Sent me a W9 instead of my money. Need more documents suddenly.
Sent me a W9 instead of my money, I've redeemed many, many, many times. Beware, they're likely going out of business and trying to stall til there's no tomorrow. Crooks. Wipe your rear with that W9. How about YOU verify for once. Send me MY money. 1000$. Nearly a MONTH.
Review procedure = audit for any possible excuse to not pay you your own money.
They will reel you in with top tier deals on SC, and then snag you at a high redemption. It is criminal. They are lying about all the reasons it's taking so long. Most sweepstakes casinos have a 1-3 day processing time. They lie (to the level of fraud) about your VIP benefits. Expedited redeem? Nope, takes longer now. Daily bonus boost? Nope. It takes a LOT to make it to VIP, thousands of dollars. They do not provide what thousands of dollars is supposed to provide. THEFT, THEFT, THEFT.
Most sweepstakes casinos have basic respect for their customers. Lonestar does not.
-edit- I HAVE ALREADY TALKED TO YOUR PEOPLE, THEY TELL ME THE SAME GARBAGE. "Oh, we're working on processing that payment." WHAT PROCESSING?!? YOU JUST NEED TO SEND THE MONEY.
I literally bought a 900$ bundle, redeemed 1000 after I was done playing through it. I only won 100$. This is what you're putting me through? Kidnapping my money over 100$?
-edit 08/17/26- I still have not received my money. A different casino literally just paid me within the hour of redeeming. I am so, so, sick of these people.
Also, Realprize has also been holding my money. Same period of time. They have the same owner, so clearly I'm being targeted for some reason.
-08/23/26- I still have not received my money, most of which was MY OWN, FROM MY BANK ACCOUNT.
This is, let's just say, of dubious legality.
With each passing day, I shall consider this theft. You are not verifying anything, you are liars. You are kidnapping peoples money maliciously. Your excuses make no sense on their face. GIVE ME MY MONEY!!!!!!
8-29-26 - I am STILL WAITING. I'm gonna contact my state's attorney general.
I have filed a review & complaint on BBB, I have filed a complaint with the texas attorney general, and i'm going to make it my mission to have lonestar/realprize removed from lists of "legitimate" sweepstakes casinos. You are holding my money to discourage any further play from me. You requested my SSN, which you don't need. Now i'm worried about my money, and my identity.
-August 30th update: Still Nothing. 24 days since last attempt at a still pending redemption. Over 40 days total this embarrassment of a "casino" has had my money.
