Slow Withdrawals due to... The Christmas Period..?

[paul7388]

That isn't the answer. Why on earth would you want a card attached to every casino you play?

Just get a Neteller account and a Net+ card. Then you can do exactly as you describe from every casino.

The difference to him is that unlike casinos that maybe take hours to process withdrawals or even days. Those casinos that have those cards including bookies like William hill you don't need to even ask for a withdrawal. You simply go to cash machine and take money out instantly as long as you have enough in your account to do it.

No pending times and instant access to winnings even on days like Christmas day.

Made a withdrawl at videoslots today via neteller and was done within an hour. Even card verified today before my withdrawl. They just get it right all the time.

Has anybody else been told this?

One of my regular casinos, usually I get payment in 1 hour, now over 13 and counting...

CS tell me 'Due to the Christmas period it is very busy at the moment. All requests are reviewed and processed in between 24-48 hours'

Well, the 23rd is not a bank holiday... Maybe more people are playing... but a so far 13 fold increase in processing time?

Not sure...

They leave it reversible of course. Hmm..

If I ran a casino, I would speed up withdrawals at Christmas time - people have more time to redeposit then ;p - or use it on some shopping!

I was playing at Maple Wed night, called them before I withdrew, and it was processed Thursday morning when I got up. Bless their hearts!

I have been waiting 100 hours from Lucky247 (accredited). I put in the withdrawal long before Christmas. It has been a work in progress ever since. Soon the only casino I will be depositing at will be Video Slots. Why give these other casinos a chance to screw around with my money. I won, now pay me.

Whats the score with the withdraw? That place is getting terrible, I know its accredited but I think there treading on thin wire

I know what rating I would give them. It is now 5 days and counting. Thing that also makes me mad is not even an email from Lucky247 explaining why the delay. This is a small withdrawal of 143 dollars. Do they not realize when they delay it just costs them more money in the long run as they lose customers. They really want you to reverse the withdrawal even though they will tell you otherwise. Of course they will blame Christmas as a reason they are behind but this withdrawal went in 4 days before Christmas so that excuse doesn't fly with me.

Of course they want you to reverse.Exactly what other part of their operation or any other casino's 'slows' down over Christmas or any other time? Deposits are able to be made,all games are able to be played,bonus offers still come out.Strange isn't it that the only thing that suffers is the one thing that removes money from their coffers.
Someone else said earlier in the thread that its a 24/7 365 day a year business and that hits the nail right on the head.Of course people have to get time off,fall sick etc. but if your running a business that operates all the time you have to put things in place that all elements work not just cherry pick the aspects that do in order to create a better bottom line for yourself and create this 'back door stalling policy'.If you don't agree with that imagine each deposit required someone from payments to 'authorise'.Damm sure in that scenario there would be cover 24/7 365.
Not wishing to cross post but there is another thread 'the slow death of the online casino bonus' which I've been reading and one thing strikes me.Give me personally a multi platform casino that pays withdrawals instantly to ewallets (or process's automatically to CC's) like Ladbrokes used to do and it gets ALL my business.Of course the argument will be raised that i'll stray at the start when I get good offers to play elsewhere but these inevitably dry up once they realise that without a bonus and not being able to offer instant withdrawals all my non bonus play reverts back to my 'instant' site.For me anyway pretty much the only thing that matters is that I will get paid and quickly,the rest is all just smoke and mirrors.

Oh how I wished casinos did process over the Christmas period. I have managed to reverse at least £200 from winning positions because I couldn't be bothered to wait the four bank holidays before anyone even lifts a finger......which in hindsight makes me wonder why the hell I even bloody bothered depositing during this 'festive' period

Which is precisely why casinos that cannot deal with withdrawals during this time shouldn't accept deposits either then! Using Christmas as an excuse is just another in a long line of stalling tactics that most players are sick of as it is. Get with the times already!!

I can hear you, happened to me last Christmas.

This year i played at Videoslots and got paid in minutes.

Well I have £475 pending since the 23rd at 32red but I know the score when it comes to their slow withdraws and did not expect any movement from them until after Xmas.
But wont reverse it. And am not desperado for the money so can wait. If I want to play will just make a straight fresh deposit which 32red do allow even with a withdraw pending.

Video slots on the other hand seemed not to have stopped processing had a withdraw Xmas eve as normal under an hour. Cant speak for Xmas day as did not play and no withdraw.

But golden rule never ever reverse - 9 times out of 10 it does not work in your favor.

My withdrawal request from the 18th is still pending.

It's not the same. You still have to wait days/hours for the casino to process the withdrawal to the Neteller card.

With the current betting sites you do it all yourself. Customer support don't get involved at all.

You win $$$'s on the site, you transfer the amount you wish to withdraw across to the attached card balance on the site, and then you can withdraw it from the ATM immediately if you want. Takes less than a minute to have the money you've won withdrawn from an ATM and into your pocket. There is no waiting time.
