Case summary

The player from New Jersey filed a formal complaint against CrazyBet casino for unjustifiably blocking his account and retaining his funds of €1,086 without explanation. He detailed the chronology of events, including the use of an official tipping feature, his attempts to provide documentation, and the casino's total lack of communication, which culminated in a permanent ban of his account. The complaint was reviewed, but due to insufficient expertise and lack of insight into sports betting, the issue was deemed unresolvable by the Complaints Team. Consequently, the complaint was closed without a resolution on the player's behalf.

Good morning,


I wish to file a formal complaint against CrazyBet casino (crazybet.com) for unjustified blocking of my account, retention of my funds (€1,086), total lack of communication and permanent banning of my account without any justification.



--- CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS ---


STEP 1 — The tip

My friend, who has his own CrazyBet account in his name and at his home address (different from mine), sent me €944 via the officially integrated TIP feature in the CrazyBet app. This feature is offered directly by CrazyBet to its players. We didn't circumvent any rules; we simply used a tool provided by the casino itself.


STEP 2 — Blocking the account

Following this tip, CrazyBet blocked my account without prior warning, leaving €1,086 in it. Since this block, which has lasted for over a month, I can neither withdraw my funds nor play. I am trapped with my own money without any explanation.


STEP 3 — My attempt at cooperation (over a week ago)

As soon as I understood the situation, I immediately contacted CrazyBet by email. In that email, I:

- I sent my ID card of my own volition to prove that the account belongs to me

- Offered to provide any additional documents they requested: proof of address, rent receipt, bank statement, or any other document proving my identity and address

- Clearly explained the situation regarding the tip I received from my friend

- It should be noted that my friend and I live at completely different addresses and each have our own CrazyBet account


STEP 4 — CrazyBet's complete silence

CrazyBet never replied to my email. No acknowledgement of receipt, no request for additional documents, no explanation, nothing. Total silence for over a week, even though I offered them full cooperation.


STEP 5 — The brutal banishment today

Today, tired of waiting, I contacted CrazyBet again to ask for an update on my case. In response, they permanently banned my account, without explanation, without replying to my emails, without examining the evidence I offered to provide, and with €1,086 still withheld.



--- THE MAIN LEGAL ARGUMENT ---


The "tipping between players" feature is an OFFICIAL feature offered by CrazyBet in its own application. CrazyBet cannot legally:

- Officially offer a tipping feature between players in its application

- AND sanction, block and ban its players for using this same function


This constitutes a blatant contradiction and an unfair practice towards players. If CrazyBet considers player transfers prohibited, why does this feature exist in their app? The responsibility for this ambiguity lies entirely with CrazyBet, not the player.



--- AVAILABLE EVIDENCE ---


1. All emails sent to CrazyBet with the dates (proving my initiative to cooperate and their complete lack of response)

2. Screenshot showing the €944 credited to my balance via the tipping feature

3. My identity card (already sent to CrazyBet, available for Casino Guru)

4. Written statement from my friend confirming that he did indeed send me this tip from his own account, that our accounts are separate, and that we live at different addresses.

5. Proof of address and any other document proving my identity — I am ready to provide immediately anything requested



--- WHAT I AM ASKING FOR ---


I ask:

1. Unlocking my CrazyBet account

2. Full reimbursement of my funds (€1,086)

3. A formal explanation from CrazyBet justifying their decision


CrazyBet's behavior is particularly serious: they ignored my attempts to cooperate, refused to examine the evidence I voluntarily provided, kept my funds frozen for over a month, and permanently banned my account the very day I inquired about it. This type of behavior cannot go unanswered.


I am fully available and cooperative to provide all documents necessary for the resolution of this dispute.


Thank you for your help and intervention.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with Crazybet Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

  • Has the amount been returned to your friend to your knowledge?
  • Has your friend's account been blocked to your knowledge?
  • How long have you been a player in the casino? How much have you deposited in the casino overall?
  • What games did you play to accumulate the balance in the casino that wasn't your friend's?
  • Did you achieve your balance with the help of a bonus?
  • Could you please share with me the justification for account closure you received from the casino? Send emails or chat transcripts to my email at tomas@casino.guru, or post screenshots here

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

Best regards,

Tomas

Hello Tomas,


Thank you for your prompt reply. I will answer each of your questions as precisely as possible, giving you the exact chronology of events.



