Topic: Bitstarz Need help getting my deposit back/credited - page 2. (Read 477 times)

@OP despite the transaction having been successfully reflected and confirmed by many blocks. But you've probably read the feedback of most people about that casino.
You must have the idea now on what has happened and it's better to just accept the fact that you've made a mistake on choosing that casino to deposit.

If they had done some research first then they might have able to avoid on being scammed or facing up some headaches due to those kind of issues and its true that Bitstarz does have lots of

issues back in the past on where a simple research would really able to tell you this and if you have able to read up then its just common sense that you would really

avoid it and find another one which is more reputable and been trusted into this market.

I do not like these kind of rules either but at the end of the day it is their casino and it seems the minimum deposit was very clearly stipulated, and as such the one that is at fault is the one that opened this thread, it is an expensive lesson to learn but at the same time we must remember to always do our due diligence when using any casino for the first time, and if this means reading reviews and the TOS of the website so be it, as no one wants to go through a problem like this and lose their money before they have the chance to have some fun while they gamble.

There's no need to do that since no matter what the OP do bitstarz has a lot of issues already from the past and it is so sad to see someone still fall to that shady casino. Op didn't do wrong when it comes to sending some crypto but his mistake is that he trusted a shady casino which has a lot of complaints from the past until today. The casino probably take everything from their customers and my concerns is that they are still operating even though they were just scamming people. The authority should find these guys so that they will stop with their shady business.

Even if you go on trustpilot you will see that a number of players have had the same problem as you, did you check their reputation before going on about it ? Even though they have a legal license, the way they treat their customers should only be taken seriously when a customer is giving their review. Plus now a days there are numerous bots on the telegram which pays people to write reviews about God knows what and pays them for that or even to make some videos and etc.. therefore I think you should ask them again, since they have a license you should try and file a complaint against them and at the end of the day, you do need to look into a different casino certainly, sorry for your loss.
-Make a seperate post in the scam section I do hope they listen to you and help you out in this case.

Secondly If it's the minimum deposit thing, you should be more careful and do state that as well, because you won't be able to get that back certainly. Sorry

I really do hope that you didn't send your coins to the wrong address. Otherwise, consider it gone because there's no way of retrieving it unless the active user returns your funds back to your account. Now, if the address you have sent your coins is correct, maybe the reason why your deposit isn't reflected yet on your account is that you sent an amount that is below the minimum deposit that the casino has implemented. Most often this is the problem the players encounter mainly because the casinos do not really do the necessary steps to improve their service, hence, the players suffer. Once you try to deposit a certain amount that did not meet the requirements, your deposit will be forfeited. You will receive no deposit to your funds and most frequently they weren't really able to get their money back. I don't know if the casinos not updating the users about the minimum deposit before their transaction is done on purpose or what. Because this has been a problem for some time now not only in casinos but to other exchangers as well.

I just hope that the casinos and exchangers will address this problem and make necessary solutions to make it convenient and secure to the end of the user. Because after all, they make profits because of their patronage and if it weren't for them, they won't be making money so they should make sure at the very least to make their clients well-taken care of, giving them great products and services and not treating them like trash.

It really depends on the rules of each Casino, unfortunately this is the fault of the player and the Casino cannot be blamed, it is in the Bitstarz FAQ.

So OP has lost the money, it will never credited.
That's why it's important to read the FAQ at the Casino, especially if it's the first time playing and making a deposit otherwise something like this will happen.

I am not expert in regards with transactions but I think they have some kind of minimum deposit and also with withdrawal. Before, I experienced this on 1xbit since they have minimum deposit before but the contact said I just need to fulfill the remaining of the minimum deposit to reflect it on my balance. About the wallet manager I think the contact is referring to the wallet you are using?

I do not think the site will credit the balance to his account because he already made a mistake. It is a lesson to @OP and us always to double-check the amount before we click Send button. I do not want to use Ethereum to send for playing gambling because the gas fee does not make sense to me. Reading TOS will be a must for gamblers who often play gambling on many websites because the TOS will not be the same for all casinos.

It's possible for sites to have the same minimum deposit and withdrawal but then again there are a lot of sites that also allow smaller deposits.

I'm guessing it's one way to avoid receiving a lot of inputs, I remember sportsbet had a similar case before where the user made a deposit below the minimum amount and luckily sportsbet was nice enough to credit the amount manually then it served as a warning to follow their minimums at all times.

I don't think he can get his money back. Consider it as lost already. Because if there is minimum deposit of 0.01 ETH, then it is clear that he didn't reach that minimum because you need to deduct the gas fee. It is not included in the amount of deposit. So I believe, it is not the site's fault here. Though they can always extend help to players like him because that will give them additional player if they resolve his problem. But if not, you can't press them because he didn't follow their limits. This is the reason why it is always best to check the minimum limits in terms of deposits and withdrawals to any site, not just in gambling platforms, because this simple condition will eat your funds, and that is your negligence. 

That seems like the correct answer, we must always read the terms of service of any platform in which we decide to send our cryptocurrencies, it is a known issue that some casinos decide to take advantage of their position and then they charge huge fees that are not really necessary in order to increase their profits, now we know the fees of the ethereum network can be very expensive but still some casinos and exchanges are taking advantage of that fact and overcharging their customers.

I’m sorry to hear that. I don’t know if that is acceptable, and if they are allowed to just not explain the reason why they can’t credit it. With regards to the identity of the wallet manager, if they decline to disclose it, perhaps there is a legal contract that states its confidentiality. In that sense, it is really challenging, and uncertain, for you to get your money.

I disagree... if the minimum deposit is not clearly indicated or if they say one thing in the ToS and do another thing ..then it is wrong. (no debate needed)

If they are willing to scam people out of $20 .... then they are a Mickey Mouse operation and then you are better off not gambling with them in any way. Just imagine your disappointment if you win $100 000 and they do not pay that out to you. 

In that case, OP really did made a mistake. Perhaps, OP could try to contact and talk the support team out of this, if he would be allowed to send in extra ETH for the amount needed to fulfil the full required fees.

That means OP's deposit was not credited because it did not reach the minimum deposit.

OP, if the site will not credit it, they have the right because you didn't follow the terms of deposit, just consider that as your mistake and hopefully you'll learn from that mistake. Before signing up in a site, make sure you read all the TOS so you'll not make a costly mistake that would only make you discourage playing with the site.

Don't expect that they will give you. They are probably under contract with a third party that manages their wallets and I think it's a common practice among fiat turned crypto casino. Most likely, they are not allowed to disclose those information under the terms of the contract.

Ether fees are not controlled by Bitstarz.

If you have already made your deposit there is really nothing you can do.

Next time, either use a lower fee coin or choose a better time to send your transaction when there is less congestion on the ETH network. But the fees that you have paid seem to be quite standard for ETH.

Have you tried reaching out to their support regarding this matter? You should try to ask them about your deposit so there'll be a justifiable reason why your funds aren't reflected. If you didn't reach the minimum withdrawal, at least you'll have an idea about your mistake. I hope you could still manage to recover your unreflected funds.

So it could be he has not reached the minimum withdrawal but he passed the minimum deposit for about €20, which is equal to 0.00572 eth according to the price now. But on their https://www.bitstarz.com/payments page.


It says that the minimum deposit for ethereum is 0.01 eth so it is different than what it's written on their https://www.bitstarz.com/faq page.


I am a bit curious about this but I do not know how to check it But I am not surprise if @logfiles found their reputations, thanks to him.

You can do now just wait for their reply and hopefully, you can see the funds in your balance. I do not know whether they will send it to your account or was already lost with all of the above replies.
