Refusal to pay claiming fake KYC documents
After being limited by TrustDice I submitted a request for withdrawal. I was asked to provide KYC documentation, standard stuff, proof of identity, proof of address, and a selfie with my proof of identity. I sent them my government issued drivers license, front and back, a government issued utility bill, and a selfie of me holding my government issued drivers license. They emailed back stating the following:
Hello Jimdemeray81,

4.6 It's the responsibility of the player to ensure that all documents as a part of the KYC process are genuine. Faked or fraudulent documents provided may result in a confiscation of deposits and potential winnings of the player.

Your initial deposit will be returned. Please, provide your deposit address.

This is a false accusation and clearly just their way of not paying winners. I then replied to the email with an additional set of documents to further prove my identity. This time I sent them my passport, an additional government issued utility bill, and an updated selfie of me holding my passport. After 4 days of no response, I reached out to the live chat to see if I could get some info. They informed me that I needed to speak to the compliance team and that they would inform them that i had reached out. After that, communication was fairly quick but they are continuing to lean on my documents being fake and refusing to pay the balance of my account. Instead, they keep requesting a BTC address to refund my deposit.
I have made multiple attempts to solve this issue cordially with them to no avail. Also, they have banned access to my account. Hoping to find a solution that results in me being paid what I am owed so that I don't have to escalate this with the gambling commission or further. Thanks in advance for any help!
