Winward Casino won’t payout winnings. [RESOLVED]


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I was advised to submit my complaint to this forum in regards to Winward Casino finding any excuse possible to not pay out winnings. 

 

I joined Winward early July and played with a no deposit bonus to see if I liked the casino. I ended up winning and met the required playthrough to make a withdrawal request. Due to me not yet making a deposit they told me I needed to make one of even just $10 so that they could pay me out what I had won. I did so and ended up continuing to play with that $10 and ended up winning even more. After meeting the playthrough requirements yet again I decided to pull out when my balance hit $1000. $100 of that was the initial winnings and the other $900 was from the deposit made. 

 

I proceeded to make withdrawal request and uploaded the required documents for ID verification that were all approved within 24hrs.  I then waited for close to 3 days for the withdrawal only to go back into my account and find the $1000 back in there. I went on the live chat and was told by the customer service rep that they wanted a statement from my bank verifying my details so they could process the withdrawal. I asked why I wasn’t contacted by the accounting team to ask this and why the money was just put back into my account and was met with silence. I emailed the bank statement to accounting@wineardcasino.com as requested on July 13th. I then made the withdrawal request again. 

 

This time I waited 7 days only to go back into my account and find the $1000 back there again. I went on to live chat to ask once again why my request has been stalled yet again. I was this time told that I now needed to fill out a voucher verifying the card used was mine and to also send a copy of my ID and credit card used to security@wiwardcasino.com and once this was done my withdrawal would be processed. I became a little annoyed and asked why this wasn’t requested the first time they denied my request and asked for the bank statement and why they wanted my ID and CC again when it was already verified on my account weeks ago? I was again was met with more silence. 

So on July 20th I emailed the voucher, ID and CC as requested and made the withdrawal request for the 3rd time. Over the course of a few days I went on to live chat to find out when my request would be processed as I didn’t think it was fair that the casino was screwing me around the way they were to try get out of paying me my winnings. The customer service reps were either not even bothering to read what I was writing and were responding with generic answers that were probably fed to them during training or were just downright rude and would tell me to just be patient. 

 I then waited another 7 days and once again find the $1000 back in my account on July 27th. This time I was told that I needed to provide my credit card. I stated this had been provided not once but twice already. The first time was when I uploaded it onto my account and it was approved and the second time when I emailed the voucher when my request had been denied for the second time. Again the customer service rep was not bother to read what I was witting and continued telling me that they needed my credit card for the withdrawal request to be processed. So once again I email my credit card to them. 

I decided to go into my account to check to see what was there in the verification page only to find the casino had deleted all my approved documents. I have since uploaded the documents again only to go back in hours later and find them no longer there. This has happened more than 5 times now. I went on live chat and the guy I spoke to said that he could see I had only just uploaded my documents and I stated that they were uploaded 3 weeks again and were approved and then deleted, he lied and said that nothing has been deleted and that I wouldn’t need to upload them again after the last time. I decided to check again today and of course find my documents have once again been deleted.

This casino is scamming people out of money by being quick to take deposits but not paying out when someone wins. They are nothing more than scam artists and should be shut down. 

I have screen shots of conversations and have also taken screenshots of the ticket number when I won the funds as well as when I uploaded documents and then again when they  are no longer there. I can provide these if required.

Hello,

We hope this email finds you well.

Please note that your payout request has been declined due to the fact that you have not yet completed the required paperwork for all the Debit or Credit Cards successfully used on your account over the last six months.

Please feel free to upload the Credit/ Debit card voucher ( https://www.winwardcasino.com/assets/themes/wwc/web/i18n/en/docs/CCvoucher.pdf ) for all the cards successfully used in the last 6 months on the website (you can ask for the specific card info on chat) , under My Account, Account Verification, at your earliest convenience.  We noticed that you have placed a new payout request, please provide us with the document and your new request will be reviewed as soon as possible.

Lol oh Winward casino, the requested document was emailed close to two weeks ago after my withdrawal request was denied for 2nd time. I was then told that a pic of my credit card needed to be sent, which was actually included in the email with the voucher along with a copy of my drivers licence,  not to mention these documents were also ready approved and verified on my account by Winward before it was then deleted by the casino. 

I have been emailed today and told that the voucher I sent needs to be handwritten, yet no where on the form does it state that that is a rule, nor was I told that it needed to be handwritten to be deemed acceptable. I have no doubt that once I have emailed the form back handwritten I will be met with another excuse as to why the withdrawal can’t be paid.

Hello, 

Thank you for getting back to us. 

Please note that no documents can ever be removed from your file and that they can be uploaded on your account or provided to the Security team directly. All documents that need to be uploaded on your account are listed on the Banking page, so that you can review them at all times, and once you upload them and they are approved, they are valid for 6 months. 

We have notified the Accounting team of the situation of your account and your withdrawal request will be reviewed as soon as possible. We will, of course, keep you updated. 

Regards, 

Winward Casino

That’s funny because I had 3 approved/verified documents on my account and they have all disappeared.

