What does that mean? They have a list of sites they "work with" regarding player appeals and unless the casino is on that list they won't help?
Correct

I know it's none of my business, but why the hell would you go from that to something like TrustDice? If you have money to spend and you are looking for a new car, you don't go and buy a second-hand Fiat Panda from the 80's.
Generally its good to have as many books as possible, i have money on +20 different sites right now.
Lets say i have a one specific edge against Pinnacle, but they might fix it tomorrow, so its good to have some softer books as a backup.

No need to disrespect Fiat Panda, Trustdice = rusty Moskvich 412, or some kind of shitty Chinese knockoff car.

Sadly, you did.
Getting scammed/banned like this is extremely rare, usually the worst thing that happens is very long KYC process/ they ask for source of funds etc.

Quote
Due to the stress and mental suffering they decided not to speak to this community any more. It has, of course, nothing to do with the fact they were caught lying trying to show that a player was placing bets after matches already ended.
Trustdice falsely banned 2 customers(3 if you count me), and then Coinbox decided to run off because he got criticized? Amazing.

But Coinbox1, good luck banning every single winning sports bettor.

I honestly hope it wouldn't come to that ends, them losing sports bettor or any other user, they're probably a good platform, somewhere beneath those onion layers of them, as they could survive this long and has several good --emphasize on "several"-- conclusion for accusations thrown towards them. They probably just had a... poor resolution team. Nothing a good training and weeding out can't fix.

Only reason why Laki21000 got his money back was because Coinbox1/Trustdice was dumb enough to think that every 4th quarter bet is a late bet / Or they thought that nobody would analyze Laki's bets.
I agree with you that the forum representative Coinbox1 is an incompetent idiot who doesn't know what he is talking about when it comes to sports betting, and he claimed that his staff and him were bullied by the likes of me and HolyDarkness (who he called another Croatian). Due to the stress and mental suffering they decided not to speak to this community any more. It has, of course, nothing to do with the fact they were caught lying trying to show that a player was placing bets after matches already ended. Still, the moronic nature of the casino rep doesn't warrant a negative rating from an objective point of view for something that hasn't or can't be proven.     

Oh LOL, if I may be honest, up to this day, I'm still amazed by the audacity of that marketing staff, pulling stunts like that; twisting words when cornered and then when caught red handed, played victim by saying people of this forum bullied them and taxing their mental health, and as such, ceased from addressing any future issues on this forum.

Speaking of which, honestly, I'm actually not sure if their decision to cease from addressing complaints would work in their favor. Just like the consensus of this thread says, which didn't mention a specific gambling platform and discussed all the platforms in general, the forum finds it quite troubling that a project who announced their service here refused to clear disputes raised against them. I wondered what will they say and do when --let's suppose-- accusations against them are pilling up because they refused to answer to any of it here, and then they got tagged --by anyone, in general-- for those unresolved disputes.

Why are you banned from betting on Esports? Why would an honest gambler get banned from betting on an entire sport?
By banned i meant limited, which is perfectly normal.

One more thing. When CasinoGuru rejected your complaint, they emailed you and suggested several websites that deal with sports betting-related issues. If you still think you are being wronged here, have you or do you have plans to contact some of those sites? 

None of these sites had Trustdice.

If there is nothing else, my negative review will be changed to neutral for this casino and its forum representative, also informing the community that the casino has decided against sharing evidence or discussing scam accusations on Bitcointalk.
100% fine, I understand your point of view, I would trust Askgamblers over a random Bitcointalk user as well. You and HolyDarkness have been fair and neutral, but the problem is I cant defend myself, because i don't know what i did wrong. Only reason why Laki21000 got his money back was because Coinbox1/Trustdice was dumb enough to think that every 4th quarter bet is a late bet / Or they thought that nobody would analyze Laki's bets.

TrustDice's decision to not wanting to respond to scam accusations in the forum
Rip new victims.


Quote
As how I've stated here, I have been weighting upon this decision for a while now as OP's activities and involvement on his case seems to became more and more sporadic, as well as how they seems to put less and less effort on their case, tilting the balance of the weight more towards the validity of decision made by AG.
I wasted way too much time w this case, its really not worth it for me.

I don't really care about the money, i wanted to find out if Trustdice was incompetent or blatantly scamming me. After they accused me of multi accounting, i finally got my answer. Perhaps i burned the bridge too early, but I couldn't help myself because Coinbox is such a massive scumbag.

So again, just so this is clear: We have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and countless hours developing mechanisms to combat abusers. By publicly showing these sensitive details as evidence, the abusers lurking for abuse opportunities will figure out ways to beat our mechanism. In fact, this has happened before and we had been burnt.
Hes clearly talking about the casino, they are paying their provider who is taking care of their sports betting operation.

+ We already know from the other thread that nobody in Trustdice understands anything about sports betting.
+ We know that Laki21000 and Nikiton1994 were falsely banned on the same day as me.

Like maybe hire one person who understands sports betting, i get it that +90% of your profit comes from casino but come on.


By the way i have won over +600k€ against the worlds sharpest books like Pinnacle/Betcris, so i know my fair share about sports betting, the fact that the most incompetent & scammy bookie in the world calls me abuser is laughable.

But Coinbox1, good luck banning every single winning sports bettor.

@Pmalek you keep your negative feedback and flag although not seeing OP’s reply for 20 days. Maybe you want to take a look here?
Thanks for reminding me. OP has had plenty of time to respond if he wanted to, but he hasn't done that. The flag doesn't have enough support because other DT members withdrew it, so my support for it doesn't mean anything. Anyways, I will withdraw my support as well now. The negative feedback will be deleted and I will leave a different neutral one instead.

I just read the whole story. TD succeeded in proving to Ask Gamblers banning OP is the right decision and supplied good evidence. OP says he’s innocent but he gone AWOL now.

@Pmalek you keep your negative feedback and flag although not seeing OP’s reply for 20 days. Maybe you want to take a look here?

As such, the tag will be changed to neutral to serve as a reminder for this case.
I will give the OP some time to see if they will respond. If not, I will do something similar. But I am going to delete my original feedback and add a neutral one linking to TrustDice's decision to not wanting to respond to scam accusations in the forum. Bitcointalk players need to know that if they run into problems with this bookmaker, they shouldn't expect to get a response in case they create a scam accusation thread. Instead, they need to include a mediator that may or may not be interested in investigating what happened depending on the case details (TOS violations, sportsbook infringements, etc.).

