I am submitting a formal complaint against Degencity regarding unfair account freezing, unreasonable multi-tiered Source of Funds demands, and withholding my completely unplayed deposit of $120.04 USDT.
Chronology of Events & Full Evidence Submitted to Degencity:
Unplayed Deposit & Account Lock: On September 5, 2026, I deposited $120.04 USDT from my personal Gate.io exchange account into my Degencity wallet. Before I could place a single bet, Degencity locked my account.
Compliance with Verification & Identity Demands:
I fully cooperated with all standard and advanced KYC requests:
- Provided official identity documents (ID/Passport).
- Submitted a liveness selfie holding my ID document and a handwritten note.
- Provided the direct Gate.io withdrawal receipt and exact blockchain TXID (0xf80751d5696aa9d9ca6b5aa1ba43af15407695daaf8344b6b18b199d94428240).
- Moving Goalposts & Complete Transaction Chain Provided: When Degencity requested bank statements, I clarified that no bank cards were used as these were native crypto assets on Gate.io. To satisfy their subsequent requests for earlier source history, I provided two multi-month account statements from my verified Gate.io account (UID: 49089834):
- Attachment 1 (September 2026 Statement): Shows my verified profile (UID: 49089834) and the incoming transfer of 159 USDT on 04-09-2026 (TxID: 0x2ab5b8c3713f86238c4f1910debeb029eb83454a4c16a82a79f752f029f257e2) sourced directly from Pinnacle.
- Attachment 2 (April 2026 Statement): Proves long-term account stability and historical high-volume transactions ($449, $371, $364 USDT).
- Pinnacle Proofs: Official account origin screenshots confirming the source transfer into Gate.io.
- This established an unbroken, 100% documented chain: Verified Pinnacle Origin → Verified Gate.io Personal Account (UID: 49089834) → Degencity.
Broken 24-48h Promise & Ghosting: Agent Thomas acknowledged receipt of these complete records and stated review takes 24–48 hours. Over 4 days (96+ hours) have passed since that confirmation without any updates or unblocking.
Why Degencity’s Actions Violate Fair Play:
Unplayed Deposit Seizure: Holding a fresh $120.04 deposit that was never used in any game while demanding endless third-party source history is predatory.
Failure to Process Verified Chain: After receiving 100% of identity, biometric, exchange, and third-party origin proofs, stalling and ignoring the player violates basic operational standards.
Requested Outcome:
I request CasinoGuru intervention to compel Degencity to process an immediate full refund of my original $120.04 USDT deposit back to my Gate.io funding address and close my account. Thank you
