FORMAL COMPLAINT - against NewVegas.Casino - Username: GeorgieLucas
Hi LCB,
I have been going back and forth for over a month now with NewVegas Casino. They actually had asked me to reach out to you directly - see their email to me below.
"After review, we have decided to address all of your complaints that you
have placed on Websites such as LCB. At this time, because you have
placed these complaints, we would like you to go ahead and create a
formal complaint with LCB so we can address with them directly and come
up with a referee'd conclusion on your account. The reason for this is
because we want to be transparent and we do believe that. 3rd party is
required in order to reach a settlement. When you have completed an
official complaint, we will await for LCB to reach out to us so we can
make sure that once this is resolved, they will officially mark the
situation as resolved. Thank you and look forward in finalizing"
First, it is interesting that they are putting this into a 3rd party's hands. Nonetheless, I do hope NewVegas has understood that I am willing to take this as far as possible to make sure that I not only receive what is due, but that other players that have complained about them may receive what they earned.
Let me start off by saying that I am a veteran of Online Casino gaming and have great relationships with other online casion's. Whenever I request withdrawals from sites like Superslots.ag, WildCasino and many others, the transactions come very quickly, often times within 24 hours.
With NewVegas Casino however, that was not the case. I did my due diligence and sent in my documents verifying my identity (drivers license, bank statement AND a utility bill). These documents were approved by New Vegas on June 25th. I requested withdrawals totaling up to $5,000 on June 20th. I noticed on July 3rd that it has been longer than 1-7 days NewVegas advertises on their website that it takes for them to send bitcoin withdrawals.
All their online chat support said was "contact the support email, we are waiting for the 3rd party provider who sends payment to get back to us". This is odd, because I've never had to wait this long with any Casino I've ever played with.
I sensed something fishy immediately and took down all of my information in case they decided not to pay me what I rightfully earned on the Fresh Deck studios Live Roulette platform. Multiple Casinos use this platform and it is a live dealer. As I mentioned before, I do not use bonuses - no bonuses of any kind are used on this.
I had a good night - and I've attached pictures of my current withdrawals AND the money I had on account. $11,995 + $5,000 of withdrawals - $16,995.00 total.
Another week went by and their support team failed to get back to me. Finally, I received a reply back from them on July 7th via email - see below.
"First, we would like to offer our sincerest apologies for the delay in the response. At the moment, we are in direct communication with the third-party provider regarding your current payout requests.
They will provide further information to us by the end of this week. We completely understand any inconvenience that this might cause, however, we can assure you that we're working swiftly towards sorting this out for you. We greatly appreciate your time and patience.
Please keep in mind that chat agents do not handle payout information. You'll be surely informed via email as soon as the provider gets back to us."
After receiving this e-mail, I was completely aware that this Casino isn't like others. They are not licensed, and many forums like LCB has users complaining about never receiving payment. After I constantly reached out - I received a reply a week later from the "floor manager". See this email below. This is especially damaging to NewVegas because he states that they need to do an "audit" of the roulette wheel and that it takes "6 months". I happen to have contacts in the industry, and that is a completely false claim - many casinos use the same live roulette platform (Fresh Deck Studios) and I have been paid out by multiple Casinos. How does NewVegas decide to "audit" that wheel? It makes absolutely no sense. They mentioned they needed to "audit" the gaming limits. See email below.
"Hello Matthew, My name is Scott, I am the floor manager here. I have now
taken over your account as I want to help you speed up this process and
update you so you are not left in limbo. Firstly, I do want to let you
know that you will get paid, you do not have to worry about that. At
this time, it is normal practice to audit accounts that have Duplicate
accounts as this is very common in the industry for fraud. Every-time
you make an account anywhere , they always ask you to keep it to one
account. When you open multiple accounts, you are automatically tagged
as a " Risk " because 99.9% of the people that do create multiple
accounts are usually either trying to abuse the bonus structure or
bypass gaming limits. I have quickly reviewed your account and I do not
think you are abusing a bonus, but they do need to audit the game and
the gaming limits . That being said,to avoid this issue in the future,
please keep your account to only one to avoid this issue, with us or
with any other website. Right now they are reviewing the live dealer to
make sure all roulette rules were respected. Once that is done, they
will need to wait 6 month from your last deposit in order to alleviate
risk. And only then can your account be tagged as risk free and good to
go. While we wait for that, I will make sure that once the Roulette
audit is done, I will push for some sort of payment to you as I do not
think you have any malicious activities on your account. I do apologies
for the delay, it is unfortunetly common practice for online gaming but
I do think this can be resolved easily. Please allow me until this M
onday to get a proper update. Meanwhile, if you need anything , please
do not hesitate to contact me."
