hi all
this topic is meant for 3 purposes: 1) I would like to apologize to shuffle 2) I want to warn people to not open multiple accounts at shuffle or any other casino and 3) to hopefully reach a resolution of my ongoing case.
my name is Gerardus and and I would like to explain some stuff in here about the issue I have with Shuffle for about 7 months now. I opened my first shuffle account (username donnamel) in november 2023 and I played in there for about 2 months with success (won quite a lot, mostly in nba sportsbetting) until in january 2024 I noticed that my max stakes were much lower and I could not bet my usual stakes anymore. So I withdrew the funds without problems and then took some days off. But here I made the mistake to ask my friend Felix if I could borrow his ID and play under his name on a fresh account. He said yes so I opened a 2nd account (username gamblerboy999), hoping to continue betting on sports with fresh limits. This worked for a couple days until I decided to request a withdrawal and it got rejected. I was asked to do KYC and it was provided, but then still withdrawal was disabled. I asked why and was told I was accused of multi accounting. At this point I made another mistake by not admitting it. I was scared if I admitted it they would confiscate all winnings (77mbtc) plus maybe even the deposit (100mbtc). So I denied it to them and pretended my friend was playing on his own. Then shuffle said that even though I played from a different laptop, different IP and my deposit was made from a different wallet than the one I used on my first (own) account, they recognized my betting pattern (betting on same sports and same casino games like my first account). This was true but since I felt it was too thin of proof and still scared they would confiscate all my funds, I kept denying. This lasted on for about 6 weeks with emails back and forth and I also made the mistake to open a complaint in Casino Guru (
https://casinoguru-en.com/shuffle-casino-player-s-withdrawal-blocked-due-to). Then on 15th march my balance was reset from 177mbtc to 111mbtc and I was told all sports betting winnings were confiscated because of the multi accounting and only the deposit (100mbtc) and casino winnings (11mbtc) were left in my account. I understood this and accepted it.
https://i.postimg.cc/GpwPg3GC/20240903-235845.jpgOn march 18th I agreed with shuffle that if I retracted my Casino Guru topic and posted an apology I would be able to withdraw my remaining 111mbtc balance and the situation would be solved.

https://i.postimg.cc/nrCQcNB2/20240904-001610.jpgI thought it would be over now but the withdrawal button was still disabled and nothing happened for 2 more weeks. So I sent another email asking when I could withdraw and this was the response: "This matter is being reviewed. We hope to have a result in line with our terms of service as soon as possible, and we thank you for your honesty in this matter regarding your multi accounting and fraudulent behavior."
https://i.postimg.cc/DwVbnjZQ/20240904-002632.jpgI kept waiting but the withdrawal button kept disabled and from time to time I asked for updates. At the end of may it turned out they still were not satisfied with the apology and demanded a more detailed one per email, so I gave this to them also.

https://i.postimg.cc/pT1p7k4F/20240904-003719.jpgThen I waited 3 more months. I figured they were mad at me for stalling in the first 6 weeks so they wanted to "pay me back" by letting me wait extra long. I understood that and patiently waited all summer long. A week ago shuffle said "you have yet to comply with our simple requests regarding the proceeds of fraud that you have obtained. We kindly ask for you to rectify this behaviour."
https://i.postimg.cc/CL8zPGNR/20240904-003835.jpgI really don't know anymore what shuffle still want from me, so a week ago I sent one last email with another apology:
https://i.postimg.cc/xqVTDZRc/17254051312275019720152077068138.jpgThis email however remained unanswered and my withdrawal function is still blocked. My last resort is now opening this topic to hopefully hear from a shuffle representative what they still need from me to enable the withdrawal function and end this situation. Perhaps they need me to apologize on this platform too, so here I go: shuffle, I apologize for opening my 2nd account to circumvent betting limits and not admitting it immediately. I have done wrong to deny it at first and to open the Casino Guru topic. But after this initial phase I have improved my behaviour and did all you asked of me. Please enable my withdrawal function or tell me what you still need.
Thanks for the attention.
