Far too early to even CONSIDER this weapon. The threat of a chargeback can often make things even worse, as the casino fears they will pay you, and you will STILL charge back the deposit, or that you have already disputed it with your bank, and may have lost control of the process. This could lead them to holding back for WEEKS just to ensure there is no chargeback.
In most cases, a deposit will be returned, eventually, so a chageback does not achieve the main objective anyway, payment of winnings.
Casinos also keep a blacklist of "dangerous" players who are high risk of charging back deposits, which might make life tough at other casinos.
A complaint to eCogra would be a good step though, but since you got the money it would be about poor service and lack of proper communication, rather than refusal to pay.
I have made a complaint myself about another casino group that was constantly cocking up payments to my Neteller account, resulting in them thinking they had been sent, when they hadn't, or had been done not in accordance with their own merchant terms with Neteller, and thus declined BY Neteller. 9 months of getting several different excuses during numerous incidents, a complaint to eCogra flushed out the CORRECT reason, and the appalling levels of non-communication between operator and processor, despite them both being in the same location, coupled with CS having little or no idea what was going on, and accounts ignoring even INTERNAL emails from them so they could then help me.
This looks very similar. Different departments not communicating, and CS just making it up as they went along, rather than saying "F*** knows" to you
CS often give the most likely reason for a delay, but make it sound like they have actually investigated and found it to be the DEFINITIVE reason. This works, provided things sort themselves out in the end, and no other rep offers a DIFFERENT "definitive reason" to you.
