RESOLVED

Case summary

10 months ago

The player from Norway had encountered an issue with the casino, where his account had been disabled after he had wagered a bonus and won about $1900. The casino had vaguely cited a term breach as the reason, but the player had denied any wrongdoing. We intervened, reaching out to the casino and reviewing their evidence, which we had found insufficient to justify the confiscation of the player's winnings. Despite our efforts, the casino had only returned the player's initial deposit and requested additional verification. The complaint had been closed as unresolved due to the lack of proper evidence from the casino. We advised the player to contact the Curacao Gaming Authority for further assistance. Later, the complaint was reopened as the casino stated that the player's funds had been added back to their account. After the player had confirmed this and successfully withdrawn his winnings, the complaint was marked as resolved.

On the 3rd of October i registred an account and deposited and took the first deposit welcome bonus. After wagering the whole bonus i had about $1900 but it was in LTC so it will be a bigger amount than 1900 now.

I made a withdraw and the next day when i try to log in to my account it says my account is disabled/blocked.

I asked live support why and the told me to send an email to their email support. This was on the 4th of October.

On the 5th i get an answer saying they just check my account and will get back to me soon.

On the 12th they send me an email saying i have breached their terms and then they referred to 3 different terms and saying these are the reasons without saying what i did.

I answered that i havnt breached any of these terms and after that they havnt answered.

I only have 1 email conversation with them but i can forward it if you want it.

Dear Wild.io Casino team,

Thank you for your email. We reviewed the evidence, however, I'm afraid we can't accept your decision to confiscate the player's winnings based on that. I replied to your email with a short explanation. You can block vingrom2023 from further play should you wish to do so but they should get paid their winnings.

Dear Wild.io Casino team,

Thank you for your email. As mentioned above and in my email, we don't find switching from high-volatility to low-volatility games to be an unfair practice. We are convinced that players should be able to play in whatever way they wish, as long as they follow other bonus rules, such as maximum bet. Additionally, this rule is meant to deter bonus hunters, but it actually influences recreational players the most. These are the ones who are worried that they might lose their winnings, so they often decrease their bets after a win. True bonus hunters do not mind an increased variance. They focus mostly on their expected value, which is not affected by this betting pattern. Instead of rules like these, casinos should focus on setting the wagering requirements, maximum bet, game contribution and other bonus rules in a way that makes it more difficult or even impossible for players to abuse their bonuses. I'm afraid, the player will have to get paid for the complaint to be resolved. You can, of course, restrict the player from further play after they receive their funds.

Dear Wild.io Casino team,

I'm afraid the player will have to get paid in full for the complaint to be resolved for the reasons stated above. Their account can be blocked from further play after they receive their funds.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Peter,


Before reaching a final resolution on this case, we find it necessary to conduct an identity verification for the user. Unfortunately, this verification was not feasible at the time when the account was initially flagged.


An email has been dispatched to the user's registered email address outlining the verification process, and we are currently awaiting their response.


@vingrom2023 Your understanding and patience in this matter are greatly appreciated. We will keep you updated on the progress and appreciate your cooperation.


Kind regards,

The Wild.io Team

HI all,

Thank you for your replies.


Dear Wild.io Casino team,

I'm setting the timer to seven more days so that you can finish the verification process. You keep repeating that you sent us evidence regarding all open complaints, however, the evidence didn't arrive or was insufficient. We can't reject all the complaints based on the proof you sent. What we need is a proper explanation of what happened supported by evidence. Please describe the abuse, the betting patterns, the unfair advantage that the players gained using the strategy, and what connection is among the players. Please also note that we need evidence for all the complaints. I will set the timer to seven more days and after that, without proper evidence, I'm afraid, the complaints will become unresolved. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi vingrom2023,

Thanks for the update. Yes, the verification was the first step. The next step will be either to pay you your winnings or provide evidence to support its claims.

Dear Wild.io Casino team,

We are unable to make progress on this issue, so we must close the complaint as unresolved due to lack of evidence. The described player's behavior may carry signs of bonus hunting, however, no rules were violated. All players involved simply used the welcome bonus and played with it ignoring other bonuses. I don’t see any problem here, as players are not obliged to use all the bonuses offered to them. They played with the bonus, never placed bets higher than the maximum allowed, and stopped betting once the wagering requirements were met. Unfortunately, we do not see any unfair advantage here. If you do not want players to do this, what is the point of offering welcome bonuses at all?

 

Dear vingrom2023,

I’m afraid I won't be able to change the casino's decision. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to reconsider, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Curacao Gaming Authority (https://casino.guru/licensing-authorities/curacao-license) and submit a complaint to them. The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players. I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
