They are allowing UK players to sign in and then blocks them later


3 years ago

I registered and made my first deposit with www.cbet.gg on the 14th July 2022. My account was verified under KYC by the 18th July. Everything was going smoothly. I even chatted with the support on live chat on 18th July about my pending withdrawal at the time and no issues or flags were raised. I kept on depositing with no issue and even got given a bonus on my account. 

Then on the 27th July I suddenly had issues with depositing via paydo.com which was my normal method of payment. I contacted chat and they asked if I lived in the UK and I said yes. I had never hidden the fact as it was all on my KYC details and I started it when I registered on the site. The adviser just closed my account and didn't help any further than that. Every since they just repeat I can't play which is fine but don't tell me when I will hear back from the complaint email I sent on the 27th July. I was told 48hours but it's now the 1st Aug and I don't believe they will reply. 

I have asked then as I wasn't really allowed to register why do they allow UK players to register and deposit and have asked for my money back minus any withdraws as I don't wish to claim any more than I am due. 

I have attached screenshots of what I have from live chat, the email I received for the bonus, the email I sent for the complaint and screenshots showing the site doesn't block UK IP addresses and even allows you to state on the registration that you are in the UK. 

I have not hidden anything and I would approve your help with getting my money back as they have blocked me on live chat and ignored my emails

askgamblers I get told yesterday that my account shows a refund is being processed and that it was created on Friday last week and that I would get an email relating to it. I was told it was showing as a admin cash withdrawal. Today I asked for an update and got told there was no refund. I have been trying to get another update this evening but all the advisers read the screenshot from yesterday and ask for me details and then just block the chat. I have not been rude as that gets you nowhere. I have attached proof again

askbamblers current update. I have tried emailing, live chat and private message on their Instagram and still no refund or response. I would recommend blacklisting this company as they are still allowing UK residents to register

Withdrawal rejected twice with no reasonable explanation

I made a withdrawal request on the 29th of December 2025, which was rejected, with Cbet and its cs reps (upon contacting them) telling me the node provider was overloaded, and to wait patiently for 72 hours to expire, after which I’ll be able to make a withdrawal successfully.

The 72 hours expired on Jan 2, 11:50 pm WAT, and I made another request only for it to be rejected again 2 hours later.

I contacted their customer service this morning, and she (her name is Valentine) told me to swap my TRX for another crypto and then try the withdrawal again. She said she was confident it would work.

I did exactly as told and tried withdrawing again, only to receive an error that my action was blocked and to contact support for more details.

Valentine was still on the chat, and when I informed her about the new issue, she told me to try it again on a different browser and a different device. I did all that to no avail.

Then she says she has created a ticket to the relevant department, and it would take another 72 hours for analysis, but even worse, it might take longer.

I also noticed all their games and markets are no longer available, as though they’re shutting down their second website Cbet.gg, and moving entirely to Cgg.bet.br. I asked about this, and the cs rep told me it was just maintenance, but in his own words, when this maintenance would be over, they didn’t know.

I implore AskGamblers to assist in retrieving my balance from Cbet.gg as soon as possible.

Thank you for your help in advance.

SCAM CASINO BETTING WEBSITE CBET cbet.gg is STEALING PLAYER FUNDS - $2,200 which is R38,000 Withheld From South African Player cbet username Sibonelo21

I am writing this detailed public complaint to expose the predatory and fraudulent practices of the online gambling site CBET cbet.gg. My case is not an isolated glitch; it is a deliberate and calculated scam known as grefunding—where an operator accepts your deposits, allows you to build a balance, and then invents a security pretext to permanently block your account and confiscate all funds.(proof on attached screenshots)

What Happened The Grefunding Script

1. Easy Deposits, No Problems: I deposited my own money without issue, betting mostly on sports. Over time, I managed to build my balance through winnings to R38,000 South African Rand approximately 2,200 USD. This money was not just for play; I had immediate plans to use it to settle pressing personal debts that have been a significant burden.(proof in screenshots attached)
2. The Withdrawal Trigger: The moment I attempted to access my winnings, the problems began. My account was suddenly and permanently blocked without warning or explanation.(proof in screenshots attached)
3. The Complete Shutdown: I was locked out completely—unable to log in, withdraw, or even speak to live support from my account. Their live chat is the only form of contact, as they NEVER respond to emails, even after explicitly promising to do so.
4. The Standard Lie: When I finally contacted support from a new device, I was given the canned, fraudulent response: For security reasons, your account has been permanently blocked... our security team will send you a detailed explanation via email. This email, of course, never exists. It is a stall tactic designed to frustrate victims into giving up.(proof in screenshots attached(conversation with Lucia))

This is a Global Business Model Built on Exploitation:
CBET,and many offshore casinos like it, operate on a simple formula:

· Global Reach, Zero Accountability: They happily accept players from around the world—Europe, North America, Africa—because they are licensed in jurisdictions like Curaçao with weak consumer protection.
· Preying on the Vulnerable: However, they are particularly predatory towards players in regions like Africa, South America, and parts of Asia. They exploit the fact that we have fewer reputable gambling commissions or legal avenues to fight back, betting that the cost and complexity will silence us. They rely on victims not knowing what grefunding is or how to expose it.
· The Universal Risk: Do not be fooled if you are from a first-world country. This is their standard procedure for any player who wins a substantial amount. Your location does not protect you from this scam; it only changes how hard you can fight back.

My Demand and The Purpose of This Post:
CBET is holding R38,000 of my money hostage.This is not bonus abuse or a security measure—it is theft.

· To CBET: Your actions are documented and publicly exposed. The evidence of your grefunding scam is now permanently attached to your brand name across multiple platforms.
· To All Players: DO NOT DEPOSIT HERE. If they did this to me, they will do it to you. Search for CBET scam or CBET withdrawal problems and you will find this and other stories.
· A Direct Offer to CBET: This complaint and all associated posts will remain active and be updated across every platform for as long as my money is withheld. If you reverse this fraudulent confiscation and allow me to withdraw my R38,000, I will promptly return to these threads, update them to reflect a resolved outcome, and acknowledge the settlement. As long as you are reading this, it means you have chosen theft over integrity.