Below is Coinbox1's reply in regards to the most recent development for the case. I'll gladly play an owl as they're seemingly stand by their words and refused to reply here.

Mr. holydarkness,

It is funny that you ask this now. Because right in the beginning you had been told exactly why we cannot publicly show such sensitive information.
Hi holydarkness,
[...]
However, kindly note that our updated internal policies forbid us from sharing such details in public forums, unless particularly authorized by our management and approved by the player. This is for both privacy and anti-abuse concerns. In fact, for the sake of open and transparent communication with Bitcointalk community, we had shared such details on the forum in the past, which did get us quite some compliments. However such transparency was later exploited by abusers who saw it.

So again, just so this is clear: We have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and countless hours developing mechanisms to combat abusers. By publicly showing these sensitive details as evidence, the abusers lurking for abuse opportunities will figure out ways to beat our mechanism. In fact, this has happened before and we had been burnt.

As how I've stated here, I have been weighting upon this decision for a while now as OP's activities and involvement on his case seems to became more and more sporadic, as well as how they seems to put less and less effort on their case, tilting the balance of the weight more towards the validity of decision made by AG.

To be honest, it was in my sincerest hope that bumping this thread by reposting OP's defense from other thread will sparks OP's activity, as that seeems to be not the situation here, it became less and less fair to keep the tag on Coinbox1.

Don't get me wrong here, I am still in my opinion that TD's actions toward resolving disputes are more in poor side, but I have to agree that --under these recent developments and situation where OP keeps being absent-- it is not fair to keep the tag, especially considering the above defense made by TD against providing evidences, as stated on the last part of the quoted post from them, is within the realm of reasonable.

As such, the tag will be changed to neutral to serve as a reminder for this case.

Please kindly understand that as per our Terms & Conditions, we are under no obligation to provide excessive details to a user who's been banned for his or her violation of the T&C.
It's great to know that your operation is so transparent. A player can be banned without anyone knowing why including the player. If the player asks what they did to deserve the ban, you will send 3-4 terms and conditions violations their way and have them pick one out, or what? The reasons and rule violations you mentioned have nothing in common.

So according to the information provided here, the player may or may not have been banned for one or all of the above things:

- having insider info/receiving information from someone close to the team/league/sports.
- using multiple accounts.
- doing any activities that are against the interests of the casino (could be anything in the world).

Is this player a multi-account abuser who is also involved in late betting and has professional insider knowledge about certain sports or what is going on? Why mention insider betting if it's not directly related to this case?

So let me expand on what I already have said (The details are not mentioned to avoid jeopardizing our anti-abuse detection system) :
We found OP's account had been acting in a manner that's impossible for an ordinary human player and its various signals shall be considered abnormalities for an ordinary human player. And all of such data have been well documented.
Ordinary human player? That would then make him an unordinary human player. If he is unordinary, we are going back to the professional/insider betting patterns. Or maybe you are suspecting bot-like behavior.

You made yourself look ignorant with your claims in the other case concerning Laki where you attempted to provide proof of late bets and failed. And such an incompetent team has now investigated another case and found "abnormalities". Do I need to remind you that the "abnormalities" you found in Laki's scam accusation thread were laughable and proved your ignorance? That might be the reason why you have decided against going into details this time around because it could show that you have nothing.


@Poika5
Why are you banned from betting on Esports? Why would an honest gambler get banned from betting on an entire sport?
One more thing. When CasinoGuru rejected your complaint, they emailed you and suggested several websites that deal with sports betting-related issues. If you still think you are being wronged here, have you or do you have plans to contact some of those sites? 

I just checked the AskGamblers complaint. It's a neutral 3rd-party that hasn't given me a feeling of being biased. Their decision goes against you and this case seems pretty much closed after that. Do you have anything else to add or have you taken any other steps in the meantime?

If there is nothing else, my negative review will be changed to neutral for this casino and its forum representative, also informing the community that the casino has decided against sharing evidence or discussing scam accusations on Bitcointalk.

The first decentralized crypto betting platform
Now the funniest thing, all the fake 5 star reviews came from people who somehow live in the US.


Apart from the fact that they may be bought fake reviews, which I'm not going to go into, it wouldn't be unusual for them to put that in their ToS and then accept players from those countries. I think that many times the ToS are put as a façade but in day to day practice is other, I am referring in general to cryptocurrency casinos, not just this one. This is something that has been repeatedly commented on in the forum. Or that they say they will do KYC from an amount in account or wagered and then do not do it is also common.

Quoting this post from OP's post on other thread to allow Coinbox1 to address their latest counter-defense

Quote
And with Poika5 went AWOL, and TD refused to answer the defense on his last post
No, I just didn't want to deal with this during the holidays.

I dont know how can i prove that i didnt multi account, but i will try:
1. Im from a very small country and i bet on small/specific market, I would get caught/limited really fast if i tried to multi account.
2. Multi accounting was pointless because i had other alternatives, a few hours after i got limited on Trustdice i deposited money to Thunderpick.io, a site that uses the same sportprovider.

29. September, 100% limited from TrustDice.


29. September, Thunderpick.io deposit:

By the way, its been 3 months and my Thunderpick.io account is still not limited.


I got banned for 2 reasons:

Quote
* we determine that you are acting in a manner that is detrimental to the conduct of our business;
Winning sports bettor = detrimental to Trustdice making money.

Quote
or using the late bets strategy;

As we know Trustdice thinks that every live bet is a "late bet", and I placed 4 live NBA bets, because I still had to finish my 5x rollover(I was banned from Esports betting, so I could only bet on "normal sports").



Getting scammed feels awful, so here is a little bit of mental gymnastics:
They scammed 1700$ from me, but i helped Laki21000 get his 2100$ back.
So in a way banning me cost them 400$, which makes me happy.

Seems unacceptable reason about people controlling by bot or abnormal activities in gambling platform, I sure they don't happy when have user get huge amount winning and always give difficult position for us if can't loss more in gambling.

