Player's Complaint

First of all I'd like to update you guys, other than in your information, Germany is not listed in captainspins list for restricted countries. They also have a german verison of the website and 24/7 german support.

I received their promotion of a 250% bonus and made a deposit. After my deposit a layer popped up and I had to set a monthly deposit limit, which i did. what happened then was, that I could not enter any slot.

It took 2 days for their support to identify my account and acutally take on my case, after 4 emails back and forth, me trying to explain that [EDIT] and [EDIT] are one and the same email account.

After having my email changed and my monthly deposit limit lowered from 1000€ to 200€, I asked them to, nothing happend. I had to ask the support a few times to figure out that they want me to write an email to their department for compliance and explain my sources of income. Which I emailed them.

Now another 24 hours passed by and it is 4 days after my deposit, yet I have no access to the slots.

Their support does not answer to my emails and the livechat is very friendly yet not solution orientated or helpful at all.

Nobody in that company is able to tell me what the next steps are and they also dont tell me how much longer I might need to wait. "We dont do estimations"

I wanted my deposit back, but they won't give me this option due to several terms that would be offended.

On the other hand I dont get the services I paid for, thats breach of terms.

I also find it wrong that there was no information befor deposit. Who would guess that 4 days after deposit, you still dont get to play and nobody will inform me properly or process my case with a drive for solution.

I have never experienced anything like this. They cant process their customers in an appropiate tempo, but still make large promotion campaigns, accept everybodys deposit and dont let people play anytime near.

Hi sheezy - welcome to ThePOGG.com!

With the greatest of respect you need to give the operator a reasonable amount of time to resolve this issue internally before seeking the intervention of a 3rd party dispute mediation service. If you are still experiencing issues on Friday the 6th of November let us know and I'll contact the operator on your behalf.

Thanks,

ThePOGG

Hi there,

thanks. Yes I am still blocked and can't play. Nothin has changed. Their email accounts gives autoreplies, that the message could not be delivered because the mailbox is full. Thats for the compliance email, not for the support I guess, but the Support doesn't answer anyway.

Hi sheezy - welcome to ThePOGG.com!

As we are the ADR for the White Hat Gaming license under the Malta Gaming Authority license there is certain information we have to provide you now.

You can find all the relevant information about this service here – http://thepogg.com/terms-of-use/ and the terms of use for our complaint service here - https://thepogg.com/terms-of-use-for-dispute-resolution-service/

To summarise.

– Use of this service does not preclude your seeking redress through court proceedings .

– This service is free to use for both the complainant and operator.

– At any point during the procedure the submitting party retains the right to withdraw their complaint. This does not preclude our right to continue the discussion with the involved operator of general issues related to the complaint (i.e. insufficiently clear terms and conditions).

Hi,

I received an email from the compliance department today, they've reviewed my documents and they informed me that I won't be able to play. No further information.

I tried to log in but I am banned and I was told to contact support.

The first agent said he was not allowed to give me information.

The second agent said that I was self-excluded, which was definately not the case.

I asked if I will get my deposit back, but the Support Agent told me to contact support via email.

So thats what I did, waiting for a reply now.

Hi, just wanted to update you guys that nothing happened. Eversince they informed me that they're not going to let me play and banned me. I can't log in. Live chat agents are no longer talking to me but make me write an email to support. Support doesnt react. I can't get my deposit back either. How should I proceed? Thanks.

Hi sheezy,

You need to provide the operator with a bank statement showing:

- Your name

- Bank's name

- Bank's address

- Transit code

- Account number

- Swift/BIC number.

Once you have done this let us know and we'll follow-up with the operator.

Thanks,
