Case summary

6 months ago

The player from Portugal had had his account blocked by Ice Casino, which had accused him of bonus fraud. He had insisted that he hadn't activated any bonus. His winnings had been confiscated and the casino had claimed it was irreversible. After a series of exchanges between the player, the Complaints Team, and the casino, it had been established that the player hadn't violated any rules and should have been allowed to withdraw his funds. The casino had agreed to this, and the player had confirmed that he received his money. The issue had thus been resolved satisfactorily.

Ice Casino blocked my account without any reason. They accused me of bonus fraud even though I hadn't even activated the bonus. They seized my money and claim that I can't withdraw it, and they can't do anything about it

Hello,


I deposited 52€ and i played "banca francesa", right now i'm not sure the amount i used to play because i have no acess to my account because they blocked me.


After play i tried to withdraw the money to check if the casino is legit and they proved they are not honest because they block my account and keep my money, i chated with them and they said they blocked my account permanetly. 


The picture below was the email sent by them, i have no access to my account that's why i do not have screenshots of conversations.

Hello archbig2,

I'm Michal and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed your case and I will contact the casino to shed more light on this matter. Just to check, you previously wrote that you have not accepted a bonus, but in the email, the casino team mentioned there is suspicion that you have attempted to commit bonus fraud, so are you sure you have not claimed any bonuses?

We would like to invite IceCasino to join the conversation.


Dear IceCasino,

Can you please provide more information on why the player's account was blocked? Please forward me any evidence of your accusations that the player attempted to defraud your bonuses to michal.k@casino.guru

Hello Michael. In relation to my case, I did not accept any bonus. They sent an email saying that I committed bonus fraud as an excuse for not being able to withdraw my money. I spoke to their customer support when my account was blocked, they checked my account and the person I was speaking said that in fact I had not accepted any bonuses and that they were going to go to some department to see if they could resolve it. something. But to this day I'm still blocked and without my money.

Dear archbig2

The casino would like to know your true intentions for registering at the casino.

Can you also name the games you've played?

Also, we find it suspicious, when the player deposits 52 eur, and withdraws 48.94 EUR.

The main reason I decided to sign up to Ice Casino was a recommendation from a friend, who praised the variety of games on offer and the reliability of the casino. Based on this confidence, I made my first deposit, played some games (I don't remember exactly what they were now, but I think it was the dice and the French bank) and, to test the integrity of the casino, I requested a withdrawal to see if the process was really reliable. However, I was disappointed to discover that shortly after my first deposit, the casino held my money on the first withdrawal. This left me frustrated and worried about my experience at Ice Casino

Dear archbig2,

Did you manage to wager/turn over your deposit 2x ?

Because the casino has this rule:

8.11.6. if the turnover amount is 2 (two) times less than the deposit, the Company reserves the right to withhold 20% of withdrawal in order to cover payment expenses.

Yes, I believe I followed all the rules diligently. Nevertheless, blocking my account without a single warning and retaining the full amount of my funds demonstrates a lack of honesty on the part of the casino. In this case, they retained 100% of my money instead of the 20% as stated in the rules. I find this to be unfair.

Hello all,

The player may withdraw the funds, afterwards the account will be blocked.
