Hello,

Thank you for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve experienced. May I ask a few questions to better understand the situation?

  • Could you please tell me which games you were focused on — slots, live casino, sports betting, etc.?
  • Had you completed verification before you lost access to the account?
  • When did you create your casino account, and when was it closed?

I hope we can help resolve this issue promptly. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Kristina

Thank you for your response. I confirm that my case has already been reviewed by your Customer Service Team, and I have received a final decision without being provided with any clear evidence to support the claim of "low-risk betting." For clarity, I would like to emphasize the key concern: My withdrawal request was submitted after completing all wagering requirements, and only after approximately 8 hours, my account was closed and the balance confiscated. I kindly ask that this complaint is reviewed thoroughly, and that I am provided with: Specific evidence of the alleged "low-risk betting" Exact bets, including dates and times The precise clause in your Terms & Conditions that was violated I look forward to a detailed and fair review of my case. Thank you for your attention.

I strongly deny your allegations of multiple accounts or any violation of your terms and conditions.

Your decision to close my account and confiscate my balance is completely unjustified, especially since no clear or verifiable evidence has been provided to support these claims.

I request that you provide detailed proof of the alleged violation. Otherwise, I expect my account to be reinstated and my full balance to be returned immediately.

If this issue is not resolved promptly, I will escalate the matter further through official channels and relevant authorities.

I look forward to your urgent response.

Hello Kristina,


Thank you for your response and for following up on my complaint.


I was mainly playing slots and live casino games.

Yes, I had fully completed the account verification process before it was closed.

Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact account creation date because I no longer have access to my account, but it was closed on April 2, 2026.

I would also like to point out that my account was closed approximately 8 hours after I submitted a withdrawal request of $1,000, which is very concerning and raises serious questions.



I would like to emphasize that I played in good faith and followed the terms and conditions to the best of my knowledge, without any intentional violations.


Based on this, I kindly request a clear and detailed explanation for the account closure and the confiscation of my balance, along with any evidence supporting this decision—especially given the timing of the closure immediately after my withdrawal request.


I also request a fair and thorough review of my case.


I appreciate your cooperation and look forward to your prompt response.

Hello Kristina,

Thank you for your response.

Yes, I have received a reply from the casino, and I am attaching all relevant correspondence.

As you can see, the casino only claims "bonus abuse" without providing any specific explanation or evidence. They also refused to continue any further discussion.

I would like to highlight that:


I believe this action is unfair and lacks transparency, as no clear justification or proof has been provided.

I kindly ask for your assistance in reviewing this case and requesting proper evidence from the casino.

Thank you for your support.

Hello Kristina,

Thank you for your continued assistance.

I have now provided all the communication between myself and the casino. As clearly shown, the operator repeatedly claims "bonus abuse" but has failed to provide any specific details, evidence, or gameplay records to support this accusation.

Despite my full cooperation, including completing all KYC verification requests multiple times, no issue was ever raised during my gameplay. The only action taken was the closure of my account immediately after I submitted a withdrawal request.

This sequence of events is deeply concerning, as it suggests that the decision was not based on any verified violation, but rather triggered by my withdrawal attempt.

Furthermore, my gameplay was strictly limited to slot games, which are purely random and do not allow for any strategic manipulation that could reasonably be classified as bonus abuse.

The casino’s refusal to provide evidence or engage in further discussion only reinforces the lack of transparency in this case.

Given these facts, I respectfully request your assistance in requiring the casino to:


I firmly believe that without evidence, such actions are unjustified and inconsistent with fair gaming principles.

Thank you for your time and support. I trust in your fairness and professionalism in reviewing this matter.

Kind regards,

Hello Martin,

Thank you for taking over my case, I appreciate your assistance.

I would like to confirm that I have provided all relevant communication with the casino, and as shown, the operator has only made a general claim of "bonus abuse" without providing any specific explanation or evidence.

To clarify once again:

My gameplay was normal and limited to slot games.

I fully complied with all KYC verification requests.

No issue was raised during my gameplay.

My account was only closed after I submitted a withdrawal request.

I am fully willing to cooperate and provide any additional information if needed.

I kindly request that the casino be asked to provide clear and verifiable evidence to support their claim, as I believe the confiscation of my funds is unjustified without proof.

Thank you for your support.

Kind regards,

Hello Martin,

Thank you for the update.

I would like to point out that the casino’s response does not address the issue at all. Instead of providing any explanation or evidence regarding the alleged "bonus abuse," they are asking me to contact them خارج this complaint platform via Live Chat or Reddit.

I believe this is an attempt to move the discussion away from this official complaint process, where there is no transparency or record of communication.

For clarity:

I have already contacted the casino multiple times.

They have repeatedly claimed "bonus abuse" without providing any evidence.

My account was closed only after I requested a withdrawal.

I kindly request that the casino provide their explanation and any supporting evidence directly here, within this complaint, so that the process remains transparent and properly documented.

Thank you for your support.

Kind regards,

This is the casino website and email address.

Hello Martin,


Thank you for your clear request to the casino.


I would like to confirm that I fully support your request for detailed clarification and evidence regarding the alleged "bonus abuse."


As previously stated, my gameplay was normal and limited to slot games, and I did not engage in any behavior that could reasonably be considered abusive or against the terms.


I also fully cooperated with all KYC verification requests, and no concerns were raised until after I submitted a withdrawal request.


I appreciate your assistance in requesting concrete and specific evidence from the casino, as I believe this is essential for a fair resolution of the case.


Thank you for your support.

Dear A7tmail1,


thank you for your continued patience.


I would like to provide you with a brief update on the situation. We have managed to establish contact with representatives connected to the 888 brand and have been attempting to locate your account based on the information you provided. Unfortunately, they have so far been unable to find any record of your account within their systems.


At the same time, there are now some concerns that the website you played at may not be directly connected to the original 888 operation, despite using the 888 branding. We are still trying to verify the relationship between the website and the official brand and to identify the correct party responsible for handling your case.


As we have not yet received the information necessary to properly assess the complaint, I am extending the timer one final time while we continue our efforts to establish communication with the relevant representatives. If we are unable to obtain the required cooperation or clarification within this period, we may have no option but to close the complaint as unresolved, which would also result in a penalty being applied to the casino's rating.


Thank you for your understanding. We will keep you informed of any developments.
