Grosvenor Sports Review

Dreadful live platform. Played several hands of Blackjack, with not one game completed without lagging or interruption – couldn’t draw cards, neither stand or double down. Didn’t see one completed result until the hand had ended, then and only then saw my balance depleted! This issue is not my internet, as I play other live games, namely Roulette with absolutely no issues. Would not recommend this platform! Far better live games on alternative sites. Will not play on this site again! Stay clear is my recommendation. Clearly, by their rating on Trustpilot I’m not alone in my sentiments!

HIGH SCAM ALERT – AVOID

I have requested from them time and again for them to confirm the ability to win on their games is entirely down to other players suffering losses. For them to confirm the random number generator they go on about is not configured to pay a certain percentage (i.e. to replicate the percentages of a casino).

For them to confirm that if only 1 online machine existed it would be possible for the 'house' to make a loss.

They refuse to answer these questions because they do not want it publicized that you the gambler that plays on their site is 100% dependent on other gamblers losing in order for you to win. That Grosvenor will never see a losing day as all their table games are in effect glorified fruit machines (imagine a machine with 37 reels – that would be roulett) and just like fruit machines they are governed by a percentage payout which they claim to be random (it is not – the random number generator merely ensures the percentages are upheld in Grosvenor's favour).

So Grosvenor, I ask you yet again – and please do not respond with fair play and RNG's. Just answer the questions so that we can all see the truth.

No annoying advertising on TV , that is all I ask of a Casino or Bookmakers . Thankyou Grosvenor Casino .

WORST ONLINE CASINO – AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE

Make no mistake – online roulette with Grosvenor is like playing a glorified fruit machine. What ever happens no matter who plays no matter what the stakes your bet is against other players and your chances of winning are entirely based on other players losing and just like a fruit machine their is a random number generator that ensures Grosvenor Casino makes a profit regardless.

Give yourselves an early Xmas present; Request a lifetime closure of your account so that you can avoid donating any more of your hard earned cash to these thieves.

They deliberately mislead with fair games, fair reviews etc but they never actually explain in detail what I have done above – their random number generator will never allow them to make a loss – it is impossible for everyone to win.

To explain further – it is possible for several people all to go to a live casino and win – every single day, regardless of how small the odds are of that happening – it is still possible.

With Grosvenor Casino it is impossible to both win every single time and to lose every single time. Their software ensures that a certain percentage is always returned and they keep the rest. It's how they make their money.

Their online roulette games are nothing more than a fruit machine with 37 reels.

Do your friends a favour as well and ask them to request a lifetime closure and then post on your social media sites the same.

Collectively we can show them we are not prepared to be stolen from anymore through lack of transparency and honesty.

They will let you win at first then they will suck you dry don't be fooled by the payout percentages as 99.9% of them will pay under your stake don't mind losing but don't like blatantly getting fleeced and cheated out of my money these slot games will tease the bonus every other spin so you continue spending DON'T! will never play slots on here again!

I visited The Grosvenor Casino (Thanet) last Friday and I was overwhelmed by the whole experience.
You have excelled in your approach to keeping your clients and staff safe.
The security team were so professional and they were prompt in ensuring that all visitors followed the new rules.
It was lovely to see EVERYONE respecting each other and wearing the mandatory face covering.
Regular cleaning was in force throughout the evening and the staff worked tirelessly and even with their face coverings on they were happy and cheerful.
Thank-you Grosvenor Casino Thanet for a wonderfully safe experience- my first social outing since March – I would highly recommend a visit to this establishment and you can be confident that they are Covid Secure and will look after you.
I will be back soon to support you all 🙏🏻

STAY AWAY FROM THESE SCAM MERCHANTS

I shall continue to write negative reviews for Grosvenor Casinos until they come on here and tell the truth. They have responded to posts in the past but whenever called upon to give evidence they go mute.

Having previously posted about their rigged roulette game having spun over 3,000 spins before hitting number 11, I changed game and played 100/1 roulette.

Just as rigged. As a test I covered 95 possibilities leaving 10 numbers: 39 empty spins from the first 100 spins. 22 empty spins from the next 100 spins. 33 empty spins on the next 100 spins.

