Case summary

The player from Japan, who had reached VIP status, faced issues with a withdrawal request that was canceled after she was asked for new KYC documents. Her account was then locked, and she did not receive satisfactory answers from customer support. We reviewed the case and requested evidence from the casino to support their alleged violations of terms and conditions. Despite some information provided, the casino failed to supply sufficient evidence for an independent and thorough assessment. Consequently, the complaint was closed as unresolved due to insufficient evidence from the casino, and the confiscation of her winnings was considered unjustified at that time.

I have withdrawn money from this casino before and have played there enough to reach a VIP level.

However, when I applied for withdrawal this time, I was asked for new KYC documents.

When I submitted it, my withdrawal request was canceled and my account was locked.

I contacted support but didn't get a satisfactory answer.

Is this a scam casino that will refuse to withdraw large amounts of money for some reason?

Please conduct an investigation

Hello,

Thank you for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve experienced. May I ask a few questions to better understand the situation?

  • Could you please tell me which games you were focused on — slots, live casino, sports betting, etc.?
  • Had you received any information regarding the status of the verification before you lost access to the account?
  • Were your winnings accumulated while a bonus was active, or without an active bonus?

I hope we can help resolve this issue promptly. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Kristina

I only played slots.


I have withdrawn funds before and passed KYC verification. When I applied for withdrawal this time, I was asked for another form of identification, which I submitted.

The casino did not provide any further information regarding the document, and my account was locked.


You won while the bonus was active.

After that, I completed the wagering requirements for the bonus.

Dear yasue336,

I have been in contact with the casino team regarding your case, including communication outside of this thread. The casino team has shared certain information and evidence that raises some legitimate questions, and their actions may be partially understandable. However, despite multiple requests, the casino team has not yet provided the additional information and evidence required for us to independently and comprehensively assess the situation.

I have once again urged the casino team to provide clear and substantiated evidence to support the allegations made against you. Should the casino team fail to do so, I will be compelled to close the case as unresolved, which would negatively impact the casino’s safety index rating.

Dear yasue336,

I have been in communication with the casino team; unfortunately, there have been no new developments to report.

As I previously mentioned, the casino has provided certain information and evidence that raises valid questions, which may partially clarify their actions. However, despite our repeated requests, the casino team has not supplied the additional information and evidence necessary for us to conduct an independent and thorough assessment of the situation.

Consequently, we are currently unable to support the casino’s actions, and it appears that the confiscation of your winnings is unjustified at this time.

This lack of transparency does not align with the principles of fair practice that we strive to uphold to ensure a fair gambling environment for both players and operators.

As a result, we regret to inform you that we must close this complaint as Unresolved—Insufficient evidence from the casino.

I understand that this is not the resolution you were hoping for, but we believe that the decrease in the casino’s rating due to unresolved complaints may encourage them to reassess their approach. Should the casino choose to respond and resolve the matter, we will reopen your complaint and notify you via email. In the meantime, if you wish to pursue your case further, you may submit a complaint to the Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA) via email at complaints@cga.cw. You may also find our article on How to submit a complaint to a regulator | Casino Guru helpful. Although the CGA currently does not handle individual disputes between players and gaming operators, they may review the situation for potential violations of law. Please let me know how they respond at michal.k@casino.guru if you decide to pursue this option.

I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide more assistance on this occasion.


Best regards,

Michal
