bet365 Casino - Igrački račun je zatvoren bez obrazloženja.

I am filing a formal complaint against bet365 (Lucky Stream Ltd) for the fraudulent withholding of technical gaming data and systematic deception regarding a winning session.

1. Forced Termination & 5-Hour Account Life:

My account was abruptly terminated only 5 hours after registration (01/02), exactly during an active "Bonus Buy" round (Round ID 125111075580). The session was forcefully interrupted at the 4th spin while a x19 multiplier was active, preventing the completion of a high-potential winning round.

2. Data Suppression (Logs):

Following regulatory pressure, the operator provided the Round ID but has persistently refused to provide the official Raw Game History Log. They falsely claim the data is "unavailable" or "under investigation" to avoid settlement of the actual winnings.

3. Official Provider Confirmation (March 14th):

In direct contradiction to the operator’s claims, I possess written confirmation from the DPO of Pragmatic Play (the game manufacturer), stating that the full Raw Logs for this round were retrieved and officially forwarded to the operator on March 14th. [GDPR - Article 28]

4. Financial Coercion (Passport Extortion):

The operator rejected my legal National ID (Law 5056/2023) and coerced me into an €80 expense for a biometric passport as the sole condition to access my balance, while still refusing to settle the winnings from the interrupted Bonus Round.

Evidence Available:

I have a comprehensive file of 16 PDF documents, including the DPO correspondence from Pragmatic Play and an Internal Audit Trail (dated 26/03) proving the operator held "Key Notes" while claiming workload delays. These files are available to the CasinoGuru team for private verification.

This case is already under active investigation by 5 authorities: MGA (Malta), HDPA, HGC (Greece), ECC, and the Consumer Ombudsman

FINAL EVIDENCE UPDATE - PROOF OF DATA SUPPRESSION & MANUAL INTERVENTION

I am submitting the ultimate proof of bet365's deception:

1. The "Handwritten" Proof:
2. The operator officially sent me a handwritten log containing details for exactly 4 out of the 15 spins of the Bonus Buy. This is an admission that they have full access to the game data. It is technically impossible and a blatant lie to claim that "no records exist" for the remaining 11 spins of the same pre-paid session.
3. Manual Account Closure vs. Technical Fault:
4. The session did not "break." The operator performed a MANUAL account termination exactly during the active, pre-paid Bonus Buy (Round ID 125111075580). It is strictly FORBIDDEN to close an account while a pre-paid session is in progress. They are "labeling" their manual intervention as a "technical problem" to avoid paying the x19 multiplier win.
5. Pre-generated Outcome:
6. In a "Bonus Buy" session, the outcome of all spins is locked on the server the moment the buy is confirmed. The data exists. Their arbitrary "refund" of 20€ and the 40€ "goodwill" payment is a desperate attempt to suppress the actual RNG results that they manually interrupted.
7. Coerced Expenses:
8. They forced me to pay 80€ for a biometric passport to release my initial deposit, while they were already suppressing my winning logs. This is financial coercion and a violation of GDPR proportionality.

The operator is caught in a contradiction: they provide handwritten notes while claiming logs are missing. I request the CasinoGuru team to demand the full RAW LOGS immediately

Dear karkost13,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about the problem you’ve encountered.

Thank you also for the detailed explanation and the additional evidence update. I understand your concerns regarding the interrupted session and the missing game data.

Before we proceed further, I would like to clarify a few important points:

• Have you received any refund of your original deposit or any additional compensation from the casino (you mentioned €20 refund and €40 goodwill — can you confirm this was actually received)?
• Have you received any final official statement from the casino explaining the reason for the account closure and the interrupted round?

You can forward all relevant communication and documents directly to petronela.k@casino.guru if that is more convenient for you.

At the same time, I need to be transparent with you. This particular casino has a No Reaction Policy on our website, meaning they have consistently failed to respond to our attempts to mediate complaints. In fact, we have already handled multiple cases with them where no cooperation was provided at all.

For this reason, it is very likely that your complaint will be closed as unresolved without us attempting to contact the casino, as previous experience has shown that such attempts do not lead to any response or resolution.

Nevertheless, we will review the information you provide and assess whether there is any additional guidance or steps we can recommend.

Your cooperation in providing these details will help us investigate and work towards a resolution.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Petronela

Dear Petronela,

Thank you for your guidance. I have just sent 17 PDF documents containing the full email history directly to your email (petronela.k@casino.guru). Here are the clear clarifications that prove the operator's bad faith and deliberate data suppression:

1. Regarding the Payments & Admission of Liability:

I confirm that I received a total of: €376.58 (legitimate winnings prior to the interruption), €20.00 (full refund of the Bonus Buy cost), €12.52 (winnings from the first 4 spins), and €40.00 (arbitrary "goodwill" payment).

Crucially, the credits of €20, €12.52, and €40 were made UNILATERALLY by bet365. Despite my explicit written refusal to accept any settlement until the official Logs were provided, the operator forced these payments to present the case as "resolved" to the Authorities. The refund of the €20 purchase cost is a legal admission that the service I pre-paid for was never delivered due to their own fault.

2. Financial Coercion & KYC Sabotage:

The operator subjected me to financial coercion. They arbitrarily rejected my legal EU ID and forced me to pay €80 for a biometric passport just to release my initial €376.58. While the law allows 30 days for KYC, they terminated my account in just 5 hours! Most importantly, after I provided the passport and the verification was finalized (as they paid me), they never explained why the account remained closed and why I wasn't allowed to complete the Bonus session. This proves the KYC was just a pretext to stop the winning session.

3. The Technical Fraud (DPO vs bet365):

There is a massive contradiction regarding the "missing" logs. Please review the document titled "Bet365_Statement_Accusing_Pragmatic_of_Data_Loss.pdf".

In this official email, bet365 claims that "neither we nor our provider (Pragmatic Play) have records".

On the contrary, I have a written confirmation from the Pragmatic Play DPO (March 14th), stating that the full Raw Logs were successfully retrieved and sent to bet365.

The operator is suppressing the data to avoid paying the x19 multiplier that was locked in the server.

Note on Documents:

I have attached the full email history in PDF format. All emails have been automatically translated via Gmail to ensure the original headers and timestamps remain visible and authentic.

I remain at your disposal for any further details.

Best regards

Dear karkost13,

Thank you for your detailed messages and for providing all supporting documentation.

After carefully reviewing the information you have shared, we regret to inform you that we are unable to proceed further with your complaint.

Your request is primarily based on obtaining raw game logs and recalculating the outcome of the interrupted Bonus Buy round. However, this falls outside the scope of our mediation. Only the game provider, in this case Pragmatic Play, has access to the necessary internal data and the authority to verify or reconstruct the outcome of a game round. We do not have the capability to access or assess such data.

Additionally, based on the information provided, the casino has already:

• refunded the cost of the Bonus Buy,
• credited winnings from the completed portion of the round,
• and provided additional goodwill compensation.

While we understand that you disagree with this resolution, this approach is generally consistent with standard industry practice in cases of interrupted gameplay.

Given these factors, and as your claim relies on technical verification and data access beyond our capabilities, we are not in a position to challenge the casino’s actions further.

For these reasons, your complaint will be rejected.

We recommend continuing your efforts with the relevant regulatory authorities, as they are the only parties capable of requesting internal logs and conducting a deeper investigation.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,

Petronela