94 empty spins from 300 spins. The odds supposedly 95/10 in my favour.

Now we come to the crux of this and all other posts. We just want honesty and clarity. Nothing else.

I call upon Grosvenor to state here once and for all that when gamblers visit their online roulette tables they are effectively gambling against each other and the 'house' will never lose.

Anyone reading this for the first time and wondering 'what the hell', I'll explain it another way.

Imagine there is only 1 live casino and only 1 online casino and you are the only person betting. Each day you visit the live casino and bet red 50 times in a row.

Regardless of how miniscule the odds are every single scenario you can think of is a possibility. You can win every single spin, you can lose every single spin, you can win/lose 50%, any combination of win/lose scenario is possible. If you win every single spin you take the casinos money.

Now you repeat the same bet on the online casino. It is impossible to win or lose every single bet – the software used which incorporates a random number generator will force you to win some of the bets so that it effectively replicates the percentages of a real casino. It is impossible for you to lose every single bet you place and this alone should tell you how much online roulette is rigged. It is not you against the casino it is you against every single other player that bets and Grosvenor sit back and take their cut – they will never, EVER, have a losing day.

Do yourself a favour, go online, and request a lifetime ban on every online casino site that you visit. They have to adhere to your request and it cannot be reversed EVER. This way you will protect yourself from these scam merchants who blind side you with cash back offers, free spins etc.

My sister and I are members of Grosvenor Casino for many many years

We were even there on the last day before lockdown in March to support Grosvenor

Yesterday, 23rd September 2020 was the first time we decided it was safe to visit the Grosvenor for the first time since lockdown

Sadly, I was told that I needed to update my card as my ID has expired and I was refused admission
My sister was allowed in but as I was not allowed in , we went to the Empire instead

Having travel over an hour in this COVID situation and not allowed in , is quite an unacceptable treatment to their long time customers

It clearly showed that Grosvenor Casino does not value their customers

Grosvenor could have let my sister and I in yesterday afternoon and asked me to bring my ID on our next visit

I received no notification by post, email or text , that I need to bring an ID
My freedom pass was not accepted, nor my bank cards that night

How can you turn away your customers?

Completely rigged, horrendous RTP on blackjack. Have to jump through many hoops to get verified too! You will be dissapinted.

My computer broke and needed to be cleared off all Data. I reloaded everything with no issues, however the Grosvenor Poker Download will not open. I cleared the Cache and Run it as administrator, still wont open. Phoned support who could not help, basically I cant find anyone to help me resolve this. Tournaments have overlays and Im sat there wanting to deposit and play and I cant.

App is a bit glitchy, needs improvement
Super fast payouts (got a winning in my account in less than 2 hours, thank you!)
Great variety of casino games and live games

They verify you before you start depositing, and I find it respectful and honest.

I’d like to go enjoy a night at their real casinos one day!

Keep up the great work.

After a great night out and spending a good amount, we got evicted out for being gay after some other guys made a comment, and the management walked away from are conversation, really really not satisfied, will never return again, door man doing good job but management needs to get there act together.

Shocking service, I am black card holder and they have blocked me for spending above average.

Sent in financial records three weeks and still unable to play, Joined another major platform, again has the same financial checks and it took only 24 hours to sort out.

No apologies for the delay or cash bonus for keeping me waiting.

Account Suspension

My account was suspended over a week ago, with no warning . . .it just threw me off the site. Subsequently received an email asking me to contact the responsible gambling team. I fully understand and respect they have guidelines to follow.

However, I have tried every day to contact them and have held on the line, in many cases, for over an hour, but no response.

I have tried several times to contact the online chat, but have been told, by automated responses they are not able to help me.

I have raised a contact request – from their website – but still nothing.

I have money sitting in my account that I have not been able to access for over a week.

The total lack of customer service / support is very disappointing and I would certainly not recommend this site.

Found this actual site actually very good to use. Fast payouts, good odds and choices on sports. Initially my opinion was completely positive. no complaints Win, Lose or Draw. Thats until i had to use customer services.

