Dear Pakol93,
Thank you for your detailed reply and for clarifying the situation.
After carefully reviewing all the information you provided, we understand that you and your wife are a married couple and that the situation was not an intentional attempt to abuse the casino. However, there are several important factors that significantly limit our ability to intervene in this case.
You confirmed that:
- Both accounts were accessed from the same device
- Bonuses were claimed on the accounts
From our perspective, the key issue is that when two casino accounts are accessed from the same device, we have no objective way to verify who was physically operating that device at any given time. In other words, we are unable to prove that two different individuals were using the accounts separately, rather than one person controlling multiple accounts from the same device.
In the online gambling environment, this type of situation is commonly flagged as potential multi-accounting, especially when bonuses are involved. Casinos are generally entitled, under their anti-fraud and anti-multi-accounting rules, to close accounts and confiscate winnings if they cannot reliably distinguish between separate users.
We fully understand that this may feel unfair, particularly if there was no intention to break any rules. However, since we are unable to conclusively demonstrate that the accounts were operated independently by two different individuals, we unfortunately cannot challenge the casino’s decision or request a refund of the confiscated funds.
I’m very sorry that we cannot bring you more positive news in this case.
Best regards
Veronika
