Account closed with no warning

I opened my account with Gangsta Casino on 22 September, and their KYC department confirmed that my account was fully verified on 15 October with partial verification being completed on 12 October.

During my time with the casino, I deposited €650, took part in several promotions, received bonuses, and never had any issues with gameplay or communication.

The last contact I received from the casino was on 29 October, regarding some missing bonus spins. However, when I tried to log in today, I was met with a message saying “access denied.”

I contacted live chat support and spoke with Bianca, who appears to be the only support agent available for long stretches of time. During the chat, she abruptly closed the conversation, and the chat widget disappeared entirely from my browser window.

Assuming it was a technical issue, I reloaded the site in a different browser window — but Bianca simply replied, “your account has been closed forever,” and once again ended the chat immediately.

Since the casino’s chat system normally allows users to email themselves a copy of the conversation, I can only assume the chat was terminated this way to prevent me from saving the transcript.

I tried accessing the chat three more times (using a VPN to refresh the page so the widget would reappear), but each time, the chat was instantly closed again.

At this point, I have no idea why my account was closed.

I passed the full KYC verification.

The casino’s terms do not prohibit VPN use.

I’ve had no conflicts with staff and recent email communication as recently as four days ago.

Now, the casino is completely refusing to explain why my account has been closed — and is actively preventing me from obtaining a copy of our chat.

I did manage to take a screenshot showing that the chat was open and then disappeared within the same minute.

I would appreciate assistance from AskGamblers in getting a clear explanation and, if possible, the reinstatement or proper closure of my account with transparency regarding my balance and personal data.

Dear player and AskGamblers administration,
I am providing full screenshots of all correspondence with our client and all emails sent from us and received from you.
1. After completing the verification process, your account was verified and you received a notification.
2. After checking your documents again, we noticed that they were invalid and your account was blocked, which is why we sent you a corresponding email.
3. After sending this email (which you said you didn't receive), although it is clearly from us, we have not received any new supporting documents from you.
4. We are awaiting your email to [email protected] to submit valid documents that can pass our verification process in order to continue working with you.
You will also be resent the email you previously sent, which you indicated you did not receive.
Thank you for your understanding and have a nice day.

Dear Sir / Madam,

Thank you for your reply, but once again you have not addressed the core issues I have raised repeatedly throughout this complaint.

To summarise, please respond directly to the following points:

You have still not provided any verifiable proof that the alleged 29 October email was ever sent.
A screenshot is not evidence. Please provide the original .eml file or full email headers, as previously requested.

You have not explained the contradictory reasons you have given for the account closure.
Publicly you stated my account “cannot be restored” due to a document from a “prohibited country,” while your emails (including the one I actually received) simply mention an expired document and state my account can be reviewed after updated ID is provided.
These explanations are incompatible. Please clarify which one is true.

You still have not addressed why your KYC communications appear to be handled through a personal Gmail account with a Russian-language interface, rather than a corporate system appropriate for handling sensitive identification documents.
This is a legitimate data-protection concern and requires a clear explanation.

You also have not explained why live chat conversations were forcibly closed each time I attempted to ask about the account block.

I have already submitted my valid ID, as requested.
Now I ask, once again, that you address the above points directly and transparently.

Yours faithfully,
Alecto

Dear Alecto and Askgamblers administration
1)Unfortunately, as it stands, you were sent these emails, which I've included screenshots of in this discussion.
There could be several reasons why you don't have them.
1. You've run out of email space.
2. You're having trouble receiving emails from us, and it may have ended up in spam.
3. You could have simply deleted this email to indicate you don't have it. As far as we can tell, all the emails were sent to you, and you received some of them.
We can't say for sure why you didn't receive them, or whether you did receive them, as you indicate they haven't.
2) We have quite a few employees, and they work from a corporate email address, so you receive emails from [email protected]. This is our personal email address for handling cases and verifying clients of our project.
The interface language applies to employees, as long as they speak the language, and there's nothing wrong with that.
3) We will resend all the emails you didn't receive and send confirmation here that they were received. Resent.
And since you said you sent newer documents confirming your identity, our verification department will check everything and provide a response.
We'll also update you here with the new information about your account.
Sincerely, Gangsta Casino

Prolongs the payout

Hello,

I am writing to complain about Gangsta Casino and their handling of my withdrawal requests. Despite repeated promises of specific payment dates, I have not received my funds on time, causing significant uncertainty and frustration.

Below is a summary of the timeline:

1. Promised Payment Dates: In an email dated 26 January, the casino informed me that my upcoming payouts were "tentatively planned" for 30 January and 6 February. (See attached correspondence, page 1).

2. Repeated Delays: The scheduled payout for 6 February has NOT been processed. Instead, I received an email on 3 February only confirming a withdrawal from 2 February, with no information about my other pending withdrawals.

3. Unclear Communication and Confusion: I have several pending withdrawals that were made on the same day, but the casino is processing them several days apart without a reasonable explanation. When I inquired about this, I only received a generic response that they would "prioritise" my withdrawals, without concrete dates or guarantees.

4. Wasted Time and Unreliable Methods: I have previously had to cancel card withdrawals due to long delays and tried bank transfers instead hoping it would be faster. However, the casino does not provide clear answers on which method is fastest or realistic timeframes.

My request to Gangsta Casino has always been simple: I want them to respect their own indicated timeframes, communicate clearly and honestly about any delays, and process all my pending withdrawals immediately.

Their inability to keep their promises and their vague communication makes me question their reliability entirely.

I am attaching the relevant email correspondence that supports my case. I hope Ask Gamblers can help me resolve this situation and that my experience can warn other players.

Sincerely,
