Case summary

The player from Thailand had requested a withdrawal of THB 42,921 from W88 but was accused of violating terms without evidence. The casino had refunded only THB 8,000, locked his account, and was withholding THB 34,921. The Complaints Team had attempted to mediate the situation but faced challenges due to the casino's lack of cooperation and absence of a valid license. Consequently, the complaint was marked as "unresolved," with the hope that the casino's rating decrease might prompt a response in the future.

I requested to withdraw THB 42,921 from W88. After some delay, they accused me of violating their terms without giving any evidence. Then they refunded only THB 8,000 and locked my account.


I only used one account, deposited real money, and followed all terms and conditions. I did not receive a no-deposit bonus and never knowingly violated any rules. The remaining THB 34,921 is still being withheld unfairly.


I respectfully request Casino Guru’s help to investigate this matter and recover my remaining balance.

Hello Veronika,


Thank you very much for assisting me with this complaint.


Let me explain my full situation below:


- I requested to withdraw 42,921 THB on July 15, 2025.

- I received only 8,000 THB back, which the casino claimed as a refund.

- The remaining 34,921 THB was confiscated, and my account was locked.

- I used a 10% bonus with a 10x wagering requirement. I received confirmation from the casino that the wagering had been completed.

- I played only **sports betting**, no slots or live casino games.

- The casino accused me of having multiple accounts, but I strongly confirm that I have **only one account**, and I’m willing to cooperate and prove this.

- The casino did **not** specify which exact Terms & Conditions I allegedly violated.

- I have not yet completed KYC because the casino never asked me for documents. However, I am **fully ready to submit all documents** for identity verification immediately.


This has caused a lot of mental and financial stress. I sincerely hope you can help me resolve this and recover my remaining funds.


Best regards,

Dear Peter,


Thank you once again for assisting with my complaint.


I would like to emphasize again that I have only one account with W88 and have never created or used multiple accounts. I did not use any VPN or IP-masking software while accessing the site.


The accusation made by W88 is completely false. I completed the required wagering conditions using the 10% bonus with a 10x turnover, and the withdrawal request was made in good faith.


However, the casino refunded only 8,000 THB and confiscated the remaining 34,921 THB. Moreover, my account was suddenly locked and I can no longer access it.


This is very distressing, and I hope Casino Guru can help resolve this issue fairly. I am also willing to complete the KYC process at any time if required.


Thank you very much for your support.


Sincerely,

Phakin Pringtragul

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.

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. Since the casino operates without a valid license and doesn't refer to any ADR service, there is no gaming authority to turn to.

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 could 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.

I can only recommend you choose casinos by their reviews and ratings in the future to avoid situations like this. I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
