LeoVegas Casino - Self Exclusion Issue


user_avatar badge
Por 55rls55
há 7 anos
I opened an account with LeoVegas on 25th March 2018 mainly to play live blackjack. I had self excluded from Royal Panda just days before on 22nd March 2018.

I deposited in total £540. On 26th May my account was closed, the explanation being that this was due to my self exclusion with their partner site Royal Panda.

I used identical usernames, email address, contact numbers, name, address, debit card etc on both sites. The self exclusion should have been picked up immediately before allowing my account to be opened.

At the time of closure there was £100 in my account. I have had correspondence by email with LeoVegas and they have been very slow to respond. It took around 4 weeks for the £100 to be refunded. I requested that all deposits be refunded on the basis of the self exclusion. My emails are now no longer being responded to which has resulted in this complaint.

My refund request was denied on the basis that LeoVegas only recently acquired Royal Panda and that my self exclusion happened before the acquisition. As far as I am aware from research the acquisition happened in 2017. As such I believe the remaining £440 should be refunded to me.

I also understand LeoVegas has been fined very recently by the UK Gambling Commission, for issues like this amongst other things. It does not look like they have turned things around.

This may have been thoroughly looked into but you have not provided me with any reason for your final decision or answered my specific query. My query is why, when the acquisition happened in November 2017 are you concluding that transactions in March 2018 - May 2018 are not affected? My Royal Panda account was both opened and closed after the 'acquisition' had already happened, as was my Leovegas account (which was opened after my Royal Panda account was closed down).

As you are stating publicly that you have responded in full I have pasted your response below (of course after removing personal details) to show that this is not adequate:

Hello xxxxx,

Thank you for sending in the requested email.

In response to our recent communication via AskGamblers, I have now been able to locate your account and take a look into your inquiry.

Royal Panda has recently been acquired by the LeoVegas Group. As part of its approach to enhancing customer protection and promoting social responsibility, the Group has implemented a multi-operator Self-Exclusion Register which, as a matter of policy, enforces self-exclusion across all brands of the LeoVegas Group which now following its integration into the group business includes Royal Panda.

As you previously undertook self-exclusion from Royal Panda before the acquisition this has now been extended to all other brands within the LeoVegas group as part of the integration. LeoVegas is not obliged to make any refund or payments to any of its players in these circumstances and unfortunately will not be doing so on this occasion.

If you should have any further inquiries please do not hesitate to contact me.

I wish you all the very best xxxxx.
Best regards
xxxxx

This has not been responded to accordingly. Your email once again states "As you previously undertook self-exclusion from Royal Panda before the acquisition this has now been extended to all other brands within the LeoVegas group as part of the integration".

Again I understand 'the acquisition' you refer to was completed in early November 2017 whereas the series of events described above took place from late March 2018 - May 2018.

LeoVegas Casino - Has locked my account due to security reason
Hey guys,

So a little side information before we get into it all I'm located in Ontario Canada and therefore a regulated market by igaming and it is 100% legal here. I've been wagering for over 2 decades on sports and casino games so I'm very familiar with multiple books and how terms and conditions go and what is industry standard when it comes to customer service

So let's dive into it

I signed up for LeoVegas back in OCT 2023. I strictly play online slots with this provider. Nothing else. I used their new user promo which I believe was - depo $250 get 100% match x5 roll over or something.

Rolled it over and won a bit of money. Continued to play and use all the promotions they were offering me and over the months I grew the account to almost $11000. I would continue to deposit and withdrawal(to unlock promotions) and roll them over. At some point in March 2024 I pulled out $3400 and brought the account down to $7500. I continued to play as normal until about 3-4 weeks ago when I noticed withdrawals were taking way longer than usual. Typically it would be within a few hours then it was a few days and then it got to a point where I had to use the live chat and ask for my withdrawal to be processed. Deposits were still instant.

So last week I go on live chat and request my withdrawal to be processed and the agent says that in order to do this I need to verify my documents. I then say I have already done this when I first signed up and that I wouldn't have been able to ask chat the last few times to process my withdrawals(as well as the 100+ other withdrawals I made since first signing up). They say "no you need to verify your documents". So I go look and sure enough my documents are gone. I re-upload everything and get the confirmation I am fully verified(have screen shot). The agent processes my withdrawal no problem. Monday May 13th rolls around and I go to sign into my account only to find I've been locked out. So I hop on the live chat and ask if I need to reset my password or if there were too many failed attempts which is typically how account's get locked. The agent states this is not the issue. So I ask what is the problem? They reply that they can't provide this information and that I will receive an email from their "relevant department". I ask when I should I expect this email? The agent states it's a que based system and it will get handled in order.

It's been 5 days and they won't tell me anything while holding my $7000 hostage (this money is not attached to any sort of roll over requirements which is confirmed by live support)

Things they can't tell me about my account

Why it was locked? What department is handling my account? How long will this process take?

Things they can tell me about my account

My funds are still there

AskGamblers please help!

LeoVegas Casino - Verification problem with the casino
I played on LeoVegas and won some money I wanted to withdraw. Once I withdrawed €1500 I recieved an email that I should verify my account and I proceeded to do so. Unfortunately when I came to my Identity verification it asked me to upload a photo of my passport or drivers licence - I do not own any of that, I have only my Identity card. I contacted support to check if they are approving that and was told that they do so and they sent me new links to upload it. When I pressed on link it didn't give me that option still. I contacted support again and they told me to send an email and I did - to this day I still haven't recieved any feedback. So I decided to contact support again when they told me they do not accept ID card only passport and/or drivers licence once I told them their colleague told me differently they said that they actually do accept it and that I should upload it in drivers license part and that they will accept that. When I uploaded my ID card in drivers license section they just rejected it and said it's wrong document. I really only want to verify my account and withdraw money and they are making it impossible. I am very frustrated and stressed with this situation and don't know who else to contact regarding this issue. I had similar problem with my proof of address - I uploaded 2 different documents dated less than 3 months from today and they just kept rejecting it. They just keep changing stories and it became very frustrating and stressful for me to deal with.

LeoVegas Casino - Account as been locked

I tried to place a bet on an online casino game and was told my bet exceeded the limit. I contact Leo Vegas the casino I’m playing with for them to say my account is under review and I would not be able to play or withdraw my money. They said someone would be in touch via email and that they didn’t have a time frame.

My current balance is £5440.20 if I can remember correctly. 2 days later I went to log in to be told my account was locked due to security reasons. I contacted them again and was told that someone would email me and that again they didn’t have a time frame.

I have seen other players have this issue and I refuse to wait weeks or months to gain access again to my account. I’m sorry but issues like this should take no longer than 24 hours to resolve. It has now been coming upto a month and I am still getting the same automated response!! All I’m being told is that my account is under review and it is locked due to security reasons. I have been told that the relevant department will email me but this hasn’t happened. I have been waiting ages keep getting told the same everyday!!

I sent 3 months worth of bank statements and 3 months payslips I can’t get as I don’t work on have emailed loads stating that Still waiting for a response and for my account restrictions to be lifted

All I keep getting told is to wait 3 to 5 days every 3 days And still with no reply or email it’s starting to be a JOKE

With all the bad reviews I’ve read I just want my money back in my account then I’m out!!!!
