Case summary

The player from Ireland has his account suspended at iWild Casino after winning €3100 through cash bets without activating a bonus. He has attempted to contact the casino for clarification and assistance in retrieving his winnings but has not received a response.

Public

Hello


I joined iWild Casino in May 2024, and recently I deposited €1000 to claim a Christmas Calendar bonus they had on offer for €1500. The bonus was added to my account, but I chose not to activate it right away (the site allows you to chose).


I played with my cash only and hadn't activated the bonus. I won a lot playing roulette and blackjack, and had withdrawn around 7/8 lots of €500 before my account was locked without any explanation. When I try to log in I'm given a popup that says the casino administration have suspended my account.


I've tried to reach out a few times but to no avail. There is still €3100 in my account, generated solely by cash bets and without the use of any bonus funds.


Your help in retrieving my winnings would be most appreciated, as I note they have a high trust value with yourselves - one of my key reasons for joining them in the first place. I would also like to note that their sister site Snatch Casino have done the exact same thing to me, and I have opened a complaint there. I note there are no terms prohibiting me from holding an account with both casinos.


Kind regards


Johnny

Hello johnnersmys,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Snatch Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

  • Could you please advise if your account is already verified and if yes, since when exactly?
  • Can you please explain how is it possible to "activate" the bonus later if you have claimed it already?
  • When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
  • Did they give you any explanation regarding their decision?


Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

Hi there, sorry for the delay I had a very busy period during the New Year.


Yes my account was verified by iWild on the 3rd Dec 2024

and I have had a handful of withdrawals inbetween being verified and the closure of my account


The casino gives you a bonus but it doesn't automatically active so it allows you to play with cash only and then activate it later if you want, but as I was lucky enough to win some money with just the cash, I decided not to use it and instead just take my winnings.



The only email communication I have had with the casino was getting my account verified and then their email closing my account

They didn't really state why, and I didn't significantly change the way I was playing, may have switched between the odd slot but cannot login to confirm.

Dear johnnersmys,

Would it be possible to forward your deposit, bonus and betting history to nikolas.b@casino.guru for further review?

Sorry for the delay Nick, your previous message didn't come through to my inbox.


I have been completely locked out of the account so I cannot get those details but I will send over the email of the offer, deposit and the error I get when trying to login to my account.

Thank you johnnersmys for all the information provided. To gather further evidence, I will now forward your complaint to my colleague Michal (michal.k@casino.guru) who will be assisting you from now on.

Hello johnnersmys,

I'm Michal, and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed this case and I will contact the casino to shed more light on this matter.

We would like to invite iWild Casino to join the conversation.


Dear iWild Casino,

I would appreciate it if you could clarify the reasons behind the closure of the player's account, as the explanation provided thus far was rather limited. While I understand that casinos have the authority to close any player account at their discretion, it is essential that all financial obligations are settled beforehand. If there were any violations of your policies detected that led to this decision, I kindly request that you share any relevant evidence with me at michal.k@casino.guru.

Dear Michal and johnnersmys,


We will forward the request to the relevant department, verify the information on the situation and provide you with an answer or solution as soon as we receive it.


Best regards,

Dear Michal,


Our anti-fraud team, during the verification of clients' gaming sessions, found intersections on the gaming pattern of several clients. Also, such patterns were found in clients of our sister casino snatch.

A similar compliance is available at the link:


https://casinoguru-en.com/snatch-casino-player-s-account-has-been-closed-and


I ask the Casino Guru team to pay attention to the fact that our grounds on which we relied are: the location of the players, their gaming sessions, bet amounts, as well as wager execution schemes. In addition, intersections were established on making deposits, namely methods and amounts.


Based on these intersections, we came to the conclusion that all these accounts are interconnected, perform actions prohibited by the rules of our project, namely group bets, which may affect the correctness of the game. This violation entails the closure of accounts and the confiscation of winnings.


Best regards,

iwildcasino representative.

Thank you for your response, iWild Casino representative. As far as I know, we are still awaiting some further information from you that my colleague Peter has requested. So we are looking forward to your email.


Dear johnnersmys,

Do any of your family members or friends have an account at iWild Casino or Snatch Casino as well? If so, have you played in the casino from the same location as them, perhaps during a visit?

Public
Public

No, I am confident that no friend or family has ever played from my location or address. Also the link to the other dispute that they linked is my own dispute I opened for their sister site so yes the betting strategy would be the same since their sister site pretty much offers the same bonuses and have very similar terms and conditions.

Dear iwildcasino representative,

Thank you for your email. I have carefully examined the information and evidence you shared. However, I feel that this does not adequately support your decision to withhold the player's winnings at this time. I have outlined our viewpoint on the matter and suggested potential next steps. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Dear Michal,

Dear iwildcasino representative,

Thank you for the update. I trust the new KYC verification will clarify the situation.


Dear johnnersmys,

As previously communicated by my colleague Peter, who is overseeing your other complaint regarding Snatch Casino, the team responsible for both iWild and Snatch Casino will initiate a new KYC verification process with you. I kindly request your full cooperation in this matter, and I hope that it will lead to a resolution of the situation.

Thanks Michal. I haven't heard anything from either iWild or Snatch casino for new KYC but will keep an eye on my email for anything coming in!
