Hello>>
I am writing to you to inform you about my case with bookmaker williamhill who is holding my winnings of around 35 000 euros for 9 months.>>
I have opened my account at 30.07.2012 and made 3 deposits of 3000 EURO, 2000 EURO and 3000 EURO which means 8000 EURO in total. Ive placed bets in-play on a soccer game and all bets were settled as won. Ive logged to my account next day and account was still active but around midday on 31.07.2012 it was closed. Ive sent the email to customer service asking why my account is closed and they adviced me I have to go though age verification process and it will be reopened. I did it the same day (I can attach relevant email) and my account was reopened and I was invited in the email to bet again. However Ive tried several games and always my maximum stake was 0 so I ve rquested withdrawal. After 1 week when I didn’t get my money Ive send them email asking about it. On day later 07.08.2012 I got respond that my query was forwarded to relevant department and they are waiting for their respond. I gave them 3 months but didn’t get any respond so I decided to write to SBR. After some time person from SBR adviced me to contact WilliamHill customer service again. I was adviced my Customer service that everything is fine and I am welcome to make new withdrawal request what I did (I can provide screenshot of the email where they are saying: Kindly log in to the account and submit another withdrawal request then contact us again so we may be able to process it.), and update a SBR representative that they asked me to make new withdrawal request and that I am waiting for the money now. After 5 days I still didn’t get the money so I contacted them again. I got respond that my account is under investigation so my request was rejected and that they will update me when something new will happen in my case. This happened at the start of December. I informed SBR representative that they suddenly change their mind and are not going to pay me as they said before but didn’t get any other respond in this case. So after no respond from SBR I have contacted IBAS with my query but was adviced that they are unable to assist with cases about holidng withdrawals etc. After that I have exchanged over 30 emails with WilliamHill customer support and all the time they were telling me the same excuses saying they are doing some security checks on my account (Ive got at least 20 emails about those pending security checks in last few months).

My account is not blocked, is fully verificated, bets are settles as winners but I cant get those money for 9 months. I know WilliamHill is one the main sponsors at SBR website and probably their rating will remind A+ but you player be carefull...
I have now contacted Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner and looking for their reply.
