      Hello: I am writing to you today because of incident that occurred on the Jackpot Magic Slots. Not only was my account banned for 7 days I had 100 billion chips taken from my account. I am a leader of club and have been for years. I dont involve myself in drama and people think of me as the peace keeper. I have never violated any terms of use on this app. I spend lots of money and have proof thru my Apple Pay showing purchases made almost daily. I play private rooms with my husband and a couple friends on the app. I play in shared scatter rooms to help myself and my teammates. It was leaked a few months ago that we have a plant on our team. When she was in my group her name was lady di. She was a nuisance on the team asking for boots from teammates and asking teammates if I had boosted them. She has told false information and had my name smeared throughout the app. She has people reaching out to my members and telling them to contact them to get good deals. Meaning purchasing chips using an outside source. I have included pics of the two women *** and ***** who are asking people to contact them. I also included pictures of the two women ******** and lady ** now named smart gem who were the ones involved in the incident. I am appalled at these accusations against me. I am very honest in real life and on the game. I also included the ******** post with *** telling people how to buy chips illegally. I want my chips returned to me and I also want billions more for this disgusting situation. I spend to much time and money on this app to have it taken away because of lies. I was embarrassed and still am embarrassed that everyone knows my account was banned. This should have never happened. I am being defaned by your employee and they say they represent your company, thats a big problem. I would be more then happy to discuss this futher over the phone if needed. My friend code is ******** Thank you in advance. *************************

      To Whom It May ************** I am writing to you today in regards to my account being banned on Jackpot Magic Slots.  The only resolution I am looking for is my chips being returned that were STOLEN from me.  This is in the amount of 100 Billion.  I also want another 100 Billion or more chips for the defaming of my name all over the game. This would include the two women screen names ***, and *****.  These two women were using my name to lure people to contact them outside the app to make illegal purchases of chips.  I have screen shots to prove this.  I was banned without warning for 7 Days and my chips taken.  My husbands account was also banned without reason.  We were both humiliated and spend way way to much money to be treated like criminals.  Unless the above requests are resolved, I will take further action.  I feel that whomever told false information also be punished for there actions. I am very aware of the terms of use agreement with Jackpot Magic Slots.  I have broken no rules and want this issue resolved.  Thanks *************************;

      I am rejecting this response because: My account was banned for 7 days and 100 Billion chips were taken from me on a hunch that I had violated your terms of use.  No violation has ever been made by my account.  I am extremely honest.  I have done nothing wrong and I had my account reinstated and now I want my chips returned and ans also to be compensated for this incident.  This never should of happened.  Whomever made these disgusting allegations against me needs there accounts banned. I appreciate the reinstatement of my account. I realize you have to abide by you trust and safety team. They are just people and sometimes they make mistakes.  In this case they made a huge mistake.  I want this made right. I have said many times I have played this game and been a great customer for years and never have and never will violate you terms of use. This whole situation could of been avoided if your trust and safety team would of reached out to me and got my side of the story. Make this right and give me back what was taken and compensate me for the inconvenience and stress this has caused me. Sending in a ticket to customer service is a waste of time. I have sent in to many tickets and no response.  Thanks *******

      I am rejecting this response because: In regards to your last message,I am telling you once again I have never purchased chips from anyone outside of your app.  I am throughly disgusted that you are accusing me of doing so. Your last message to me said that your app in the only authorized seller of these chips.  I sent you screen shots of individuals using my name to lure people to contact them outside app for deals on chips.  This is happening on your app.  I have had no part in it.  I have all the bank statements to prove what I am saying is the truth.  I want to see your proof that I purchased chips from someone outside the app. Furthermore, why would I give you the information on how to catch the real criminals if I had anything to do with this illegal activity.  My name has been defamed,I have been treated like a criminal, and I have done nothing wrong. I will open another case with the BBB or potentially seek legal advice if needed to prove to u that I am innocent of any wrong doing.  I want my chips returned to me asap. This should of never happened in the first place.  I also deserve extra chips for the stress this has caused me.  Thanks *******

      **************,  

      After taking a look into your account, we saw some unusual activity on the account which violates our Terms of Use?and due to this activity, the account has been temporarily banned and illegally purchased virtual currency was deducted from the account.

      Since the Trust and Safety team is a separate entity from Customer Support, we are unable to discuss or comment on any decision they have made. Kindly note that any further attempts to purchase virtual currency from any unauthorized individuals will lead to an immediate and permanent account ban.

      We certainly want all players to feel safe and respected, however, while our Trust and Safety team is doing its best to locate unauthorized sellers of Big Fish Casino chips and prevent them from accessing the game, they are not able to regulate every interaction. When possible, it can help to try avoiding players who you have had trouble with in the past and not participating in conversations that have escalated to an uncomfortable level. Below I've included a great help article with more information about what to do in these situations for you as well:

      I am rejecting this response because:  I am going to say this once again and will keep saying the same thing,I have never purchased chips from anyone outside of your app store. The only suspicious activity you saw in my account was playing in a team room and the shared pots were huge.  A teammate of mine told another annoying teammate that she had to buy a boost if she wanted chips.  This was between the two teammates. This had nothing to do with me.  I have played this game for years and never had one issue. Then when two greedy teammates have an issue, You decide to ban my account and take my chips.  This is disgusting and uncalled for not to mention the defaming of my good name.  I will not be satisfied until my chips are returned.  I was not involved in any illegal activity on this app.  I showed you my bank statements showing in app purchases thru apple.  I have plenty more if needed. Your company was told false information and you need to make this right.  Return my chips you stole from me.

