Good morning! My friend code is ******** in Big Fish Casino. I have been a big fish player off and on since 2007. Where at any time my friends could gift me virtual chips in any amount by gifting their gold to me Eg a suitcase in the amount of 500k chips to me or a safe in the amount of 2.5 million chips. The amount they gifted me would be deducted from their gold balance. I have enclosed screenshots about gifting virtual chips gold etc. Tap the player's profile picture.Tap View.Tap the Send Gift button.Tap Chips at the top of the Gift Store menu.Tap the Buy One button next to the virtual chip package you wish to gift. So now I have been advised that this can no longer be done except the person who buys the gold to gift themselves & depending on what Tier they are the amount they can gift them themselves. This has caused many players anger including myself. The comments other players are showing on their status pages about this change is not making for a pleasant experience and deterring other players from joining this game app. Why did it change after 10 years or so. I also asked my rep to delete my account because if your friends cant gift you gold because they want to help you why support a game app. ThanksBusiness Response

Good morning I have been a loyal paying customer to this company for many years. I have tried to reason with them and have them do the right thing but its impossible as they refuse to treat everyone with the same fairness. There have been many changes the last year and one of them was starting a new *** weekly program. I have been in the *** host program for years which has always been a privilege and acknowledged as such. I receive less than 1B virtual chips daily. In the new program the customers are receiving hundreds of billions and even trillions of virtual chips weekly. How do they think that is in any way fair and acceptable to those of us that have supported this company since the day the launched. I spend as much or more than most in the new program yet theyre being treated like royalty. My hands are tied as far as having to any chance to compete in any way. I have spent thousands of dollars the last few months trying to keep up and should have been switched over to the new weekly program but they refuse to do that. I believe because Im a senior and have an addiction they prey on that. I will include correspondence regarding this matter. I do and have loved this app and its become part of my life for more than a decade but how can this ever be acceptable? How are they allowed to treat us so unfairly and stay in business? An even bigger question is why would they do this in the first place? I hope they are able to see the unfairness, disaccord, havoc and animosity they are creating to those of us that have done nothing but support them in every way. I thank you for taking the time to help in this situation. I've added a photo of what someone that spends on the same level as me gets on a weekly basis while I get less than 7 B weekly Sincerely, *********************Business Response

In December 2023 while playing on their casino game they had an event offering awards for spending a certain amount of in game chips. I achieved this award over 40 times but the advertised number of free spins at a certain bet amount was not what I received. I notified them of this error. This second event happened in January of **** and again the award was different than what I received. I added this to my communication with them about the first issue. It has been well over a month and so far, the only thing they informed me of was that the engineers had fixed the problem for future events. They continue to neglect to resolve my issue of not being compensated for the error in their system to begin with. It has been well over a month of back and forth and not getting anywhere other than stating they escalated my issue to the relevant department and are waiting to hear back. No response since then. I am still sitting on the wrong awards that were given to me. I simply want a refund of the in-game chips I spent on those events that I received the wrong awards for or given an equivalent number of free spins at *** bet in a VIP room. My friend code: ******* I am not asking for the actual real money spent on the game, simply the fake in game chips returned. It would not cost the company anything.Business Response

**************,
We understand your frustration and send you our apologies for any inconvenience this incident caused you. Let us clarify that when you already have Free Spins in a slot, and you win more Free Spins, if the bet value is higher, then those spins are converted into lower bet spins so that you keep the true value of all your spins. To make spinning more convenient for you, we converted **** spins to 10 spins with the maximum bet. Feel free to open the Tiger Coin Wilds slot and enjoy your gameplay!

