I would like to request mediation of this case against Kaleo Casino. On 07/04/2026, I requested a withdrawal of €1,000 after legitimate winnings obtained through real money deposits (no bonus).After waiting 7 days, I received an email informing me that my withdrawal was canceled and the balance confiscated based on clause 12.10 (alleging VPN, fraud or false documents). I would like to clarify that:KYC: My account was fully verified (KYC in green) before the withdrawal request.VPN: I have always played on my personal computer, at my residence, without ever using VPN or any IP masking software.Bonus: I did not use bonuses for these winnings; the balance comes from direct deposits.History: I have made smaller withdrawals before with success, which proves that the account was considered legitimate until I won a larger amount.The casino has not provided any specific proof of the infringement, merely copying and pasting a generic article from the terms and conditions to avoid payment. I demand that my balance be reinstated and the payment processed."

In order to assist you better and investigate the situation thoroughly, could you please provide further details by answering the following questions:

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

The documents were approved by the website, I had already requested a withdrawal of 1000 euros and they paid it, and I only didn't withdraw everything straight away because they have a withdrawal limit of 1000 euros and they wouldn't let me withdraw again until the withdrawal had been processed, and now I found the delay strange because they never approved it again and they were always making excuses.

And now they've disappeared with my money and won't pay me. Please see if you can help me.

the game i always played was heart of rio and the documents sent were my citizen card my account details proof of address and i even took a photo of myself holding my identification document which they wanted to prove was me, then they said my account was fully activated and i could make deposits and withdrawals and then they did this to me. and i don't have vpn activated i don't know why now they have invented this and document fraud which they had already analyzed and approved.

And another important point is that if you look at the screenshots I sent, it says that the account has been validated. And another thing is that they accused me but they didn't block my account because today I logged in and tried to make deposits on the platform and it says that I canceled the operation. They accept deposits but don't pay out the winnings. Today I spoke to them in chat and they gave me vague answers and even closed the chat in my face.

Dear Petra,

Thank you so much for your kindness and for referring my case to Michal. I feel reassured knowing it's in good hands - I really appreciate all your support so far.

Do you think there's a good chance that the casino will pay me? Do you have any estimate of how long it might take Michal to get back to us?

Good morning, I really appreciate it because they didn't give me any concrete proof, they just accused me of various things and took my money! But they keep sending me emails with promotions for me to deposit more money and lose it.

I hope you can help me, I'm very hopeful because I haven't done anything and I've never been through this.

I'm a hard-working and honest person.

Thank you for your kindness

Because it's not an honest casino if they hadn't paid out my winnings.

Dear lili41,

I wanted to provide you with a quick update regarding your case.

I have now received a response from the casino, in which they provided certain clarifications regarding the actions taken on your account. In order to conduct an independent assessment of the matter, I have requested additional details together with supporting evidence for review.

I was also informed that you may have submitted a complaint to the Anjouan Gaming Commission and that their decision could be expected shortly.

Have you received any communication or update from the Anjouan Gaming Commission so far?
