Manekispin Casino - Player’s account is closed and winnings confiscated.

Κατέθεσα 20€ στο Manekispin, κέρδισα 290€ και μόλις ζήτησα ανάληψη, μου μπλόκαραν τον λογαριασμό με τη δικαιολογία της ταυτοποίησης. Αν και έχω στείλει έγκυρη ταυτότητα και επίσημο λογαριασμό τηλεφώνου PDF, αρνούνται να με ταυτοποιήσουν και μου προσφέρουν πίσω μόνο τα 20€ της κατάθεσης, παρακρατώντας παράνομα τα κέρδη μου. Ζητώ τη μεσολάβησή σας για να πάρω τα 290€».

Hello,

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

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

• Could you please advise how long you were a player at the casino and when exactly your account was blocked?
• How did you learn about your account being blocked?
• What games did you play to accumulate your current balance in the casino? (slots, live games, betting on sports)
• Did you achieve your current balance with the help of a bonus?
• Could you please share with me your communication with the casino regarding the issue or any other evidence to support your case? 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

1. How long I was a player and when it was blocked: I registered a few days ago, made a €20 deposit, and played. My account was disabled right after I requested a withdrawal for my €290 winnings.

2. How I learned about the block: When I tried to log back into my account, a message appeared on my screen stating that my account has been disabled.

3. What games I played: I only played slots (κουλοχέρηδες) to accumulate my winnings.

4. Did I use a bonus: No, I played with my own real money (€20 deposit), without any bonus.

5. Communication and updates: I am attaching screenshots of my communi

Right after I filed this complaint to CasinoGuru, the casino (Manekispin) contacted me via email and asked for my driver's license for additional verification. I sent them perfect, high-quality photos of my license immediately.

Instead of completing my verification and paying my legitimate winnings, they just sent me an email stating they processed a 'refund' on my original €20 deposit, and they confiscated my €290 winnings. My account is still disabled.

I absolutely do not accept this unfair resolution. I played fairly, provided all my real documents, and I am asking for your intervention to get my full €290 winnings.

I have attached all the relevant emails and the photos of my ID/driver's license below."

"Update: I just received a reply from the casino (Manekispin). They sent me a generic, automated template stating that their decision is final and 'in compliance with the terms of service', without providing absolutely any explanation or naming any specific term that I supposedly violated. It is clear they have no valid reason to confiscate my winnings. I am attaching their email below for Tomas to see."

Thanks for your patience.

• Could you please explain which documents were requested from you, other than the driver's license you provided?
• Were any of the documents accepted, to your knowledge?
• Have you made any previous successful payouts from the casino?
• Could you please specify whether you used a payment method in your name to deposit and withdraw?

Looking forward to your reply.

1. Other documents requested: Originally, they asked for an ID/Passport and a utility bill, which I sent (I provided my Cosmote phone bill). After I opened this complaint, they additionally requested my driver's license, which I also sent immediately.

2. Were any documents accepted: They never officially informed me if any documents were accepted or rejected. They just ignored the verification process, closed my account, and refunded my deposit.

3. Previous successful payments: No, this was my very first deposit and my very first withdrawal attempt at this casino.

4. Payment method in my name: Yes, absolutely. The deposit of €20 was made using a payment method strictly in my own name (Menelaos), and the withdrawal was requested to the exact same account/card under my name.

Ευχαριστώ πολύ

σας παρακαλώ κάνετε ότι καλύτερο μπορείτε γιατί ειναι παράνομοι με αυτό που έκαναν

Dear MENELAOS,

We would like to inform you that your account has been closed and your winnings confiscated due to your failure to complete the standard KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process, as required under our Terms and Conditions.

As stated in our Terms of Use, failure to comply with KYC requirements may result in account suspension or closure, as well as the confiscation of winnings:

2.5. It is the player's responsibility to ensure that all documents submitted as part of the KYC process are genuine. The provision of false or misleading documents may result in the confiscation of both deposits and any potential winnings.

In accordance with these terms, and due to the incomplete verification process, your deposited amount has been refunded.

Dear Igor,

We have sent you a separate email containing further details. Please review it at your earliest convenience.

Best regards,

Γεια σου , απορρίπτω πλήρως τους ισχυρισμούς του καζίνου. Ο ισχυρισμός ότι παρείχα ψευδή ή παραπλανητικά έγγραφα είναι απολύτως αναληθής και μια φτηνή δικαιολογία για να αποφύγουν να πληρώσουν τα νόμιμα κέρδη μου. Κάθε έγγραφο που υπέβαλα—συμπεριλαμβανομένου του επίσημου λογαριασμού τηλεφώνου Cosmote και της κρατικής άδειας οδήγησής μου—είναι 100% γνήσιο, έγκυρο και νόμιμα στο δικό μου όνομα (Μενέλαος). Εφόσον το καζίνο ισχυρίζεται βάσει του όρου 2.5 ότι τα έγγραφά μου δεν είναι γνήσια, τους προκαλώ επίσημα εδώ μπροστά σου: 1. Ποιο συγκεκριμένο έγγραφο ισχυρίζονται ότι είναι ψεύτικο ή παραπλανητικό; 2. Τι ακριβώς έχει αυτό το έγγραφο; Δεν μπορούν απλώς να αναφέρουν έναν τυχαίο όρο για να κατασχέσουν 290€ χωρίς να παρουσιάσουν καμία πραγματική απόδειξη. Έχω συνεργαστεί πλήρως από την πρώτη μέρα και ζητώ από το καζίνο να προσκομίσει σαφείς αποδείξεις σε εσένα, , σχετικά με αυτές τις ψευδείς κατηγορίες

Dear MENELAOS,

In addition to the previously mentioned driver's license and phone bill, you also provided what appears to be an ID document.

Could you please send me detailed photos of this document from both sides?