Based on reason from Trustdice actually you have bot or some thing lack from Trustdice gambling casino, exactly they have detect your account abnormal betting and make your account suspend. I think from Trustdice casino gambling platform have valid proof for showing which one betting have been abnormal and they have giving valid reason without assumption only when finding the user have huge amount from withdrawing.

So after all that BS they decided to accuse of me multi-accounting:

To be completely fair and neutral, they've uploaded their evidences to AG, and AG determined them as a solid findings. Not sure if you can do this, but if you're sure you are being the one wronged here, maybe try asking askgambler to reopen your case by providing proof that you're not multi--acc-ing and your bets are normal.

About why they're so fast in replying your last comment there --which throws the ball to your court-- and so persistent on KYC but then took days just to verify it is... well, I can only assume, and I'll keep that assumption for myself.
Yes, done, thanks. They are really moving at a snails pace / Wasting time.

This post is made in response --and in a way, act as a reply-- toward Coinbox1 edited post here



[...]

Throughout this entire thread, we discussed with Mr. holydarkness about this case for days. Initially we thought he might just want to act as an unbiased arbitrator, but later we realized that he’s been deliberately misinterpreting our statements and attempted to put words in our mouth, and he has done it for 3 times in this single thread. Fearing such misinformation techniques might mislead the audience, we decide to make these public.

I LOLed. Is this your MO? When you feel attacked and cornered, you sneak past people and edited the first post --where anyone who follows the case closely would likely missed that edit-- and twisting words? Or were you... *checking my note of borrowed words from you* just a very bad reader? Or a bad marketer, in your case. Snipping sentences and statement is not an ethical practice, darling.

Here, let me help you again, just like your previous practice on marketing campaign  on the neighboring thread. Like before, the full sentence which contain a completely different meaning than what you tried to convey to the readers will be marked in italic, with key points marked in red.

The 1st time: he asked us about a clause in our T&C.
For Coinbox1, I don't think I understand the situation correctly, so please enlighten us. First, was OP's account banned because of the reason he mentioned on the quoted email --the unfair advantage-- or because they're yet to fulfill the KYC TnC?

Second, I'll assume for now that the quoted text from OP is legit and originated from your email to them, as below,

[...]
Quote
* We determine that you are using TrustDice.win in a manner that gives you an unfair advantage, for example making bets on insight or professional knowledge about a sport gained via personal involvement or participation in the particular field of sport/esport
[...]
Were you saying that an educated guess in your sportsbetting is not allowed? Suppose I'm a retired professional soccer player who spent his time compiling data and player's statistics, then analyze them and guessed the strategy their coach will utilize based on my prior experience as a professional player, and I won. This is illegal?

We then explained it in details to him:
Suppose I'm a retired professional soccer player who spent his time compiling data and player's statistics, then analyze them and guessed the strategy their coach will utilize based on my prior experience as a professional player, and I won. This is illegal?
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here) Most definitely not. "personal involvement" here typically means
- the player himself or herself and individuals who are connected to the player and therefore have access to the internal info, or even able to influence the outcome of the game;
- personal presence on the field of play during the game;

18.1. Without restricting our ability to rely on other remedies that may be available to us, we may suspend and/or terminate your account, cancel any outstanding bets and/or confiscate any or all funds in your account at our absolute discretion if:
* We determine that you are using TrustDice.win in a manner that gives you an unfair advantage, for example making bets on insight or professional knowledge about a sport gained via personal involvement or participation in the particular field of sport or using the late bets strategy;

However this clause would most likely be triggered if you were in discussion with your old pal who is inside the team and paid him to access information that most people don't know about. The same applies if your old pal pays you to bet with his internal info. Unfortunately, crypto sports books like ours attract insider betting these days.

This is me trying to understand the situation, addressing both parties and see if I can get the feel of the situation. You gave several points of possible reason behind OP's ban, and as I am not familiar with your terms, I asked. The context of the post will be crystal clear if you didn't snip it out wherever you like.

He then claim we confirmed that OP was breaking that clause:

Thank you for the link, I've actually read and familiarize myself with them before writing my post. And although it is true that by the TnC your user are agreeing on a clause where they have to submit KYC if needed, your explanation did not exactly answered my question. But if I may infer from your seemingly deliberate vague answer, you banned their account because they had suspicious behavior --i.e. insider info-- and thus you feel you need to check their ID? Then why did your team still froze OP's account although they already offered to complete KYC?

This is simply not true. No where in our statement says it was the clause of the ban. The explanation was addresses to him for his question. Plus, in fact, we had explicitly written there that the explanation is not directly related to the case of this thread.
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here)
We didn’t understand how he could make the mistake, and thought he might be just a very bad reader.  We had to respectfully correct him:
I am afraid there is a major misunderstanding here. As I previously stated:
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here)
So when I discussed about insider info above, I was simply answering your question about the T&C clause related to insider info. Such explanation has no direct relevance to the OP's case, or any specific cases. It was just to explain the clause.

This is where I LOLed. Like, really laughed, not just snorting air out of my nose for funny things kinda way, a full blown laugh. I can't really decide if you attempting a smear campaign --which is an extremely detrimental for a trusted casino platform-- a really poor reader, or simply just childish and so hell bent on revenge --for what exactly does the revenge serves, I am clueless-- that you use everything you can to get to it, or if I may re-use my repeated terms while attending your cases, "grasping at straws".

I clearly asked, the statement in that sentence --if you didn't snip it out to work into your favor-- is preceded by "if I may infer" and followed by a question mark. It indicates a question, not a statement. Which then you explained as below, and I replied nicely; in italic, you deleted that part because it didn't work in your favor, again.

But that didn't stop him from misinterpreting things. The 2nd time was when he he claimed our Customer Support mentioning 1 clause means that’s the cause of the ban.
Ahh, I see. Yes, I'll openly admit that there is a major misunderstanding from my side. The way your team explained to OP on email suggested that their account is banned due to insider info --why else would you mention this point on email if that is not the reason or related at any degree to their account freezing-- and I take that it's far from it, then? OP's account is not suspected of insider info?

