Operator deliberately ignoring emails


user_avatar badge
Von Ovinolol
vor 3 Jahren

I have been trying to get in touch with WestCasino regarding a legal issue about their operator in my country of residence since December 11, 2022. Hence, I contacted them via e-mail on December 11 and 19 with my initial request. Since I did not get a response whatsoever, I sent follow-ups reminding them about my writings on December 20 and January 9 2023.

Please find proof of my e-mails attached to this writing. In the meantime, I got in touch with their live-chat several times, as I simply did not hear anything at all from their e-mail support. There, I was told, "Live-Chat support and e-mail support are to different departments and both cannot access each other's data." Hence, they could not tell me if they received any of my e-mails or were processing them. However, I was told multiple times I would receive an answer "soon".

Since that had not happened after one month, I decided to bring in my lawyer. Therefore, I needed my official transaction history on their Casino. On January 14, I contacted the operator again, asking for said transaction history. This time, after two days, I was told to contact their DPO - which I did. I have not heard from them since January 16.

On January 31 I resent my initial request with more detailed information. On February 3, I reminded them about my e-mail and asked for a confirmation of receipt. I have not heard from WestCasino since then.

I gave the operator the benefit of the doubt for some time. However, I have been waiting for almost two months now and have not heard anything at all (!) regarding my request. I would love to solve this issue through my lawyer, though I also do not get any responses from the operator's DPO.

WestCasino simply seems to be intentionally ignoring my request for whatever reason, as my e-mails clearly come through - since they responded to my request about my transaction history within two days. I had also thought that perhaps my e-mails did not come through, however, my e-mail provider always informs me within seven days if such a thing happened.

With this public complaint, I would like to utter my discontent about the way the operator is handling this issue. I would like to specifically point out that this complaint does not regard the legal issue behind my initial complaint (I will either try to find a solution with the operator itself or resolve the entire matter in court), but the way the support team simply ignores any of my e-mails. I understand requests sometimes can take longer to process, however having to wait almost two months without hearing anything really goes beyond anything I have seen before.

I am hopeful this complaint will encourage the operator to finally get in touch and find a timely solution to my request.


Kind regards

Dear Eduard,

thank you for your reply.

I, still, kindly ask you to forward your communication from 2021 to my e-mail, as I would like to have the entire communication at my disposal. I am certain you understand my thought process behind this, as the matter is rather delicate and I would like to have an overall image.

Thank you in advance!

Macht Probleme mit virtueller Kreditkarte

Hallo,

Ich habe bei Westcasino einen Bonus (200 Freesbins für 20 Euro ohne Umsatzbedingungen) genutzt und mit virtueller Klarna Card eingezahlt. Ich habe gewonnen und eine Auszahlung beantragt. Es kam die übliche Mail das ich mich mit Adressnachweis, Ausweis und Screenshot der Karte verifizieren muß.

Ich habe darauf hin sämtliche Dokumente per Mail zugesendet. Es kam zurück das sie noch ein Foto vom Ausweis und einen Screenshot von beiden Seiten der Kreditkarte benötigen.

Also sendete ich ein Foto vom Ausweis und schrieb dazu das ich eine virtuelle Kreditkarte benutzt habe und das es zu dieser Karte nur einen Screenshot von der Seite mit der Nummer gibt und auf diese Karte der Name nicht darauf steht weil es ja nur die eine Seite gibt.

Es kam eine Mail zurück das sie einen Kontoauszug brauche auf dem die Kartennummer darauf ist und mein Name. Ich sendete den Kontoauszug mit der Bemerkung das die Kartennummer auf dem Kontoauszug bei Klarna nie darauf ist zurück und noch einen Screenshot der Karte.

Ich schrieb noch dazu da sie ja anhand des Kontoauszuges die Zahlung zuordnen können und mein Name ja auf dem Kontoauszug steht. Es kam eine Mail zurück das sie einen Kontoauszug mit der Kartennummer und dem Name darauf brauchen und einen anderen Screenshot der Karte und das ich das ja verstehen solle und das sie so nich auszahlen.

Das Geld wurde zurück auf das Spielerkonto transferiert. Es handelt sich nun um einen Streitwert von 400 Euro.

Casino not verifying account
On 8.9.2024, I had 1329€ after wagering a bonus, I withdrew the money and started verifying my account. I then uploaded a picture of my ID card to the site on the same day. On 16.9, they sent me an email (screenshot) saying that my withdrawal has been placed back in my balance, as I had sent them a "blurry" image of my ID, and hadn't send them an official bank statement yet. I then uploaded a bank statement, and new pictures of my ID card on 17.9.

As I hadn't heard anything from them, I contacted them through live chat on 31.9, and asked what is the hold up, since the verification of the documents should take only 1-3 days, as their site says. The live chat operative told me that they "trust" that the verification team is going to contact me once they are done with the verification, nothing else.

On 1.10 I again asked what is the hold up, and told them I'd contact AskGamblers on the following friday if my account hasn't been verified and money withdrawn because my verification is being held up for no reason.

On 4.10, they sent an email (screenshot) saying that, again, the pictures of my ID card are blurry (none of the pictures were blurry, other sites had accepted them without a problem). I humored them and sent them new pictures of my ID cards for the third time. I sent the pictures on 4.10, and waited again, and as I received no response I decided to contact the customer support through email on 10.10 (screenshot), and they told me that the documents I send have to be valid and that the finance team will check it "as soon as they can".

It's been 4 days since that and I haven't heard anything from them, so I thought its time to open a complaint here, as it seems they are just using delay tactics and trying to make me play the balance away.