I am rejecting this response because:Your solution does not make any sense at all. The advertisement states that it is 6 free spins at 125K *** for the first event. It instead gave me 150 free spins at 5k *** amount. I completed and received this award so many times it added up to over ***** free spins. The second event advertised 6 free spins at 250K *** level. Instead, it gave me 300 free spins at 5k *** level. Adding up to the ***** free spins. LET'S DO THE ***** ***** divided by 150 (the amount I was given for an award) would be **** and given that fact I tried to spin away some of them would indicate I received that award about 45 times. Receiving the award 45 times at the correct 6 free spins per would be 270 free spins. The second event giving me 300 free spins instead of 6 again at a lower *** amount. The correct number of free spins if it actually did give me 6 free spins every time as advertised would be 276 free spins. Now you think reducing it all the way down from ***** to 10 is a fair trade off. No. It is not. The billions of chips spent to earn that award 45 times and it gave me the wrong reward then the billions spent to earn the award during the second event only to be given the wrong award again. Spending well over a month dealing with customer service and getting nowhere. Your solution is an insult. There should be 276 free spins and moved to a max *** in a VIP slot for the error in your system that was false advertisement, billions of in game chips that were used during your events and taking well over a month of frustration dealing with customer service that couldn't simply come up with an easy resolution to begin with but instead drag this out dramatically. No, I do not accept your solution as being anywhere near fair or accurate. 276 free spins moved to a max *** VIP slot or refund the billions of in game chips used during these two events that gave out the wrong award due to an error in your system and over a month of dragging this out. These would be fair solutions to this issue.

I am a daily big fish casino player. i also bought chips almost every week. Since last friday, my chips gifting privilege been revoked. I emailed bfc customer support . They said they saw unusual activity on my account and due to that my privilege was revoked and it was final. I emailed them back as i wanted to know what i did, what was that unusual activity because i did nothing wrong. And they ignored me and refuse to send me any answer. 1k gold = 2.5m chips i have over 250k gold and they refuse to swap my gold into chips. But i can still buy some gold without being able to use it. They also blocked the possibility for me to play at a private or at a friend table. So nobody can help me at a private table . BFC force me to play public table. i spent between a thousand to 2 thousands almost every months and since a week, i almost cant play. many different games are giving gold bar. I won for more than 625m of virtual chips in gold bar and i cant do anything with that gold. Some friends offered to help me until i got an answer from bfc and i realized i cant join or open private table anymore. Gold is not a privilege as i pay for my chips and sometimes i was paying for gold too. and i won gold with the chips i bought. To have some differents things like gold or private/friend table revoked without any proof or without any explanation , it is really ****** me off. i try to emailed them a few times and they said all my further email about my revoked privilege wont receive any response. Customer support told me it was a decision from the trust and safety team so i send an email to have a way to contact that team. Of course, there is no way to contact Trust and safety team or the moderation team. we can only talk with customer support and they refuse to give me any response to my email. I spent so much in this app and to be ignored like , i feel like they are trying to find a way for me to buy more and more by refusing to swap my gold into chips.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:i got the exact same response from the customer support. I want a proof. i want to know which part of Terms of Use i violated. i want to know what specific unusual activity they saw on my account.
I pay to be a vip player, im spending my a** for my chips every week and i deserved to know what am i suppose to have done that violated terms of use .
And it was not only about my gifting chips privilege, it was also because i cant play at a private or friends table. I asked why and i got no answer. i asked to swap gold into chips...no response...i asked for a proof about what i did and no response.
I dont have any clear answer about what i did wrong , i only got the same answer that you got and it means nothing to me. I wont accept to have some gold that i won with the chips i bought and to have nothing to do with it for no real specific answer and no proof. and i wont accept to not being able to join a table when a friend send an invite without any reason or proof! i Pay to play and now i dont have any access to many differents things on that game!
Give me the details, the specific reason, the specific terms of use i violated, show me the proof.

BigFish Games had a promotional code to get free games. It was code available to everyone in December 2023, there were no terms or any conditions to it being used more than one time. The code was used a few times and although I understand that originally it was not intended to be used more than one time per customer, the code could be freely used. BigFish realized their mistake and sent an email explaining that they would revert all these purchases as the code was meant to only be used once per customer. Fair enough and I completely understand. However they went ahead and decided to also ban accounts and block them from accessing games that were purchased and legally acquired before December 2023. My account was years old and although I told their customer service that I understood the reversal of the purchased games with this code, I was not ok with them banning my account and make me lose a years old account that I had been collecting and curating for my children. There are many customers that are very unhappy with what was done and you can see that in the TrustPilot reviews. I am asking for my account to be reinstated to a date before December 2023 so that this mistake of theirs could be corrected. However, there has been no response except for them saying that its their Trust and Safety team and that there will be no further communication.Business Response

