Unjustified complaint

Case summary

5 months ago

The player from Armenia had reported that Royspins Casino confiscated their $800 winnings and blocked their account, falsely claiming rule violation. They had not received a satisfactory response to their official complaint filed on April 19th. The player had affirmed that they registered their account on March 14, 2024, and played live blackjack without any bonuses. The casino had countered that the player used a card-counting strategy and failed to answer basic blackjack questions correctly during a video verification, indicating fraudulent behavior. Despite the player's insistence on their innocence and readiness for additional verification, the casino had provided video evidence that led us to conclude the player did not play independently and lacked basic knowledge of blackjack. Therefore, we had rejected the complaint.

Hello!

I would like to inform you about a problem I am experiencing with Royspins casino.

Recently, the casino confiscated $800 from my funds and blocked my account, claiming that I had violated their rules.

However, I strongly disagree with these accusations and would like to clarify the situation.

My account was only intended for personal use. When registering, I provided my personal information, including a photo of my passport, a photo of my bank account, and proof of identity via Skype.

Only I have access to this account, and I have not shared my login information with anyone else.

On April 19th, I submitted an official complaint following the casino's rules, but unfortunately, the casino has not changed its decision.

I believe that I have not violated any terms and conditions and have not engaged in any fraudulent activities.

Could you please help me with this matter? I would appreciate it if you could assist me in recovering the $800 that was taken from my account. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

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. 

  • Could you please advise how long ago you registered your account and if you’ve completed the account verification successfully? 
  • Which games you’ve been playing (live casino games, slots, or sports betting)? 
  • Were your winnings accumulated with or without an active bonus, please?
  • If there’s any relevant communication, please forward it 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.

Dear Guru,

I recently registered - on March 14, 2024 and I played only in a live casino (liveblackjack).

The verification of my account was successful and all my winnings have been accumulated without any bonuses. Correspondence with Royspins Casino has been sent to petronela.k@casino.guru.

Thank you for your attention.

Best regards,

Hey, all.


We received a report from the gaming platform that this client was employing a card-counting strategy to gain an advantage in Evolution's BlackJack games. This strategy is a well-known method used by fraudulent groups to profit, which led us to initiate a video verification of the client to confirm the identity of the actual player.


During the identity verification, the client was able to effortlessly answer questions about his personal information, his deposit method, and the amount. However, when asked about the rules of blackjack, the client responded with "don't remember," citing a language barrier. This is considered a valid reason, as explaining game rules in a non-native language can indeed pose a challenge. Therefore, simpler questions were asked in the client's native language (Armenian, with picture cards) that required straightforward and unequivocal answers.


1. Question: What is the value of the "queen" card in blackjack?

The client confidently answered "3." This is incorrect, as the queen, like the jack and king, counts as 10 points.

2. Question: What is the value of the "ace" card in blackjack? 1, 5, or 10?

The client's response was "10." It appears that the client was trying to guess the most logically correct answer. However, this is also incorrect, as the ace can count as either 1 or 11, depending on which results in a more favorable combination.


Given that these questions are basic for anyone who has played blackjack, and considering that the gaming platform specifically reported this client, it indicates that he should be an experienced player. The client also confirmed that he played blackjack alone without any assistance. Thus, it is evident that a professional was playing using both a scheme and the identity of this person. For these reasons, the client's account was blocked, and his balance was confiscated.


We discussed the issue of refunding the last deposit since there was a clear attempt to deceive the casino. We concluded that returning it would likely lead to the professional registering a new identity and attempting the same scheme again, this time prepared for the video verification questions. Therefore, we decided not to return the deposit to the client.


We hope this explanation helps.

Hello,

The check was on April 09, I can't remember what answers I gave to the casino. I don't exclude that the information provided by the casino does not correspond to reality.

Based on an incorrectly given answer (even if it was such), you cannot immediately accuse the player of fraudulent behavior and confiscate all funds.

I still insist that I'm an ordinary gambler and have never used a card counting strategy as indicated by the casino. This is casino speculation.

Like any other person, I tend to get excited when communicating with a casino specialist. Moreover, the Casino did not contact me at a convenient time for me, but called only the next day.

Please take into account the information provided. I'm also ready for any additional verification, you can make sure that I'm not misleading anyone.

Dear Tigranyan,

since you don't refuse the mentioned call, can you confirm the casino's story, or should we require evidence to support their claim? Could you explain how you could win without knowing the answer to their questions? Please note that it must be you using your account, and considering all available information, it is highly unlikely that you could make a profit without understanding any of the blackjack rules.

Dear Guru and Royspins casino,


I declare that my account was used only by me and no third parties had or have access to it! The casino's accusations are far-fetched and untrue. The casino did not provide direct evidence of the use of my account by third parties, because it simply did not happen!


Additionally, I have not found any information in the casino's rules that requires players to memorize game rules and "pass an exam" to casino staff in order to understand blackjack rules. For me, playing at a casino is an entertaining activity, and I rely on my intuition rather than memorizing card values. There are no violations in my behavior!


Also, you yourself pointed out the probability of winning even with an incomplete understanding of the rules! I was fortunate enough to win. 


Therefore, I believe the casino should honor its commitment and make a payment for the funds owed to me, totaling $800 USD.

Dear Tigranyan,


I confirm receiving relevant evidence from the casino team. Upon reviewing the video, there are signs indicating that you did not play independently. Your knowledge of blackjack seemed limited to the fact that it involves cards. The representative made every effort to assist you, attempting to engage in conversation and ask questions in Armenian, but it was evident that you were not familiar with the game.


Concluding all the information above, I am forced to reject this complaint. You have every right not to agree with my opinion. An alternative option is to file an official complaint with the licensing authority of the casino. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or require further assistance.


Kind regards, Jozef
