PLAYTECH: the nightmare list

Playtech licensees currently appear to be out of control. Issues range from absurd slow payment, through cheap tricks into unashamed theft.

I felt a summary, with problems outlined with links and all casinos listed, would be useful in the main forum. Maybe Playtech will eventually work out it’s not in their interests to let this go on unchecked.


Giant Vegas:

Player denied a cashout of $4879; casino claims that game played was "excluded" – screenshot evidence proves otherwise; usual "fraud" allegations thrown in for good measure – unsubstantiated; affiliate programme manager cut his ties with the group as a result.

Swiss Casino:

Player denied cashout of $6000; casino uses the following magnificent justification: "we detected a pattern of bonus abuse in your play". LMAO – pretty serious pattern to justify a $6000 theft.

Vegas Red:

Casino uses quite EXTRAORDINARILY sneaky addition of vital terms & conditions hidden away at the very bottom of a barely-readable "user end agreement", when said terms could have easily been placed in with the terms of the relevant bonus, to deny a £1700 ($3200 USD) cash out. Practically every game is excluded from bonus wagering, meaning that practically every player who accepts the bonus will have his winnings revoked. A truly "no cash out" casino.

Grand Banks:

Too many to list; slow pay to the point of being realistically no pay.

African Palace / Indio:

Issues clearing up, but many debts remain:

Joyland:

At the very least, a $20,000 royal still unpaid; casino "mis-set" comp rate and lost a lot of money; blamed players and didn't pay. Playtech uninterested.

That a "major" provider such as Playtech allows this extent of rogue element amongst its licensees is remarkable.