I have since tried to upload them again so that this excuse could not be used to deny the payout and every time I go back in a couple of hours later, the uploaded documents are no longer there. I’ve taken screenshots of this as proof. 

And again as I have already mentioned, I have also emailed the security team a copy of my drivers licence and credit card when I sent the voucher almost 2 weeks ago. 

Can you please explain to me also why when the form does not state the voucher is to be handwritten and when I was never informed when the voucher was sent to me to be filled in that it was to be handwritten, that my withdrawal request has been denied because apparently this is a requirement of the form?

    • It seems like only yesterday that Slotland created WinADay Casino but, in fact, it’s been 15 years this month.  A lot has changed in online casinos in that time, but WinADay remains committed to providing unique games, giving the best possible customer service, and rewarding regular players for their loyalty. WinADay began in 2008 as the world’s first 3D online casino. It had a three-dimensional lobby with animated players walking around checking out the games. Since day one, WinADay has been continually adding unique new games and it very quickly outgrew the original 3D lobby, so the site later underwent a complete re-design in order to accommodate the growing games collection. Many of WinADay’s games are connected to one progressive jackpot. During the casino’s third birthday celebrations, Dereck O. won a $225,727 jackpot on the Vegas Mania slot. That game had already had three big jackpot wins but this one set a record at the time.  Just last month, Diane A won $312,725, one of the biggest jackpots ever, playing the Air Mail slot. For its sixth birthday, WinADay introduced its first mobile casino games and unveiled its first eleven penny slots. In 2017, for its ninth birthday, WinADay became one of the first online casinos to use Bitcoin for deposits and withdrawals. It’s easy to use and transaction fees are low, so cryptocurrency has since become very popular with players. WinADay now accepts Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin in addition to Mastercard, Visa, Neteller and bank transfers. WinADay always celebrates its birthdays with freebies for players and by introducing new games. This year is no exception. Until June 6th, players can claim a birthday freebie, a generous match bonus and a cryptocurrency bonus. Four new games will be added this month including Color Burst, Festive Time and Light the Night. 15th BIRTHDAY BONUSES Available June 1 – 6, 2023 $15 FREE BIRTHDAY GIFT  ($150 for Platinum VIPs, $100 for Gold, $75 for Silver and $50 for Bronze) Available to all players that have deposited at least $60 in the last 90 days Bonus code: BIRTHDAY GIFT Wagering requirement: 39x; Max Cash Out: 15x. Valid for all slots. 175% LOYALTY MATCH BONUS Available to all players that have made 15+ deposits Deposits of $35–$350 Bonus code: LOYALTYMATCH Wagering requirement: 40x. Valid for all slots. 115% CRYPTO CHIP (150% for VIPs) Cryptocurrency deposits of $50–$500 Bonus code: CRYPTOWINS May be redeemed 3X; wagering requirement 38x. Valid for all slots & Keno. WinADay was created by Slotland, an online casino pioneer. It’s an instant play online casino with a large collection of unique slots, video poker and Keno.   
    • We all know South Africa’s Big 5: lions, leopards, rhinoceroses, elephants, and African buffalo. This month, Springbok Casino introduces us to another South African animal, the tiny but mighty Rock Hyraxes. Despite their size, these miniature relatives of elephants are fascinating creatures with a range of unique adaptations and behaviors that make them stand out in the animal kingdom. Until the end of June, the South African online casino is giving free spins on its brand-new Bonus Wheel Jungle slot game. Springbok’s special feature is a collection of videos exploring Ten Fascinating Facts About the Rock Hyraxes: •    Rock hyraxes may look like rodents, but they are actually closely related to elephants. •    Unlike most small mammals, rock hyraxes can eat tough plants and survive on a low-nutrient diet thanks to their specialized digestive system. •    Rock hyraxes are known for their love of sunbathing. They can often be seen basking on rocks or other warm surfaces, even in the hottest part of the day. •    Rock hyraxes have a sophisticated alarm system that helps them detect predators and other threats. •    Rock hyraxes are expert climbers and can cling to almost any surface, thanks to their specially adapted feet. •    Rock hyraxes have a surprisingly varied vocal repertoire, including grunts, whistles, and even screams. •    Rock hyraxes are expert builders and can construct intricate systems of burrows and tunnels in rocky terrain. •    While most mammals would be killed by the venom of a puff adder, rock hyraxes are immune to the snake's deadly bite. •    Rock hyraxes are highly social animals and live in groups of up to 50 individuals. •    Rock hyraxes engage in a behavior called coprophagy, which involves eating their own feces in order to extract more nutrients from their food. JUNE FREE SPINS 25 Free Spins on Bonus Wheel Jungle Coupon Code: ROCKHYRAXES Available until June 30, 2023 Springbok Casino, South Africa's favourite online casino, has hundreds of slots and table games, all played in rands. Customer service is available in either English or Afrikaans. 
    • On Wednesday, Jackpot Capital Casino will unveil another new game from Spin Logic. Sweet Shop Collect has a unique Candy Collector that awards sweet bonus prizes. As usual with a new game, all players that have made a deposit in the last 30 days can take 20 free spins. Then, when they make their next deposit, they can get a 166% bonus and another 25 free spins. The new Sweet Shop Collect has mouthwatering candies spinning on its reels. After any winning spin, all minor symbols that are not part of the winning combination can be collected in its Candy Collector.  When a full Candy Collector bursts, a bonus prize is awarded.  Scatters award up to 20 free spins with up to 5X multiplier. During free spins, there are only low value symbols on the reels, so the Candy Collector can fill more quickly. SWEET SHOP COLLECT -- INTRODUCTORY BONUSES Available May 31 – June 30, 2023   20 Free Spins on Sweet Shop Collect Available to all players that have made a deposit in last 30 days Bonus code: SWEET20 Max withdrawal:  $180   166% Deposit Bonus -- up to $1666 Includes 25 free spins on Sweet Shop Collect Bonus code: SWEETSHOP Min. deposit $35.

