A month to get paid!


My complaint has to due with amount of time to get paid. I have been a depositor at Sun Palace for about 4 years. I finally got a decent win of $2000.00. They told me they already had my documents that I sent in a few years back. Live chat informed me that I met play through on the deposit bonus. Much to my dismay, when I asked how long it would be to process my withdrawal by ACH to my bank account, they told me 3 weeks to a month. I'm in the U.S. but what I don't understand, is my friend is also in the U.S. and gets paid by online casinos within a week. He plays the Vegas Technology group which are different than the RTGs of course. My question is, if the withdrawals can get to him within a week from the ones he plays, why can't the RTG casinos do the same or even close to the same time range to pay their players in the US? It makes no sense other than to stall or avoid paying. My heart sunk when they told me up to a month. From what I've been reading on your site, I feel I may never get my payout. Can you possibly explain why some of them, like the ones my friend plays, are prompt and reliable, while the RTGs always seem to be the ones with slow payment issues? Had I known it would take up to a month to get paid, I would have chosen another casino. It states on their web-site 2 weeks...not a month! Just for that reason, I feel like I'm already getting the run around before I even start counting the endless days. With my documents already approved and the direct ACH to my bank, it's absurd that I should have to wait up to one month...or who knows? Maybe even longer? Is there any explanation for this? Other than the obvious one which I also feel isn't fair, which leaves the players winnings vulnerable in the cashier, beckoning day after day to be reversed and played back to nothing! Not that it matters, but I'm handicapped and could really use the money for a new wheelchair. Also explains why my entertainment of choice is gaming since I'm unable to go anywhere. It would just be nice to know I didn't make a major mistake in choosing to deposit here all these years...I did my homework and the reviews I read before I joined rated Sun Palace as trustworthy. I hope they didn't go "rogue" on me because I haven't been updating my knowledge of the reviews like I should have. All I want is an answer why can some and not the others? Thank you for being here so I don't feel so alone in this.

SUCCESS!!!

I honestly thought I would be waiting another week or more but check arrived today via courier and the total amount of $2000.00 which pays BOTH withdrawals of $1000.00.
I still feel that the wait time is much longer than it should be, but at least they proved to be honest about paying their players. Not sure if I will deposit here again due to the long withdrawal time, but one of the "pros" about Sun Palace is they have great bonuses and are pretty courteous about granting a free chip once in awhile upon request if you have a few recent deposits in your activity. I might decide to deposit here again, especially now that I know I have nothing to worry about except realizing you have to be patient and wait 3 to 4 weeks. They could improve on their communication and emailing but otherwise I don't have any problems with them.

Thanks SO much to AskGamblers.com for their assistance in this matter and for promoting fair play and honest payouts for players. I am satisfied with the resolution of my withdrawal and submit that this complaint can be closed as positively "resolved".

Thanks for all the help and support!
It's good to know you are here for us.
Much appreciated,

I logged in again today to ask finance why the status of my withdrawal was exactly the same in a pending state and not processed since I was informed that the check was processed last Thurs. Here's what happened. Live Chat (finance dept.) was open. I entered the required information and clicked on "Start Chat". I waited 1, 2, then 3 minutes passed and nobody responded. If there's no activity within the casino for a certain amount of time, it disconnects you for inactivity as well as the chat. It's really horrible that it's set up this way and really irritating because you get cut off all the time. I decided to log out and log back in on my own so when someone in chat responded, I would have more time remaining. I did this about 3 or 4 times and still nobody responded up to about 3 minutes. The 4th time I logged back in (finance) Live Chat was closed, even though it was the afternoon hours that they are supposed to be open. When I went to regular Live Chat of course it's the same thing as usual which is they don't have any information and I need to speak with finance.
As you can see, they aren't answering this complaint or even trying to help resolve this.
I still haven't received one email regarding anything and that's for the entire time since I made the withdrawal.
Could you possibly try to get them to respond one more time? Thank you.

This is the most recent conversation I have from today when I contacted the Finance Dept. Live Chat to be sure that they have my new option to be paid by cheque. (Check-USA)

Trying To Void Legitimate Winnings

Having Played various casinos, I wanted to play one with RTG games so I chose Sun Palace Casino. I made a minimum $25 cash deposit with no bonuses as I like to play with no “strings attached”. The last few spins on 3 Stooges part 2. I won the $383.00 jackpot. I immediately cashed out and received a letter asking for my license and copy of my bank statement. I received the following:

Dear < personal info removed >,

Thank you for contacting us! It is a pleasure to be of your assistance.

This email is to inform you that we successfully received all the documents you sent.

Your withdrawal request is pending now, once it is in Security Department you will receive a phone call of verification from us.

A few hours later I received this letter:

Payout Request Declined

Dear < personal info removed >,

We're sorry, but your MailCheck payout request of $ 390.00 USD for Account ID shoedog20 has been declined.

We thank you for your continued business and are always available if you should have any questions.

Note that they did not give any reason for the decline. I replied back asking for a reason and they claimed they didn’t receive my $25 payment due to a glitch with their processor. So how was I allowed to play? After challenging that I received this confusing letter:

Dear < personal info removed >,

Greetings from MainStreet Vegas Group!

We have just learned from our processor that your initial $25.00 deposit did not go through from your Visa card -9733 and it produced winnings.

In order to honor your payout, please proceed to deposit such amount (this deposit must be valid and duly confirmed by us). Else please provide evidence (banking statement) that the deposit in question was charged to your credit card. Unfortunately, by no circumstances we can deduct it from your winnings; that are also limited to a maximum of 5 times the credit amount used to produce them.

We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance four your cooperation in this matter.

Best Regards,

Alx

I checked with my bank and the deposit went through and was deducted from my account. Finally I got this letter confusing me even more:

Dear Alan,

Thanks for contacting us, in this case as the previous email said, from our end the transaction seems to be decline, now sometimes the

transaction might appear in your card, as pending transaction but this is totally normal and the money should be returning to your account

automatically in around 3-5 days depending on the bank.

For any other question please feel free to contact us via live chat.

It’s obvious to me they are trying to void a legitimate win. any help you can give me would be appreciated.
