Overview

Review last updated – January 2013

One of the older online casinos still in business today, Jackpot City was set up in 1998. They have a solid reputation and are accredited at CasinoMeister.

Trustworthiness 8/10

One of the six reviewers who work for this site on a regular bases holds an account with Jackpot City. They report only positive experiences with Jackpot City.

Jackpot City have been unresponsive to 3rd party dispute mediation in a recent case at another mediation site (http://www.askgamblers.com/casino-complaints/jackpotcity-wont-pay-winnings-of-38000-c240). This is contrary to their accreditation at CasinoMeister and we hope a singular issue, however their unresponsive approach to this specific situation has damaged their score.

Payout Speed and Banking 8/10

Using Neteller our reviewer reports withdrawals normally paid within 48 hours.

Banking options available - Credit/Debit cards, Neteller, UKash, Click2Pay, ClickandBuy, PaySafeCards, Entropay Cheque and Bank Transfers

We recommend using Neteller for speed, convenience and security. To sign-up to Neteller click here.


Customer Service 2/10

Our reviewer reports positive experiences with Jackpot City customer service. However our own email testing has shown sever problems. We emailed them with two basic questions three times, leaving 72 hour between each email and failed to receive any response. Jackpot City no longer lists a support email address on their site.

Closing Comments

Lack of email support and an unresponsive attitude at Ask Gamblers has really damaged the score of an otherwise reasonable outfit.
