The player from the United Kingdom had alleged that his winnings were confiscated due to an accusation by the casino of duplicating accounts. He claimed he was unaware of having two accounts and only found out about it after he had won a significant amount. The casino had ceased communication with the player and had cited violation of their anti-fraud policy as the reason for denying his withdrawal request. We had attempted to resolve the issue by contacting the casino and asking for evidence. However, we learned that the player had been using his accounts solely for sports betting. As we primarily dealt with online casino complaints, we had to reject the complaint and advised the player to seek assistance from websites that handle sports betting-related issues.

Could you please advise if you are aware of having 2 accounts? Did you finish the verification process or your account got blocked during the process? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?

OK THEY WILL SAY DULICATE ACCOUNT. BUT I DIDN'T REALSIE I USED THEM BEFORE. INFACT THEY VERIFIED ME AND LET ME USE IT FOR 2 WEEKS, I ALSO DEPOSTED 12 TIMES OVER THEM 2 WEEKS, THEY SHOULD OF INFORMED ME I ALREADY HAD A ACCOUNT BEFORE, THET WAS NO MONEY IN THAT OTHER ACCOUNT,SO I WASNT USING TWO AT ONCE. IT WAS ONLY UNTILL I WON AND WANTED A WITHDRAWAL THEY THEN TOLD ME THEY WERNT GOING TO PAY DUE TO DULICATE ACCOUNT. I THINK THATS RATHER UNFAIR AS I WAS NOT CHEATING, JUST WON MONEY FAIR A SQUARE. THE MORAL THING TO DO IS JUST PAY ME MONEY OWED.
THANKS
Hello billmarston,
I was informed by the casino representative outside of the complaint thread that you were using your accounts solely for sports betting.
As you might know, our forum deals with complaints about online casinos only. I understand it must be difficult for you, but unfortunately, we don’t have enough insight to take on this kind of issue. I can continue in communication with the casino on your behalf and try to get more information, but at the same time, I’m forced to reject your complaint.
I suggest you submit your complaint to one of these two websites that deal with sports betting-related complaints – https://www.osga.com/ or https://www.sportsbookreview.com/sportsbook-complaint/.
If it’s convenient for you, we can continue our communication through e-mail. My email address is stefan.m@casino.guru.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
Kind regards,
Stefan, Casino.Guru
