Whale.io Casino - Player's account has been closed.

I was banned for section 15 of their TOS after having an account for multiple months and i dont know what i did wrong. I won some prize money in an affiliate tournament and had some balance totaling up to approx. 1700 USDT. The day after the affiliate tournament i was banned. This was the second tournament i entered. For the first one i received the payment. The TOS is very unclear to me and i believe they just made something up to not pay out the money. Attached the screenshot of the answer of the support. I dont have any other things that i can provide as my access to the account is revoked.

Hi, unfortunately i can not login into my account anymore. They blocked me from doing that. This is their response:

Therefore im unable to send any screenshots or anything.

Dear lolaff12,

• Can you share any link or screenshot of this tournament, please?

I play at this casino for approx. 5 months and am verified for 5 months too.

It was a tournament where a prize gets distributed to the top affiliates. As i have refered a high roller friend i was placed first or second in that tournament with that 1700 USDT price money.

Unfortunately this tournament is already over so i dont have a screenshot from it and the day or two after the tournament ended and i should have received my payout i got banned.

Hi Peter,

I have already reached out to you by email and sent additional information regarding the case. Please feel free to contact me by email if you have any further questions.

Thank you for the update Whale.io Casino representative. I have responded to your email, and I await your response.

Dear lolaff12, I will keep you updated about any new developments. Thank you for your patience during this time!

Dear lolaff12, the casino representative refuses to share evidence regarding your case, citing GDPR. As per the regulation, you, as an account holder, can request to transmit your data to another controller (in this case, Casino Guru) without hindrance from the controller (the casino operator) to which the personal data has been provided. As such, I would like you to formally request that the evidence be provided to us. You can request this transfer through the casino support team. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Hi, ive created a ticket with ID: 54951429 on whale.io website. The AI support was not helpful, but i have requested it there. Their support system is pretty bad, because you never get a response via email or see what they said if your account is suspended unless you stay in the browser window and wait multiple hours or longer for their response. (If i close the browser and open it again eventually the support ticket disappears)

Thank you for the update lolaff12.

Dear Whale.io Casino representative, could you update us on the situation with the provision of the requested evidence? Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Dear lolaff12,

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. 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 might 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. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Anjouan Gaming Authority and submit a complaint to them through the validator on the casino website (validator link). The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players. Please let me know if you need help with submitting the complaint or how they responded if you can do it on your own (peter.c@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
