My account was blocked and the payment canceled because I made a deposit using my friend's Neteller account ....
but he was able to verify himself completely and authorized me in writing to use the account ...
further reason was that there was a second account (from my friend) but this was set up at a completely different address a long time ago ...
in the general terms and conditions of the casino only the use of bank accounts and credit cards from third parties is prohibited.
In addition there is the verification of third party e-wallets as options in the document upload. That is clearly misleading.
at other casinos the use of the Neteller account was not a problem after the owner's written approval ...

Dear Mophet,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I have checked terms and conditions, and this is what I found https://www.platincasino.com/en/support/terms-and-conditions.html:
„Deposits can be made into the account by the payment methods that are available on the Red Rhino website (Red Rhino Ltd – the owner of the website). The name on the credit card or the bank transfer should be identical to that of the player receiving the funds. If this is not the case, the deposit will be rejected and the funds paid back. Any charges levied by the banks/payment gateways will be deducted from the reversed amount."
As you mentioned, this applies to card and bank transfers only and those deposits should be rejected and paid back.
However, when I have opened an account and wanted to verify it, I found this https://www.platincasino.com/en/profile/verify.html:
"Verification of payment method
legible bank or credit card statement stating your address (amounts covered)
copy of your credit or banker’s card (please cover your CVV and the first 12 digits of your credit card number)
screenshot of your Skrill or Neteller accounts (stating your name and account ID)"
Moreover, your case is a bit more complicated as your friend has an account in this casino too. Could you please advise if you, or your friend, have redeemed any Welcome bonuses? Please forward any relevant communication to petronela.k@casino.guru.
I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.
Best regards,
Petronela

Hello
First of all, thank you for your efforts and offering support in such cases ...
fat praise for it ...
yes my friend definitely took bonuses ...
he doesn't play that much at the moment ...
I also pointed this out to the casino support during the verification process and they repeatedly requested additional documents and evidence, authorizations etc. which I have provided.
Then my account including the payment and payment method was initially completely released and approved so that I could even request the payment and of course I was very happy ...
then the payment was canceled without warning and my account blocked ... on request this was justified with the use of the Neteller account ...
so somehow very bad and arbitrary
thanks again for your help
best regards

Hi Mophet,
I'm taking over your complaint. As Petronela mentioned before, your case is quite complicated since your friend also has an account in the casino and accepted bonuses. You should never use other people's bank accounts or e wallets to register in any casinos. Most of the casinos suspect a fraud and it only causes problems. I can't guarantee a positive result, but I will contact the casino and see what can be done.

Hi Mophet,
I received an email from a casino rep. The result is as expected - you will not receive the full amount of your winnings. However, the casino will refund your deposits. Please let me know if you got the deposits back.
