Account taken under investigation for 6 months and money refused to be paid


3 years ago

I have seen that you closed my last complaint and I'm sorry I haven't replied to your emails I had some work to do. So from the description in the last email, I have seen that my complaint has been closed because of a lack of evidence. I see that MyStake has problems with other players and they are putting the account on 6 months investigation period which is incredibly long. So I have the same problem with this sportsbook as others that have opened complaints with them. I received this email from MyStake more than 1 week ago saying:

We are contacting you to inform you that your account is under investigation and it will be unavailable to use for the time of this procedure. The maximum timeframe of this investigation is six months. Once the investigation is completed, we will contact you with an update and inform you of the details then.

I received this email when I tried to withdraw 1700 euros after I won a few bets in a row. I contacted them through live chat but they don't have any clue why my account has been frozen and they also refuse to tell or pay me my money. The period of 6 months is incredibly long and shouldn't be that long I think so I'm here for your help in the term we can solve this faster and I can finally get my money back. I have around 2770 euros in winnings as my last bet won. Hopefully, we can fix this and I can get my money back as I should.

Missing bank withdrawals with a total amount of 4500 EUR

I am filing a complaint regarding two missing bank withdrawals from MyStake with a total amount of 4,500 EUR.

The withdrawals were marked as “Done” on May 1st, 2026, but the funds never arrived in my bank account at UniCredit Bank Austria.

Withdrawal details:

Amount: 2,000 EUR

Payment ID: P20260501-WHGG55

Amount: 2,500 EUR

Payment ID: P20260501-C6X25X

Additional payment information provided by MyStake:

Sender: CYGTW LTD

Payment provider/bank: Bilderlings Pay Limited / Pictures Bank

Recipient bank: UniCredit Bank Austria AG

SWIFT: BKAUATWWXXX

I received PDF payment confirmations from MyStake, but the funds have still not arrived.

I contacted both UniCredit Bank Austria and Pictures Bank / Bilderlings

Both confirmed that only the sender can initiate a payment trace or investigation.

Despite repeated requests, MyStake has refused to initiate a payment trace, provide MT103 documents, provide SEPA End-to-End References, provide UETR tracking numbers, or provide official proof that the transfers actually entered the banking system.

As of today, neither withdrawal has arrived, no returned transfer has been received, and no official banking proof has been provided.

The documents sent by MyStake only show internal “Done” statuses and do not appear to be official bank settlement confirmations.

I am requesting immediate payment resolution, official bank transfer tracking documentation for both withdrawals, or return of both withdrawal amounts to my MyStake balance.

I can provide PDF payment confirmations, screenshots, and chat/email communication with support if required.

Confiscation of Funds and close account
Réponse à MyStake – Clarification et contestation

Thank you for your response.

I would like to address a key inconsistency in the handling of my case, which I believe is highly relevant to this dispute.



📌 1. Conflicting information provided by the support team

Before the account closure and additional verification request, I contacted your live chat support and was explicitly informed that:

* my account was fully verified
* my withdrawal request was approved
* the payout would be processed within approximately three working days

At that stage, no issues, restrictions, or compliance concerns were communicated to me.

This communication created a legitimate expectation that my account had passed all necessary checks.



📌 2. Subsequent escalation and contradictory action

The following day, I was unexpectedly requested to complete an additional video KYC verification, which I fully complied with, providing all requested documentation and successfully completing the process.

Despite this full cooperation and apparent validation of my identity, my account was then permanently closed and my funds confiscated.



📌 3. Lack of transparency regarding internal review process

From my perspective as a user, there appears to be a clear inconsistency between:

* the confirmation of withdrawal approval provided by your support team
* and the subsequent compliance decision leading to account closure

This raises concerns regarding the transparency and timing of internal review procedures, particularly when a withdrawal has already been approved prior to any alleged violation being communicated.



📌 4. Compliance with verification requirements

I fully complied with all verification requests, including:

* standard KYC documentation
* additional video verification upon request

At no point was I non-cooperative or unwilling to provide any required information.



📌 5. Proportionality of the final decision

Even if a payment-related concern was later identified, I respectfully submit that:

* the account had already been verified
* the withdrawal had already been approved
* full identity verification was successfully completed

In this context, the permanent confiscation of funds appears disproportionate to the nature of the issue described.




📌 6. Request for reconsideration

Given the inconsistency between the initial approval communicated by support and the subsequent compliance decision, I respectfully request a full review of this case with particular attention to:

* the timing of the withdrawal approval
* the communication provided by live support
* the proportionality of the final sanction

I remain open to a fair and amicable resolution, including partial or full release of the remaining balance.



📌 Final note

I have acted in good faith throughout the entire process and fully cooperated with all verification procedures. ( i havé the vidéo vérification KYC too if you want )

Account frozen after voluntarily reporting a banking glitch

I am filing this complaint against MyStake regarding a frozen balance of $549.


The Incident: on 27th January, I attempted a $120 withdrawal. It was marked "Rejected" in the casino backend, and the funds were returned to my player balance. I continued playing with my balance (which included approximately $39 remaining + the returned $120).


I placed a few bets and then secured a significant win on a slot game ($400), bringing my total balance to $549.


Upon attempting to withdraw these winnings, I checked my MiFinity wallet to copy my details and realized the original $120 had also arrived in the wallet (a double credit). I immediately contacted Live Chat to report this error voluntarily.


The Discrepancy: My account has been frozen since I reported their error. Currently, my Visible Balance is $549. However, my Transaction History shows no activity after the $120 rejection.


The Proof: The existence of the $549 balance proves that legitimate gameplay and a win occurred after the rejection event. If the casino claims the $120 rejection was the end of the timeline, my balance would not be $549. The extra funds are legitimate winnings.


Desired Resolution: MyStake must deduct the $120 error credit from the $549 total and release the remaining $429 legitimate winnings.


please find attached:

- screenshots of my report of the error to the live support

- Mail Correspondance with the support, several days in a row

- Screenshot of my balance and player informations

- Screenshot of the transaction history available in the app


Thank you for your help


Regards,