In doing this, he completely ignored that fact that our Customer Support mentioned 3 clauses in the email, which all could be the cause:
Quote
We regret to inform you that your TrustDice account has been banned and the withdrawal funds were confiscated, this decision was taken according to the following terms and conditions.
18.1. Without restricting our ability to rely on other remedies that may be available to us, we may suspend and/or terminate your account, cancel any outstanding bets and/or confiscate any or all funds in your account at our absolute discretion if:
* we determine that you are acting in a manner that is detrimental to the conduct of our business;
* We determine that you are using TrustDice.win in a manner that gives you an unfair advantage, for example making bets on insight or professional knowledge about a sport gained via personal involvement or participation in the particular field of sport/esport or using the late bets strategy;
* we suspect that you have registered, manage or direct your betting activity on multiple user accounts in an attempt to hide your betting activity, bypass our set trading limits or violate any promotion Terms and Conditions;

You omitted my reply toward this post, where I openly admit I misunderstood the case and asked you for clarification. May I point it out that we ended up on that hole of misunderstanding because you kept refusing to give information --didn't have to be specific, like I said on the sentences below it, here?

The 3rd time was when he accused us of not providing reasons for the ban:
I'm not threatening you here, just giving a simple words from my observation, but by refusing to specify the reason like this, you actually cast an impression that you're the one being wrong here. Anyone reading this case would probably think like me, that if you have nothing to hide and sure that OP is an abuser, you'll be more than happy to provide --at the very least-- the reason why they're being banned. They offered you to complete KYC and you --unless you have an evidence that OP's claim and screenshot is not true-- banned them instead, and then just after the situation escalated to this forum you asked for KYC. If you ask me, it's kinda looks fishy. Lest it be too late and a flag raised and stir a lot of unnecessary inconvenience like the other case OP had in the past.

But we clearly did, and that was even directly addressed to Mr.holydarkness himself. Yet he chose to ignore it and makes false accusations:
Have you studied OP's account closely and have solid proof before freezing it or were you just ban-first-ask-later?
Prior to the ban, our Risk Management team have found substantial abnormalities surrounding the OP's account and other suspicious behaviors.

No, you did not give a clear reason behind OP's ban. You kept insisting that OP had to do KYC before you can give that piece of information out, disregarding that OP had already offered to provide KYC far before this situation escalated, which you replied by instantly banning them. OP offered to complete KYC the second time, and you ignored their question.

As the nature of this conversation gets increasing non-factual, we decide to cease engaging in this thread because this kind of conversion doesn’t align with our company policies.


With regard to the OP's accusation, as both party agreed, an AskGambler ticket was opened in case anyone wants to follow this up.


Thank you.
TrustDice Team

My statements, questions, and assumptions are based on facts given at the point of the situation, so I think the nature of the conversation is rather factual. You know what's even more factual? This:

Hey OP, Poika5, so this is how dispute usually works in so many platform, so it's just a matter of fact. The platform usually gives certain amount of time for each party to respond and provide comments or evidences against the opposing party. In AG, they gave 100 hours --if I'm not wrong-- I know that basically you're waiting for TD to verify your KYC and there's nothing that you can do until then. But since the last comment was from TD's side, the ball is in your court. As this post was made,  you have less than 25 hours to say something or the case will probably marked as clear by the system --and yes, this is my way to tell that I'm following the development of the case closely and daily, even after it moved platform.

So you might want to say something, anything, to put the ball back in TD's court.

About why they're so fast in replying your last comment there --which throws the ball to your court-- and so persistent on KYC but then took days just to verify it is... well, I can only assume, and I'll keep that assumption for myself.

I would like to talk about Trustpilot reviews.
[..]
Looks like they are buying fake reviews, and using their high TrustPilot score as a marketing tool.

That's because TrustPilot is not exactly a pilot of trust --yeah, lame pun, I know-- in a sense that you need to take them with a teaspoon of salt. They have a paid membership where the paying companies can utilize several "marketing tools" to "tweak" their ratings and revoke reviews, not to mention --as you said-- incentivizing user to leave fake reviews.

Going back to your case that's being discussed --and that I've been following-- on AG, though, I think you forgot to attach a screenshot or something that you intended to give to show that you've submitted your KYC.

(This picture is from their homepage)

https://www.trustpilot.com/review/trustdice.win
How does Trust Dice have 1793 reviews on Trustpilot? They got their first review back in 2020 march, and since then they been getting 1.76 reviews per day? Thats laughable, they are getting more reviews than the biggest Casinos in the world like Bet365.

Sportsbet.io - 194 reviews
Roobet - 891 reviews
Bitsler - 216 reviews

Now the funniest thing, all the fake 5 star reviews came from people who somehow live in the US.

Yes, I have, and although I wanted to comment on one or two things that I found on their replies, I saw that Pmalek is already present there. They're more than capable to help us see the outcome of your case, which is why I refrained from commenting there.
I just noticed you mentioned me here. Always feel free to share your thoughts. 4 eyes are better than 2. One person can see something the others don't. I haven't looked at Poika5's case. It's really time-consuming reading and trying to concentrate on all these different threads at the same time. And I see this one is already 3 pages long. Maybe I will get to it later. Judging from the few posts I have read from Poika5 in Laki21000's scam accusation thread, he seems to know what he is talking about and might be able to work out a satisfactory solution if he keeps that up.

Or every other threads, they're handled in similar fashion where --as said above-- you asked for their account details and then informing us why'd they got banned. So why is this case different?

We did not treat this one differently from the other cases. Most of the other cases completed the KYC before they found this forum so the biggest difference is that the OP here never finished the KYC. OP's refusal to KYC prevents us from concluding whether or not this was abuse, and from fully examining how the abuse was done. As the OP continues to make excuses to avoid KYC, we suspect the real reason is not what he said it was. It could be a deliberate smart move.

We have seen abusers buying fake KYC or paid KYC and it takes time to find the right KYC vendor. And when that's needed, buying time could be necessary.

Sorry that I have to not spend more hours on this single thread. We look forward to resolving our differences on AskGambler, as 2 sides both agreed.

Thank you and we will remain committed to open, transparent and meaningful communication with the Bitcointalk community.

