Casino Complaints

Casino closed my account and withheld winnings without explanation


3 weeks ago
I am filing a complaint against Lucky Gem Casino for permanently closing my account and withholding €3,165 in winnings from the fourth and final welcome bonus.

After winning this amount, I was asked to complete verification. I completed facial verification and submitted the requested documents, but my proof of address was rejected. When I tried to submit an alternative document, I discovered that my account had been blocked.

Live chat informed me that the casino's senior team had permanently closed my account for an alleged breach of the Terms and Conditions. However, they refused to specify which terms I had supposedly violated or provide any explanation. I had carefully read the rules before depositing and playing and believe I complied with them.

I was advised to submit a formal complaint by email, which I did. Despite sending multiple follow-ups, I have received no response.

I believe this decision is unjustified and request AskGamblers' assistance in investigating the matter.

My requested resolution:

A clear explanation of the specific alleged breach and supporting evidence.
A fair review of my account and verification documents.
Payment of my €3,165 winnings if the casino cannot substantiate its decision to withhold them.

I am willing to provide any additional documentation reasonably required to verify my account and resolve this dispute.

Dear AskGamblers Team,

Thank you for bringing this complaint to our attention.

We have reviewed the circumstances surrounding the account closure and would like to clarify that the decision was not arbitrary or made simply because the player requested a withdrawal.

The account was subject to additional verification and security checks, during which several significant issues were identified by our independent identi­ty-­ver­ifi­cation provider.

Following the review, our Security & Risk team determined that the account activity breached the applicable Terms & Conditions. Consequently, the account was permanently closed and the associated withdrawal was not approved.

We understand that the player disputes this decision. However, we would like to emphasise that the action was based on documented verification and security findings, rather than an unexplained or discretionary decision to withhold winnings.

For privacy and security reasons, we cannot disclose the player's verification documents, technical connection details or complete security assessment in a public discussion. However, we are prepared to provide AskGamblers with the relevant evidence confidentially to substantiate our findings.

We remain satisfied that the account restriction was justified under our Terms & Conditions and appreciate AskGamblers' assistance in independently reviewing the matter.

Kind regards,
LuckyGem Team
