200e Deposit did not credited to williamhill

Hi,

Im really worried right now with the time of verification for my account suspended.

Lets recap. Last friday (november 4th) Ive received and email asking additionnal information about me. They asked me to send another ID and proof of wealth. So Ive sent them 12 slips of pay, my driver liscence and my Passport.

During the night, Ive continue to played on the site (ive won 2K that night always on sportsbetting).

A couple of hours after that, my account was suspended so I went to the chat to understand what happened.

They say that they were asking for documents from me and they didnt received anything yet. So Ive sent that back to another specific email adress they got for documents.

The day after, saturday afternoon, I came back to the chat to confirm if they received my email. They confirmed me that the documents were received and that they were now under reviewed by the security team.

Ive received 2 email during that week-end. 2 automated system email saying that my account was now limited and that I was no more eligible for promotions. But still no email about an update of my account suspend.

Monday, I came back to the chat again to know whats going on. Same thing, I even talked to a manager saying that the documents are reviewed by the security team and that usually it takes 24-48 hours to review it.

Wednesday, still no news, I wont let it go so I went to the chat again talked to another manager, told me same things and even told me that he will personnnaly follow me up on it by email during the day. Guess what. Nothing again..

So today, thursday, I had no choice to come back on chat and asked to talk to another manager and Ive told them that this situation is now under review for more thatn 144 hours. Im still getting the same automated message from them that this is under review and they will respond me by mail.

Lets note that Ive also send them an email wednesday complaining about the lack of response and update from them. But Im still getting no email from them.

I really hope someone here can help me with it.

I got 22,200$ stocked in that account

Pardon me if my english is not at it best cause Im french

Thanks

Since 26.10.2021 I no longer have access to my William Hill account on which are at least 79640€ balance. Apparently it was blocked. I have tried to contact William Hill several times both in chat and by email.

Unfortunately, I have not received any information from them to date what is going on and why my account is blocked.

The only statement I got to hear several times in chat was:

We will get back to you within 12 or 24 hours.

Which never happened.

At this point, I unfortunately see no other option than to turn to the public, since William Hill apparently no longer wants to communicate with me without pressure. For your help I would be very grateful!

My situation is as follows, I will endeavor to give a short, but concise, true account in chronological order to help with the process.

Personally I am not an avid regular gambler and purely use it as a form of recreation for when I want to while away some time (if that makes sense), as a form of entertainment.

I opened up an account with WilliamHill's online casino on the 25th October 2018 having seen a free bonus/promotion for new users.

27th October 2018 I received an email asking for 2 documents for age verification purposes, this was promptly done.

29th October 2018 I received a confirmation email thanking me for the documents.

30th October 2018 I received an email asking for further confirmation under the KYC ("Know Your Customer") process. 2 further documents were sent, no further emails from WH regarding the above verification's.

30th October 2018 - 9th September 2019 play was made on the WH site

At the commencement of the account, I won a small amount of money with the said given new user incentive bonus, we were probably talking £10-£20 (wagered and withdraw able) at the time.

Subsequent to that, I then played any daily or weekly bonus' and promotions made available directly to my account from the small amount of initial winnings.

Over time (approx 10 months since opening the account), the account balance was fortunate enough to rise to circa £1,500 - £,2000.

The winnings were accumulated on all sections of their site, be it Vegas, Casino, Live Casino, Games, Macau etc. At no time was any collusion or any other forms of so called unfair/fraudulent betting made. It was all by luck, chance and mostly by a self awareness of knowing when to stop wagering on a particular part of their website.

9th September 2019 I received an out of the blue email from a <casino rep name removed> (Account Assurance Team):

"Following a thorough review of your William Hill Account 'USERNAME, we've taken the decision to suspend it permanently.

This decision is in line with our Terms and Conditions. For further information please check Section 12 - Closure of your account; Termination of terms of use of our Terms and Conditions. Here's the link:

https://williamhill-lang.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/6719/."

10th September 2019 I went on to live chat to seek an explanation, unfortunately live chat were unable to shed any light on the matter.

10th September 2019 I sent an email to support@willhill to seek clarity and information on the email from regarding the suspended account.

12th September 2019 I received an email from Amie (Executive Relation Officer):

I write in further to your recent contact dated 10/09/2019.

After a thorough review of your account, the decision remains that your account is suspended, this is a business decision which is non negotiable and we are not obligated to disclose the reasoning for this.

In regards to your funds, unfortunately your balance on the account will be retained whilst your account is suspended and you will be unable to withdraw these.

I hope the above clarifies our position in regards to this matter, and we wish you all the best.

Today 15th September 2019 - I seek advice on where I can now take this matter and/or if there is any recourse. Upon the suspension I had a balance of £1,800.09 in my account and as it stands, the funds have been taken from me without a specific reason. As mentioned, I was in my opinion doing nothing untoward nor disingenuous with regards the betting procedures during the time frame above. I find it totally inappropriate that a "business decision" can be to take more than £1,800 from me without a specific factual reason. Yes, I may have accrued the balance via various promotions and bonus' offered but I had used them in good faith as per the Terms and Conditions. Is it my fault that I won money from playing various slots/games etc over a period of time for the above mentioned bonus'?

To this day I have no idea was I have been so harshly dealt with. If it were fraud I get it, if it were for bonus abuse (I dont see how), why did they just not exclude me from bonus' and promotions? As it stands I do not know where to turn or what my rights are, any help or guidance would be thoroughly appreciated.

Various emails and transcripts are held from the commencement of the account opening to the last correspondence if required.

Many thanks for taking the time to read.

I am disgusted that William hill allowed my account to be reopened after i had closed it 2 years ago and my devices were severely hacked 28th february 2019 to which hacked gained access to all my bank ...email..accounts and reopened them.i reported this to my bank who had no response from William hill and said that the only way to get my money back for this unauthorised transactions was to report it to William hill.

That was 4 weeks ago and William hill just tell me everyday that I need to send documents to which i have done and still nothing.

I want justice as I have waited long enough..Sent all proof needed aswell to back my case I'm also a member of gamstop so this account should never of been opened to which i sent proof to William hill second opinion team also.im 34weeks pregnant and have suffered in hospital due to this situation for stress as I have had this done to myself.£591 is alot of money to a single mum of 1 and pregnant with my second child and I need my refund asap .william hill wont respond and I am at my wits end now !!!
