REJECTED

Case summary

8 months ago

The player's account got closed due account multiplicity. We temporarily closed the complaint, because the player wishes to contact the casino's gambling authority. After reopening the complaint and reaching to the player, we unfortunately didn't receive any reply and therefore decided to reject the complaint.

The Casino in question has unfairly deactivated my account.


I won R$1,000.00 and then another R$1,000.00 in a roulette wheel through this casino, however, I lowered that balance until I had a little more than R$400.00 left.


The Casino claimed that I have duplicate accounts, however, I verified this account with my documents, phone number and address.


There really was another account registered through the same computer, however, it was my brother's and it was not verified.


They could have deactivated my brother's account, it was not verified and had no balance. But what did they do? They deactivated mine, which was verified with the documents and mainly because there was a large cash balance.

Hello gracioli95,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Artcasino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

Could you please advise which account was created as first? Did both account claim any bonuses in the casino? Did the casino give you the opportunity to verify the other account as well?

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

Nick, good night!


First thanks for getting in touch!


Answering your questions:


The first account created was "gracioli95", which was verified with my documents.


Both accounts claimed a bonus that awarded 20 free spins on a given game. After my free spins, I used the balance to continue in the same slot, in which I won approximately R$37.00.


The opportunity to verify the other account, with my brother's data and documents, was not granted.

Hello gracioli95,

As long as your account was created first and verified, the casino should have close the second account as it was the duplicate one. I will now forward your complaint to my colleague Tomas who will be assisting you from now on.

Wish you best luck resolving it.

Regards,

Nick

Hello gracioli95,


I will assist you with the complaint from now on. I familiarized myself with the situation and I will do my best to help.


As Nick explained earlier, if your account was created first, we believe your winnings should NOT be confiscated. I'll try to contact the casino and learn more about the issue.


Artcasino,


could you explain your position on the situation?

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.

Hi there,


Please note we have deactivated both accounts according to General T&C and also Bonus T&C. We as a casino have really no clue why such complaint is opened as "legitimate case"


Player confirmed by itself: There really was another account registered through the same computer, however, it was my brother's and it was not verified.


We did security check at the time of withdrawal and noticed multi ip account, immediately two accounts were blocked.

Hello all,


Thanks to Art Casino for their reply.


While it is normal for a casino to have a rule stating one account per household/IP address/player, we feel each case should be considered separately. If the player has multiple accounts and has used them to repeatedly gain bonuses they should only receive once, this is obviously a clear breach of the terms and an unfair advantage.


However, if there is no clear advantage gained by the player and it is conceivable that an honest mistake has been made (for example, the player forgot they registered a long time ago and registered again), we do not think a player should have their winnings confiscated.


gracioli95,


Could you please explain if your brother opened his account after you achieved your win, or before? Did you clear your wagering on slots, and after that, you played roulette, or did you complete your wagering on roulette?

Hello Casino.guru

We reserve the right to close any accounts that are traced to the same address, IP address or computer or are suspected of having been transferred between users and freeze any winnings on those accounts.

Hi casino.guru,


It will change absolutely nothing whether player answer or not. It is not about wagering, disabled games or any other reason you might have.


Our decision here is final and if there is any concern or question please turn to curacao gambling regulator for detailed answer.


We wil take this as unlawfull act from casino.guru to not to close the case immiedetely after relevant proofs have been provided together with relevant general T&C.

Hello gracioli95,


I understand your decision, the casino is licensed under Curacao Antillephone. If you wish to contact the licensing authority you can do so via email (certria@gaminglicences.com). Please let me know when you contact them and how they responded(tomas@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.


I will now close the complaint as 'waiting for regulator decision'. Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,

Tomas

Dear gracioli95,

We hope this message finds you well. We wanted to follow up on your case, which was marked as "Waiting for Regulator" on our website some time ago. We were wondering if there have been any updates or resolutions since our last conversation.

If your case has been resolved by the Licensing Authority, we kindly request you to forward us their official statement at tomas@casino.guru 

On the other hand, if the ruling was in favor of the casino, it would still be incredibly helpful for us to know. We understand that it has been a while, but updating your complaint will allow us to either issue black points to the casino (if the ruling was in your favor) or warn other players and users about cases where the Authority supports the operator.

We truly appreciate your cooperation, and your response would be of great assistance to us. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Regrettably, we have not received any communication from the player. Despite acknowledging that our last interaction occurred some time ago, we aimed to appropriately revise the complaint's status and classification based on the elapsed time. Regrettably, without the player's input, this becomes impossible, leading us to close the case as "rejected." 

The player is welcome to reach out in the future, should they wish to reopen this complaint. We can appropriately reclassify it upon submission of substantiating evidence of the Licensing Authority's verdict. Until then, we appreciate your understanding.
