Betway Casino breaching one week suspension cooling off period allowing me revers and lose £13.5k of my winnings

Betway casino has refused to return my winnings of £13.5k after breaching their responsible gambling terms and conditions and regulations set by the Gambling Commission for responsible gambling.

On Wednesday 19th November 2014 I wont £13.5k. I withdrew the funds and request my account to be suspended via a one week cooling period from that date.

On Saturday 22nd November 2014 I enquired when I was able to open my account. I was informed I could open the account now if I wish during the one week period. As a result of this I lost the entire amount, allowing me to completely reverse the withdraw, despite the status ‘worked on’ and unavailable to at the time.

The cooling off period is designed to suspend the account on a certain period requested to prevent compulsive gambling and encourage responsible gambling. Betway have failed in their duty of care to adhere to these conditions set by their Terms and Conditions and the Gambling Commission.

Betway have declined to return any funds to me claiming that they are allowed to re-open the account during the cooling off period upon the customers request. They have also told me that as I have not made any deposits they are not able to refund me anything because I had reversed the funds. So it appears they are accepting partial responsibility??

I find this an utter disgrace and taking advantage of the players impulse that had already requested for a temporary suspension for seven days.

Their terms and conditions state that after the cooling off period is over, the account will automatically be re-activated. It does not say we can open the account during the cooling off period. At no stage did I request the account re-opened DURING the cooling off period on request. I asked WHEN the account can be re-opened to which customer stated I can reopen if I wish.

The withdrawal process is extremely slow and I feel that the casino had deliberately allowed me to gain access, which is a serious breach of trust. I find this casino an utter disgrace to allow me to re-open during my one week suspension. How they are regulated by the Gambling Commission that supports responsible gambling is astonishing. I request for my original funds to be reinstated on the basis that you have breached your own terms and conditions and the regulations set for responsible gambling, and taking advantage of my impulse during my suspension. I have all the copies of emails and phonecalls are all recorded on Betway with conversations I had.

Hi Quay,
Please see the findings from our investigation:

2014:
The account in question was first opened.
You had then deposited £430.00 and won £13 567.15 by playing online Blackjack.
These winnings were requested to be withdrawn.
You contacted us and requested for a cooling off period of one week. The reason was to wait for the funds to be processed.

You contacted us via chat, requesting to have your account reopened. You were advised that you could re-open the account upon your request. This was in alignment with Regulations as well as our Terms and Conditions. You replied with "Yes" and confirmed that you wanted the account to be reopened. Due to the fact that 24 hours has passed, you were able to reopen the account upon your request.

We received additional contact from you stating that you would like to reverse £9 500.00 of your £13 567.15 withdrawal. This was completed after receiving confirmation from you.
You contacted us via live chat at a later stage and requested an additional £4000.00 to be reversed which was completed after gaining confirmation from you once more. This left you with £67.00 as a withdrawal balance.

You had contacted us a day later, enquiring why you were able to re-open your account. Our Terms and Condiitons were explained to you however you requested a full refund on the account.

The remaining withdrawal of £67.00 was paid to you and the refund request was denied.

Please let us know if you would like to be contacted in order to follow-through with the resolution of your complaint.

Regards,
The Betway team

This is copied from the Betway Group page to show their Corporate Responsibility. They say they take responsible gambling very seriously. I am hope a Betway representative can understand that the responsible conduct of their gaming operator has fallen well below its required standards as outlined by their regulator eCOGRA.

Conta Bloqueada e Sem resposta
Senhores,
minha conta BETWAY foi bloqueada com meu saldo retido depois que eu realizei um acesso enquanto viajava de férias. Cabe ressaltar que a conta somente é utilizada em meu celular pessoal com minha internet própria que possui cobertura na america latina. Entrei no chat e pediram para encaminhar minha documentação via e-mail, comprovante de residência documento de identidade e comprovante bancário, que foram encaminhados e analisados. Os documentos foram enviados em 16/02 e após 48 horas recebi um e-mail do Sr. Jadson (anexo) informando que a conta seria liberada quando eu retornasse ao Brasil. Em 20 de fevereiro informei meu retorno e anexei o comprovante de passagem aérea com todos os dados do embarque e desembarque. Depois disso nunca mais me responderam, enviei um e-mail (em anexo) que não obteve nenhuma resposta e solicitei via chatque só me dizia que o setor responsável estava analisando e o prazo inicial era de 48 horas. Minha conta não foi liberada e retornei ao chat (em anexo) sendo irformada pela atendente que não havia prazo para anasile dos dados e não tinha mais nada para me informar, seriram me enrolando afim de manter minha conta retida com meu saldo. Até hoje não obtive resposta e estou com a conta bloqueada ainda sim tento resolver via chat e so pedem para aguardar. Por quanto tempo?? O dinheiro de minha conta onde foi parar? Não exite nenhum tipo de transparência pois somente preferem não responder!

Casino licenciado nao paga

Boa tarde,


No passado dia 21 de Dezembro de 2022, foi solicitado pela primeira vez, um levantamento no montante de 1403,62€, na plataforma BETWAY.PT licenciada pela SRIJ.

