Refused to pay €6500 using false accusation


18BET started their verification requirement right after my cashout of 6500. I played their welcome bonus and deposited total of 700 EUR in 2 deposits.

They asked for all sort of things including my ID and bill, picture of myself and a phone call.

It was hard to get in touch of them as they have no phone number to call and they took their time in each answer always asking for more and more requirements.

After all documents were sent and all of their requirements fulfilled they came with a new thing out of the blue in order not to pay.

They refuse to give any details or discuss the issue.

From looking at similar complaints at Gambling Grumbles I could see they simply lie and used this kind of tactic in order to avoid payment to other players.

Here is the email they sent

Dear M

Please note that the IP address in your account was already used by another 18bet user before you.

From the company's point of view, you are to be considered a multi-accounts player since the mentioned IP address is a full match and you can see this clearly stated in our terms and conditions, that this isn't allowed. A customer is forbidden to register, let alone participate in any promotions of the 18bet site if they share the same details, as another 18bet account. In other words, shall our software detect that a player has any other common footsteps as an already registered 18bet customer, bonus money and the winnings accumulated using it are to be instantly revoked from the faulty account.

Therefore all of the winnings were revoked, your account has been closed and your deposits for 700 € were returned to your Neteller account.

Please refer to our general terms and conditions, (Duplicated accounts policy, section 1): “All customer offers are limited to one per person, family, household address, E-mail address, telephone number, same payment account number (e.g. debit or credit card, Moneybookers etc.), and shared computer, e.g. school, public library or workplace. We reserve the right to withdraw the availability of any offer or all offers to any customer or group of customers.”

Note that the company's decision is final and binding and will not be a subject to any alterations.

Yours,
18bet team


I have no other account at 18bet. Since they refuse to show their proof I hope this portal can help find out what I am sure they are trying to do here

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,

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

You may refer to the "Player Registration & Deregistration Process" section in our Terms & Conditions:

The individual has to ensure that all data given at registration stage is true, complete and free from error. This therefore also means that the player has to register personally. Furthermore, a player can only have one account. Any other accounts which a player opens with Shark77 Limited, or which are beneficially owned by the player shall be considered as duplicate accounts. We shall close any duplicate account/s consequent to the identification of the main account. If we close a duplicate account, deposits will be refunded, and all bonuses, free bets and winnings acquired from such promotions using that duplicate account will be void and forfeited.If the amount in the duplicate account does not cover the amount to be refunded to us, we shall seek to recover the loss incurred directly from any other of your accounts."

In accordance to our policy your account has been closed and all remaining balance has been forfeited.

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.
