Complaint #46 Black Diamond Casino

Cancelled my $3000 winnings from Live Roulette

Message on forum

So after playing Black Diamond Casino for quite some time (and losing quite a bit), I managed to make a decent amount and put in for a $3,000 withdrawal.

I had already encountered their usual push-back BS but this time they mysteriously cancelled my withdrawal and zeroed out the $3000. Once I finally got accounting to respond, they told my I had been using algorithms.

What I had been using was nothing more than an extended, slightly modified version of the Martingale betting method....i.e. progressively larger bets as I lost until I won. On live Roulette, when my bet grew to be larger than the current table limit, I simply changed tables to a higher limit. Now mind you I got cleaned out on several occasions and they had no issue keeping my money.

As for what I was betting on, I was simply alternating my bet between dozens and columns, picking the one that hadn't hit in the longest number of spins.

How this could be considered cheating or against the rules is beyond me.

Hello,

Thank you for getting in touch with us and for your patience while we investigated this case.

Please note that we have looked into it and found that the member's winnings have been unfortunately voided due to the fact that he violated one of the rules from our Terms and Conditions:

2.2.3. Funds deposited must be utilized for the placing of bets/stakes in the Games and, in the interests of fair play on our sites it is prohibited to utilize any recognized betting techniques/ patterns. Any suspicious activity or betting irregularities on a User’s Account may lead BlackDiamondCasino to report the respective User to the Competent Authority, freeze the funds or even close the Account.

As explained by the member as well, he has been using a betting pattern that gives the user an unfair mathematical advantage and that is not accepted on the website. The customer has also been contacted via phone call and explained the situation, as well as the fact that we do not allow such betting strategies according to our Terms and Conditions.

Thank you for taking this into consideration and know that we are at your full disposal should you need any further information regarding this case.

Account blocked withdraw money not given

I have made a account in Black diamond casino and deposited also but they blocked my account. I had $113 in account, when I tried to withdraw that money they take 7 days for verification and cancel that withdrawal for any reason, and ask for more documents they won't say at once what documents are needed.

They did this like for more than one month and at last they blocked my account and when I mailed them they said my account is inconsistent so they disabled they are saying. They just scammed me, and took my $113. I have deposited 10$ for withdrawal that also they took, and took my all documents also. Please try to get my money back.

Withdrawal constantly getting declined

This is the 7th week of having the withdrawal declined and each time it is for a different reason, and each time I do a withdrawal, I have to make a deposit. Each time I have a made a withdrawal application, I ask them why and they come back with a reason, so I do the withdrawal again and do what they ask, and it gets declined again for another reason. I am not getting anywhere, this is the last 2 email correspondence I have had with them, and I have been patient, but I am not getting anywhere. I have attached the last two email with their accounting department regarding the last 2 withdrawals. I have done another withdrawal, but feel that it will get rejected as they will try to find another reason.

Account closed and winnings were voided for no reason

My black diamond account was closed today. They claim that the reason was because of the following:

2.5.6. Casino reserves the right to withhold or otherwise decline or reverse any pay-out or winning amount or to amend any policy in the event that there is reasonable suspicion that a User is abusing or attempting to abuse any of the following: (i) bonuses; (ii) other promotions; or (iii) specific policies or rules determined in respect of an existing Game or a new Game. Casino retains the right to determine absolutely that such an abuse has taken place; also, if Your activity in Our Online Casino, by itself, is not abusive, but Your activities in other online casinos in addition to our Online Casino, taken as a whole, constitutes abuse of Our bonuses, promotions, policies or rules.

I dont agree with this ! i followed all the rules as per the site. They are now saying that all my winnings have been voided. A total of R71000. I dont understand why this has been done. No terms and conditions were broken . Nothing illegal has been done. They refuse to payout my winnings. It seems as though as soon as i requested a payout they decide to close my account and void my winnings. What can i do? Please assist urgently.

Playing dodgy on 4,000 AUD withdrawal

Ok so this is going to be a long post but it will be fair.
I made the mistake of not reading ask gamblers forum on black diamond casino. I lost around $10,000 AUD. Finally had a small win $4000 AUD. Asked to withdraw I was told no problem. 5 days later the money is back in my account. I ask why, they say I need to email accounting. I did then I withdrew again. 5 days later the money is back in my gaming account. Again I ask why told now to send a voucher. So I did that. Got an email 13/09/19 saying congratulations your withdrawal is approved. Should be here by 24/09/19. The problem is today I received an email from them 19/09/19 stating that they have decided to end their business relationship with me which is fine and dandy but I emailed and asked if my withdrawal would still be done, I had the same email as above. So I’m owed $4000 AUD and I don’t think that I’m going to get it. Thank you ask gamblers for your help

Paid me US$100 instead of US$779

Dear Black Diamond Casino Accounting Dept,

I believe there’s some kind of a misunderstanding in my withdrawal request.

You’ve only paid me US$100 instead of US$779.

Here’s my clarification.

I won the US$100 from the sign-up Free Spins. At that point, I fully understood that was how much I was suppose to get.

After that, I made 3 bitcoin deposits (US$10.16, US$42.43, US$25.95) WITHOUT taking any bonus at all because I fully understood bonuses are subject to wagering requirements.

I played some more, and my balance reached $779, and then I decided to request for a withdrawal.

I hope you understand my position. Please allow me claim the rest of my winnings.

A favorable reply would be much appreciated.

Thank you and best regards,

No payment received

When I signed up I noticed that I couldn't upload my verification documents. Kept asking through live chat what was going on as I didn't want any issues for future withdrawals. Was advised to email different email addresses with them to only bounce back saying invalid email address. They kept telling me everything was ok yet when I made my first withdrawal it wasn't processed due to invalid verification on my account. I then reused that withdrawal amount, played on and won a little more. So I went to withdraw that amount on the 27th of July. Didn't receive any money kept asking in live chat what was going on, kept being told something different every time. Was told to email [email protected] and was asked to send a verification form with all requested identification. Did that and still nothing. Kept following up with email after email only to receive a phone call on the 22nd August saying there were issues with their wire transfers and that I needed to put in my MasterCard details for withdrawal. I thought this was strange as the option to withdraw to MasterCard was never there. The guy actually made one within 5 minutes and I put in my details. Seemed all too suss for me but I did it anyway because I wanted my money. That payment was then reverted to a wire transfer (without my knowledge) due to my bank rejecting it, this was told to me via email. This is a lie because I contacted my bank and they said it is illegal to block any incoming payments. I then emailed back and apparently the whole reason it was rejected was due to invalid verification on my account!!! But it's all sorted they say.. so I take their excuses, give them the benefit of the doubt only to be told again and again that I will get my money by the end of next week or within 7 working days or the latest...

"Hello!

Hope this mail finds you well,

Please note that your payment was re issued on September 4th and you will receive it in within 5 business days.

We apologize for the inconvenience, best regards"

This is the runaround I get and I have many screenshots and emails to show all this communication as well.

Please help... I just want my money!