I had placed a bet that was a winner and when coming back to collect my winnings i had seen my stake returned with no win. I had noticed when placing the bet the site was particularly glitchy which now upon reading other write ups i can see is common theme. However i was 100000% certain the bet was placed as i double triple quadtrouple checked.

After initially completely denying the bet was placed and there was any issues at all, they then not only told me the stake i had bet, but also admitted after me not giving into the lies there WAS actually issues with the site that were to be looked into. 10 days and 3 individual one hour conversations later I have not even received acknowledgement of the complaint let alone my winnings. Every convo making promises and then not keeping them. We are looking into this, a manager will look at it, its gone to the technical team, the person you initially spoke to does not work here, we will get back to you in 72 hours after a week has already passed, the deadline is then 10 days are just a few of the things i have been told by online chat. No deadlines have been met and they are made up as they go along. Just been told lie after lie and been fobbed off over and over, moved from pillar to post. It has been disgusting and seems to be a common practice for this site from reading other reviews. It is not done by mistake. Completely relying on your lack of persistence to forget about the issues they are purposefully not dealing with.

For this reason I would suggest this website is avoided at all costs. Its a good site until it crashes and you have to hear all the lies and nonsense that comes with it. The saddest part is it seems a common theme.

PS After my persistence which is strong i have been promised that someone would get back to me within the hour. PROMISED!! this deadline has also been missed which can be added to the list of lies.

At all cost do not join these cowboys.

Omg please avoid this online casino like the corona plague. Bonus are crap when you finally get them, just dead spins and poor pay out. I've played quite a few different online casinos and this is up there with the worse. Just take your business elsewhere and let these jokers fade into the ether where they belong. You have been warned folks

I have had my account suspended after an receiving an email giving me 45 minutes before they suspended my account with significant funds in account and with bets on a market running. They say they called me but no missed call. Their advertised phone number doesn't work and the number that they gave me on chat hasn't picked up after 50 minutes. They are unable to resolve by chat. Basically didn't communicate that they were going to suspend account due to levels of deposits and then impossible to contact to unsuspend!! Incredibly poor customer service.

Following numerous requests via live chat for the safer gambling team to contact me (at their initial request) I eventually contacted Tom Hudson who resolved the issue for me very quickly!

So very happy with Tom's service, not so happy with Customer support and the safer gambling team!!

Disgraceful. Took a bonus spins and made a great profit and just before I had completed the x wager requirements my account was suspended for no reason. If you lose they will keep you but don’t expect to win.

They told me on their chat room (I have a photo of) that my account was closed for ‘business decisions’. Basically I was going to win and they didn’t feel I was a profitable account for them. So they closed my account. I threatened Legal action and surprise surprise my account is reopened. Their response to this review is they needed to speak to me, they didn’t do anything of the like. Terrible. There are soooo many other options, try a more friendly provider

Reply

I've asked this company to delete my account and not to make further contact with me through email, there are robbing b######s. I get emails several times a day even tho I've asked them not to and to delete my account it continues. Stay away from them, I can't get them to sod off.

So I decided to visit the Grosvenor Casino in Northampton tonight (for the first time) as Aspers is still closed.
Didn’t enjoy myself at all:
I must have been asked for a membership card 6 times (I didn’t have one as I wasn’t given one on joining in reception) during my visit and on top of that I was asked for my DOB from across the roulette table; personal information and very unprofessional.
I was instructed to follow the arrows on the floor however senior staff walked around in whatever direction they felt like.
Not a great atmosphere and no friendly staff. I’ve no intention of going back again… Aspers please open soon!

Despite rating this review with 4 stars, I must say that the service handling of this sudden verification process, requiring submission of documents, is gradually proving to be unsatisfactory.

Having proved my personal and sensitive information and access to my bank account via Experian, I am incredibly shocked at the delay of even reviewing my documentation, let alone receiving any indication on progress.

Although this statement doesn't seem to matter much to the Casino, like many here I've been a loyal customer to Grosvenor and in the last several months deposited 1000s. I had NO issues with regards to gameplay, depositing or even withdrawing small/large sums – a maximum of 2 works days until funds reached my bank account.

