Kolikkopelit Casino Review

Overview

A wide selection of games provided by a plethora of top-notch content producers is usually what grabs players’ attention first. If this is accompanied by a fine collection of tools for responsible gambling, and approval by one of the most respected regulators, one could easily form quite a positive opinion on such establishment.

But, does it work for Kolikkopelit casino?

After all, it has all the above-mentioned ingredients. Unfortunately, this parlor is one of those books that shouldn’t be judged by its covers, as it turns out to be another rogue one.

On the surface…

…one can see an ordinary and well-packed facility, but underneath, there is a poor business practice, numerous penalties for breaching the rules and so on. As those negative experiences outnumber the positive ones, we had no other but to put a warning sign on this one.

Integrity/Trustworthiness

When a group has been in the industry for over 20 decades, running 11 different brands across numerous markets, one could easily assume that they work hard on building a good reputation and quality services.

After all…

…isn’t that just what their main motto is:

“To transform gambling to ensure fair play, the best deal and a great experience for our players.”

It’s either a matter of the wrong perspective or whatever other reason, but judging from how they (dis) respect their business partners, one could hardly believe in this statement.

This company fails to pay marketing fees to us, which is why we have the right to alert players that they could expect the same treatment- unpaid winnings.

As for the situation in their Terms, there are some serious flaws, such as:

• Administrative fees for withdrawals
• No information about max cashout limits
• Limited working hours of customer assistance, plus phone support not listed
• An account may be closed/suspended and deposit rejected without providing any explanation

In addition to this, they say that:

“Translations into other languages are provided as a service and in good faith. In the event of any inconsistency between the English language version and the translation, the English language version shall prevail.”

Normally, this would sound quite reasonable, and indeed is one of the commonly seen sentences in TCs, except for the fact that the website is AVAILABLE IN FINNISH ONLY?!

If other things here were less problematic…

…no one would pay attention to such lapsus calami, or whatever it should be called, but accompanied by other red flags, it only serves to give a signal that things are quite rotten inside.

And all those seals of approvals and versatile certifications listed on their website’s footer seem to be there just to fill the empty space, and nothing else.

Player Complaints

Even though we haven’t got any specific complaints about Kolikkopelit casino, there are several of them regarding some other venues operating under the Kindred Group.

However…

…we’d like to draw your attention to some other important facts. You have probably noticed that this Group often enters strategic partnerships with many well-known companies. And it’s nothing surprising, as it’s the way to build a wider base of clients.

BUT:

Have you also noticed that this same Group was punished multiple times for breaching the rules?

All the penalties were imposed by respectable regulators from various international markets. And Kindred made several serious infringements.

Swedish Gambling Authority (Spelinspektionen) imposed a fine of SEK 100 million in March 2020. As explained, the reason was not complying with the local gambling act regarding bonuses and other incentive offers.

Besides this occasion…

…August 2019 was also marked with one more penalty by the Netherlands Gambling Authority. The Group was fined after one of its subordinates was found to have unlawfully accepted wagers from Dutch players.

These two examples are more than enough to illustrate that some regulators are putting plenty of effort to protect consumers and are willing to slap fines on operators who fail to respect the code of conduct.

What’s even worse is that…

…the list of the Group’s misdeeds doesn’t end here. Though Kolikkopelit specifically didn’t have such a situation, the other brand from the corporation was warned by ASA for problematic advertisement. The issue in question was a slot game that is deemed to be of content appealing to minors, as it bears the name of a popular story for children.

So, isn’t this a great irony? You have a casino equipped with multiple tools that should assist punters experiencing troubles with gambling, but the Group itself does quite the opposite of acting responsibly.

Conclusion

At the end of the day, we cannot talk anyone into visiting or not visiting any establishment. The choice is always up to players.

On the other hand, what we CAN do is…

…share our wealthy experience with punters and invite them to check out the list of ill-behaving establishment, all of which have tried to get away with some tricks- delayed payments, unresponsive customer support, predatory Terms and Conditions, and whatnot.

Moreover, we can also direct them to check out the directory with approved venues, which have built their good reputation by following all the rules and what’s even more important- respectful treatment of players and business associates.

So, what else can be done to ensure pleasurable entertainment?

Making the industry fair and safe…

…is a challenging task, as the market is enormous and crowded with competition. That’s why it’s of vital importance to share both good and bad experiences with the community so that punters would know which one deserves one’s time and money.

The voice of consumers is always highly valued and precious, at it gives first-hand insight into a facility. Feel free to share your thoughts and impressions if there are any regarding this corporation or any of the hubs under its roof.

As far as we are concerned…

…the best would be to steer clear of Kolikkopelit casino and all the others operating under the same group. Chances are one will have quite an unpleasant experience, so why taking a risk, when there are so many other TRUSTWORTHY entertainment establishments.
