REJECTED

Case summary

11 months ago

The player from the Netherlands, who held Spanish citizenship, had been playing at the casino for several months and made regular withdrawals. However, the casino blocked her account and refused to refund her winnings due to her Spanish citizenship. Despite our efforts to communicate and clarify the situation, the player did not respond to our messages and inquiries. Consequently, we were unable to further investigate or provide potential solutions to the issue. The case was therefore rejected due to the player's lack of response.

I have been playing there for several months. When I used to win, I would make a withdrawal, sometimes it would take several days, but still, I received the money. Now they say that because I am a Spanish citizen they will not refund my money, and they have blocked my account. I am going to take legal action against them. I have everything on WhatsApp.

Dear leidseplace,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Can you specify the country of your permanent residence?
  • Am I correct in understanding that the casino is withholding winnings based on your citizenship?
  • Have you previously received any winnings from this casino?
  • Has your account undergone complete verification?

I attempted to access the website from Spain, but encountered an IP block.

However, there were no issues accessing the website from the Netherlands. Upon reviewing the general terms and conditions, I found the following information (here):

Hello, they blocked my account when I tried to refund my money earned. That's how it went. I no longer go to Jigar on any website other than Holland online casino. The depository and refund is immediate. Without any type of problems. THOSE casinos with licenses in Curacao or similar sites are scams.

I reside in the Netherlands. I am Spanish, when I registered I sent my ID and entered all the corrective information. And for many months I was playing without problems. When I won it took them a while to get the money in, but they did. But I no longer have that problem, at Holland online casino the entry to my ing account is immediate. I'm amazed at how well Alli works.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
