Insufficient evidence from casino

Safety Index 8.3 High

Case summary

The player from Ontario had had a successful blackjack session, turning a $3000 deposit into $12000, but after withdrawing $5000, his account had been locked without a clear reason. He had been waiting for two months for a response from the casino, which stated they were "looking into the matter" without providing evidence for the suspension. We had asked the casino for clarification and supporting evidence, but it only referred to a general prohibited-practice clause and did not identify any specific conduct or provide records. Because no evidence was supplied within the extended response period, we closed the complaint as unresolved due to insufficient proof from the casino.

Around 2 months ago July 7th I was on playojo and I had deposited $3000 and had a very lucky session playing blackjack, I had hit big and was able to turn the balance into $12000 but after withdrawing $5000, the account had then gotten locked where playojo believes "We’re unable to grant access to this account as it’s linked to activity that may not align with our policies." I've tried contacting the casino but the only response I've received was that they are "looking into the matter". They haven't provided a proper reason/evidence for a suspension which I haven't commited any. This is just a reason to withhold funds in a corrupt system.


It's since been 2 months and i'm still waiting to hear back from them


All KYC was completed before the ban.

I didn't make the balance using any bonus

I passed KYC verification on account signup, so I had access with verification for a while.


This screenshot is the only communication with the casino that I have

Dear PlayOJO Casino Ontario,


Please provide supporting evidence to your claims, for example game logs or screenshots from the system along with specification of behavior, that is against the terms and conditions.

Dear AlexHoang,


Unfortunately, I must close this complaint as unresolved because the casino has not provided supporting evidence within the extended response period.

Although the casino referred to its terms concerning prohibited practices, it did not explain which specific conduct it identified or provide records demonstrating a breach. Referring to a general clause alone is insufficient to establish that withholding your remaining funds was justified.

Despite the opportunity to substantiate its position, the casino has not supplied the evidence needed to assess its allegations. The complaint will therefore remain unresolved due to insufficient evidence from the casino, which may negatively affect its rating.

I am sorry I could not help you achieve a satisfactory resolution. If the casino provides relevant evidence in the future, the complaint can be reconsidered.


In the meantime, I recommend contacting the Licensing Authority (https://casino.guru/licensing-authorities/ontario-license) and submitting a complaint through their official contact form to the regulator. You can find more information about submitting a complaint at https://casino.guru/submitting-complaints-to-regulators.


Best regards,

Mirka
