Complaint #284 Cloudbet Casino

Betting integrity investigation 6 months

By Jose O.

3 weeks ago

I am filing this complaint against Cloudbet because they have unfairly restricted my account and withheld my balance of approximately $300 USD since April 10th.

On that date, they informed me my account was under a "betting integrity review" and stated that in exceptional cases, it could take up to 6 months. While I understand that casinos need to conduct standard security checks, keeping a player's legitimately deposited funds locked for a third of a year with absolutely zero transparency is an abusive practice.

I am a regular sports bettor, focusing on standard markets, and I have done absolutely nothing to violate their terms of service.

I have tried reaching out to their customer support multiple times to get a real update on my case. However, their first-line support completely ignores my emails. I only receive copy-pasted, automated script replies (most recently from an agent named Evelin) merely repeating the "6-month" excuse without providing any proof, details, or actual assistance. They even ignored my notification that I am escalating this to their regulatory body (Curaçao Gaming Authority).

I am requesting AskGamblers' intervention to force a higher-level management representative at Cloudbet to actually look into my account (Username: gtleague2026), conclude this endless "investigation," and release my funds immediately.

Thank you for your assistance.

Dear AskGamblers Team and Cloudbet Representative,

I would like to provide a final update on this matter.

I am happy to report that I was finally able to access and withdraw all my funds across all my accounts, and the money has successfully reached my crypto wallet. Cloudbet has kept my main account active and permanently closed the secondary accounts, which I understand and accept.

This issue is now 100% resolved. I want to thank the AskGamblers team for providing this excellent platform and helping players get a fair resolution, and also thank the Cloudbet team for finally sorting this out.

You can now close this complaint as Successfully Resolved.

Best regards,

Dear AskGamblers Team and Cloudbet Representative,
Cloudbet informed me via email that I could withdraw my original deposits. However, this is currently impossible due to technical restrictions placed on my accounts by the casino itself. Here is the current status of my accounts:
First account: I was able to request a withdrawal, but it has been over 30 hours and the transaction is still pending/has not been processed.
Second account: I can log in, but the system is blocked and does not allow me to input a withdrawal amount.
Third account: I am completely blocked from logging in.
It is unfair to tell me I can withdraw my deposits while keeping the system restricted. I request that Cloudbet's finance team manually process the total refund of my deposits directly to my personal crypto wallet address to finally resolve this issue.
Please keep this complaint OPEN.

Cloudbet Welcome Package sports turnover excluded from Cash Vault without clear term

Cloudbet Welcome Package – Sports Turnover Excluded From Cash Vault Without Clear Term

I am submitting a complaint regarding Cloudbet’s 30-day Welcome Package and Cash Vault promotion.

During the promotion period I wagered approximately USD 11,300 in total, including approximately USD 9,500 on sports betting and approximately USD 1,700 on casino.

Cloudbet presents the Welcome Package as covering both casino and sports, and describes the Cash Vault as the biggest single reward in the Welcome Package, unlocked after 30 days.

Cloudbet support initially informed me that the Cash Vault was calculated from my total activity, including casino and sports.

A human support representative later repeatedly stated that none of my sports turnover contributes to the Cash Vault.

I repeatedly asked Cloudbet to provide the exact clause in the promotion terms that applied when I joined the promotion and which expressly states that sports turnover does not contribute to the Cash Vault.

Despite several direct requests, Cloudbet did not provide such a clause and instead instructed me to submit a formal complaint.

Cloudbet’s own Terms refer to the Welcome Package being earned through bets made in “sports or casino” and contain a specific rule concerning settled sports bets contributing toward Rakeback.

I believe that if approximately USD 9,500 of my sports wagering was completely excluded from the Cash Vault calculation, this was a material restriction that should have been clearly disclosed before I deposited and continued wagering.

I have already filed a formal complaint directly with Cloudbet, reference #32775361.

My primary claim is reimbursement of all deposits made during the affected Welcome Package period:

2,226.828459 USDC + 1.163965 ETH, estimated at approximately USD 4,450.

If full restitution is refused, I alternatively request reimbursement of my full net gambling loss during the promotion period. Cloudbet’s own statistics currently show a sportsbook P&L of approximately -USD 922, excluding any casino loss.

I am asking AskGamblers to review whether Cloudbet can identify the exact term supporting its position and whether the alleged exclusion of sports turnover from the Cash Vault was clearly disclosed before participation.

I can provide the official exported Cloudbet support chat, account statistics, screenshots, and a screen recording of the promotion page.

Temporary account restriction

To whom it may concern!

On 19th of June 2026, I created an account in Cloudbet Casino in order to bet on the World Cup Football Tournament.

Unfortunately, I had no idea back then that my experience with Cloudbet was going to be such an unpleasant ride. Had I known that, I would for sure have avoided to create an account, and I advise whoever is reading my complaint now to avoid using the services of Cloudbet Casino, as they operate as a scam company.

Back to my complaint now. On 22nd of June 2026, I got an email from the Operator that I am all set and my account is verified.

I deposited 1146.70 USDT on the same day (22nd of June 2026). I started betting on the football games of the WC 2026, winning quite a few slips. My balance went above 2500 USDT, and on 10th of July 2026 I decided to make my first withdrawal (Withdrawal ID: 1132966).

I confirmed the withdrawal via email and was waiting for the funds to arrive in my wallet. Not only did I never receive the funds, but when I tried to log in to check my withdrawal status, I got the message that my account is locked and that I no longer have access to it. I immediately sent an email to the support of the Operator, and I got the typical reply (as I noticed that many other complaining users got here):

"We wanted to let you know that your account is currently temporarily restricted while we carry out a standard betting integrity review. These reviews are an important part of keeping our platform fair and secure for all customers."