I'll quote myself for reference of my insight on OP's offer for KYC at the very beginning of the issue --i.e. during live chat with your agent--,

[...]
I'm not saying OP is right and you're scamming them, there's even a possibility that they're a multi-acc abuser and the KYC they offered is a bluff, or fake ones. [...]

by it, I mean as in OP actually didn't want to do KYC, so they did a reverse psychology where they offered it in hope that your team will said it isn't necessary, or if your team agreed on the offer, they already had a fake KYC prepared.

But for that very same reason I can't agree on the rest of your post about they're trying to buy time by procuring reasons to refuse KYC. I'd like to point out that they offered to perform KYC again, which you failed to address and lead to the situation where it further strengthen OP's doubt of your platform's trustworthiness and ultimately reluctant to perform KYC.

Hello Poika5,

I learned from our Compliance team that a KYC request has been sent to you. Please kindly complete the KYC procedure via email ASAP.

Thank you
TrustDice Team
1. The reason for my ban / Or A public apology from Trustdice representative.
2. Will you unban me if i finish the KYC?

Please kindly answer ASAP.


Suppose that the scenario is true where OP tried a fake KYC, if they didn't have fake KYC ready for disposal and tried to buy time, they won't try offering it right away the second time. It is quite logical to assume that they offered because they had it ready. By this basis, the idea that they tried to buy time to look for fake KYC can somewhat be eliminated.

And since we're considering a scenario where OP faked a KYC or tried to buy time, it'll only be fair if we also consider a scenario where you tried to grasping at straws by asking for KYC and will later on claimed it's fake1, thus OP account would be frozen for that reason. I'd like to point out from the neighboring thread a very nice example where you seems to try to... jump at slightest possible "straw" when the chance offered itself,

Hello everyone,

As OP has publicly admitted, he placed bets after the game ends when the outcome of the game becomes available.
Yes, I placed this bet at the end of the match

[...]

let's admit, it is not that difficult to conclude that the OP of that thread had a language barrier and tried to say something that had a different meaning, especially as they've mentioned their mothertongue is not English on their opening post --by the way, Laki21000, this is one of what I wanted to comment that I referred on my previous post-- and to have an official professional representative of a professional platform easily misunderstood the real meaning of this very simple statement, it'll be quite legit for OP to further questioning your trustworthiness... IMO.



OP, how long has it been since you contacted and submitted your situation to AskGambler? 5 days? 6? Have you got any reply from them? I can't see your case has been escalated and displayed on their page, I thought on previous email they said it's about 48-96 hours?

Did your case got dismissed or something like with CasinoGuru? Can you please update if you had any further communication with their representative?



Edit: to respond OP's reply below and add context to my paragraph above, I can see them now, it's recently posted and wasn't there a couple hours ago when I checked their page.

1Note that it is not an unlikely scenario, in a recent case I am attending --that I wont mention which-- a platform counter-accused a fake KYC amongst other things although the originality and legitimacy of the documents can be verified by CasinoGuru.

Coinbox1, a simple curiosity. So I was looking at other accusation threads addressed to you that you managed to solve on this forum, where most are proven to be a false accusation made by multi-acc abuser. On every single one of those cases though, you asked them their username so you can consult it to your database and informed them --and the forum-- of the basis for their account freezing, like this one

Hello everyone,

We discussed with our Risk Management team who have banned the OP's account due to his violation of T&C 18.1:
[...]

Simply put, we notice that the OP has been practicing "late bets strategy", [...]

Or this,

Hello everyone,

The OP replied directly to us with his account information and we reviewed the case.

After discussing with our Risk Management team, we determined, with overwhelming evidence, that OP was abusing our $25 Welcome Bonus through duplicate accounts, and matched the abuse pattern of other confirmed abusing accounts.
[...]

Or every other threads, they're handled in similar fashion where --as said above-- you asked for their account details and then informing us why'd they got banned. So why is this case different? Instead of informing us about the suspicious behavior they're being suspected for, you instead directly asking for KYC before you'll share any further info and insist on it that I practically had to "beg" for you to meet in the middle

Hello Poika5,

I learned from our Compliance team that a KYC request has been sent to you. Please kindly complete the KYC procedure via email ASAP.

True, that you finally and ultimately gave in and sticked to your old procedure by informing us the reason behind OP's case, I just can't help but being curious why OP's case is treated differently.

Hope this helps.

Coinbox1, i have a theory:

Did your Provider tell Trustdice that i was completely banned from placing any Esport bets? When i tried to place a bet it said 'Please contact the support'.
If you check my support chat history(27. September) you should see that i asked the support about it.

I think by 'impossible bets' you meant small rejected bets? These bets are the result of your Providers block/limit.

It has been 4 days since you first claimed to file complaints on AskGamblers and CasinoGuru, and you have brought up the subject numerous times in this thread, despite not actually doing it.
meanwhile i will finish my Askgambler&CasinoGurus complaints.
Good to know, i started a complaint(Askgamblers). Hopefully Trustdice will respect Askgamblers decision/judgement.

We in fact look forward to resolve our differences through a third-party arbitrator because it will allow us to confirm or deny our suspicions.

In another thread, you are encouraging another user to do, while you stay idle.

Anyone reading this case might wonder why you still haven't filed a complaint, 4 days after you first discussed it. Is there something you are trying to hide? Is there something you really don't want the arbitrator to see? Or that you are aware, given the evidence documented from your account, an arbitrator will almost certainly support our position?

Anyone reading this case might wonder why you are more interested in arguing here than doing what is supposed to be more beneficial to you? If you did nothing wrong and have nothing to hide, it really would be of your best interest to seek intervention of reputation arbitrators e.g. AskGamblers and CasinoGuru because they will likely support you, as you already implied.

We, along with anyone reading this case, are very confused.

Hi holydarkness,

I mean absolutely no disrespect, but I am afraid we have to refute some false accusation here, which I am sure you did not do deliberately.

Many replies before I have already directly answered why the OP's account was banned:
Prior to the ban, our Risk Management team have found substantial abnormalities surrounding the OP's account and other suspicious behaviors.

Perhaps I should have provided more details to prevent anyone from overlooking it. Unfortunately, such details, once shared or even vaguely suggested by an explanation, will encourage further abuse especially when the suspected abuser is actively monitoring this thread.

