Case summary

2 months ago

The player from Spain had requested a €500 withdrawal from Powbet six weeks prior, but despite the withdrawal being marked as 'completed,' the funds never arrived in his bank account. After ongoing communication with support and being asked for a bank statement, the money was returned to his player account instead of his bank, leading to feelings of manipulation and ultimately resulting in a gambling loss. The Complaints Team acknowledged the player's frustration but concluded that they could not assist further, as the lost balance was deemed a result of regular gameplay, and no remaining funds were available for investigation. Consequently, the complaint was closed.

I made a €500 withdrawal request from Powbet. After several days of waiting, they finally marked the withdrawal as "completed," but the money never arrived in my bank account.


During this entire time, I kept sending emails and contacting support, but I didn't receive any clear answers or real solutions, only empty phrases asking me to keep waiting. This lack of attention left me feeling terribly desperate, as I didn't know if my money had been lost or if I was being scammed.


They even asked me for a bank statement for the entire month, which I had to request from my bank, paying €5 out of my own pocket, just to prove the money had never arrived. That means, in addition to not receiving my withdrawal, I had to spend even more money because of their poor management.


Many days went by like this, and finally, Powbet returned the money, not to my bank, but back to my player account balance, as if they wanted me to play again. I didn't ask for that. It was a unilateral decision, without consulting me, and I felt completely manipulated.


I was emotionally exhausted, frustrated, and anxious, and in that state of helplessness, I ended up gambling that money and lost it. But I didn't lose it gambling by choice; I lost it because I was forced to have that money back where I was most vulnerable.


Not only do I consider this an abusive and manipulative practice, but I also have all the evidence to support my story: the emails I sent, the exact dates of the withdrawal, the responses I received, the bank statement they requested, and the time the money was returned to my balance.


I demand that the €500 be returned to me because this wasn't a normal gambling loss. It was the direct result of a chain of errors, negligence, and disregard for the user's well-being. And that can't go unpunished.

Dear fifsa23,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I understand the situation is frustrating, but sadly, since you have played/lost your winnings, I’m afraid there is not much we can do for you. The player is the only one responsible for their account, active balance, and all the bets taking place. I understand that this would have never happened if you could withdraw on the first attempt but at this point, we cannot ask the casino to refund your lost winnings. We would really like to help, but it is impossible this time.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with; otherwise, I will be forced to close this complaint.

Thank you very much in advance for your understanding.

Best regards,

Kristina

Dear Cristina,


Thank you for your response. However, I cannot accept this ruling as fair or final, as it fails to take into account the fundamental facts of my claim.


As I explained, the withdrawal of my €500 was not handled correctly by the casino, and after days of waiting, evasive responses, and requests for additional documentation (which even incurred bank charges), the money was returned to my gaming balance without my consent. This decision was unilateral, unsolicited, and taken after I had already expressly requested a bank withdrawal.


I lost the money in a context of emotional exhaustion, anxiety, and helplessness, created precisely by the poor management of the withdrawal. This wasn't a voluntary bet under normal conditions, but a situation caused by the operator's lack of attention, communication, and professionalism.


That's why I reiterate: I'm not claiming an ordinary gambling loss, but rather the result of a chain of errors and negligence that left me with no options.


I ask that you reevaluate my case taking these essential elements into account. If I don't receive a fair resolution, I will be forced to escalate this situation to the appropriate regulatory authorities and share my experience publicly to prevent other users from experiencing the same thing.


Thank you in advance for your understanding and reconsideration of my request.

Thank you for your reply, fifsa23. I understand that this situation is frustrating, but that doesn't change the fact that we cannot request the casino to refund a balance lost during regular gameplay. Withdrawal requests are frequently canceled for various reasons, not solely due to the casinos' decisions, as payment providers often reject transactions. Unfortunately, if you have no remaining balance, we are unable to investigate the circumstances further.


Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be closed. Thank you for your understanding. I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into any issues with this or any other casino in the future.
