Jolly good, hampuz I appreciate you guys pulling for me and trying to negotiate but for me it is non negotiable. I should be owed what I deposited that day and went to withdraw. I did not deposit 74bch all back to back to back and lose it all. I was adding on.

Should be since the last cashout. If you think about it, when they process your withdrawal, everything is reset. From then on when you are depositing them they are continuing to accept your action.

I’m sorry but you know what you owe me what I deposited in that day it’s absurd. I deposit 74bch back to back to back all af the same time then go to cash out 67 bch because that’s how the chips fell. How can I accept anything less than all my deposits back or the cashout requested. There’s no middle ground ethically for me. I’m sorry.

They're trying to alienate the one player who filed the original complaints on reddit, as if it were an issue with that specific person. However, there are many players who have issues with Cloudbet. I don't even know that one poster's name, there's many people who have issues with Cloudbet.

2. If a player is found to be circumventing our automated checks and connects from a prohibited jurisdiction (such as USA), their account is immediately frozen pending an investigation. In this case, the player in question knowingly and deliberately circumvented our location checks, and was discovered and confirmed to be located in USA. They provided both ID and address proof from USA and also repeatedly attempted to login from USA IP addresses.  
Easiest solution is to enforce KYC to all new and old players and you won't have problem with someone playing from restricted areas. But if you do that, you will lose lots players and you just don't want to do that, right? It is much easier to selectively scam someone.
Fellow members - we know the player is creating a lot of noise about this case
Yeah, it's always players fault  Roll Eyes

Thank you for your attempt at resolving this situation but you really should have responded far sooner since you have all the evidence and would not have taken steps such as blocking funds being withdrawn unless you had already collated it.

This episode has been an absolute PR disaster for Cloudbet.

With you saying that efxes has already withdrawn more than he deposited therefore you deem the matter closed - this point of view most definitely does have some merit but it does not cover all bases and does not go far enough. This is the same loop that other game players at Cloudbet have already been stuck in and if Cloudbet does not change the way it operates and uses their ToS to effectively steal funds then there will not be much reputation left.

If for example efxes deposited a total 499 BCH then gambled all of it and lost, then deposited a further 1 BCH to gamble but he was denied because it triggered a security alert, would you reimburse the full 500 BCH? Of course you would not do it so it is clear you are using the ToS as leverage to do what you want.

Though there are several ways in which this could be resolved and mutually settled I agree with Hhampuz - you should return his most recent deposit and then do that with all cases in future that have a similar back story.


Hi all -

Firstly, please accept our apologies for the delay in response and thank you to all - especially the senior members of the community - for your patience while we collated all of the relevant facts so that we could respond extremely accurately.

A comment on @efxes's case from Cloudbet.

1. Cloudbet does not accept players from USA. If USA players attempt to create an account, they see a clear message that their jurisdiction is prohibited.

2. If a player is found to be circumventing our automated checks and connects from a prohibited jurisdiction (such as USA), their account is immediately frozen pending an investigation. In this case, the player in question knowingly and deliberately circumvented our location checks, and was discovered and confirmed to be located in USA. They provided both ID and address proof from USA and also repeatedly attempted to login from USA IP addresses.  

That the player is located in the USA is without doubt, and we prohibit all players from USA. That they knowingly and deliberately circumvented our country checks is also without doubt.

3. In accordance with our T&Cs, in these situations we reserve the right to void all bets and return their account balance, up to the sum of their deposits. Furthermore, we reserve the right to confiscate funds in certain cases (such as repeat offenders). We did not confiscate any funds in this case, but instead voided all bets.

4. In this particular case, the customer has already withdrawn more than the sum of their deposits and accordingly we consider the matter closed. If the player offers their consent, we can gladly share transaction hashes of all relevant transactions.

5. Additionally, the player is sharing information and making claims in public web forums (such as this one) that they know to be untrue. For example, the player claims they have provided us with address proof outside of the USA which is untrue. The player has also made other untrue claims - such as the size of their deposits.

6. We continue to have a duty of privacy to the player, so cannot publish information we have that directly contradicts their claims without the player's explicit consent. We can, however, share this with our regulator, or an arbiter with the player's consent. Additionally, if the player would like to consent to us sharing this information with select senior members of the community, we would be happy to do so.