2 weeks now, I keep getting the same responses to all my emails that they need time and that the investigation is a lengthy process. What kind of investigation is this? Why do they allow the authorities to keep doing this to most of their customers? i was betting on World Cup football games, the most mainstream competition in the world, and they confiscated all my funds, even my deposits.

After a quick research in internet, I found your website and noticed that many others have the same issue as me and decided to ask for your help in order to retrieve my funds from this Operator that acts as a scammer in the market.

I have attached the relevant documentation of the withdrawal and the deposit, as well as the email I received from the Operator.

I rely on you, AskGamblers, to retrieve the money that was stolen from me.

Thank you in advance!

Closing an account without explanation

Hello Askgamblers.

Please help me solve the problem that has arisen with the Cloudbet casino.

On June 29, my account was blocked for unknown reasons. They told me in the chat that they didn't have any information about blocking, and I needed to contact them by email. I wrote a letter, but no one answered me in 24 hours. I contacted the chat again, providing my email address, but they told me that there was no such address registered in their system!!! (see screenshots of the correspondence). After I provided screenshots of making deposits at this casino, they found my email and apologized. I was told that my letter had been sent to the security service, and it would be reviewed as a matter of priority. I wrote another letter just in case. Another day has passed, but there is no answer.

It was only on the 9th day that I received an email telling me about closing my account, but it did not specify the reason.

I have been playing at this casino for about three years, and there have never been any problems, so I consider it one of the betting leaders. I made bets very rarely, 1-2 times a month, and I lost more often than I won. Therefore, the reason for the blocking is doubly unclear to me.

Therefore, I ask you to help unblock my account at this casino.

Bet settled as loss instead of void No Contest fight

My bet (ID: 8503ca12-d515-4bba-92bc-072645dbf56e) on Alex Perez vs Sumudaerji at UFC Fight Night: Song vs. Figueiredo May 30, 2026 was incorrectly settled as a loss. The fight was declared No Contest due to an illegal groin strike. All other bookmakers processed full refunds on this event. Cloudbet agent Bernardo initially re-settled the bet correctly as void, but it was reversed the next day without any explanation. Agent Eva then defended the reversal but stopped responding 3 days ago. I am requesting a full refund of $100. By Eva’s logic, an Inside Distance bet would win while a Full Fight bet loses on the same No Contest outcome. This is logically and contractually impossible — No Contest means no result for any market, and all bets must be voided

Cloudbet Account restricted for review with no meaningful update

My Cloudbet account was placed under a review and has remained restricted for more than two months.

While I understand that security reviews may be necessary, a review period of up to six months is unreasonable and unacceptable for a customer who has fully cooperated and received no meaningful information regarding the status of the investigation.

During this time, I have repeatedly contacted support and have only received generic responses stating that there is no update available and that the investigation may take up to six months.

Cloudbet has not provided:
• A specific reason for the restriction.
• Any meaningful progress updates.
• A realistic timeframe for resolution.
• Clear confirmation regarding when I will regain access to my account and funds.

I believe that keeping a customer’s account restricted for such an extended period without providing adequate information is unfair and unacceptable.

I respectfully request that Cloudbet:
1. Provide a detailed update on the status of the investigation.
2. Confirm that my funds are secure.
3. Provide a clear and realistic timeline for resolution.
4. Complete the review and restore access to my account without further unnecessary delay.

I am attaching email correspondence showing that my requests for updates have only been met with generic responses and no substantive information.

Thank you.

Account restriction for over a month

Dear AskGamblers,

I was an active user of Cloudbet since summer 2025 (July if I am not mistaken or around that time period) and after approximately 9 months on 11th of April 2026 I have received an email from the Operator stating that my account is currently temporarily restricted for a standard betting integrity review that can take up to 6 months.

All these months I have been using Cloudbet with absolutely no issues or interferences and I had been depositing and withdrawing in USDT from my crypto wallet address and placing sports bet solely on basketball events from all over the world in markets offered by the Operator (Cloudbet).

I would like to ask your help to understand what exactly is being investigating and why this happened suddenly after some winning slips as well as how its possibly that this might take up to 6 months!

I had in my account approximately 2500 EUR or even more (did not manage to check final balance after some winning bets since I was locked out).

Moreover let me note here and clarify that I had a fully operational and verified account for many months as mentioned above and I have never operated any duplicated account or a second account or third account. I always had one and only account on my personal name and was logging in to my account always from my personal mobile phone device.

There is now over a month that I didn’t get any response from Cloudbet casino team!

Looking forward to your prompt reply and resolution of my complaint!

Account under review up to 6 months

I was using Cloudbet normally, I even did 2-3 withdrawal requests, which were approved, everything was functioning normally as it should. Nonetheless on the 27th of match 2026 (27/03/2026) I couldn’t log into my account due to invalid password, which was the message. A bit later I received an email from Cloudbet telling me that my account is currently temporarily restricted for betting integrity review which could take up to 6 months. After repetitive communication, I have not received an official update regarding the state of my account/ remaining funds. In my opinion, 6 months of waiting with no updates, just the same repeating message:” your account is under investigation and could take up to 6 months” is absurd and I would like this issue to be solved as soon as possible. My account has a range of balance ~ 550-700. I don't remember the exact amount. Thank you in advance for your time and your help.
