Hello,
I would like to submit a formal complaint regarding my Melbet Côte d’Ivoire account, operated locally by COASTWIN SARLU.
Since 7 October 2026, I have been unable to withdraw funds from my Melbet account.
At the beginning of the issue, the main Mobile Money withdrawal methods available in Côte d’Ivoire, including MTN Money, Orange Money, Moov Money and Wave, were still visible in the application but were greyed out. When I tried to use them, the platform displayed a message stating that the payment methods were temporarily unavailable for technical reasons.
I immediately contacted Melbet customer support. Their representatives confirmed several times, both in writing and during a telephone call, that this was a general technical issue affecting payment/transfer operators and that their technical team was working to resolve it.
I also received an email from Melbet customer support confirming that mobile payment methods were temporarily unavailable for technical reasons and asking me to try again later.
The situation has since become worse. When I now open the “Withdraw funds” section, no withdrawal method is displayed at all. Instead, the platform shows the message:
“No system available.”
This means that I currently have no way to submit a withdrawal request.
Before this incident, Melbet Côte d’Ivoire displayed several withdrawal options, including Orange Money, Wave, MTN Money, Moov Money, and other payment methods. The platform also normally displays estimated processing times for these methods.
I have already sent a formal follow-up email to Melbet asking them to provide: an estimated timeframe for restoring withdrawal services; the reference number of the technical incident; an alternative withdrawal method; and written confirmation that the funds in my account remain fully available for withdrawal.
So far, I have not been provided with a working withdrawal solution.
I would also like to clarify that Melbet has not informed me of any KYC issue, security investigation, violation of their Terms and Conditions, suspicious activity, account restriction, or personal limitation affecting my account. Their official explanation has consistently been that this is a general technical problem involving payment providers.
Melbet’s own Terms and Conditions also state that withdrawal requests are processed 24 hours a day and that, where withdrawal through payment systems is refused or unavailable, Melbet may propose a bank transfer as an alternative.
I therefore respectfully request AskGamblers’ assistance in asking Melbet to: restore at least one functional withdrawal method on my account; alternatively, provide a working withdrawal method such as a bank transfer; confirm that my entire available balance remains withdrawable; provide a clear timeframe for resolving the technical issue.
I am attaching supporting evidence, including screenshots showing the Mobile Money methods greyed out, the current “No system available” message, emails and chat messages from Melbet confirming the technical problem, and screenshots showing the payment methods normally available on the Melbet Côte d’Ivoire platform.
My Melbet account ID: 1129526857
Country: Côte d’Ivoire
Amount I am currently trying to withdraw: 319,338 XOF (FCFA)
Preferred withdrawal methods: Orange Money, Wave, or MTN Money
I would appreciate AskGamblers’ assistance in helping me obtain access to my funds and a functional withdrawal method.
Thank you for your assistance.
Kind regards,