1. WAS THE AMOUNT OF €944 RETURNED TO MY FRIEND?


No. My friend sent me €944 through the official tipping feature of the CrazyBet app. I received this money in my CrazyBet account and immediately withdrew it to my personal bank account. Therefore, this money has not been in my CrazyBet account since the beginning. It was a voluntary tip from my friend, not a loan or a fraudulent transfer.



2. HAS MY FRIEND'S ACCOUNT BEEN BLOCKED?


Yes, my friend's account was blocked first, also for "multiple accounts." That's when I realized CrazyBet was wrongly suspecting us of being the same person. We are, in fact, two completely separate individuals, with two different identities, two different addresses, and two separate CrazyBet accounts.



3. EXACT AND PRECISE CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS


Here is what actually happened, in order:


STEP 1: My friend sends me €944 via the official tip function of the CrazyBet app.


STEP 2: I receive the €944 in my CrazyBet account and I immediately withdraw it to my personal bank account. My CrazyBet balance therefore returns to zero.


STEP 3: My friend's account is blocked by CrazyBet for "multiple accounts".


STEP 4: I continue to play normally on my account with my own money for another 2 weeks. By betting on sports and buying a bonus myself on the platform (not a bonus offered by the casino), I manage to increase my balance from zero to €1,086 in about a month.


STEP 5: When my balance reached €1,086, CrazyBet blocked my account without warning. I could no longer play or withdraw my funds.


STEP 6: I immediately send an email to CrazyBet. On my own initiative, I attach a copy of my ID and offer to provide any documents they request: proof of address, rent receipt, bank statement—anything that could prove my identity. CrazyBet never replies to this email.


STEP 7: More than a week later, still having received no response, I contacted CrazyBet again via chat to ask for an update. Their response was to permanently ban my account that same day, with €1,086 still frozen. The only reason given via chat was "multiple accounts".



4. KEY POINT ON BLOCKED MONEY


The money blocked in my account (€1,086) did not come from my friend at all. The €944 tip I received had already been withdrawn from my bank account well before the block. The blocked balance comes entirely from my own sports bets and a bonus I purchased myself with my own money. CrazyBet allowed me to play for two more weeks after my friend's account was blocked and only blocked my account once my balance had reached a significant amount.



5. ON THE ACCUSATION OF "MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS"


This accusation is completely false and unfair. I only have one CrazyBet account, opened in my name, using my own identification documents. My friend has his own account in his name, at a different home address than mine. We are two completely separate individuals.


Furthermore, I want to emphasize a crucial point: the "tipping between players" feature is an OFFICIAL feature offered by CrazyBet in its own application. We haven't circumvented any rules. We simply used a tool implemented by CrazyBet itself. It is deeply unfair and contradictory to ban a player for using an official platform feature.



6. DID I RECEIVE A BONUS OFFERED BY THE CASINO?


No. I did not receive any free bonuses from CrazyBet. The bonus mentioned is one that I purchased myself using my own funds on the platform.



7. WHAT I AM ASKING


I ask:

1. The full return of my funds (€1,086) which come exclusively from my own bets

2. A formal and detailed explanation from CrazyBet justifying their decision



8. AVAILABLE EVIDENCE


I am ready to send you immediately to tomas@casino.guru :

- All my emails sent to CrazyBet with the dates, and proof of their complete lack of response

- The screenshot showing the €944 credited to my account via the tipping feature

- The screenshot from the support chat where CrazyBet mentions "multiple accounts" as the reason for closure

- My identity card

- My friend's written statement confirming that he sent me this tip voluntarily, that our accounts are separate, and that we live at different addresses

- Any other document you deem necessary


Thank you so much for your help and intervention in this matter.

Sincerely

Thank you for your reply, Neroz123.

I’m sorry to say I don’t have good news. If your account was blocked after placing only sports bets, it’s likely the casino detected activity that prompted that decision. Because we don’t have sufficient expertise or insight into this area of online gambling, we are unable to interpret the casino’s investigation or its explanation accurately and therefore cannot judge this case fairly. This does not mean we consider your complaint unjustified; we are simply unable to evaluate it properly. I understand how frustrating this must be for you, and I apologize that we cannot be of more help.

After reviewing the available information, we must close this complaint. I’m sorry we could not resolve this for you. Please don’t hesitate to contact us in the future if you encounter issues with any online casino, and we will do our best to assist.