7. If the player wishes to continue their claim, we strongly encourage the player to take their case to either Curacao eGaming or AskGamblers.com, either of whom will act as an arbiter. We agree to be bound by any ruling they make in this case.

Fellow members - we know the player is creating a lot of noise about this case, and we treat every claim of this nature seriously, but in this situation, the player knowingly tried to circumvent our rules, was caught, has already withdrawn more than their deposit, and is providing false information in public. We ask for the community's support to dismiss these false claims by the player.

Thanks

Have you guys considered arbitration out of court to get these issues resolved? I mean, it's their choice to refuse USA customers, but Cloudbet has been involved in some dodgy practices in the past and there's only one way to get accountability

So you are saying that his previous withdrawals (deposits + winnings) is more than his total deposits that's why you feel entitled to claim his latest deposit?

When did you find out that he was violating your ToS btw? You could have blocked his account at that moment. Did you also intentionally waited the customer to deposit 74 BCH before freezing his account as @efxes claims here?

Do you guys still ban US customers? Very foolish. Without America, your ass is grass.

ban US customers?  of course not.  They accept thousands of US customer deposits every month most likely.  It is rare that one wins, and when they do, they ensure they are not paid even their deposits back because they are entitled steal from anyone and everyone they wish due to their anonymity. 

Oh, so they're still scamming people with that. I'm surprised Cloudbet is allowed a thread of its own here at all tbh. I remember calling them out for banning VPN users. That's not cool yo

I don't know what happened. You only gave us your deposit address but Cloudbet told that it is not your deposit address on Cloudbet. They rejected to give details publicly that I can understand. Sportsbet.io rejected to give details publicly too. To be fair, I think other companies should keep their user identity information in secret because when is leaked, it can be used for shady and harmful things, like doxing.

Assumed what you said is the truth: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-cash/address/qp468pkf0ujwcpr4ak70ceya4seyapzy4vxk7hewqv
With that address, you make 367 BCH into Cloudbet. All are marked as Unspent. I don't know how Cloudbet do with customer deposits and how they will credit balance for customer to bet.

Assumed Cloudbet is a liar about your deposit address, I don't understand why they lift the KYC card to freeze your account for 74 BCH while you made more than 270 BCH before that day.

On another day 20 Sep 2020, you made more than 74 BCH deposit: 159 BCH. Weird!

I don't protect Cloudbet for any reason. I am curious what happened only.

It is my deposit address, i promise 150%

Again, this started because of a mis-graded wager and they thought i was trying to steal from them.

Here's how it went:
I had $30,000 in the account.  A wager is mis-graded for $3,000.  They want to void all bets after that mis-grade because they are saying that i didn't inform the sports team about the mis-grade.  The mis-grade was in bitcoin, and I withdrew and re-deposited back to bitcoin cash which is what I had been gambling in the whole time before this happened.  The bitcoin balance went negative and I did not notice.  Then they pull the USA KYC card.

Again, mis-grade for $3k, I had already been depositing and withdrawing large sums and had well over $25k in the account at the time of hte mis-grade.  it makes zero sense to void all bets after that over a mis-grade for 10% of account balance.

1. Cloudbet does not accept players from USA. If USA players attempt to create an account, they see a clear message that their jurisdiction is prohibited.

yeah so you take the winnings AND losses from the players, you're a leech on the community


2. If a player is found to be circumventing our automated checks and connects from a prohibited jurisdiction (such as USA), their account is immediately frozen pending an investigation. In this case, the player in question knowingly and deliberately circumvented our location checks, and was discovered and confirmed to be located in USA. They provided both ID and address proof from USA and also repeatedly attempted to login from USA IP addresses.  

Immediately frozen?  you are only freezing accounts when you've built up enough trust or an account has built up enough profit over time of depositing and cashing out to freeze an account at your will in order to steal from the player

That the player is located in the USA is without doubt, and we prohibit all players from USA. That they knowingly and deliberately circumvented our country checks is also without doubt.


3. In accordance with our T&Cs, in these situations we reserve the right to void all bets and return their account balance, up to the sum of their deposits.

Buddy, you waited for me to deposit $20,000 to pull that card.  I had nothing in my account before depositing $20,000 in BCH (74BCH) in a single day, and then stealing that?  Return the funds in the account deposited!



