Unjustified account closure right after a big slot winning
I have seen an advertisement on tv about monte carlo casini and decided to open an account. I deposut £200 and received bonus of £200. After opening the account i upload my credit card , passport and proof of address as i have been playing on many casinos and fully aware of the verification. During my plays my balance went over £2000 all with stakes around £8 and below.. And few times i made a stake of £10 and won £2950 on gonzo quest. The same day they publish my name on their home page as big winner. I was over the moon to have such a good win. But the next day when i requested withdrawal they sent me an email about closure of my account.
The email reads :

Although i have accounts on many casino sites , they refer me as fraud user , even i sent them all documents required. The reason they close my account according to live chat conversation was due to staking £10 which there was no warning what so ever during the game play , and i was fully unaware of that fact.
They not only kept my big win but also kept my previous winnings and name me as fraudster due to fact that i had a big win.
Although i ask them to remove my name from their home screen , they still displaying as big win on gonzo which they refuse to pay.
I had previous wins on different sites and never had such an issue. I recommend all punters to avoid this casino as they try to find any excuse to close your account and avoid paying out.
Their customer service is not helpful at all , and all they say is sorry for the inconvenience.
