Withdrawal Problems and now Account Closure


I opened a new account with gr88 on the 12/02/15 with the 100% bonus with £100. Since then I have managed to build up the balance up to £1200 and have received confirmation from them that I have complete the rollover requirements. Now, when I have tried to withdraw the funds for the past few days, there hasn't been any card details to choose from for the withdrawal. Gr88 are saying this is a system issue that is being looked into. I deposited a further £10 to see if that would save my card details on their system and subsequently received an email saying that my account with them has been closed with no reason included. Prior to this I did message them to ask if a further deposit would fix this and they didn't mention not to or say that it would close my account.

All I want is to withdraw my funds from the account. I have fulfilled all the requirements as per the terms and conditions but the casino is making it very difficult to even attempt a withdrawal.

Rory Bennett is obviously disregarding the serious implications of defrauding people of their money entails. Numerous people have now come forward with similar stories as this. Gr88 clearly don't have the humility to pay out when honest people win big on their website.

I'm willing to accept that they made an error in labeling me fraudulent but they have made no effort in even verifying their data again or giving me (or anyone, including AskGamblers and SBR) examples or proof of where I have had multiple accounts. I doubt very much that this will happen though, seeing that Gr88 and Rory Bennett have gone silent on the matter.

And as for the serious implications, I have contacted their gaming commission regarding this. I have also contacted the Serious Fraud Office with details of this. And my solicitor will be in touch shortly if it isn't resolved. Please know Rory Bennett, if I don't receive my funds, I will do my best to shut down Olympian Trading Ltd and make sure you pay dearly through the court.

Thank You.

I have complained to https:­//w­ww.c­ur­aca­o-e­gam­ing.com/ with regards to this. They are the gaming commission that Gr88 are licensed under. More people have logged complaints with sportsbookreview stating the same problems I have been facing.

Withdrawal issues
After accepting a reload bonus of 100gbp on the back of a 1000gbp deposit, I played thru the roll-over requirements, having ended up with 4531.04 in the account after winning several bets. The funds were released to my account after contacting customer support and I submitted a withdrawal request. I was requested to supply more address/age/personal verification documents (despite already doing this when opening the account). These were verified and I was allowed to submit a withdrawal request. I ensured that this was lower than the permitted maximum of 2000gbp. This request was 3 weeks ago. Every time I contact customer support to find the status, I am told (usually via a copy and pasted message) that the withdrawal is still under review. The only place I received any decent contact was via Twitter until a man named Rory Bennett, from GR88.com security messaged to say that my withdrawal was delayed as I was masking my identity online. This is a lie and I responded in kind, including proof that my IP address is publicly visible. This was a week ago, and despite his message stating that the issue would be resolved early the next week, ie 3-4 days ago, I have heard nothing more despite 2 follow up emails. Attached is my publicly visible IP address as recorded the day I was speaking to Rory via email. I have emailed Rory, GR88.com customer support and Olympian Group one final time today to tell them that as of Monday I am going to publicize heavily (I am fortunate to work in a space in which a I have huge social media reach and influence) to try and ensure no one else falls for their scams and deposits with any of their 3 online casinos.

GR88 Casino refused to honour payout and kept my deposit
Hi, I was wondering if you guys can help. Please see thread below. I have summarised my complaint below. I opened an account with GR88 early December 2014 and deposited £200 and received £200 bonus. I was asked for ID documents before I started any wagers which I provided and my account was unlocked to place bets. Over the course of just under two months I wagered the bonus requirements placing bets almost daily and met the bonus rollover requirements by 12 February 2015. I had been lucky in that although some of my bets lost, but quite a few won. I also placed bets which were not part of the rollover requirement (odds below the rollover requirements) which also had some wins and some losers. Everything was fine until I had met the requirements for rollover At this stage I had got £1251 balance which I requested to withdraw. The withdrawal request was accepted (its not automatic and met be agreed with one of their advisors first). A couple of days after I received an email to say my account has been closed and they will not be paying anything out as they suspect fraud. No explanation provided and no evidence. I have not committed any fraud and have simply been lucky. I was accused of having multiple accounts and I challenged this by email. However, no evidence was provided. How can they as there is none. They are simply con artists. I have no other accounts with GR88 or with any of their other sister companies (nor does anyone else in my household). I placed the bets purely on my gut feeling and who i felt would win. I have attempted to contact GR88 a few times to request they review this as they have obviously made a mistake. They only decided to close my account once I wanted to withdraw my winnings. Sour losers who not only kept my winnings but even my original £200 deposit. Who's committing the real fraud? Up to then I was placing bets almost daily and wagered over £4800 in around 7 week period with average bet of £100 so over 50 bets placed. Funny how they only decided to claim its fraud with no evidence once I wanted to withdraw my winnings. It is completely unfair and underhand by GR88 to do this. I noticed that they do this quite often. I am happy to provide any further information required to prove my innocence. I was really upset about not only the payment being withheld but falsely being accused simply so GR88 did not have to pay out. RIP OFF bookie. I authorise you to contact GR88 about this on my behalf. My login ID was ******************. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks Naghmana *******