5. Additionally, the player is sharing information and making claims in public web forums (such as this one) that they know to be untrue. For example, the player claims they have provided us with address proof outside of the USA which is untrue. The player has also made other untrue claims - such as the size of their deposits.

Feel free to share with the community what is a lie.  I have lied about nothing, I have said that I was in Mexico and feel free to prove that I wasn't because you can't.   There are things like VPN's and remote desktop connections that allow me to do work remotely on home computers etc.  You can't prove these things.  Even if you could it's immoral to take my last deposits.  


6. We continue to have a duty of privacy to the player, so cannot publish information we have that directly contradicts their claims without the player's explicit consent. We can, however, share this with our regulator, or an arbiter with the player's consent. Additionally, if the player would like to consent to us sharing this information with select senior members of the community, we would be happy to do so.

You have both of these syndicates in your pocket through bribery.

We ask for the community's support to dismiss these false claims by the player.

You want to know why I'm creating a lot of noise?  Because I'm willing to risk the $15,000 in order to make sure this never happens to anyone again in the community at your sportsbook.

Thanks

Team Cloudbet


Please, leave the flags, leave the negative feedback, let's get these scammers off of the internet.

Btw, this isn't just about USA violation or whatever and being able to steal from a winning account.  This is about a book finding any way "in their right" to scam and steal from the cryptocurrency community in an anonymous off-shore book type of way.  People need to know, please help us do the part of getting in the way of this shady company.

Leave flags, leave negative trust, and don't let this thread go back to the topic of sports betting which is how they want it with their multiple shill accounts.  Please.

And here are all the deposits , lied about nothing.  I made one mistake saying I made a final 50 BCH deposit and that was admittedly a mistake.  In fact, I made a succession of 74BCH adding onto my account balance on Cloudbet.

This is not about winnings.  This is about stealing my deposits using an angle saying that my account had already profited in the past so they're allowed to wait for a deposit to freeroll me.

This is ugly for Cloubet and potential gamblers and those who are already in gambling will stay away from playing here because obviously Cloudbet only wants to make a profit from players, and if a player won he will check for any violation and bring that if a player is violating then ban him while he is not playing not when he won, majority here will tell Cloudbet to pay his winnings.

With all due respect, it's not winnings.

I deposited $20,000 to the site that day.  I requested a $15,000 withdrawal and they want to call it winnings? 

Other than that clarification, this is spot on.

They want me to make a claim with two sites that they have in their pockets.  Curacao egaming likely has AskGambler's forum in their pockets.  Neither will do anything to help the player being stolen from.  Cloudbet needs to be banned from the internet, let's start with bitcointalk.

In regards to me "lying about deposits"?  Absurd.  I made one mistake- that my last deposit was a 50BCH deposit.  
I deposited 367 BCH total to the site.  I withdrew less than I deposited.

My last deposits were 74 BCH all in succession, adding onto my balance in the same day I requested that balance BACK.

Not only this, but they are insulting me immensely.  They are causing me to go through hoops in order to go through mediators in order to get the funds back instead of doing the right thing for the community, returning the account balance which was less than the last deposits, and doing the right thing so the community can see it.

They don't care about anything or anyone.  Only your crypto-currency.  Only your deposits.  Do not let this stand.

They just sent the same exact thing, saying that I'm lying about stuff on some other complaint forum:
https://lcb.org/onlinecasinobonusforum/player-complaints/cloudbet-steals-15-000-says-not-paying-back-even-deposits

Please help me guys.  I don't know what to do at this point.  I'm broke and destitute, I need the funds back that I sent them that day.  It's affected my life in an extremely negative way.

@cloudbet: Stop this mess.
You have already made fun of your own enough. You accepted this player as a customer, he was allowed to make deposits, and now that he has won some money, you are going to whine for documentation. If you really want to abide by the rules, then you should immediately request identification from KYC after a deposit, and not bring it up if a user has won a lot. This customer has deposited, you have accepted the bets so you are paying out. No nonsense arguments. Pay the customer.

That is sound logic it happen so many times on other gambling sites, if he has not won a big amount of money I don't think you will freeze his account but because he won big amount you raise up that issue you should have freeze his account on his first bet, this clients could have play for months without him knowing that he will not get his winnings if he wins because of this issue, but because he won he has this issue.

If you violate the rules as long as you are losing that's fine but if you won we will charge you of violating the rules.