I have now been deposit restricted for much too long, and it's unfair that despite providing the necessary documents that clearly verify the funds deposited were all mine – earned in employment and that a soft check + documentation would confirm my identification, I am still left in the dark.

As a lover of your blackjack games, I am eager to return to the site. I kindly request that my verification process is reviewed and some clarification is provided. I've spoken to your teams in Live Chat and through emails, however no clear indication as of yet.

I look forward to your response and support on this.

Thanks
Zamin

I agree with the last review. Was playing earlier this evening. Had a break and now the software will not allow me to log back in. For such a big player in the casino field, the software is crap. Also when you see the online information put out there from the Hippodrome and the Empire and then compare with the latest information from The Poker Room……zero !

This site is becoming almost comical not one of the live chat sorts anything out in under an hour I had a winning bet marked as a loser and they blamed a third party error??? I’ve been on the site all afternoon and 2 hours ago it wouldn’t let me log in now the site says it’s fine tuning tf????

Used this casino online deposited nearly 1000 pounds had a big win, after a day communicating with there team and being advised I would get my money they used there terms and condition not to pay out.

I used a card in a family members name with permission however my account was suspended and winnings were retained with my steak returned to the original card holders account.

Get ready to submit bank statements, passport or driving licence and the card statement you made all the transactions from if you want to TRY to get a payout.

Good range of games but I have to say the payouts have become a joke over the last few months. Once I put a deposit limit on my account I noticed less wins. Ive put take a break on again for 6 wks as it's not fun playing anymore. Net deposits are + so it's not a review because I've lost money.
This year all online casinos have become boring, not fun and are just trying to take as much money as possible without paying out much winnings. I will be taking a break from all of them until things pick back up with the economy👍

This company are an absolute joke. I made a withdrawl of 200 3weeks ago with no issues whats so ever.
Then made 2 more within 3days of each other one for 150 and 220. They processed the first one supposedly on the 3rd Aug (only just hit my bank account today 8days later) there withdrawl time is 1-3 days. the other withdrawal has been rejected and account suspended. I have given them what they've asked for and still I can't log on to withdraw my funds. Spoken to 5 diffrent people on online chat as there phone lines are currently switched off. You are the only company refusing to answer calls with COVID going on. Every other company is biting peoples hands off for business. You are losing buisness. Skybet, paddy Power. So much better. Once my account becomes active again I will be withdrawling all funds and closing account. Joke

I thought stars was bad. This place has absolutely no shame when it comes to big stack favouritsm. Every single all-in, and I really mean every single one, over two tournaments, where a shortstack was up against a big stack, the big stack came out on top.

I've never seen anything like it and I've been playing online for 15 years now, tried every site going and while they are all clearly not legit this place takes the biscuit for bigstack favouritsm. It is unreal, they don't even bother trying to hide it or make it look subtle. Really does put riverstars to shame on this front. Absolute joke and if you want proof that online poker is defintely rigged then go play a few tournaments on this s**thole. I really am taken aback at how bad it is, I've already quit online poker, I was only playing here because I had tournament tickets from ages ago to use up, but I if I hadn't quit this place would definutely tip me over the edge.

Absolute joke that this is still allowed to happen and even more of a joke that it will carry on without even the slightest hint of any sort of inquiry or investigation. These places are scum! They are literally robbing people of their money. Why do people let them get away with it!?!

I recently opened an account with grosvenor after finding them through a google search. On account opening I was not asked for verification docs so I visited their live chat to check if I should upload them and was informed that I was electronically verified.

I deposited for a number of days without issue and yesterday I went to withdraw and realised my account was suspended and verification docs requested. I have provided the docs and have now been told this will take 3 to 5 working days to review.

The casino is absolutely dragging their feet.

They happily accept your deposits without question over a number of days and then shut you out entirely when it comes to payout. They will sweet talk you and explain that these docs can be requested at anytime.

I get that……

So why not request them at account opening so the punter is not shut out for a week while you fix your out of date verification system. They are scam artists. Avoid at all costs

………….