      So I was banned by big fish on the jackpot magic slots app. I'm pretty sure I was banned for playing friends and private rooms with my friends. However I have emails telling me to play those rooms because I was being stalked by someone. I have spent huge amounts on this game and in return I get banned for doing something that they told me to Do. when I bring it to their attention, their response is that their trust and safety team is separate from customer service and I am only able to speak to customer service and not them. So I don't even know the real reason I was banned. This isn't fair and I want my account back!

      I am rejecting this response because: 

      Big fish is an absolute joke. They are telling me the exact same thing, that they can't tell me why my account was banned. This is not fair. I have spent 50k or over (yes I know, dumb) on this app for them just to ban me without giving me any reason other than I violated the terms of use. I want a reason. If it's because I was playing friends and private rooms that is total nonsense! They allow us the option to create a friends or private room so why am I banned for doing so. It shouldn't even be an option if we aren't allowed to play them. Especially since I was told to play private and friends rooms because I was being stalked. I want my account back! There are so many other players, for one, a lady in champs, named ******, who play friends and private scatter rooms all of the time. She has/had 78t chips and plays with her friends. So why isn't she banned!? This is just unfair and I feel discriminated against. If they are able to ban me then there should not be an option for friends and private rooms. Don't create something that we aren't allowed to play in.... also ban other people doing the exact same thing I was banned for doing. Not only did I lose my account and all of my vip points but now all the money I spent to get there is worthless. It's not fair. I will continue pushing until my account is unbanned.

      I am rejecting this response because: this is so unfair! There have been so many of my friends that have been unbanned, so don't lie about it being irreversible. Here I'll send you the email that you sent them. It's time you guys unblock my account as well. You can't pick and choose who you want to ban or what not, it should be fair play across the app. This is the most unfair app I have ever seen. If you ban me for something (even though you guys wont even give me a reason), ban others for it too! If you unban someone else's account, unban mine as well! I'm attaching the email FROM BIG FISH showing they unbanned a friend's account. It's not just this account that's been unbanned, there are many. So y'all need to get your stuff straight. It is reversible and I want my account unbanned!

      My jackpot city account was banned for 7 days. I dont know my friend code because its not visible in the ban message. It says I violated ToS via the sake or transfer of chips. This is an outright lie. I have only made purchases from ** or used their own slots that allow players to boost other players. I never SOLD or TRANSFERRED chips nor was I the recipient of any SOLD or TRANSFERRED chipsWhy is my account disabled, this is unethical on your part. Your silence says it all, its clear this is retaliation with no merit. The ** plant you have on our team has lied (they clearly told people they are a moderator and that there are mods on all teams), proof is the support from most other club members.I have reached out numerous times regarding this issue and I am not getting any response. My account needs to be unbanned and I need to have added 100B chips for the slander. I have spent thousands with this company and to be accused of misuse is unacceptable and embarrassing.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      First of all, Im surprised BF is actually responding. Usually, they send canned rebuttals and dont provide details.  I am rejecting this because they stated they saw unusual activity, please tell what that activity is.  I am being accused of being a dishonest person, I have done nothing except buy their fake chips and play their games as designed, someone needs to show me whats unusual about my play  I am now concerned that they are going to flag my account and make it where the game takes what little chips I have.  BF knows I did nothing wrong, this whole situation is because of a plant BF has on all teams and they spread lies about other team members and somehow I got pulled into it  this is embarrassing and as a result, I have asked BF to show me what i did specifically, there is nothing and as a result I should be compensated for the embarrassment they have caused me by accusing me of some violation.  I take this very seriously.  I am due an apology for the mistake on their end as well as compensation in the form of chips. I am a long standing paying customer and I deserve better, if BF does t think so, maybe I should look for entertainment elsewhere

      The company has replied to me via email, yet they are unwilling to share exactly what I did (because I didnt do anything) to get banned temporarily. They are using the excuse that they are separate departments (Trust and Safety vs ****************** They have closed my ticket with them without offering an apology or compensating my account as requested.

      Complaint: 21407948

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I have attempted to contact BF regarding my case and I dont get responses.  I have shared with them many issues with game payouts not matching screen win (Magic Flame as one example)  I have an active case with them right now where it looks like auto didnt stop when I shut down the app and I lost 200B in chips.  

