdraw by mifinity or bank transfer, despite me saying each time it doesn't work. I have sent them a screenshot of the bank transfer error message about a week ago, but they've just asked for another one while continuing to advise I withdraw by mifinity or bank transfer. I suspect they are stalling in the hope I will give up. I feel a fool for having deposited here again. Regardless, I did, and am hoping ask gamblers can help me retrieve my money.

KYC approved but they removed it right after

I am submitting this complaint regarding my delayed withdrawal of 17,000 NOK from Viggoslots.

Timeline of events:

I requested a withdrawal of 17,000 NOK.

The casino then requested KYC/verification documents.

I completed the requested verification process and submitted my documents through Sumsub.

I received confirmation that my KYC documents had been successfully verified.

After this, the verification process became inconsistent. At one stage, my account showed that identity verification was still pending again, even though I had already been verified.

The casino then claimed that they had sent me an additional email/link for address verification, but this email did not arrive. I checked inbox, spam, and junk folders.

I contacted live chat multiple times. Instead of resolving the issue, support repeatedly claimed that the email had been sent, gave resend times, and closed the conversation without actually solving the problem.

I also have evidence showing that I do receive other emails from Viggoslots, including in spam/junk, which makes the missing verification email even more questionable.

Later, I completed the requested verification again through Sumsub, and the profile was marked as verified.

Live support then clearly confirmed in chat that they had all the documents needed for my KYC and that my account was fully verified.

My account dashboard now shows account_fully_verified, with both id_approved and poa_approved, and the identity verification step marked as completed.

Despite this, my withdrawal of 17,000 NOK still remains “in progress” and has not been paid.

Important points:

I have fully cooperated with every verification request.

I have submitted the requested documents.

I have completed the Sumsub process.

I have proof that support confirmed my account is fully verified.

My account status itself shows full verification.

Therefore, KYC can no longer reasonably be used as the reason for delaying this withdrawal.

I also note that smaller withdrawals were processed previously, while this larger withdrawal has been delayed.

At this point, I am asking the casino to stop delaying the matter and to process my withdrawal without further excuses.

I am fully verified, and there is no valid reason left to keep the withdrawal pending.

Repeated withdrawal issues

I have been trying to withdraw 2 withdrawals from viggoslots for about 3 weeks. One of $45 and the other about $200. Each time, amounting to 4-5 times, I get an email from them saying that the withdrawal has failed upon approval and inviting me to attempt another method. I have tried to withdraw to 3 different credit cards with the same outcome, sometimes several times. I have recently attempted to withdraw the $200 one to mifinity (had to create an account in desperation just for this purpose as it was my only option other than card) and that is still in process mode. The other $45 was not returned to my account after it reportedly failed upon processing so has just been re-absorbed by viggoslots. I am fully KYC verified and the withdrawals have already passed approval, so there is no issue with bonus use etc. but they are just not reaching my bank for a reason only viggoslots would know. I would like viggoslots to cease the practice of failing withdrawals upon approval ideally, but short of that I would like the $200 to be processed promptly, rather than it fail upon approval. I would also like the $45 returned to my account and for its withdrawal to proceed without issue.

1400 Withdraw been cancelled since 2 weeks everyday

Hey it's been around 2 weeks I'm trying to withdraw my money and I'm verified etc. They keep canceling my withdrawal with no reason attached to it. I've been talking to an agent every day since and they keep telling me the same thing to switch withdrawal method, etc, etc.

They should know why they canceled my withdrawal, but they never tell me why.

Withdrawal request processed then reversed casino not responding

Hi Disputes Team,

I am KYC verified and made a withdrawal request of $280.31 NZD on 17-04-2025. I confirm that the winnings were from real funds, not bonus funds, and I received an email from Viggoslots on 24-04-2025 stating that my request had been processed and my winnings would "soon be credited to my account."

When they still hadn’t arrived 4 days later, I logged into my casino account and that’s when I noticed my withdrawal, which was marked as 'processed,' had been reversed and added back to my account balance.

I immediately contacted the help desk to inquire about the reason for this reversal and spoke to Sophia, who confirmed that my withdrawal was processed on 23-04-2025, but she was unable to explain why it was reversed, or why I was not notified. She assured me that she had escalated my case to the relevant department and that someone would contact me.

That was 10 days ago.

Despite my multiple attempts to resolve this via email and live chat, I am repeatedly told that 'someone will contact me soon.' However, it seems we have differing interpretations of 'soon,' as I am still waiting for that reply.

Furthermore, each of my several attempts to withdraw my winnings after they were reversed has been cancelled by the casino. This is followed by an email from the Viggoslots finance team stating:

"Unfortunately, we had to cancel your withdrawal(s) due to a breach of the following Terms and Conditions:

4.2. All deposits must be wagered at least once before the player is able to withdraw any balance"

I have asked Viggoslots to specify which deposit they are referring to and the ID number, as the deposit that THIS withdrawal relates to has already been wagered on 17-04-2025 when I made the original request to withdraw my winnings. There has been no reply to this request either.

It is my belief the casino's algorithms are mistakenly reading the reversal of my withdrawal as a 'Deposit' of $280.31 NZD, leading to the automatic decline of my withdrawal requests.

My most recent email to Viggoslots clearly demonstrates that this is a withdrawal and that all T&C's were followed. This was sent 5 days ago, and today I received the same cut & paste email informing me that my “request has been received and forwarded to the relevant department.”

I want Viggoslots to explain why my withdrawal was reversed after processing. If it has been incorrectly classified as a 'deposit,' I expect them to correct this mistake so I can withdraw the winnings I am owed from 17-04-2025, as indisputably confirmed by Viggoslots in their 24-04 email.

Please let me know if there is any additional information you need.

Sincerely,

< first name removed >

Viggoslots stalling 2400euro withdrawal over a week

Dear AskGamblers and Viggoslots

I've been waiting for my withdrawal to get accepted for over a week now.

I made the withdrawal request of 2400 euros on 2025-03-05, and I might add that my account is fully verified, and I have made two earlier withdrawals on this site without any problems.

I've been in contact with support multiple times without any explanation why there is such a huge delay this time, just that I need to have patience.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards

Withdrawal issue at Viggoslots Casino

Dear ASkGamblers Support Team,

I am reaching out regarding my $4,410 withdrawal, which has been pending for over 48 hours. The verification process has been completed, but despite this, there has been no progress, and I am growing increasingly concerned about the delay.

I have contacted the support of Viggoslots multiple times, but unfortunately, they have not been able to provide any clear answers or updates. I was simply advised to wait, but I feel this situation requires immediate attention.

I kindly ask for your assistance in resolving this matter as soon as possible, as I am worried about the status of my funds. Please look into this and provide an update at your earliest convenience.

Delaying my withdrawal of 1510.80 Euros

Hello Askgamblers,

Viggoslot is trying to delay my payout for some reason.

On 27.01.2024 I had requested my payout of 1510,80€ and today they wrote me that due to a high number of payout requests the whole thing is delayed further. I have been told the same thing over and over again in the live chat.

Please help me.

Withdrawl not being processed

I have been waiting for my withdrawal to be processed for almost 4 weeks.

I have submitted my documents, they were received and approved. This is the third time now I've had to submit my documents and go threw this process. I have also made deposits with you and had previous withdrawals with you with no issues at all it was actually a great experience. Until now......

I'm getting no answers from your chat agents, other than being told it's sent to another department they will contact me. I've been waiting for this department to contact me for 3 weeks. With nothing. I've spoken to you guys every day since Nov 20 about my withdrawals. I honestly just want my money..... I and mainly this issue to be resolved so I can continue using your services with confidence.......
