Hi, thank you for leaving your feedback. We take all reviews seriously and want to address this transparently.
First, we want to clarify that Promotional Coins are not redeemable if our terms and conditions were breached.
Second, after a thorough review of your account, our system did detect location spoofing activity. This is not simply a matter of using or not using a VPN — our detection tools identify a range of methods used to misrepresent a user's actual location. Unfortunately, when spoofing is confirmed, we are required to take action in order to maintain the integrity of our platform and comply with regulations.
We understand this is not the outcome you were hoping for, but this was not an arbitrary decision.
Hi, thank you for your detailed feedback. We'd like to address several of the points you've raised.
Regarding the surge in reports you've referenced — our fraud detection system recently went live, which naturally resulted in a wave of accounts being flagged around the same time. This is not a pattern of targeting players at the point of redemption. It is the expected outcome of a new system identifying violations that previously went undetected.
As for why we do not disclose the specific details of what triggered a flag — this is to protect the integrity of our fraud detection tools. Revealing technical details about how violations are identified would compromise the system and make it easier for bad actors to circumvent it. This is standard practice across the industry. In most cases, those who have received a ban are aware of what they did to trigger it.
We understand this can feel frustrating, especially if you believe the flag was made in error. We take every case seriously and are committed to maintaining a fair platform for all of our players.
Hi, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand this is frustrating, and we'd like to address your concerns.
After a thorough review of your account, our system detected bonus abuse activity. Bonus abuse detection is an automated tool that identifies irregular patterns and anomalies across accounts — it is not triggered simply by winning. 99.99% of players who win have redeemeed without any issues.
As outlined in our Terms and Conditions, which all users agree to upon registration, bonus abuse is a violation that results in account suspension. This action was not taken lightly or arbitrarily — it was based on the findings of our detection system and handled in accordance with our policies.
We do not ban players for winning, and we do not steal money. These claims do not reflect how we operate. This pattern is something all social casinos flag and ban respectively. It is not Gold Machine specific.
Hi, thank you for your feedback. We understand how frustrating this must be, and we'd like to provide some clarity.
Your account was opened back in January, and our fraud detection system flagged it for geolocation spoofing. We reached out to you at the beginning of April requesting proof of address so we could verify your account and resolve the issue. That's nearly 2 weeks where this could have been addressed, but unfortunately we never received a response or the requested documentation.
When proof of address is not provided within the required timeframe, we are unable to lift the flag on the account, which ultimately led to the ban. This was not done without reason — there were steps available to resolve it.
That said, if you'd like to resolve this, simply submit your proof of address to our customer support team and we'd be happy to review your account and work toward a resolution.
Hi, thank you for your feedback. We'd like to address this as there seems to be a misunderstanding.
We do not buy reviews, and account verification is never conditional on leaving a review. We have NEVER had anybody mention this.
Please be more mindful before posting lies that can harm an employee's job and livelihood as this is a serious violation that results in employment loss.
There are two completely separate processes. What happened is that we emailed existing customers asking them to write a review using a link that was sent — this is the same link you used to write this review. At no point was your account verification tied to whether or not you left a review.
If you are still experiencing issues with your account verification, we encourage you to reach out to our customer support team directly and we will be happy to assist you.
Hi, thank you for sharing your honest feedback — we truly appreciate it.
You make some great points about bonuses and player rewards. We're always looking for ways to improve the experience for our players, and feedback like yours helps us understand what matters most. We'll definitely take your suggestions about daily login bonuses and loyalty rewards into consideration as we continue to develop the platform.
We do want to clarify one thing — we did not offer SC in exchange for a good review. We emailed existing customers and asked them to write a review using the link that was sent. The review could be positive, negative, or anywhere in between — we simply value honest feedback from our players, just like the feedback you've provided here.
Thank you again for your input, and we hope to earn more of your time on the platform as we continue to grow and improve.
