Unjustified complaint

REJECTED

Case summary

The player from Russia had registered at Jet Casino, completed the verification process, and won 7800 euros after meeting the bonus requirements. However, after requesting a withdrawal, the account was blocked for video verification and alleged rule violations, with the player claiming to have followed all rules and seeking clarification. The Complaints Team reviewed the situation and found that the casino had provided sufficient evidence regarding the player's failure to correctly answer questions during the video call, leading to the conclusion that a serious breach of terms had occurred. Consequently, the complaint was closed as unjustified, with the casino's actions deemed appropriate under its terms and conditions.

I registered at Jet Casino, filled out all the information about myself, uploaded a photo with my passport and a selfie with it for verification, then activated the welcome bonus and made a deposit. My currency was Ethereum, and the deposit amount was 0.15 ETH, around 350 euros. The bonus was 100% of the deposit and 500 free spins (I did not activate the spins). After that, my total balance, including bonus funds, was around 700 euros, and I went to play a slot by the provider Pragmatic Play called Fortune of Giza, with bets of 20 euros. I won 7800 euros and continued playing with bets of around 5 euros. I met the bonus/wager requirements, and my balance was approximately 7300 euros. I requested a withdrawal, then had to contact the administration through support chat to confirm the withdrawal address. Everything was approved, and after about 12 hours, my account was blocked for video verification. I wrote in the chat and started the video verification process and answered questions related to my account, after which I was told I need to wait about 72 hours. Now, my account is blocked due to a violation of the site rules, specifically 18.2 and 18.3. The rules are very vague, and in the chat, they refused to explain the reason for the block in more detail. I do not agree with this decision as I used the platform honestly and followed all the rules. Additionally, please note that I am currently using a VPN on the Casino Guru site because my internet provider does not allow me to access it directly, but I played in the casino without using a VPN.

Dear Rach,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience. I checked the bonus T&Cs and I found this: 

"1.2.6 Any granted bonus has a limit regarding the maximum bet placed to wager the bonus. If the rules of a specific bonus do not specify the maximum percentage/amount of the bonus bet allowed, then no more than 5 € of the placed bet shall be used to wager the bonus. For players from Finland, no more than 3 € of the placed bet shall be used to wager the bonus." 

Our position is closely explained in Fair Gambling Codex https://casino.guru/fair-gambling-codex-for-casinos#max-bets: The max bet rule is, in fact, an industry-standard, just as the fact that a casino has the right to seize the player's winnings from bonus play after breaking this rule. We prefer not to go against industry standards by penalizing casinos that use the maximum bet rule against players from time to time. 

However, if you feel like you have been accused mistakenly, feel free to forward me your game history together with a link to the specific bonus that you redeemed and played. My email address is dominika.l@casino.guru.

If there is any other relevant communication between you and the casino, please send it as well. 

Thank you in advance for your reply. 

Best regards,

Dominika

Dear Jet Casino team,

Could you please explain the player's situation in more detail? Why has the user's account been blocked? Have his winnings been confiscated?

If we are talking about a breach of the casino's Terms and Conditions, is the casino able to substantiate its claims and decision with relevant evidence?

Feel free to send the necessary details and supporting evidence to my email address (branislav.b@casino.guru).

Hello! I registered and played myself and answered all the questions that I was asked on the video call that they requested, and I do not really understand how the casino decided to make such accusations.

Dear Rach,

The casino provided sufficient evidence to substantiate its claims and decision.

Although you answered all the questions that you were asked during the video call, some of them were not answered correctly (while you mentioned some of those things above, in your first post, with exact details and amounts), and there are reasonable grounds to believe that the person who attended the verification video call was not the same as the one who registered and played with the casino account, which means a serious breach of the rules.

After gathering all the necessary information and details, we are closing this complaint as unjustified due to breaching the casino's terms and conditions - the applied rules were stated above. However, it is generally prohibited to use someone else's (a 3rd party's) identity/personal details upon registration/play at any online casino. Each player is obliged to verify their identity, that they are the rightful owner of the casino account, and pass a verification video call if needed. Unfortunately, you did not pass the video call, which made the KYC/verification impossible. Since successful verification is mandatory for withdrawing anything from a casino account, the casino acted in accordance with its terms and conditions, which you accepted upon registration, and we accept their decision.

If you are not satisfied with the complaint solution, I recommend you consult the gambling authority that the casino is regulated by.


Thank you very much, Jet Casino Team, for your help and cooperation!


Best regards,

Branislav, Casino.Guru