No momento a plataforma encontrava-se com problemas nos levantamentos, no dia 16 de Janeiro foi efetuada a transferência, mas nenhum valor foi depositado na minha conta, depois de enviar várias vezes o extrato bancário, onde era visível a ausência desse mesmo valor, foi-me solicitado que comunica-se a situação junto do meu banco, assim o fiz, tendo o meu banco averiguado que a transferência foi revertida, sem qualquer outra tentativa posterior. Encaminhei esse mesmo comunicado oficial do meu banco (Revolut), ao qual a operadora BETWAY.PT respondeu de forma positiva, assumindo que o valor foi devolvido e que iriam assumir total responsabilidade.

Com isto, passou-se dias e semanas, entre tentativas de contacto com o apoio ao cliente, que entre mentiras e lacunas constantes, foi-me solicitado um novo IBAN, desta vez de um banco nacional, assim o fiz, o funcionário do apoio ao cliente da BETWAY.PT, disse que foi feita nova transferência no passado dia 7 de Fevereiro, 2 dias mais tarde outro funcionário, disse que a situação ainda se encontrava em resolução, mais uma mentira e uma falha de comunicação.

A SRIJ, foi acionada logo no início deste processo, sendo comunicado num último email no passado dia 9 de Fevereiro, que não podem fazer nada porque a transferência foi realizada, mas que existiu um problema com o banco que reverteu esse mesmo valor e que sendo assim a situação não poderá ser solucionada através da SRIJ.

Depois de ter solicitado aconselhamento jurídico, foi-me comunicado que esta empresa BETWAY.PT, sediada em Malta, rege-se pela lei do pais de origem, o que dificulta ainda mais a situação.

Este processo parece não ter fim, com isto, temos uma casa licenciada a dever 1403€ a um cliente, usufruindo de uma impunidade que me deixa perplexo. Se a transferência foi revertida pelo meu banco, tal como confirmado pela plataforma BETWAY.PT e pela própria SRIJ, porque não é efetuada outra tentativa para a minha outra conta, essa já sediada em território nacional e com uma menor probabilidade de ser revertida.

É lamentável toda esta situação, o próxima passo, se na próxima semana, não conseguir resolver esta situação, será ativar os serviços jurídicos nacionais juntamente com as autoridades competentes.

Espero que me consigam ajudar com este processo.

Betway Casino - Betway purposely delaying withdrawal
So I have been waiting since 24th jan for my withdrawl to be processed and yet still have no recieved my funds.

The amount is £20,668.52

I have been sent around in circles being told one thing than another.

I sent documents and was told i was successfully verified.
But the withdrawl was still delayed.

An agent then was really helpful and requested a timeframe seems it was already overdue.

I was then sent a link to yet again verify. Which did not work.

I waited days for another link which worked and I did It right away.

Now Im back to sqaure one of being told to wait which I do then told to wait longer again.

Now today my account has been locked. So I asked this morning why and was told although its not yet being reviewed it can be closed during review...
So which is it I ask?

Though the next agent then told me it was locked due to concerns on chat which is absurd.

The only thing I can possibly feel that is being excused as a reason for concern is that I agreed with agents who said it is frustrating and said it is causing me stress, which it would any normal person being messed around with inconsistent information.

No consumer is happy about funds being withheld for no valid reason.

The agent then closed the chat on me which I think is disgustingly rude.

Under the Gambling Commission rules and the Consumer Rights Act 2015, players have the right to withdraw deposited funds and winnings at any time without unreasonable delay or restriction.

I would most certainly say this has been unreasonable. I sent all my documents for verification right away and its been delayed as much as possible, using any reason they can come up with.

I have all chats screenshotted but haven't uploaded due to the large amount.

Betway Casino - Not pay and live chat does not exist
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against Betway regarding a persistent failure to process my withdrawal request and the total absence of legitimate customer support. As a registered user, I have followed all established protocols for fund withdrawal, yet the platform has failed to uphold its contractual obligations and regulatory standards.

1. Failure to Process Payments
I have a significant balance in my account that I have attempted to withdraw. Despite my account being fully verified and having met all necessary wagering requirements, the payment remains "pending" or has been cancelled without a valid explanation. This constitutes a direct violation of the terms and conditions regarding the timely disbursement of player funds. It is deeply concerning that a platform of this scale is withholding legitimate winnings from its users.

2. Non-Existent Live Chat Support
Betway advertises a Live Chat feature as a primary means of resolving urgent issues. However, after numerous attempts to access this service, I have found it to be completely non-functional. The link either leads to a dead page or places me in an infinite loop within the "Help" section. A gambling operator must provide real-time assistance, especially when financial transactions are involved. The fact that the Live Chat is "invisible" or perpetually unavailable is deceptive and prevents players from seeking immediate help.

3. Automated Email Responses (Bot Interference)
Furthermore, I have attempted to resolve this through their official contact emails. Every communication I have sent has been met with a generic, automated response generated by a bot. These replies do not address my specific concerns and offer no path to speak with a human representative. This "wall of automation" is a tactic used to frustrate users and avoid accountability. There is a total lack of transparency and professional oversight in their communication department.
PD: I used ia because dont speak inglish thenkiu for you help
