I used my temporary chime **** credit card to deposit funds about 3 weeks ***** to winning a few dallar.Upon willing and tring to withdraw the fund they send me a verification to send pics of all cards I had used to deposit since account was opened.i sent them documentation for regular cards and a pic of my virtual credit showing my name .was told they couldn't accept that and that I would need a bank statement. However when you receive your permanent card the temporary card vanishes like it never existed all information transferred to new ******* bank statement nor bank no I have access to the temporary card and therefore absolutely no way to verify it to firekeepers besides the one pic I have in my phone.even tho it wasn't used to deposit when I won because I couldn't verify it they refused to pay but would put ot back on my account so it could be played with.(how nice of them.)Business response

The account in question has zero funds in it. A withdrawal isn't possible.
Patron sent in virtual card and we requested bank statement showing the deposits. The statement sent in for the dates of the deposits (August 31) did not show any deposits to Firekeepers .
An investigation produced multiple irregularities, including the used/attempted 7 cards. We found another account related using 4 of the same cards , and sharing the same device. Absent answers to these questions, a payment cannot be made.
Card is not listed as prepaid

I put money into a game and won.(I cant remember the amount I put into the game or the amount won. I do know it wasnt even 100 dollars) but even so I won it so I want it. The chat person told me in order for me to get my money in a check they would have to close my account) I agreed because I wasnt going to play their casino games again. I have emailed them several times about my winnings and still havent gotten a response. Not one response and its been 3 weeks. I cant even chat with anyone else because my account is closed which now I think was the plan to not give me my money. Its ridiculous people put their money into these casino apps and when the person wins, the casino apps dont wanna pay out or they ask for all kinds of personal informationBusiness response

We are sorry the guest is upset regarding timeline for payment. The reason is - An encrypted email was sent to the player on 9/3/2024 requesting a couple of verification ID's. This is standard on a first withdrawal to secure the safety of the account holder. We have not received any response since. If the guest would review the email and reply with information, we can move to sending the check.Initial Complaint

This this company is making it hard for me to get my remaining funds in my account with their online gambling application. They are not responding to me and trying to not give me my $1300 after winning. Were taking my money when I was losing fuss with them every day now that I won, they are trying to make it hard and even close my account down with them to prevent me from collecting my winnings reached out to them via chat because there is no phone number to call with online gambling services. I also drove three hours to speak with someone directly inside of the Casino on site, there was no help. I have yet to get any of my funds back that was left on the account before they closed or blocked it , I was trying to get my fundsBusiness response

Action on this account was held up due to statements made by the guest to customer service. That has been reviewed and the guest will receive all funds, via a check. This process can take 7-10 days but guest will receive 100% of funds.Customer response

Requested a withdraw and have had all documentation submitted. **************** has not been helpful with responding to my questions. I feel as though Im getting the run around and I cant speak to anyone on the phone aside from the casinos online manager since they use a third party. Its been 5 days since I requested my withdraw and still no update.Business response
08/11/2024
We apologize for any delay but there is an investigation of this case, as Compliance needs to ensure the activity on this account is not in violation of payment usage in the name of a player currently on a cool off period. We are seeking to close the investigation asap.

Trying to withdrawal money from the Sportsbook, will not even talk with me unless I provide a utility bill, id, credit card, and bank statement which is absolutely ridiculousall other online gaming sites will have your money into your account within minutesevery time I upload all my information something comes back incorrectwas told you could not see the date on utility bill when clearly you could, when I expressed that, then my address wasnt clear enough, when I showed it was clearly on there, then they suddenly couldnt see the company for the water bill? I said your joking right all water bills are from the city you reside in.still wasnt good enough for them.sent in a bank statement, apparently that wasnt clear enough for them either even tho all information is on there.anything to not pay me my money.customer service is an absolute jokeowed over 1600 dollars and no one has any clue what they are talking aboutBusiness response

Standard initial withdrawal request documents. there is a substantial amount of fraud in the digital world and we are simply seeking to protect the rightful holder of the account.
Issue with the Utility Bill: *** player uploaded partial corners of what appears to be a statement but no mention of what the bill is for, nor does it show the player's name. It just says "Occupant" instead of the name. Occupant is a concern. We need a proper UB that shows the utility service information such as the letterhead/header of the utility company, the player's name, address, statement date, and at least the top portion of the page visible all within one image.
*** issue with the Bank statement: *** statement the player uploaded only shows the Member Number and not the actual Account number. We request an image of a VOIDED check instead, as the check will have the account number needed.***re is no issue restraining any guest from accessing their rightful funds from the account.

This is a 100% account protection process. The account was created less than a month ago and the user has 5 different cards used to deposit. We have had multiple failures from some/each of these cards, which prompted us to verify the cards to ensure it wasn't a stolen card/fraud attempt.
The player so far has provided proof of 1 of the 5 cards and the **** We are still waiting for the uploads of the remaining 4 cards.Initial Complaint

I recently discovered (when calling Firekeepers Casino) that their online casino is managed by an outside company that doesn't have a customer service phone number. I had accidentally used my wife's card (we have the same last name) that was stored on the account...we both have accounts. I won $1900 and they are blocking my account because of the card discrepancy. Per their request, I have uploaded my credit card, my wife's credit card, my SOCIAL SECURITY CARD, my last DTE Bill, my license, and my checking account statement. The only thing left is my first born son!!! Now...they are ignoring all emails and have blocked my account. I have called Firekeepers management...even asking if this company is out of the country...this is unbelievably sketchy.Business response

This is an ongoing issue with this guest. His spouse had an account and blocked herself from igaming activity. Which makes her a prohibited user. All payment methods are his wife's and even the email is associated with her name. An attempt by any guest to circumvent a PB blocked through use of another account is a clear violation of our Terms and Conditions. An investigation is underway and a determination will be made shortly.Business response

the only $1000 withdrawal that I see was approved on 04/25. Perhaps she doesn't realize that it was processed to a different account than she normally uses. ACH 04. On her next withdrawal we will need that account verified.Initial Complaint

I made a deposit of $20 on the IFirekeepers Casino app on 04/13/2024. I hadn't played on the site in quite sometime, but did not remember why. I now know. So, I deposit cash via my debit card on to the site. I play for an hour or so and decide to cash out. Upon trying to withdraw $25, I find it impossible to make a withdraw. Same payment type, **** Debit is not an option. The only option available to me was ACH to my bank account or at **********************. There is a dropdown of accounts to withdraw to. Neither of which are my accounts. I contact **************** via chat to learn how to correct the bank account for a withdrawal. After about ten minutes of repeating myself, we get back to my original question of how to make this correction and I am advised that my account is going to be closed due to "lack of familiarity with these payments" and they will elevate this to their risk team for further assessment. It appears that you can make a deposit but you can't do a withdraw.Business response

We apologize but, unfortunately, withdrawal directly to your account is not possible. We are working to add this service.Customer response

Complaint: 21572904
I am rejecting this response because: it is vague. Directly to your account means what? What account? Bank account, Credit Card account.what account? They did not address the issue. How do I withdraw, period? Why are they closing my account for trying to withdraw a measly $25?
Sincerely,

There was miscommunication, which we apologize for, as it relates to the blocking of the account. the **************** rep believed (incorrectly) that the guest was advising there was fraud with the account. We apologize.The account has been reinstated. Communication to the guest explained what documents are needed to withdraw and also advised how to register for VIP Preferred and gave her the phone number to contact them to update or delete bank accounts.
Account is now unlocked and we will seek to support the withdrawal in any way we can.
