Unjustified complaint

REJECTED

Case summary

11 months ago

The player from Finland had submitted the required KYC documents to the casino, but the account had been locked and the casino was withholding the player's funds. The player had admitted to using a VPN to access the casino from a restricted location, USA, which was a direct violation of the casino's terms and conditions. The casino had provided evidence of this breach. The player insisted they had never used a VPN for the casino and that they were based in Finland. After reviewing all the information and evidence, we had concluded that the complaint was unjustified as the casino had acted in accordance with its terms and conditions due to the player's breach.

so they asked me for kyc which i gave them and they still locked my account not giving me my funds 1.1k and just ignoring my messages they have my id they have my adress everything what they needed . i told them before im from usa becouse i used vpn to play in stake.us so i forgot to switch it off since i was thinking i can get in trouble and now they use it against me im from latvia/finland where i can play the casino. be aware that if you gonna gamble there and win something you will not get your money. i will try to add pictures from all our conversations asswel but they simply just ignored me now.even people who promoted them dropped them and called them a scam. be very carefull once i try to solve the problem or go in theyr discord they will simply ban you from it.

Dear gunarsa,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your issue with Sherbet Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to make sure I understand your situation completely.

Could you please confirm if you passed the KYC verification?

Could you kindly specify if you used all your correct personal details when registering in the casino?

When exactly did you claim that you were from the USA?

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards

Veronika

Hello gunarsa,

I'm Michal and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed this case, and as you confirmed that you have used a VPN to access the casino website, I'm afraid there is not much that can be done as Sherbet Casino has this mentioned in its T&Cs

5. Your Warranties
You are accessing Sherbet.com from a jurisdiction in which it is legal to do so
You will not use our services while located in any jurisdiction that prohibits the placing and/or accepting of bets online and/or playing casino and/or live games
11. Prohibited Uses
The attempt to manipulate your real location through the use of VPN, proxy, or similar services or the provision of incorrect or misleading information about your place of residence, with the intent to circumvent geo-blocking or jurisdiction restrictions, constitutes a breach of Clause 5 of this policy

I will contact Sherbet Casino to provide us with evidence of this, but as mentioned, I'm afraid there is not much that can be done if there is a clear breach of the casino's T&Cs.

We would like to invite Sherbet Casino to join the conversation


Dear Sherbet Casino,

Can you please provide more information about the situation and forward me evidence of the breaches to michal.k@casino.guru?

Dear Casino Guru Community,


We want to address the ongoing discussion concerning a withdrawal request from the player Marvyyy on our platform. Our detailed investigation revealed that the account was initially registered from a location that is not supported by our services. When the player attempted to withdraw, we initiated our standard Know Your Customer (KYC) process, as is customary for such transactions. During this process, the player disclosed being in the United States, a region from which we cannot accept players due to regulatory constraints. This admission directly breaches our terms of service and regulatory compliance obligations.


Further actions taken on the account raised additional security concerns. Notably, a streamer contacted us seeking assistance with the same account's withdrawal, purporting to help a 'friend'. This unusual approach to a sensitive process, such as a withdrawal request, raised additional red flags about the legitimacy of the activities on the account.


Given these factors, our decision to withhold the withdrawal strictly follows our policies regarding account security and regulatory compliance. Such decisions are made with the utmost seriousness to ensure the integrity and fairness of our gaming environment.


We understand the importance of transparency in such matters and are committed to maintaining a secure and responsible gaming experience. We are more than willing to discuss this further should there be any questions or concerns.


Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Sincerely,


Sherbet Customer Support Team

Dear gunarsa,

A quick update for you: I'm still in the process of acquiring additional details from the Sherbet Casino Team to gain a comprehensive understanding of the situation.

Am I correct in understanding that you created your casino account without using a VPN from your country of residence, Finland? Have you entered your address details in Finland within your casino account information?

Thank you for your email and for providing evidence, Sherbet Casino Team.


Dear gunarsa,

After gathering all the necessary information and evidence, we are closing this complaint as unjustified due to breaching the casino's terms and conditions:

11. Prohibited Uses
The attempt to manipulate your real location through the use of VPN, proxy, or similar services or the provision of incorrect or misleading information about your place of residence, with the intent to circumvent geo-blocking or jurisdiction restrictions, constitutes a breach of Clause 5 of this policy


You even reached out to casino support and informed them that you were in a restricted area. The casino acted in accordance with its terms and conditions, and we accept its decision.

I am sorry we were not able to help you with this one, but please, do not hesitate to contact us in the future, if you run into any issues with this or any other casino and we try our best to help.


Best regards,

Michal