So let me expand on what I already have said (The details are not mentioned to avoid jeopardizing our anti-abuse detection system) :
We found OP's account had been acting in a manner that's impossible for an ordinary human player and its various signals shall be considered abnormalities for an ordinary human player. And all of such data have been well documented.

Hi holydarkness,


Please kindly understand that as per our Terms & Conditions, we are under no obligation to provide excessive details to a user who's been banned for his or her violation of the T&C. As far as we know, no such law exists in Curacao, or any other countries.

In fact, when an account got banned, providing the clauses being triggered, which is what we do, is the already much better than what a lot of other casinos do. Lots of other casinos would simply tell the player there is a T&C violation and that's it. This should be no news to you if you are a player yourself.

This is the industry's standard practice because of 2 reasons:
1. a detailed explanation will require not only manpower but also someone who is more senior and experienced, thus a significant operation cost. A casino will have to weaken its RTP/Odds to cover such cost, which in the end hurt users and ruins the business;
2. banned accounts are often abusers, and abusers abuse by looking for the hole in a casino's anti-abuse mechanism. Giving the details to banned accounts will inevitably provide needed insights to abusers, who will then further exploit based on their newly gained knowledge.

We provide T&C clauses triggered because we do care about the player's experiences, even when the player is likely an abuser. But unfortunately this is already the best we can do as a business, unless one day the majority of players start to favor a lower RTP/Odds in exchange for a detailed explanation when being banned (which don't happen for most players), and casino abusers disappear for good from the internet.

We will deeply appreciate your understanding.


Thank you.
TrustDice Team

And if you read my post carefully, you'll understand that I am not demanding you to give detailed info about why their account got banned, just the reason, mentioned in a direct and clear answer. If you read through this whole sub-boards, you'll see that there are a lot of users complaining about similar issues with other casino or exchange or other business entity. Some cases, the casino did a misjudgment and the situation solved through exchange of evidences. Some cases, the accusers actually tried to fool people and proven to be guilty after each side gave their side of story. While some other cases, the platform did dirty things, and exposed through series of questions where they can't give concrete evidences to back up their claim.

I'm not saying OP is right and you're scamming them, there's even a possibility that they're a multi-acc abuser and the KYC they offered is a bluff, or fake ones. But there's also possibilities where you misunderstood them, or cheated them.

This is why we all are here right now, to see and prove which story is actually a truth.

And about being much better than what a lot of other casinos do by providing the clauses being triggered, I'll invite you to read several threads of issues with casinos on this sub-board, there are several casinos that go to a length to solve the issues and clear their name by cooperating. Not only they specify the reason so it can be discussed and reviewed, they also gave counter-evidence to back up their claim and get to the bottom of the issue, so err... yeah, you're actually not that much better than you imagined. This one for good example and comparison.

I'm not threatening you here, just giving a simple words from my observation, but by refusing to specify the reason like this, you actually cast an impression that you're the one being wrong here. Anyone reading this case would probably think like me, that if you have nothing to hide and sure that OP is an abuser, you'll be more than happy to provide --at the very least-- the reason why they're being banned. They offered you to complete KYC and you --unless you have an evidence that OP's claim and screenshot is not true-- banned them instead, and then just after the situation escalated to this forum you asked for KYC. If you ask me, it's kinda looks fishy. Lest it be too late and a flag raised and stir a lot of unnecessary inconvenience like the other case OP had in the past.

Lots of other casinos would simply tell the player there is a T&C violation and that's it. This should be no news to you if you are a player yourself.

This is the industry's standard practice because of 2 reasons:
1. a detailed explanation will require not only manpower but also someone who is more senior and experienced, thus a significant operation cost. A casino will have to weaken its RTP/Odds to cover such cost, which in the end hurt users and ruins the business;
2. banned accounts are often abusers, and abusers abuse by looking for the hole in a casino's anti-abuse mechanism. Giving the details to banned accounts will inevitably provide needed insights to abusers, who will then further exploit based on their newly gained knowledge.

We provide T&C clauses triggered because we do care about the player's experiences, even when the player is likely an abuser. But unfortunately this is already the best we can do as a business, unless one day the majority of players start to favor a lower RTP/Odds in exchange for a detailed explanation when being banned (which don't happen for most players), and casino abusers disappear for good from the internet.

We will deeply appreciate your understanding.


Thank you.

I see that you "have money", yeah.
1. You are scammers who do not answer e-mails, do not provide clarifications and do not want to resolve the issue.
2. In my thread, you stopped responding and getting in touch, just like real scammers.
3. I gave you permission to provide my personal data to prove that I violated, however, you did not give any evidence that I was an infringer.
4. In my thread, they sent evidence that I did not make a late game, but you claimed that I bet on it, again a hoax.
   I don't know how can you behave like this? I played honestly, I trusted your casino, I bet a lot with you, but I didn’t think that this would happen to me if I knew that you behave this way .... corny don’t answer the players ... I would just didn't play you. Why didn't you write to me after manual withdrawals? "Man, we don't really like what you're doing, please withdraw the money and don't come here again", why do you need to pull to the last and wait until there is a large balance on your account to confiscate it? Only geeks do that.

Hi holydarkness,


We appreciate your questions.


you banned their account because they had suspicious behavior --i.e. insider info
I am afraid there is a major misunderstanding here. As I previously stated:
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here)
So when I discussed about insider info above, I was simply answering your question about the T&C clause related to insider info. Such explanation has no direct relevance to the OP's case, or any specific cases. It was just to explain the clause.

[...]

Ahh, I see. Yes, I'll openly admit that there is a major misunderstanding from my side. The way your team explained to OP on email suggested that their account is banned due to insider info --why else would you mention this point on email if that is not the reason or related at any degree to their account freezing-- and I take that it's far from it, then? OP's account is not suspected of insider info?

Would you elaborate more on the reason? You can't give evidences due to the backlash you received on previous case, okay, arguably understandable, but certainly a casino --or any business entity-- should inform their user the reason of the banning so their user could defend themselves with proper evidence?

From what we can take from the email, the possible reasons are (1) misconduct, (2) insider info, (3) multi-alt abuse, or (4) a breach in TnC.

