Richard Casino
Safety Index 9.2 Very high

Case summary

The player from Australia had won €1700 but faced account closure and confiscation of his winnings due to alleged multiple account activity, which he denied. His initial deposit had not been returned, and he had been waiting for over a week without receiving any bonuses or free spins. The Complaints Team reviewed the case and found evidence from the casino that indicated the player had created multiple accounts to claim bonuses, violating the casino's terms and conditions. Consequently, the complaint was rejected, and the casino's decision to confiscate the winnings was upheld.

Hi I was living in a share house and my house mate Ben D****** may have had an account active I am not able to 100% confirm that but it is possible and I did pass the verification process and the date I joined might be 3rd of may 2024 or even earlier in March or April . I don't have the exact date as I lost my phone I registered on .

Dear Benjaminsha,

Thank you in advance for providing the information.

Dear Casino Guru Team,


We understand this situation may be frustrating and appreciate the chance to clarify.


Following a standard review during the player's withdrawal request, our team identified a duplicate account created with identical personal details to the original one. These data points — such as name, date of birth, email patterns, or financial information — confirmed a clear connection between the accounts. Additionally, the deposit bonus was claimed on both accounts within a 30-day period — a clear case of bonus abuse, which is a serious violation of our Terms.


As per our Terms & Conditions:

"You are allowed to create and own only one (1) account at a time. Creation, possession, or usage of more than one (1) account (hereinafter - "Duplicate") leads to the cancellation of all payments to You and termination of the account(s) in violation of that rule by the applicable Violations Policy. Any bonuses or winnings received or accrued during the playthrough using a Duplicate account will be reclaimed by the Casino in full per the Violations Policy."


We would also like to confirm that the initial deposit was successfully refunded at the time of account closure. If the player has not yet received the funds or requires a transaction confirmation, please contact our support team via the registered email address used on your main account, and we will be happy to provide documentation.


We understand that this outcome may be disappointing, but we are committed to upholding a fair and secure gaming environment for all our players. 


Should you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.


Kind regards,

RichardCasino Team

Dear Benjamin and Casino Guru Team,


We understand that the situation you are facing can be unpleasant and frustrating. Believe us, we always strive to be fair and just in dealing with such matters.


We would like to note that during the investigation, we found a duplicate account with the same personal data, which is a violation of our Terms and Conditions. It was also recorded that both accounts received a bonus within 30 days, which is considered bonus abuse.


As for the deposit refund, we confirm that it was made at the time of account closure. If you have not received your funds or would like to receive a transaction confirmation, please contact our support team using the email address registered to your main account. Our department will prepare all the necessary details.


You’re welcome to get in touch with us anytime should you need more information.


Kind regards,

The notification I got for this is labled with stay casino ,is that associated with this service or Richard casino ? Because that's a conflict regarding duplicate accounts as where if someone signs up to both of them they are breaching a rule even if they didn't know they are run by the same operator .in my case is this what has happened ?

We would like to inform you that the documents that were provided by the player were cropped, and unfortunately, we are unable to accept them in their current form.

To proceed with the current request in full accordance with all relevant regulations, we kindly ask the player to provide us with new photos of their ID card (both front and back), making sure that all four corners of the document are clearly visible and are in the frame.


We have already requested the correct documents in the letter; however, we haven't received a reply from the player.

Dear CasinoGuru Team,


We would like to inform you that the account of the player who has passed the verification has been closed and the winnings have been confiscated due to the violation of the platform rules, namely the creation of multiple accounts.


According to the Terms and Conditions, each user is allowed to have only one account. As a result of the internal investigation, we have reasonable grounds to believe that several accounts were created and used by the same person, as the personal information about the account holder is the same on both accounts, despite the verification of the main profile.


Such actions violate the principles of fair play and contradict the rules of our service. Therefore, in accordance with our Rules, we decided to close the account and cancel the winnings.


Best regards,

Richard Casino Team

Dear Richard Casino,

Thank you for your email and the information you have provided.


Dear Benjaminsha,

We were provided with evidence by the casino representative, and it appears you created multiple accounts, intending to claim the welcome bonus multiple times. This behaviour is strictly against the casino's terms and conditions, and we agree with the casino's decision.

Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be rejected. Thank you for your understanding, I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into any issues with this or any other casino in the future.
