Case summary

8 months ago

The player from Norway has a problem with withdrawal due to a pending KYC verification process. Despite providing the required details, he has not received any response or updates on his verification status from the casino's support team. After we contacted the casino, it turned out that the case was purely sports betting related so we were forced to reject the complaint.

Hi, I wanted to withdraw the 15th of July. I was asked to provide kyc details the day after. I provided it. I have since not heard anything. I cant withdraw during this time due to this error message: "user does not have withdrawal accsess". I have asked multiple times regarding the status of my verification. I have received no answer from their support on live chat or email. Hope to hear from all parties soon.

Hey everyone!


First off, my apologies for our late answer in this thread. Natalia, I have just sent you an email to natalia.b@casino.guru asking for permissions for some of my colleagues to answer to complaints as well. This way we can ensure faster responses here on CasinoGuru.


In regards to the User's complaint:

  • I can confirm that the user signed up on the 29th of June on our platform
  • He started placing bet's on multiple sport events (see screenshot attached)
  • On the 15th of July our Sport's and Odd's Provider "Betby" alerted us of fraudulent activity from the user
  • We then deactivated the users account and requested KYC while we investigate their sports activity


We have just contacted our odd's provider again asking them on an update on the investigation.


@Natalia I will also send you Screenshots of the conversation with our odds provider where it can be seen that they confirm fraudulent activity from the user.


Best regards,

Max

Hi,

 

It is the first time I have been accused of this by heybets (or any other casino for that matter). I am flabbergasted. To understand why, 03.08.23, I received this email from heybets:

 

 "Hey hubby! :) Your account is now fully verified.🎉 Please note that you can only withdraw after you have wagered your deposit at least once due to §10.2. of our Terms of Service (https://heybets.io/tos). In your case, you still need to wager 6341,23$ before being able to withdraw. If you have any further questions or concerns don't hesitate to contact our support team.🤝 Best regards, Luke"

 

I played some bets in heybets casino and replied that I had wagered 6400+ usd, but was not able to withdraw. No reponse. No payment.

 

To go from the email 03.08.23 to heybets message above in this thread, to their email 03.08.23. It doesn’t seem as if my account had done any "fraudulent activity". But 18.08.23, I have? Keep in mind that I could place bets in their sportsbook and casino during the time, 15.07.23 to 03.08.23.

 

 

If I must take heybets accusation of "fraudulent activity" seriously, I will say this. I strongly reject heybets claim of "fraudulent activity" in the sportsbook. If I remember correctly the bets I made were placed on champions league qualifiers which finished 11.07.23 and 12.07.23. Their odds provider said, three days later, that these bets where fraudulent? Their oddsproviders odds on this market was in line with the rest of the market at the time I

placed the bets. I placed the bets due to injury news, and the odds dropped the days before the match. To bet on injury news and describe that as fraudulent is strong worded. I welcome proof from your odds provider to be shared. I have placed a number in bets in my life. Never have "fraudulent activity" come up to describe my bets, ever. Not from sportsbooks. Not from odds providers. Not from casinos. None (please see my complaints from 2019 until today). But heybets have.

 

Heybets say in the casino.guru message above: "On the 15th of July our Sport's and Odd's Provider "Betby" alerted us of fraudulent activity from the user. We then deactivated the users account and requested KYC while we investigate their sports activity."

 

 

I will quote once again the email heybets email from 3th of August:

 

 "Hey hubby! :) Your account is now fully verified.🎉 Please note that you can only withdraw after you have wagered your deposit at least once due to §10.2. of our Terms of Service (https://heybets.io/tos). In your case, you still need to wager 6341,23$ before being able to withdraw. If you have any further questions or concerns don't hesitate to contact our support team.🤝 Best regards, Luke"

 

 

 


I welcome scrutiny. If heybets need anything from me, they have my email. I believe my play at heybets was fair both in the sportsbook and casino. I fully expect my deposit and winnings to be paid. With respect, I ask heybets to reconsider this case.

 

 

Best regards,

hptm

Dear hptm,

As your case is sports betting related, unfortunately, we don't have a branch dealing with sports betting yet. If you didn’t know that yet, our Casino.guru complaint forum deals with complaints regarding online casinos and online casino games only. Although we have received some information from the casino, we wouldn't be able to advise you correctly as we don't have enough insight into sports betting. We wouldn't be able to judge competently all the pros and cons, therefore, we have to reject your complaint. Thank you for your understanding.

We’re truly sorry we couldn’t be of more help in this case.

If you run into any issues with this or any other casino regarding casino games in the future, don’t hesitate to contact us.

Natalia