I think we can safely cross reason number (2) based on your own statement, and (3) because if OP is multiacc-ing, they'll quite reluctant to do KYC instead of offering them. So, point number (1) which would need you to to explain which misconduct is it because the term is very wide, or point (4) that's even more vague and widely open for misinterpretation.

I'd like to say OP raised a good point, they've offered to willingly perform KYC and you cut their way by freezing their account instead, for no clear reason if I may add. So certainly we can agree that they reserve a good degree of caution upon who they submit their info to. So, maybe all we need right now is for you to give a good gesture and tell us why you banned them in the first place. After all, as you said yourself, you have your reputation to maintain. So I think explaining why they're banned is not only a cheap price to pay for OP to do KYC and you to maintain your reputation, but also your duty on the first place.

Prior to the ban, our Risk Management team have found substantial abnormalities surrounding the OP's account and other suspicious behaviors. However, kindly note that our updated internal policies forbid us from sharing such details in public forums, unless particularly authorized by our management and approved by the player. This is for both privacy and anti-abuse concerns. In fact, for the sake of open and transparent communication with Bitcointalk community, we had shared such details on the forum in the past, which did get us quite some compliments. However such transparency was later exploited by abusers who saw it. As a result, our marketing team has received criticism internally.
You still didnt answer the question, why did Trustdice ban me before the KYC?

We have no problem sharing such details to a 3rd party arbitrator.
Good to know, i started a complaint(Askgamblers). Hopefully Trustdice will respect Askgamblers decision/judgement.

Have you studied OP's account closely and have solid proof before freezing it or were you just ban-first-ask-later?
Prior to the ban, our Risk Management team have found substantial abnormalities surrounding the OP's account and other suspicious behaviors. This means we found OP's account had been acting in a manner that's impossible for an ordinary human player and its various signals shall be considered abnormalities for an ordinary human player. And all of such data have been well documented. (edit: longer explanation added to highlight and avoid being overlooked)
However, kindly note that our updated internal policies forbid us from sharing such details in public forums, unless particularly authorized by our management and approved by the player. This is for both privacy and anti-abuse concerns. In fact, for the sake of open and transparent communication with Bitcointalk community, we had shared such details on the forum in the past, which did get us quite some compliments.

How do we know that it is not a foul play by your platform, that you didn't just invent the situation and you won't use the same reason for other user(s) in the future?
As you may have noticed on this forum, plenty of forum members have been using our platform for a long time and have no trouble playing and withdrawing. Some of them are high level users like you, with Legendary or Hero badge. In this regard, I recommend you to post a thread on Gambling sub forum to inquire what most gamblers on this forum have experienced so far.
Truth to be told, we spend much more money doing marketing on this forum than the amount being discussed in this case. As one of the established crypto casinos, and an operator who has been in this market since 2018, we have no reason to arbitrarily ban users just because he or she wins. We have more money to make in maintaining our reputation as a reliable casino and sportsbook.
With regard to "is TrustDice legit", we have prepared a page dedicated to this question. You can also take a look at the chatroom on the right to see for yourself. And TrustDice is also pretty much the best rated crypto casino on TrustPilot.



All in all, we strongly encourage OP to complete KYC procedure as requested, otherwise there is not much we (aka the marketing department) can assist at the moment. We do our best to assist every player, but if a player refuses to assist himself, our hands are tied.


Best,

I think either
1. He genuinely doesnt know.
2. The reason is too absurd/embarrassing, and hes afraid of the negative feedback.

[...]

To be fair, actually, you are kinda agreed to submit documents for KYC purpose if they ask you for it, written on their TnC.

Hello holydarkness,

For Coinbox1, I don't think I understand the situation correctly, so please enlighten us. First, was OP's account banned because of the reason he mentioned on the quoted email --the unfair advantage-- or because they're yet to fulfill the KYC TnC?
KYC is needed in this circumstance based on our T&C

[...]
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here) Most definitely not. "personal involvement" here typically means
- the player himself or herself and individuals who are connected to the player and therefore have access to the internal info, or even able to influence the outcome of the game;
- personal presence on the field of play during the game;

18.1. Without restricting our ability to rely on other remedies that may be available to us, we may suspend and/or terminate your account, cancel any outstanding bets and/or confiscate any or all funds in your account at our absolute discretion if:
* We determine that you are using TrustDice.win in a manner that gives you an unfair advantage, for example making bets on insight or professional knowledge about a sport gained via personal involvement or participation in the particular field of sport or using the late bets strategy;


However this clause would most likely be triggered if you were in discussion with your old pal who is inside the team and paid him to access information that most people don't know about. The same applies if your old pal pays you to bet with his internal info. Unfortunately, crypto sports books like ours attract insider betting these days.

Thank you.
TrustDice Team

Thank you for the link, I've actually read and familiarize myself with them before writing my post. And although it is true that by the TnC your user are agreeing on a clause where they have to submit KYC if needed, your explanation did not exactly answered my question. But if I may infer from your seemingly deliberate vague answer, you banned their account because they had suspicious behavior --i.e. insider info-- and thus you feel you need to check their ID? Then why did your team still froze OP's account although they already offered to complete KYC?

And let's take one step backward here on the reason itself, can you provide evidences that became the basis of this suspicion? Have you studied OP's account closely and have solid proof before freezing it or were you just ban-first-ask-later? How do we know that it is not a foul play by your platform, that you didn't just invent the situation and you won't use the same reason for other user(s) in the future?

KYC is needed in this circumstance based on our T&C and it is imperative for a comprehensive evaluation of the situation. In the absence of it, I am afraid it will be impossible for us to comment on what might have happened with confidence, or provide any further assistance.

Suppose I'm a retired professional soccer player who spent his time compiling data and player's statistics, then analyze them and guessed the strategy their coach will utilize based on my prior experience as a professional player, and I won. This is illegal?

You also wrote me the reason for the blocking. So you want to say that I was born in Kaliningrad, Russia, I am 23 years old, and I am a former professional American football player? I played basketball in the NBA? I played in Euroleagues? What nonsense are you talking about? How can such a thing even come to mind? I have scoliosis 3rd degree, and the arm does not bend completely, and I am a professional NBA player? It's just laughter.

