On 13th August, I claimed a No Deposit Bonus of 60 FreeSpins on the game Merge Up, from which I was lucky enough to win AUD $11.28 by the end of the FreeSpins.
My lucky streak continued and I managed to playthrough the 35x Wagering Requirement to enable me to request a Withdrawal of a max. amount of $75 of my Winnings.
After this, I went ahead and uploaded 4 of my Verification Documents (my Drivers Licence, front and back + a selfie of me holding my Drivers Licence + A copy of my Bank Statement as my Proof of Address).
I then navigated over to check my Transactions History and realised that I had made 2x Credit Card Deposits back when I first opened my Account at Loki Casino in 2018 ($20) & 2019 ($25) respectively.
Admittedly, I have not made any further Deposits into the Casino since that time, and have also not played at that casino very much either over the past 5 years since my last deposit. However, if memory serves, it had something to do with not being happy about the currency conversion fees that I was being charged by my bank at the time.
Regardless of this, I went online and chatted with LiveChat to ask if they were able to tell me what was the last 4 digits of the credit card I used to make my 2x Deposits.
LiveChat was reluctant at first until I explained that the reason behind my question was so that I could verify my account online, and given that the transactions were both 5-6 years old, I would not have a clue which cards I would have used.
Having explained my dilemma to LiveChat, the Agent then advised that I had in fact used 2 different cards to make my deposits - Card number ending 9435 and Card number ending 1250.
Thankfully I am one who doesn’t throw out my old expired cards, and infact managed to find them with ease, so I uploaded photos of the front and back of both credit cards and uploaded them online for verification.
This made it 8 files in total that I uploaded for verification purposes.
Over the course of the next 1-6 hours, I noticed that Loki Casino had infact gone ahead and started to Verify my Documents, however, only 2 of 8 documents (my bank statement and the photo of the front side of my Drivers Licence) were verified and all remaining 6 documents left untouched.
Incredibly 18-24 hrs after I had requested my withdrawal of AUD $75, and uploaded my verification documents, I received an email from Loki Casino at 6:55pm (AWST), on Wednesday 14 August 2024, with the subject Title: ‘LOKI - Casino Bonus’, which said, quote:-
“
Dear Ming,
We hope this message finds you well.
We wanted to bring to your attention an important matter regarding your account and recent winnings. Our records show that over the past five years, the verification process for your account has not been completed. As part of our standard operating procedures and in compliance with regulatory requirements, verification is essential to ensure the security and integrity of all transactions.
Due to the incomplete verification, your recent winnings were adjusted, resulting in a reduction of 75 AUD. This action was taken in accordance with our terms and conditions, which require all players to complete verification to be eligible for full payouts.
We understand that this may be disappointing, and we encourage you to complete the verification process as soon as possible to avoid any further issues. Once your account is fully verified, you will be eligible for all future winnings without any adjustments.
If you have any questions or need assistance with the verification process, please do not hesitate to contact us. We’re here to help and ensure that your experience with us is as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

After reading that email, I was initially speechless at the fact that Loki Casino had the Audacity to quote their Terms & Conditions, and adjust my winnings to result in a reduction of $75 (the exact amount I was attempting to withdrawal), on the basis of an ‘incomplete verification’.
After a few minutes of sitting there in disbelief, I promptly replied to Loki’s Email at 7:13pm, and asked for clarification as to which part of my account was not verified?
I waited 10 mins without a response, so sent off a 2nd email at 7:25pm, which said, quote:-
“Hello,
Please advise how am I supposed to verify my account when your team doesn’t action any of my verification documents that’s has been uploaded specifically for this cashout?
I uploaded all required documents in the past 24 hrs … whoever is sitting behind the verification desk approved 2 and left the remaining documents untouched and unprocessed.
I even contacted support last night to verify the last 4 digits on the credit cards I used 5 years ago (both expired might I add), went through the trouble of searching for those cards, found them, uploaded them and they haven’t even been processed or verified in the past 18 hrs.
Please tell me what right you have to deduct my winnings when your own team is not doing their job with verifying my account?!?!?
Don’t ignore this because my next step is lodging an official complaint on all public forums online.…”
After I had sent my 2nd email, I was understandably quite ticked off and irate at the fact that Loki did not even attempt to discuss this matter beforehand, and decided instead to exercise their authority without just cause or opportunity for further discussion.
Which lead me to send off my 3rd email at 7:28pm, which said, quote:-
“Even you yourself didn’t bother checking whether the documents were uploaded online before rejecting my cash out for a second time and re-claiming my winnings!
Only 2 of 8 verification documents have been looked at…. All other abandoned and ignored!”
To that, I attached a screenshot of my Verification page, showing all 8 documents that were uploaded, and proof that 2 documents had infact been verified.
It is now 3 days after this incident, at 6:01am, Saturday 17 August 2024 (AWST).
Loki has shown true unprofessionalism by totally ignoring all 3 of my reply emails and up until now, have still not responded.
My purpose of submitting this complaint is hoping that AskGamblers will step in as an intermediary to get Loki Casino to payout my rightful winning due to their own negligence. In return, I would like all my private ID and information destroyed, and my account Closed effective immediately upon success withdrawal of my AUD $75, via a cryptocurrency payment to my UDST Account as previously requested.

