I joined Trino Casino in April 2024 from my Irish home address and all subsequent activity at the casino was from my Irish residence.
However, when I came to withdraw, they emailed me on June 2024 effectively saying they had confiscated my balance of around €7000 euros and closed my account because I also have a residence in England - a prohibited country.
So although I played/withdrew etc in Ireland, the fact that I also own a second home in UK means I lose everything at the casino.
This doesn't seem fair to me.
(Looing back through the emails, it does not appear that KYC was asked for.)

Dear dsp99RF,
Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to make sure I understand your situation completely.
Could you please specify what country you chose in the registration form when you signed up for the casino?
Have you used any VPN or IP-masking software to access the casino website and change your true location?
Have you ever logged into your casino account from the United Kingdom?
Do I understand correctly that you never sent any identity documents to the casino for verification?
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