After receiving this e-mail - it was crystal clear. NewVegas was coming up with every excuse known to man to not pay me what I had rightfully won and earned.
After I threatened to get my contacts and lawyer involved, the floor manager emailed me and asked me to contact him via the live chat feature. I did so, and notice extreme inconsistensies in what him and I were discussing. He told me that the email (the same one I pasted above) stated that I would be paid by the following Monday. However in the email it clearly states that I would have to wait 6 months for the roulette wheel to be "audited"
SEE chat below between the floor manager and myself.
You received an email ( By Me ) Last week saying you will be paid on Monday.
GeorgieLucas 01:30 PM
Hold that thought
Let's take a look right now.
Sophie 01:31 PM
Go Ahead
You even replied to me
Sophie 01:31 PM
Go Ahead.
GeorgieLucas 01:32 PM
I'm looking at this. I dont see in any of your emails mentioning this.
Sophie 01:32 PM
Matthew, you replied to that email.
GeorgieLucas 01:33 PM
Would you like me to copy and paste the emails I have received
Sophie 01:33 PM
Not necessary, I am looking at it.
There is no other Scott but me, and the first time we Spoke, I mentioned my name, and you replied adressing Scott.
GeorgieLucas 01:33 PM
You never mentioned me getting paid by Monday. You just said I would have an update from you on Monday
"I do think this can be resolved easily. Please allow me until this M onday to get a proper update."
Sophie 01:34 PM
" Please allow me until this M onday to get a proper update. Meanwhile, if you need anything , please do not hesitate to contact me. "
You replied 20 minutes later
Matthew, at this time, I feel like you are taking me for granted and playing games.
GeorgieLucas 01:34 PM
Correct - you are just saying you would give me an update. You never said I would be paid by then
Sophie 01:34 PM
Correct. Regarding your Payment.
And in my email , I am mentioning that I will push for you to get a payment.
GeorgieLucas 01:35 PM
Correct - you said you'd update me, not that I would "receive payment by Monday". I'm not playing games, I'm simply saying that was not stated.
Sophie 01:36 PM
I can see how it's worded. I can understand you thinking I am saying I will only update you. Regardless, My email was very clear that you will be getting paid
END OF CHAT
There was a lot more to that chat. The floor manager mentioned my account got flagged because I "requested" a cashback. That was also COMPLETELY false. First off, they could not provide proof that I requested this. Secondly, when I deposited, NewVegas has a ZELLE feature. I sent my deposit in BY ZELLE. You don't request "cashbacks" via zelle - it doesn't work like that and if it did, it would be a long process. They have made NUMEROUS excuses as to why there has been delays:
1. The third party provider
2. A roulette wheel audit
3. Me requesting cashbacks
What's interesting is two weeks ago, I received a Zelle Payment back from the location I initially sent my deposit to. They refunded me my money with a message in the memo line that said "mistaken transaction". I realized why they did this - so they would have an excuse not to provide me with my withdrawal. Again, you can't request cashbacks via zelle - it's not a credit card.
They permanently closed my account, without any explanation last week. However, due to me providing them with countless forms of evidence and having my lawyer contact them, they reverted to this route. For all parties involved, I do not want to drag this out. I won my winning fair and square, passed the verification process and did everything completely correct.
I'd like to receive my withdrawals and also to still have the money I had ON ACCOUNT - NewVegas just doesn't want to pay what they owe. Please help me get this resolved and receive what I am owed and what I had earned.
