Casino charging 25.00 ewallet fee for withdrawal?

[diamondale]

Well im not going to mention the casino but i been playing for 10 yrs and never was charged a fee for ewaLLET from the casino 25.00 this is unheard of just because they cant do wire transfers or checks charge me as fee? look below this is the response i got


Thanks for contacting me. We do very quick withdrawals and we allow for one free withdrawal a month but there is costs associated with all additional withdrawals. This is not something I can do anything about. It is a policy. For our regular players as well as VIP


There telling me all casinos charge a fee of 25.00 looks like ill be looking somewhere else to deposit this is not fair If im wrong ill eat my at but i know im not. Not using any names they know who they are

The way things are going as of late online, getting paid and getting paid quick might be worth the $25.00 dollars.

Think things out before you over react.

thats not the point, No casino charges 25.00 to send money to ewallet nobody im already paying 10% to get it sent to my bank

This is VERY unusual, and to try to cover it up with a blatant lie (all casinos charge this) is rogue behaviour. Most casinos do NOT charge for ewallet withdrawals, and the few exceptions that I know of charge MUCH MUCH LESS than $25.

Intercasino charge $1/£1
Purple lounge charge $1/£0.50

The ONLY time other casinos make larger charges is when they see large movements of funds in & out with relatively little wagering. This is to discourage it.

If they are saying 1 free withdrawal per month, then once you withdraw, don't deposit for another month, play elsewhere. This will surely cost them more than the savings they make by charging $25 per extra withdrawal.

Casinos DO pay fees, but most do NOT pass it on to the player, believing it will discourage them from depositing.

Name an Shame I say

just shame...no name needed

For a low roller, this is prohibitive, although a high roller might not be overly bothered, except on principle.

I have NOT seen such large fees for EVERY withdrawal option elsewhere, this is HIGHLY unusual, since casinos normally pay all the fees for the player if their deposits and withdrawals are considered "fair use", that is - they deposited because they wanted to play.

Their policies also make it even MORE prohibitive to use more than one deposit method, since single withdrawals after numerous deposits from different methods CANNOT all be sent to the same method, since the deposits have to go back to where they came from, which looks like a whole load of fees will add up just for a single withdrawal.

Once players encounter this, they may well decide to move on to another casino, where these charges are NOT made EXCEPT for the premium services.

Hi all,

I'd be telling them to bang it

As VWM suggests it's restrictive to low rollers. Especially when on average players may make 10 or 20 deposits. Of these, it's likely they only make play through (if on a bonus) once and enough to cash out once, for what maybe, only $500 or so.

I'm sure most of these players are still in the hole.

To expect these players to wear a withdrawal fee, is nothing short of penalising players who win.

As a high roller even though the fees would hurt me, I still wouldn't pay them. On the basis of what VWM said, principle.

Though it would be highly likely that higher rollers would have these withdraw fees waived by casino management.

All in all it's BS...I'd be playing someplace else.

It's not about shaming them it's about giving other players a heads up.


Cheers

I agree. it is not about shaming them. But if this is a change in policy, you state you have played there for 10 years, then we all need to know. I don't go in and read every time I deposit to see if there have been changes. That is what is great about casinomeister. Because we all find these things out. I say name, so the rest of us know if this is also a place we regularly play. So much has changed since january that it is making it so it is not worth playing.
