On August 20, 2026, I received an email from Pokobet Support (agent Castiel) informing me that my account had been permanently closed and my entire balance of €4,999.41 was subtracted.


The casino cited Section 6 of their Terms of Use (Section 6.1 - 6.3 regarding prohibited activities) in general terms, but failed to specify which exact sub-clause I allegedly violated. They provided zero concrete evidence, technical logs, or specific grounds to justify this drastic measure.


I strongly deny engaging in any prohibited conduct, including but not limited to:


Multi-accounting, shared, proxy, or duplicate accounts


Fraud, collusion, bonus abuse, or automated tools/bots


Third-party payment usage or security bypasses


I operated my account strictly for personal recreational gameplay and fully complied with all terms and conditions. I immediately sent a formal appeal to Pokobet requesting specific details and evidence regarding their allegations, but my funds remain confiscated without justification.


I request Pokobet to either restore my account balance of €4,999.41 in full or provide clear, concrete technical evidence of any alleged violation to CasinoGuru for independent verification. If no clear breach can be proven, the full amount must be paid out to me

Dear Tomas,


Thank you for taking on my case and assisting me with this dispute against Poko.bet Casino.


Here are the details and answers to your questions:


Account History & Closure Date: I registered my account on August 11, 2026. My account was blocked on August 20, 2026.


How I Learned About the Closure: I was informed directly via an email from Pokobet Support (agent Castiel) on August 20, 2026, stating that my account had been permanently closed and my balance of €4,999.41 was confiscated.


Games Played: I accumulated my balance by playing Crash games and Slots.


Bonus Usage: Yes, I achieved my balance with the help of a bonus, and I fully completed all wagering requirements in strict compliance with the promotional terms.


Communication History: I have forwarded the full email thread—including Pokobet's initial termination email citing Section 6 and my formal appeal asking for specific evidence—to your email address (tomas@casino.guru).


As noted in my appeal to the casino, Pokobet cited Section 6 of their Terms of Use in broad terms but refused to provide any specific sub-clause, technical evidence, or detailed reasoning for the confiscation. I operated my account strictly for personal recreational play and fully complied with all terms.


Please let me know if you need any additional screenshots or account details. I greatly appreciate your help in resolving this matter.


Best regards