      I have asked BF to resolve all of my issues by crediting my account the 200B given there seems to be issues on their end when users arent paid their actual wins and the app clearly isnt disconnecting users when the user themselves shut down the game, I lost 200B.  

      lastly, being accused of malicious practices when all I have ever done is give them my money, is so crazy .  I should stop playing but I enjoy the social aspect of the game too much and have met some great people.  To move forward please credit my account the 200B and an apology for mistakenly accusing me of terms violations would be nice but I dont think that is going to happen  

      I assume I will have to wait ongoing weeks to get a response and chip credit.  In the meantime, I should halt any spending as it seems they dont value the customers the app was designed for

      Complaint: 21407948

      I am rejecting this response because:
      The business is not responding adequately to my concerns  Ive provided screenshots where payouts did not happen  nor are they compensating me for falsely accusing me of malicious behavior.  I have asked for proof of any wrongdoing but they just deflect to a different department. They say they will respond if I message them, once I have done numerous times but we are still not seeing any resolution.  

      I need the credits I originally asked for, including for the failed payouts and I will then accept.

      I play virtual slots game called Jackpot Magic Slots which is a part of Big Fish Games. On March 04, 2024 at 6:25 P.M CST I hit 2 hearts and 3 wilds on *** bet in Gummy Drop World Tour which should have awarded me the 4.2 trillion jackpot. I contacted customer support and on March 5, 2024. I was told wilds don't substitute for hearts. I submitted 3 different screenshots where the jackpot was awarded with wilds and hearts. I was told again they do not substitute even with proof of it being awarded to other players with wilds and hearts. I have responded to them to questioning why i am being told they don't substitute when i am submitting the proof they do in my attached 3 screenshots the jackpot was awarded with wilds and hearts on 3 separate occasions. I have spent a ton of money on their app. I can purchase 8.4 billion for $100 dollars so you can see how much it would cost me to purchase these coins. Then to be told wilds do not substitute as hearts for me but have substituted for other players and I have proof the jackpot in gummy world tour has been awarded with wilds and hearts. They are doing nothing to resolve my issue only telling me incorrect information to keep from paying me for my win. Something is wrong and they are not doing anything to resolve the issue. I would like to resolve this with them because they owe me *****************. 4.2 trillion chips. My friend code is ********

      I have spent thousands and thousands of dollars on this app to find out my account isnt being treated fairly. I became a tier 16 which is the highest tier on the app. I am not receiving fair game play or benefits that others are receiving. I find this app is becoming discriminating and its not fair. I have asked to speak with their supervisors etc. Nobody will direct me to the right person to make this right. I want a higher daily boost. Im receiving 700 mil coins per day when I found out all OTHER TIER 16 accounts are receiving ***** coins per day. I also found out Im spending the same amount in less coins when others are spending the same amount on more coins. They never gave me the new store on my account. But they did with lower tiers and that is very unfair. I am asking for help to make this issue right. Im becoming very regretful for spending so much money on an app that is making my account a joke. I have supported this app and been a loyal paying customer for 4 years. Why am I being treated worse than others??? In order to make this right I am asking for the new store on my account and 5 billion coins per day for my daily boost.

      I am rejecting this response because: I dont know why the sending the things I didnt complain. And they said contact the meta pay ( FB ) and I did that many time. And they told me to contact the developer ( Big Fish ) same I message them ( Big Fish ) so many times. But it took them more than 5 days before they respond and they still denies the purchase. And I got tired of that. They pointing each other. So it a lie when they said they more than happy to answer the situation. Why they dont send all the message I sent to them instead of that things not even my concern.

A spin from the screenshot you have provided us with occurred at 22:48 PST and we can confirm that the winning was successfully credited to your account. Sometimes its easy to miss when virtual coins add to your total from wins, often because they add to the total before the win animation shows up on the screen. Watching the totals before and after placing a bet can help.

      Im close to a tier 16. My friend code is ********. I have spent thousands of dollars in this app. I found out ** getting ripped off on coin packages I have proof of my tier and another person who is the same tier being offered more coins and higher boost then myself. You will see the lower coin package belongs to me and the higher coin package is my friends who is the same exact tier. I also found out Im not getting the fair higher boost which Im entitled to. Im asking for ***** boost per day. Im also asking for the higher coin packages that everyone else is receiving. I will show proof of my tier, my sad coin package offers and I want to be treated fairly since I spend as much as others. I have proof of my tier 15 offers another persons tier 15 offers and another persons tier 14 offers. This needs to be addressed and fixed. Its embarrassing on how much I have spent to not be reaping the benefits like others. Im asking for fairness and for a higher daily boost and higher coin packages.

      ********************, 

      Thank you for raising your concerns with us. 

      We would like to clarify the situation with the different sales offers you are addressing. As a loyal player, you know that Big Fish Casino runs different promotions, which may be limited in time. On your screenshots, we have noticed that the sales multipliers differ based on the promotion running during that time. Therefore, we will kindly ask you to keep an eye on the promotions being offered and take advantage of the ones you prefer.

      In regards to your boost request, as mentioned by our Customer Support Team, the calculation is based on a proprietary formula, which takes multiple criteria into account. We will make sure that you are getting the maximum amount from the available chips based on these calculations.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