As the account was banned for multiple usage of a single-use coupon code, we are not able to lift the block on your account because because our blocking system is irreversible. (and bold headline at the top of the page we advertised the coupon on stating that the code is for single use) It would be beneficial for you to review our Terms of Use in order to make sure that you never have to worry about something similar again:

I am rejecting this response because: There was no mention anywhere of it being a one time use, if you can provide a screenshot of what you are claiming then I will accept it, however at that time, there was no indication of this, check all the reviews since this happened and not one person said it was a one time use (and people did make sure). This is also just poor planning and executing on your part to set up a code that should only be a one time use and not program it accordingly.Like I said, I wish to regain my account before this incident, I do not care about the games acquired with this code and I was more than ok with you reverting these purchases using an incorrect programmed code.
Since you say the account blocking is irreversible, then I will accept you give me access to all the games I acquired legally before this incident with a new account. I can provide a list of these acquired games and make a new account. These ********************** had been curated for my children and were legally acquired through your website long before this incident.

I am rejecting this response because: This is a cookie cutter response that has no backing in what they are claiming and have no offered a single solution other than saying the ban cannot be reversed. If this is how they do business, then I understand why this business is rated so poorly everywhere.As I have said before, I am willing to compromise and accept a new account that had all the games I had legally acquired before this incident (going so far as to provide a list of the games that had been acquired). I however reject the cookie cutter broken record response and I do not understand how the BBB allows them to continue to do business with such practices and offer no solutions to customers.

I had bought a game back in 8/9/23 called "My Hobby: Needlework Fantasy Land for the pc and has soon as I clicked on it to play it it was so blurry that you could not tell where the play button was or the exit button. When I contacted Big Fish Games about it I even showed them a picture of the game on my computer and all they did was give me a coupon to replace it. I told them I wanted it fixed and that it was later told to me it was a bug but they have not yet fixed it to this day. I have been trying to find out if or when the fix will be out and they have not reply to my question and this is not the first game that I have from them that they will not fix I have a couple that I can no longer play. I will not buy any more games from them until they fix the games.Business Response

big Fish had a side game called chance. Where when you spun a certain amount of chips about 2 billion they give you tokens or tickets. Which, intern you would collect for prizes, free spins.Chips Chips and a few other prizes. It takes anywhere from 10 to 20 tickets or tokens to reach the top which was 93 million prize. And then would reset again for you to start over. I had over **** tickets when I went to bed and then when I woke up in the morning I had 10 tickets. Steel three days remaining on the promotion. I have emailed big Fish at least six times or more to correct this. And they never addressed my issue. They just sent me an email about something regarding tickets for something else which was not what my problem was.. I have explained on every email and they keep getting back to me with something other than what I was asking them for. Its they werent even reading my emails. I even sent screenshots to no avail. They keep coming back to me about tickets for something else which was not what I was talking about. The promotion is gone now and I lost out on billions and chips and hundreds maybe even **** for games. as I said it took about 15 to 20 tickets to get to the ****** million and I had ******************************************************************************************************************************** even resolve the issue and I feel Hurt and I feel like I have been cheated and nobody there is helping me even with all the emails that I have been sending so thats why Im making this complaint against them and hopes that they will fix the issue because I have no other option because they keep getting back to me with nothing and thats not right .Business Response

On December 16th at approximately 7:47 pm , I attempted to open up 11 Massive Chest . Upon attempting to open up the chests, the system wouldnt allow me to , It brought up a message saying ( Left table , would you like to rejoin ) At that time the system locked up on me . There system often does that when your trying to redeem chests . The chest amounts are extremely high in Massive this is away that they can get out of paying chest payments . It happened to me once before. I immediately took a picture, and I hit the main menu. When I hit the Man menu , the chest were no longer there. I immediately sent Big Fish a email , and without them investigating, they insisted that I send over proof, followed up by saying that all of the chest were paid . So in other words they blew me off . I am asking for 20 billion chips , I had 11 Massive chest.Business Response
