The player from Portugal had self-excluded from a casino but later allegedly deposited 0.931 BTC. The casino had subsequently closed his account and kept his deposited funds, and was not responding to his attempts to make contact. The player had provided evidence of the deposit, which he had made an hour after requesting self-exclusion. However, the casino had provided evidence suggesting no such transaction had occurred. We reviewed the evidence and found it to be in favor of the casino. Therefore, we had to reject the player's complaint. The player had been advised to contact the casino's gaming authority for further assistance.

The casino has closed my account and kept my deposit.
They are not even responding to my emails and messages.

Hello Dezanove19,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Empire.io Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.
Could you please advise when exactly did you request for the self-exclusion and how long after that did you deposit? Can you please forward the self-exclusion request you sent to the casino to nikolas.b@casino.guru? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
Looking forward to your answer.
Regards,
Nick

I've already sent everything by email.
I placed the order on chat and they said I had to send an email.
I accidentally deposited it about an hour later.
I don't care about my money, nothing more.
it ended up in the Empire.io wallet according to the screenshot I already sent.

Hello Dezanove19,
When exactly did this deposit happen? Have your account been ever verified? If the exclusion was processed only a few days earlier, I would simply recommend to wait as every payment may take up to 14 days to be processed.

It's very strange that they don't respond to anything! They don't say anything about my deposit, it was 0.931 BTC, which as everyone knows is rising!
It's a lot of money and I need it!

Hello Dezanove19,
I received pretty detailed evidence from the casino. After reviewing the evidence, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you. The data suggests that there were no transactions of 0.931 BTC from your wallet. Secondly, the transaction hash that you provided is incomplete and finally, the casino never received any funds from you after the self-exclusion. Unfortunately, your complaint will be rejected. If you disagree with our decision, please turn to the casino's gaming authority (https://casino.guru/licensing-authorities/curacao-license-4) for further assistance. I wish I could be of more help.
Best regards,
Peter
