      I think you got shafted this time.

      I also don't think it is a good look have a green light for the book on your dispute at Askgamblers.

      But I thought with all your experience in this you would understand why AG had to rule against you.

      The book sucks and should not have anything positive published about it. I see they kept changing their story. But they came up with a valid justification based on terms, which is what AG rule upon.

      Anyway, don't want to pile on to your pain more.

        I'm glad you think so. The site is blacklisted at ThePogg for a reason.

        As long as the book does not refund 100% of my deposits, there is no way this case can be considered resolved.

        This term is not in accordance with the law. Hence, it is null and void.

        Anyway, let's assume for a moment that term would be valid:

        1) How and based on which term/rule does the book justify the voiding of all other bets that are not affected by the 30% rule (see screenshots below for examples)?

        2) How and based on which term/rule does the book legitimate the confiscation of parts of my deposit?

          Yes they need to at least refund your deposit, maybe AG did not realize that wasn't done? You should be able to ask them to re-open you case for that part I'd think?


          The normal justification for cancelling all winnings when players have bet over the limit is that all your betting is tainted by having more money in your account than you should have. And that this not only allowed you to bet larger than you should have, but also results in you choosing to bet differently.

                  My apologies for questioning your judgement.

                  Weird that they would not be concerned about the deposit.

                    Another complaint: https://thepogg.com/complaint/whitel...ted-4000-euro/

                    This guy deposited 30k in total, won 4k and tried to withdraw. Then they used the same "excuse" to confiscate his money like in my case...

                    BTW someone called me today to verify my account. I'm still trying to withdraw the rest of my deposits they left on my account but, man I can tell you, they try everything to even keep that money

                      That 30% rule is absurd. I will never play with this book.

                        Europeans are so feminine, it's no wonder their sportsbooks are notorious for having no balls.

                        Let's hope the legal USA sportsbook scene operates in true American fashion (big time, balls, fair) and not the European way: small time, scared, and crooked.

                          A lot of American sportsbooks are European companies, including FanDuel which is owned by Paddy Power/Betfair.

                              That whole T&C is full of shit and grammatical error, especially when it states that the English version is the most up to date and shall override any other language T&C found. Not 1 notary in Cyprus would notarize it. It has zero legal authority as they state that it does oh so many fukin times. They seem to threaten the player a number times in T&C before the player has even played.

                              Send em a pay now or pay in court letter from your attorney lonnie55. My guess is the response will be none to rapid and the side would go radio silent

                                I have already forwarded the case to a lawyer in Curacao. The problem is exactly as you described. Usually the books don't respond to legal letters. And from what I've heard, even if it comes to a court case it happens very rarely that someone from the book's side would appear in front of the court. In the rare case there is a judgement against the book, it's very unlikely the book will pay. They could just say they are insolvent and thus would not be able to pay, just to come back a week later with a new brand under the same license.

                                What I can barely understand is how the master-license holders get away with it over and over again. My guess is that the political and justice system in Curacao is structurally corrupt and that there is a significant number of politicians, prosecutors and judges who benefit from the gambling system as it is currently constructed and are therefore not too eager to change anything on the status quo.

                                  Exactly why the entire industry needs to held to an independent escrow system of 200% of the houses average monthly liability.

                                    Betreff: [#IAN-115-93766]: hello from WhiteLion Bets
                                    Dear Bastian

                                    You had your case reviewed by AskGamblers who ruled the case in favour of the casino due to the fact that we have provided sufficient evidence to support our claims under the terms.


                                    Please be advised that you have broken the terms and conditions of the casino and therefore, we can no longer help you.


                                    This case is now closed.


                                    Kind regards




                                    White Lion Bets Casino

                                    My repeated requests to refund the full amount of my deposits are being rejected with reference to the "resolved" AskGamblers case.

                                    Thanks AskGamblers

                                        This site is designed for scamming! They will even confiscate your deposit!

                                          AskGamblers is absolutely ignorant about the confiscation



                                          Bastian 03:50:27 pm
                                          ...
                                          please have a look
                                          the deposits were: 50, 500, 200, 300
                                          and at first they only returned 200
                                          randomly
                                          no idea how they came to that conclusion
                                          when I complaint about it, they corrected the amount to 300
                                          but that was it
                                          Hope 03:53:48 pm
                                          So they have returned 300

                                          yes
                                          instead of 1.050
                                          which means they only voided the winning bets
                                          but not the lost bets
                                          they have to VOID ALL BETS!
                                          or pay me my winnings
                                          those two options are existing
                                          there is no rule in their ToS which would justify the confiscation of parts of the deposit
                                          or which says "only the winning bets will be voided"
                                          "Placing single bets equal to or higher than 30% of the most recent deposit in play, if it is smaller than the bonus. This max bet limit applies to all players even if no bonus is received, or if the Total Wager Requirement has been cleared."
                                          this is the rule they are referring to
                                          so they say I violated this rule
                                          okay, this rule is absolutely ridiculous but I accept that they apply it (I do not accept the rule itself but that's not the point here)
                                          so what's next?
                                          they have to void all the bets which breached that rule, right?
                                          would you agree?
                                          but they didn't
                                          they only voided the winnings
                                          not the lost bets
                                          Hope 03:59:11 pm
                                          If it was the one single deposit it would be much easier
                                          Bastian 03:59:19 pm
                                          but it wasn't
                                          Hope 03:59:24 pm
                                          but the rule has been breached many times
                                          Bastian 03:59:30 pm
                                          okay
                                          but what is the consequence?
                                          they have to void ALL of the bets which breached the rule
                                          instead they are only voiding the winnings
                                          that is the point here
                                          and it's my money
                                          1.050 EUR
                                          money I have deposited
                                          from my eWallet
                                          no winnings whatsoever
                                          MY OWN MONEY!
                                          I did never claimed any bonus whatsoever
                                          nothing
                                          so how can they keep MY OWN MONEY?

                                          Maybe you have lost the first 700, and then made irregular bets
                                          Bastian 04:01:36 pm
                                          no, I can prove it

                                          based on which rule?
                                          based on which law?
                                          based on which understanding of a business conduct?
                                          but you misinterpreted my case, didn't you?
                                          you said before that you thought that they only kept my winnings
                                          which is not the case
                                          you said >>As I understood, the source of your winnings was a part of your deposit that was returned to you
                                          so what did I say?
                                          you have a wrong understanding of my case
                                          yet you closed it as resolved
                                          Hope 04:05:31 pm
                                          And since those 300 were found to be the source of your winning made by irregular betting, they have been returned to you

                                          so they have to void these bets as well

                                          so go ahead
                                          name one

                                          I can't do that now, and since I don't have anything more to tell you about this, I will have to leave you
                                          Sorry about that

                                              They also need 3+ weeks to pay back my deposit. The support said it is due to a high volume of requested withdrawals. Sure...

                                                It is normal that only the last deposit is refunded.

                                                But I am assuming your re-deposits were to make more bets when the balance was all tied up in pendings?

                                                  So you're fine with them applying this 30% rule only to won bets but not to lost bets as well?

                                                      No. I was just understanding what the AG rep was saying about it would be easier if it was all one deposit.

                                                      And if all deposits were in a chain, ie you did not go near zero (balance+pending) at any point, I agree if all betting is cancelled, so should all deposits.

                                                        Lol, today they called me saying they would need the documents which I already sent them TWICE, on October 25 and January 10 again. They claim they didn't receive them although they already confirmed the withdrawal multiple times
