Berrycasino

I opened account at Berrycasino and used welcome bonus for 150€ deposit and received 150€ bonus. I went through wagering and won 1500€. After that I delivered all requested documents for account verification. All documents were accepted. I tried to make withdrawal but soon my account was closed. I red bonus terms / terms and conditions before playing and followed carefully bonus terms through wagering.

I have tried multiple times to get reason for account clousure from the casino support but received none. They are only referring to casino terms and conditions: "The Casino reserves the right to close your Player Account and to refund to you the amount on your account balance, subject to deduction of relevant withdrawal charges, at Casino’s absolute discretion and without any obligation to state a reason or give prior notice."

I have never faced this kind of behavior from a casino. Please help me.

I joined Berrycasino well over a month ago, July 1st. Decided to take advantage of the welcome package and deposited 50 cad.

Played my wager for over an hour perhaps even 90 mins only to receive a message to the effect that I wasn’t allowed to play on the casino. I was on a profit, at that time. It should be noted. I guess if one loses their money right away, it would go down differently, so Berrycasino is owned by N1, and not being allowed to play there, end up having to ask for a refund of my deposit. Fair enough.

Then, the real nightmare begins. First casino access is quickly cut off, meaning I can only communicate with the casino via email or live chat when it’s even open. How very efficient. So I proceed with my request first using their live chat support line and then a lot of time passes, I get contacted on July the 18th by their support member, Mike. After explaining my situation, he asks me to somehow login to the casino and upload my documents there, not kidding. I then explain to him that my access had been revoked and he tells me that I should upload my documents straight to e-mail, obviously not encrypted in any way. At this moment I thought, the sheer amateurism is puzzling.

But having no other choice I proceed to upload all documents. IDs pictures, front and back. Debit card screenshots, Bank screenshots, proof of address, you name it. I send all of these over e-mail. All of these are sent their way, we are July 14th. Then the casino communication gets worse to absolutely bad. They are telling me they will take care of it, they ask me for my full bank information in order to process with a wire. I go ahead and give my information. At one point a certain Simon S from slotman which is another casino owned by another group (go figure…) steps in to help, or so I thought. Simons tells me they had kicked back the transaction. Except my method of deposit is Interac and they are merely a payment processor, they do not hold funds whatsoever. It was a made up reason. Then Simon assures me on July the 26th that the next day, it would get taken care of. And then, complete silence.

Many attempts to reach either Simon or Anyone at Berrycasino support getting completely ignored. In my (rough estimate) 20 years or so gambling online, I have never witnessed such bad faith behavior or at times at the very least complete amateurism and lack of understanding or will to actually fix my very simple problem, getting a mere 50 dollars refund. Absolutely mind boggling and shocking to be treated like that especially when you comply with everything they have been asking of you. I’m hoping for a quick resolve, because at this point I am completely drained and will escalate to further, more concrete means if this doesn’t get dealt with promptly. It’s been 34 days.

Update: 23rd of August,

It is to my utter dismay that i have to activate a newer complaint regarding the exact same issue/refund amount. Had many e-mail communications with Simon that was in early August they assured me that they had proceeded with a refund going as far as providing me with a "payment request details" document with the so-called refund information and i willingly took the original complaint down trusting their words and cooperation but alas BerryCasino's team managed to completely fumble the ball, once again.

There was no refund made. The aforementioned document was sent to me on August 5th. Notice how it mentions "Ready for refund". Not that it's actually been refunded. I was skeptical at first but I trusted that they would go ahead and process this thing as one would logically think and hope. As It is a wire transfer, there isn't much one can do other than wait and let the wire process. Well, days go by, turning into weeks. Nothing. Nada.

On August 23rd, I finally decide to reach out to my Bank and proceed to show them the document In question. They do a few verifications left and right, and their answer is crystal clear: there was absolutely no refund ever made/attempted. They go ahead and verify that the informations I gave the casino in order for them to create a wire refund were indeed correct, and they are. In other words, after me providing ID's, accurate bank information, them seemingly creating a request for a refund in their system, no refund to me was actually ever processed. I cannot speak for their true intentions, but these people have successfully completely broke my spirit and trust in these institutions. This is a terrible look on this casino, and N1 group altogether. I am lacking the words to express what i'm feeling at the moment. Hence this complaint is truly my last resort.