Dear Loki Casino,
Please let us know if there are any updates regarding this ongoing complaint.
Please note that, in case you fail to respond within the given timeframe, we will consider your case unresolved and it will be closed accordingly. As a direct consequence of such closure, the operator's ranking score on AskGamblers will be decreased accordingly.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
Dear all,
This complaint has been reopened as per Loki Casino request and the AskGamblers Complaint Team would like to give it one more try and help both parties involved into the dispute reach a satisfactory resolution.
Dear AskGamblers,
More than happy for this case to be reopened.
However, it’s already been an additional 2 weeks since this case was Closed.
In my opinion, they were given more than enough time to provide a response the first time around but they clearly had no intentions of protecting their credibility and/or reputation, making this request their desperate plea to save their ratings.
So, other than Loki’s request to reopen the case again, what response have they provided?
Cheers!
Dear AusPlayer88,
Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your recent experience with Loki Casino. We appreciate your patience and the detailed information you have provided.

We understand your frustration, especially after having provided all necessary documents, including your old credit cards used for deposits in 2018 and 2019. Please be assured that our verification team is working diligently to complete the verification process as quickly as possible.

Dear Loki,
Ok - so let’s address the issues to every statement you made in your response to this claim….
(1)
“Firstly, we would like to congratulate you on your winnings from the No Deposit Bonus of 60 FreeSpins on the game Merge Up. We understand the excitement of winning and the importance of a smooth withdrawal process.”
>>> Too little, too late. Your team effectively burst that bubble of any such excitement when they chose to power play with the little guy, so any congratulations given now in a publically advertised complaints forum is non-genuine and as such, not accepted.
(2)
“Regarding your concern about the verification of your documents and the subsequent delay in processing your withdrawal request, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Our records indicate that you uploaded a total of eight documents for verification purposes. We acknowledge that only two of these documents (your bank statement and the front side of your driver's license) were verified promptly, while the remaining six documents were pending verification.
>>> Thank you! for finally acknowledging that my verification documents were in fact uploaded and that I was falsely accused of not meeting verification requirements and rudely ignored by the support team after numerous follow-up emails. Yet another proof of their choice for power play.
And let me ask you this …. How the hell can you employ such an incompetent support person to work in the verifications team, verifying highly sensitive customer documents, when he can’t even verify that the verification documents were uploaded before falsely accusing customers of not meeting their said obligations when in fact, the support person in this case was the one who was clearly incompetent and had no interest in doing THEIR JOB….?!!?

“We understand your frustration, especially after having provided all necessary documents, including your old credit cards used for deposits in 2018 and 2019. Please be assured that our verification team is working diligently to complete the verification process as quickly as possible. The delay you experienced is not reflective of the standard of service we strive to provide.”
>>> As per your own Terms & Conditions:-
“WITHDRAWALS (5)….. The period of processing requests for withdrawals is from 0 to 48 hours.”
“WITHDRAWALS (6)….. The Casino shall review the provided documents within a period of up to 1 business day.
- Withdrawal Requested AUG 13, 2024
- Complaint Lodged AUG 17, 2024
- AG Case Closed, then reopened SEP 5, 2024
- LOKI responded SEP 5, 2024
- TODAY - SEP 7, 2024
It is now an additional 2 days after receiving your response and I am sad to say, that the delay experienced, unfortunately, has a direct reflection on the standard of service that you claim to strive to provide…. As per attached screenshot taken just prior to responding, till date, the 6 remaining verification documents have STILL NOT BEEN VERIFIED……!

“Additionally, we would like to address the issue of your account's inactivity. As per our Dormant Accounts policy, any account that has recorded no login for a period of more than 180 consecutive calendar days is considered dormant. We notify players at least thirty days before their accounts are due to become dormant. In such instances, a monthly administrative fee (Dormant Account Fee) may be charged, provided the account does not go into a negative balance.”
>>> Again, As per your own Terms & Conditions:-
“DORMANT ACCOUNTS (1) The Company considers as a dormant any account that has recorded no login for a period more than 180 consecutive calendar days. The Company shall duly notify players at least thirty calendar (30) days before their accounts are due to become dormant in order for players to be informed in advance regarding relevant consequences.”
Since “the company” DID NOT DULY NOTIFY me at any time from 2018 - today 2024 (6 YEARS….!), this statement of yours about addressing a Dormant Account is NULL & VOID and Statutes of Limitations has long expired in any laws all around this world.
The fact that you even dared mention “monthly administration fees” is just another clear classic example of LOKI’s desperate attempt to NOT PAY OUT AUD $75!!
As previously mentioned, with the way LOKI has handled this 1st Withdrawal Attempt with a No Deposit Bonus, it has killed any form of credibility and reputation your casino may have once had. I would be out of my mind to continue playing at your casino, making any deposits at your casino, or placing any form of trust in Loki as a Company. So no “addressing” needed - CLOSE THE CASINO ACCOUNT….!
(5)
“We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. Our team will expedite the verification of your remaining documents and ensure that your withdrawal request is processed without further delay.”
>>> Again, Too little , too late and a false gesture…. 2 days after and I still have not received my rightful winnings of AUD $75… No communications has been received about withdrawals been processed either… so yeh .. there is definitely still delays….
(6)
We value your patronage and hope to resolve this issue to your satisfaction promptly.
>>> The satisfactory outcome would be for the support person who sent me that outrageous rejection email to provide a formal written apology, and for their employment to be terminated. He was unprofessional , provided false accusations - all grounds for dismissal.
And, it goes without saying - JUST PAY OUT and stop with your childish justifications and delays. With all the proof available of this incident, you guys have already shot yourselves in the head, so to speak….
(7)
Should you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our customer support team.
>>> Been there, done and tried that to be ignored, so not gonna happen … any communications about this will continue being public ….
(8)
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
>>> Lesson be learnt - train your staff better and teach them not to quote policies, terms and conditions so casually, just to hide behind such T’s & C’s, especially when you are the party in the wrong because I, for one, will nitpick the living shit out of your said T’s & C’s….. Thank you!