10minutes before i got banned, i asked the support if they want to finish the KYC.
Instead Trustdice decided to ban me, and ignore my emails.

MOI DRUG COINBOX. i gave you my username 10 hours ago, and i still dont know why i got banned(Clearly neither do you).

So lets make a deal, if Trustdice pays me today, i will donate all the money(0.1btc) to the Ukrainian army.
I will post the transaction hash and everything!

Also thank you for this opportunity, Im literally having the time of my life right now.

That's a good thing to do and worth a praise, but if you really deserve your win there should be no condition because you've won it fairly, you are putting Trustdice in an unfavorable decision because of the condition, so let them grant you your winning based on fairness not because there's a condition attached to it that might influence the outcome of the results after you receive your winning because you deserve then proceed to donate and you'll have our praise.
Future scammers might use this kind of condition just to force casinos to have their money coming from fraud.

Final Update 20221229:

As both party agreed, an AskGamblers ticket was opened.

Following a careful review and consideration of all the information, details and/or proof presented by both parties, AskGamblers decided to support TrustDice team's stance and declares the TrustDice team's decision has been in line with the T&C.



As of now, AskGamblers team considers this case as revolved. So do we, as OP has been confirmed to be in violation of T&C by the mutually-agreed reputable arbitrator, AskGamblers.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Bitcointalk community,

Throughout this entire thread, we discussed with Mr. holydarkness about this case for days. Initially we thought he might just want to act as an unbiased arbitrator, but later we realized that he’s been deliberately misinterpreting our statements and attempted to put words in our mouth, and he has done it for 3 times in this single thread. Fearing such misinformation techniques might mislead the audience, we decide to make these public.

The 1st time: he asked us about a clause in our T&C.
[...]
Quote
* We determine that you are using TrustDice.win in a manner that gives you an unfair advantage, for example making bets on insight or professional knowledge about a sport gained via personal involvement or participation in the particular field of sport/esport
[...]
Were you saying that an educated guess in your sportsbetting is not allowed? Suppose I'm a retired professional soccer player who spent his time compiling data and player's statistics, then analyze them and guessed the strategy their coach will utilize based on my prior experience as a professional player, and I won. This is illegal?

We then explained it in details to him:
Suppose I'm a retired professional soccer player who spent his time compiling data and player's statistics, then analyze them and guessed the strategy their coach will utilize based on my prior experience as a professional player, and I won. This is illegal?
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here) Most definitely not. "personal involvement" here typically means
- the player himself or herself and individuals who are connected to the player and therefore have access to the internal info, or even able to influence the outcome of the game;
- personal presence on the field of play during the game;

18.1. Without restricting our ability to rely on other remedies that may be available to us, we may suspend and/or terminate your account, cancel any outstanding bets and/or confiscate any or all funds in your account at our absolute discretion if:
* We determine that you are using TrustDice.win in a manner that gives you an unfair advantage, for example making bets on insight or professional knowledge about a sport gained via personal involvement or participation in the particular field of sport or using the late bets strategy;

However this clause would most likely be triggered if you were in discussion with your old pal who is inside the team and paid him to access information that most people don't know about. The same applies if your old pal pays you to bet with his internal info. Unfortunately, crypto sports books like ours attract insider betting these days.

He then claim we confirmed that OP was breaking that clause:
you banned their account because they had suspicious behavior --i.e. insider info

This is simply not true. No where in our statement says it was the clause of the ban. The explanation was addresses to him for his question. Plus, in fact, we had explicitly written there that the explanation is not directly related to the case of this thread.
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here)
We didn’t understand how he could make the mistake, and thought he might be just a very bad reader.  We had to respectfully correct him:
I am afraid there is a major misunderstanding here. As I previously stated:
(Note: This is not related to this case in discussion here)
So when I discussed about insider info above, I was simply answering your question about the T&C clause related to insider info. Such explanation has no direct relevance to the OP's case, or any specific cases. It was just to explain the clause.


But that didn't stop him from misinterpreting things. The 2nd time was when he he claimed our Customer Support mentioning 1 clause means that’s the cause of the ban.
The way your team explained to OP on email suggested that their account is banned due to insider info --why else would you mention this point on email if that is not the reason or related at any degree to their account freezing-- and I take that it's far from it, then? OP's account is not suspected of insider info?

In doing this, he completely ignored that fact that our Customer Support mentioned 3 clauses in the email, which all could be the cause:
by refusing to specify the reason like this, you actually cast an impression that you're the one being wrong here. Anyone reading this case would probably think like me, that if you have nothing to hide and sure that OP is an abuser, you'll be more than happy to provide --at the very least-- the reason why they're being banned.

But we clearly did, and that was even directly addressed to Mr.holydarkness himself. Yet he chose to ignore it and makes false accusations:
Have you studied OP's account closely and have solid proof before freezing it or were you just ban-first-ask-later?
Prior to the ban, our Risk Management team have found substantial abnormalities surrounding the OP's account and other suspicious behaviors.


As the nature of this conversation gets increasing non-factual, we decide to cease engaging in this thread because this kind of conversion doesn’t align with our company policies.


With regard to the OP's accusation, as both party agreed, an AskGambler ticket was opened in case anyone wants to follow this up.


Thank you.

PM/Chat Logs:
The problems started 5 days ago when i tried to withdraw my money, the support told me that my withdrawal was cancelled, because i didnt finish my 5x deposit rollover, which was a blatant lie. I double checked all of my bets and saw that i deposited 0.01874467BTC & had wagered 0.12296BTC(I have pictures of all my bets).


Then finally my second withdrawal went under review, and 5 days later im banned.


Additional Notes:
Got this email from Trustdice after getting banned:
Im not sure what they are exactly accusing me of, so i will answer to every point:

No, i have 1 account in Trustdice, but i also use Duelbits & Bitsler which use the same sportsprovider, never had any issues there. Also multiaccounting in Trustdice makes 0 sense, because there are so many clones(sportsbookies) w the same odds.

I have pictures of all my bets, if anybody wants to check them.
I have used over 50 bookies in my lifetime, and i have never seen anything like this before.

So @Coinbox1, please explain what exactly did i do wrong, meanwhile i will finish my Askgambler&CasinoGurus complaints.
