Case summary

1 week ago

The player from Finland, who was asked to verify his ID again even though his account was already verified, had his account permanently closed following the ID submission process. The casino's operations team gave no reason for the account closure and he is not able to place any sports bets or participate in any promotions.

So i tried to withdraw my money 20.5 but the cashier said that i need to verify my id first(my account was thou already verified) so i went to live support and asked them the situtation. They said that i need to send again my id to the operation team. So i sent my id again and 2 days later they answered:


After a full review of your 888sport account, we have decided to permanently close your account wxwIllow.


After that i went to live support and ask the reason but they didnt give me any. Just that they will forward my issue to the operation team. The next day i get two emails from them.


First was: Please be advised due to betting restrictions placed on your account, you are no longer eligible to participate in any 888sport promotions.


Second was: Please be advised due to betting restrictions placed on your account, you will not be able to place any further sport bets with us.


Any pending bets that have already been placed will be settled as normal and you can continue to use any other products on our site.


Still i can't login to my account(only mobile cashier) where i can't do much.


So i went to live support again and they told me the same thing again that they have forwared my issue to the operation team.


I deposit 3.5 and have only played casino and sport betting. Didn't use any bonus or promotions. Lost to casino about 1,2ke and won sport betting maybe 50-100e. So i think im down like more than 1000e.


Can you please help me to get my remaining money back, thank you!

Dear wxwI,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely. 

  • Could you please advise when your account was created?
  • Do I understand correctly that the funds you tried to withdraw are still in your casino account?

Additionally, if there is any other relevant communication between you and the casino, please forward it to kristina.s@casino.guru. Alternatively, you can post it here. 

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Kristina

My 888poker account was opened 2011. I can see that first message from 888sport is from 2019.


My first deposit after 2019 was this month to 888sport. I played there some bets and then played also some casino and deposit more when I lost. So I switched between 888sport and 888casino when I played. Not sure are the remaining balance sport account or casino. I thought that they are kinda same, coz my balance always switched to casino to sport and vice versa when I played.


EDIT: Can't login to 888sport or 888casino.

Hello, wxwI,

I am sorry to hear about your trouble. I will contact the casino and try my best to resolve the issue as soon as possible. However, I can see several discrepancies between the information you posted in your first post, the attached screenshots, and the information in them. So, please note if the casino confirms how it seems to be from my point of view, I will strongly think about complaint closure without asking for further details or evidence.

Now I would like to invite the casino representative to join this conversation and participate in resolving this complaint.


Dear 888 Casino team,

Could you please provide us with a detailed explanation of the player's situation? What happened with the disputed account? What other accounts did the complainant register at the casino, and what happened with them?

Do I understand correctly that the casino limited one of his accounts by restrictions, and he bypassed the imposed restrictions by creating another account (the disputed one), so the casino closed it? Can you please be more specific regarding the breach and possibly substantiate it with relevant evidence?

If it suits you better, feel free to send the necessary details/evidence to my email address (branislav.b@casino.guru).

Hello Branislav and thank you for your reply!


Can you please specify the several discrepancies about my informations? There is absolutely zero chance that i have made multiply accounts or have any restrictions before this accident.


Like i said earlier. I didn't even use any bonuses or promotions when i started to play 888sport again on 2.5.2024. I even did request to reset my password coz i didnt remember it anymore from 2019 when i played last time 888sport.


So how can its even possible to do more than one account with same informations? Also i did get verified my account on 888sport and kept playing without any problems. The problem started when i was not allowed to withdraw my money and asked my id again. And all that, i lost to 888sport/888 casino something like 1000-1200€ after my deposits last month. So i didnt even benefit anything from 888.


The whole situations seems absurd for my point of view.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

What would be the next step to take? Complain to MGA or something else? I know I haven't done anything wrong. Been playing +50 casinos for 16 years and this is the first time casino if I may say is trying to steal my money.


Thank you for in advance!

Yes, probably, ADR and/or MGA. Maybe it is a misunderstanding. Let's see what the casino will reply.

I tried to contact them also in other ways recently, so I extended the current timer until the end of the week.

Thank you for your patience.

I am extending the timer by another 7 days and waiting for a response from the casino.

I was in contact with the casino representative, and the complaint should have been forwarded to their Customer Support. I am not sure whether they will also contact me regarding the matter, wxwI, but someone from the casino should contact you, likely via email, if they have not yet.

If you have any news or updates in the meantime, or if there is any progress, please let me know.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Hello, wxwI,

Since the casino does not have any unresolved cases with us yet, the casino representative replied to me regularly trying to help us but only has not contacted me back with updates after my last messages (I was told that they currently also are putting up a new complaint resolution process together), I will write to them again and extend the timer from the casino once again. However, if no one from the casino contacts me/you or we are not provided with relevant information until the current timer expires, the complaint will be closed. I will inform the casino representative about the same. I am aware of the time it has already been taking.

So, let's give the casino one more chance and the last 7 days to help us solve the matter.

If I have any news or updates, I will inform you.

Thank you for your infinite patience and understanding.