UPDATE

so I've spoken to their live chat agents andrew and stacey and there is nothing they can do about the verification process. They are happy for new customer accounts to be suspended until the documentation is verified (which can take 5 working days). Course they are happy, they got my money, why would they care. They should be verifying documentation at account opening. If this happens at least customers would not be depositing for days thinking all is ok then get a shock when they go to withdraw. Account suspension and 5 days to review paperwork and possible 5 further days to process withdrawals. Shambles

DO NOT OPEN AN ACCOUNT

Look at the countless Negative reviews people are getting suspended and they are not getting back to them just keep fobbing them off!

Suspended my account whilst playing , have spoken to live chat on numerous occasions each time telling me lies and different information. Apparently they have tried calling me on two occasions which is a lie as I checked the time they called me and was no missed calls. They have my money as well.

I just want my Money back full of lies extremley poor service!

One of the worse sites I've played, I've named the site the credit vacuum. 400/500 spins before you drop a bonus and when you finally do the bonus win is so poor its laughable. I was lucky to see at any point a win 3/4 times my bet. The so called random number generator is obviously still on furlow. There are much better sites which you can actually enjoy losing on and maybe land a win. When the fun stops, stop? What fun? So in this case don't even start. The customer services are just rude and try to belittle you and told me if I can't afford to lose don't play.

Not very good site .customer service fine however site gos down when placing bets ie accepts the bet then rejects it. can be costly .site needs to be looked at.I will not be useing it again .again no problem with customer service but I just can't trust the site at the end of the day it is real money we play with .

Had an account with them for about 2 months. I bet primarily on sports markets, mainly horse racing. They removed their BOG without any communication and shortly after started restricting my bets to the extent where I could not get bets on even though they were often only a couple of pounds. They were being sent for approval and then rejected, I’ve closed my account, waste of time. Would say they only want casino/mug punters.

Unlike some alternatives, such as PokerStars / 888 they don't freeze your account after you make a deposit or withdrawal request and then take days / weeks to process scans of your identity and banking documents.

Grosvenor use Open Banking via Experian to automatically and electronic process affordability checks and advise you of this prior to making a significant deposit, not after the fact.

Poker Games are primarily UK / European players, not the widest variety of active poker variants, but the ones they do have, have plenty of fish.

Encountered some occasional issues with the site login & iPlayer poker network software, but they have live support via telephone and online chat, to assist and advise. Million times better than Stars who don't respond to or acknowledge emails, (their only support channel).

Pot rake quite high, but rewards program compensates for this.

Highly recommended for UK players, familiar with their bricks and mortar Casinos.

i like this site been playing with them for years i just find it hard to get a decent win.i no you can win a couple of grand on slots when they pay but it just doesn't seem to pay well for me. also they gave me 50 pound the other day so it just proves how much i spent on this site and not won because in 11 years ive never been given 50 pound free but for the last 8 months ive been on a bad run hopefully sooner rather than later i will catch a big win

Don't waste your time
Another company that are far too busy to take care of their customers and deal with issues that can be resolved in minutes. It's all great when contacting support but promises are made and not kept. 5 days ago I asked for their assistance with something. I have spoken with their support team at least 4 times where I was promised a matter would be dealt with and sent them 3 emails as well which I have received no response to, nada, zero. They're obviously far too busy to look after their loyal customers. Do yourself a favour and do not use this company. Any issues you'll most probably be chasing around in circles until you go crazy. Judging by their recent reviews I am not the only one that is fed up with them. They behave like a rubbish service is acceptable and forget that there are hundreds of other companies out there that actually appreciate their customers . Clearly making too much money to give a damn. Please Grosvenor if you do actually bother reading these reviews rather than copying and pasting standard replies to make it seem you care, please do not insult my intelligence by replying to this with one of those. You had plenty of time to show me you cared and ignored my requests for assistance, now it is too late. This is the review you deserve and this review will now stay here where it belong. We are all accountable, even The Rank Group. I hope it will prevent someone else who reaches out to you for help going through the same mind numbing experience. Why not spend a few pounds and bring in a few support staff to offer your clients a proper service instead of treating us like garbage? Despite what you may believe, I don't need to play with you. Complete waste of time and space
