Delayed payment & Closed Account


7 years ago
Hi!

I deposited to 18Bet casino 12.04.2019 and played slots. I won 7046$ and requested a withdraw. Processing took awhile but they finally responded and requested some documents to verify my account. I sended the documents and waited almost a month for the winnings. After 3 weeks i went an reached them again and asked why I haven't gotten the winnings they responded and asked more documents, where i need to take selfies with my ID. I was sure i am getting played but still i sended the selfies and after that i waited even more. Now when i try to reach them they dont respond and i tried to log in the 18Bet website it says my account is closed. So now its clear that they are not willing to give my winnings and I dont know what to do. Can you help me please!

Account closed and no explanation so far why €4,900 balance is still not paid

02 December 2019 when i tried to log into my 18bet account that has around 4800-4900 euro balance but i couldn't and saw message that the account is closed. And to this day I still can’t log into my account. As i was not asking for account closure i assume it was closed by casino management. Last time i successfully signed into my account was 15 October 2019. There was no correspondence about account closure on my e-mail, and no funds were paid to my neteller account or my card. But casino stopped sending promo e-mails from 2 november, so thats probably a time of account closure. I sent e-mail to support and received no answer by this time. Chat support tells nothing.

Account opened on 18.06.2018, account was verified long ago, i played mostly on casino section. Balance was there because when i previously tried to withdraw 15 october and 24 july casino asked for fresh utility bill and i had none available at that moment. Last deposit to 18bet was made 05 april 2019 and last time i received a withdrawal from them was 21 july 2019 for 4000 euro (to my neteller account), around 4800-4900 left on account.


As casino support is unresponsive and i can not get explanations why the account was closed i need help from third parties in resolving this. I'd like to reinstall account and get my funds paid.

18bet closed account and forfeited money with fake reason
I made 200e deposit to 18bet last Friday (3.5). I first got bonus after deposit, but I forfeited it before started playing, so I had 200e real money and no bonus on my account. Then I played blackjack and got 750e winnings and decided to withdraw them.

Withdraw was pending-status 5 days, and now I got e-mail that my account has been closed and remaining funds have been forfeited. The message I got was this:

"Dear xxxx,

I have usually used my own home internet or mobile internet when I have playing in 18bet. Sometimes it is possible that I have been logged to my account when using workplace internet. I am sure that no other player have used my home or mobile ip and if have been logged workplace internet I don't know if someone else would have opened account in there.

However I have just one account and I don't know any other account opened with same main IP I use. My document verification was very slow process in 18bet and I have sent many documents, but got finally my documents approved. Then I have got withdrawals few times after slow prosess. Now I have made 200e deposit, got fair winnings without bonus and made withdraw and they just decide to take them.

I am sure I haven't used any dublicate accounts or broken rules ( I haven't any desire to break rules), so I want get my winnings I have deserved. After that it is up to 18bet if they want keep my account open.

Closed my account, won't paying my €3,900 withdrawal

I have decided to withdrawal all my balance - 3900€, because they started to reject almost all my bets.

First I was asked for:

1. A photograph of the front and back of my ID

2. I do not have utility bill with my name as I am living in house that belongs to my parents so they are paying utility bills, but I am sending you scan of car registration document from December as it is most recent document I could find with my name on it.

3. A screenshot of your Neteller account, with the page URL and your personal details (name, address, phone, etc.) clearly visible

4. A valid phone number you can be reached at:

Which I have provided. Then they asked for:

1. A screenshot of your Neteller account, with the page URL and your personal details (name, address, phone, etc.) with the drop down menu clearly visible (head icon)

And after that they asked for:

1. A self-certified photo of you (selfie), holding your ID document.

I have also provided them with selfie.

Next day I got this email:

Dear Lubomir,

We are reaching you to inform you that our Anti-Fraud Department detected that your IP address is already in use by another account.

In accordance to our policy your account has been closed and the total of your deposits, minus fees for administrative costs, have been returned to your Neteller account.

I have never had or used any other account with 18bet.com .

For me it seems like they are trying to avoid paying my winnings.

I am using DSL internet connection with dynamic IP (which means that everytime I connect to internet my ISP will assign me one IP from pool of IPs he has), so I am not sure if this could be problem. Therefore IP can not be even used as proof that I have used or made any other. account at 18bet.com . They did not provided me with any proof, but they only claimed that I my IP address is already used by another account, but I have never ever made any other account at 18bet.com ... so it seems like they are trying to avoid pay me winnings.
