Dear C1t0x3,
Thank you for your last message. I’m sorry to hear how upsetting this situation has been for you.
After carefully reviewing all the information you provided, I need to be transparent and clear about our conclusion.
You have confirmed that you used your wife’s credit cards to deposit funds into your own casino account. This is considered a third-party deposit, which is explicitly prohibited under the casino’s Terms and Conditions and also conflicts with standard AML (anti-money-laundering) requirements that apply across the industry.
If the deposits had been made from a joint bank account held in both your and your wife’s name, this would be a different situation and something we could further assess. However, using payment methods registered exclusively in another person’s name is regarded as a serious breach of the rules. In such cases, casinos are generally entitled to forfeit winnings and block the account once the violation is identified.
I understand your argument that these payment methods were used for a long time without issue. However, the fact that the casino did not detect or act on the violation earlier does not invalidate the rule itself, nor does it create an obligation for the casino to pay out winnings once a breach is confirmed. Each player is responsible for ensuring that their account details are accurate and that all deposits are made using their own funds and payment methods.
For these reasons, we are unable to challenge the casino’s decision or request the payment of the disputed winnings. As a result, this complaint must be rejected.
I know this is not the outcome you were hoping for, but I want to be honest with you about the limits of what we can reasonably pursue in this case.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,