MASKS OF ATLANTIS -- INTRODUCTORY BONUS Available until June 17, 2023 20 Free Spins on Masks of Atlantis Available to all players that have made a deposit in last 30 days Bonus code: UNDERWATER20 Max withdrawal:  $180 After every winning spin, Mask of Atlantis’ Seaquake Cascading Wins feature is activated. All symbols contributing to the win disappear from the gameboard and new symbols fall into their places, possibly creating more winning combinations.  After each cascade, the win multiplier for the next payout increases, up to 5X during regular spins and up to 15X during free spins. Jackpot Capital Casino has a huge selection of slots and table games. Most games are also available in its mobile casino for smartphones and tablets.
    • A WinADay Casino player recently won a $312,785 progressive jackpot on one spin of the unique casino’s popular Air Mail slot game.  Diane A said she took a deep breath and then burst into tears when she saw what she’d won. When it finally sunk in, she started thinking about how she’d spend her massive win. “I’ve lived in a small town for most of my life, and am not exactly a traveler. This year, though, I made a promise to myself to be more adventurous, with max bets being one of them!” she told a WinADay customer service agent.  “So it’s time to say good-bye to the Great Plains, at least for a while, and travel the country a bit. Maybe even take my first trip abroad!” The fifty-something antique shop manager said she also plans on helping family including her  nephew who is a disabled veteran. “My friends were all astonished when I told them what had happened.  Some didn't even know I gamble!” Diane said she’s never been a fan of land-based casinos and has only ever played online, first on her computer and, more recently, on her tablet and phone.  “I love how I can play anywhere, whenever I want! she said. “AirMail isn’t actually among my favorite games!” she laughed.  “I just landed there to take a bit of a break from my true faves like Cirque de Paris, Full Bloom, Ice Crystals and Vegas Mania!” Her advice to other players is to change your bets often, if your budget allows.  “Gamble responsively, but be brave and up your bets once in a while. I wouldn’t have won this jackpot if I hadn’t felt lucky and placed a max bet!” WinADay is giving all active players a bonus to play on Air Mail, the game where Diane hit the jackpot. $18 FREE Available until May 31, 2023 Bonus code: AIRMAILJP Wagering requirement: 33x Valid for Air Mail only. Air Mail’s retro design pays tribute to the early days of flying. The symbols on the reels include a vintage seaplane, an early airship, luggage labeled with exotic ports of call, air mail letters to foreign destinations, and a swashbuckling pilot. It has a re-spin feature that gives players the option of trying for a better combination of symbols by spinning one reel again. WinADay was created by Slotland, an online casino pioneer. It’s an instant play online casino with a large collection of unique slots. Many, like Air Mail, are connected to one progressive jackpot.  
    • You may have heard the term “fork” being used a lot in the crypto space, but do you know what it means and why it matters? A fork is a change in the rules or protocol of a blockchain network that creates two or more versions of the same coin. A fork can happen for various reasons, such as fixing bugs, adding new features, or resolving disputes among developers or miners.   There are two main types of forks: hard forks and soft forks. A hard fork is a radical change that makes the new version incompatible with the old one. This means that anyone who wants to use the new version has to upgrade their software and follow the new rules. A hard fork can create a new coin that splits from the original one, such as Bitcoin Cash (BCH) from Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum Classic (ETC) from Ethereum (ETH).   A soft fork is a minor change that makes the new version compatible with the old one. This means that anyone who doesn’t upgrade their software can still use the old version and follow the old rules. However, they may miss out on some benefits or features of the new version. A soft fork can also create a new coin that coexists with the original one, such as Bitcoin Gold (BTG) or Bitcoin SV (BSV).   Why should you care about forks? Well, forks can have a significant impact on the price, performance, and security of your coins. They can also give you an opportunity to get free coins if you hold the original coin at the time of the fork. However, forks can also pose some risks and challenges, such as confusion, scams, or attacks. Therefore, you should always do your own research and be careful when dealing with forks.   What are your thoughts on forks? Do you have any questions or tips to share?
