Case summary

The player from Australia had made a deposit, increased their balance to $8,000 using a bonus, and completed the wagering requirements. After requesting a withdrawal when the balance had fallen below $5,000, the player's account was locked the following day, resulting in the forfeiture of the winnings despite prior confirmation that the account had been successfully verified. We engaged with the casino to obtain evidence supporting the alleged bonus fraud and facilitated an independent review of the matter. Following this process, the casino reopened the player's account and reinstated the balance, allowing the player to access the funds and continue using the casino's services. The complaint was subsequently closed as Resolved following the player's confirmation, provided via email, that the funds had been received.

I made a deposit on March 5th and started playing.


I used the deposit bonus to increase my balance to $8000.


After completing the wagering requirements, I continued playing my favorite slots, and when my balance fell below $5000, I requested a withdrawal. Although basic identity verification had been completed, I was repeatedly asked for additional documents.


I submitted everything and received an email confirming account verification, so I felt relieved. However, the next day my account was locked and my balance was forfeited.


I'm not satisfied with this.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Could you please advise which games you focused on - slots, live casino, sports betting, etc.?
  • Did you successfully pass the KYC verification before you lost access to the account?
  • Have you contacted the casino customer support via email to ask about the reason why your account was blocked?

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.

Best regards,

Attila

I only played slots.


Identity verification is complete. The casino requested documents multiple times, and I submitted them each time.


Yes. I inquired and was told it was bonus fraud, but I don't agree.

Dear rienda,

While it appears that the matter has been clarified and you most likely have received the funds, otherwise you would still enquire about them, we have not received confirmation from you on whether this case can be considered sufficiently addressed or if you need additional assistance. Due to your lack of response, we regrettably must move forward with closing this complaint as rejected. I would like to thank the casino team for their cooperation.

If you experience any further issues with this or any other casino in the future, please do not hesitate to reach out to us—we will try our best to assist you.



Best regards,
