Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom had his account at Smash Casino closed after he won £270, despite being fully verified and receiving confirmation from the KYC department. The casino only refunded his deposit and confiscated his winnings, citing a breach of Terms and Conditions without specifying any details or evidence. The Complaints Team contacted the casino for clarification but received no response. Consequently, the complaint was marked as unresolved due to the lack of cooperation from the casino, and the player was advised to escalate the issue to the relevant gaming authority for further assistance.

I registered and played at Smash Casino after depositing approximately £100. I played normally and later won approximately £270. Following my withdrawal request, the casino requested KYC verification documents. I submitted all requested documents, and afterward I received confirmation from the KYC department that my account was "fully verified."

After my account had already been verified, the casino suddenly informed me that my account was permanently closed due to an alleged breach of their Terms and Conditions. However, they did not specify which exact rule I allegedly breached, nor did they provide any evidence supporting this accusation.

The casino refunded only my deposit and confiscated my winnings.

I believe this is unfair because:

the casino accepted my deposits,

allowed me to play normally,

completed full KYC verification,

and only after I requested withdrawal did they suddenly claim a breach of Terms and Conditions.

I contacted the casino requesting:

the exact clause allegedly breached,

details of the alleged violation,

and evidence supporting their decision,

but I have not received a meaningful response.

I am requesting assistance in reviewing this dispute and helping obtain a fair resolution regarding my confiscated winnings.

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?

  • 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? 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.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Manoj10796,


I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly but had no success. I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Anjouan Gaming Authority (https://casino.guru/licensing-authorities/comoros-license) and submit a complaint to them. The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players.


You can find more information on how to properly submit a complaint to the regulator at https://casino.guru/submitting-complaints-to-regulators.


I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Mirka Dubasova
