Not to be too patronising but I imagine all low value withdrawals. Only experience I have had with withdrawals was a £25K withdrawal from casumo from 7K stake. I didn’t even place the bet and I got arrested for money laundering. Casinos will stop at nothing to avoid paying a bet….
woah there buddy you cant just throw “got arrested for money laundering” and not expect me to ask you to tell me the whole story. if you don’t mind.

14th November 2019 at 7:34 pm #83265Real shame because it’s of interest to everyone within the community and because it has criticism of a casino it’s likely not to be approved.
14th November 2019 at 9:30 pm #83259This could take a while…. but essentially my Dad sometimes plays high stakes slots had a real big win around March of this year. £25K plus with Casumo. They asked for source of wealth and he provided proof of earnings upwards of £500,000 with house sales and private pensions etc it wasn’t enough for them they so he asked to escalate to their ADR as he knew the bet was placed legitimately. Now fast forward a few weeks and Casumo reported him to the bank presumably to welch out of paying out. The bank froze every bank account within the family without warning to perform a SAR (suspicious activity report) as if it hadn’t gone far enough they then escalated this to the national crime agency. Then on the 10th June while my Dad was out of the Country 15 armed police along with Forensic investigators arrested me and interviewed my wife under caution. During the interview it turns out that a business associate of mine (I’m in the surplus printer cartridge industry) was convicted of Supply of class A and is now serving a lengthy sentence, rightly so. The kicker is that the police have accused the family of laundering money from a legitimate business that has no restrictions. Essentially the money from that business has been proved to be completely legitimate. Even more laughable is that a few days after my arrest Casumo agreed to pay out on the bet. All the while me and my Family still have frozen bank accounts and have to walk in the bank every week to request the crown prosecution to unfreeze our account to withdraw £250 a week living expenses. Both my Dad and my customers for our business have been contacted and told we are dangerous criminals with no evidence to back that up. If this is not a warning to others that innocent people can lose nearly everything from a completely legal activity – gambling. Be careful out there folks
14th November 2019 at 9:31 pm #83251It doesn’t shock me that the casinos pay out your £70 withdrawals with little fuss. I think it’s fairly common knowledge that a decent proportion of casinos profits are from non payouts. Easy to take £100K from problem gamblers and then cut them off with ambiguous wealth checks etc. It’s not something your like to experience however
14th November 2019 at 9:33 pm #83275I don’t spend every minute of the day looking on the forum mate i dunno why your post got put through to my pending area but there is nothing wrong with your post or your IP so i dunno.. :/
Also im going to be afk again for a while as it is gone 9:30 pm lol ill check in in a bit before sleep please understand no one here works 24 hours 7 days a week and neither do I 🙂
14th November 2019 at 10:02 pm #83278Why would a Casino want to keep small time punters happy by paying them when they actually win, but refuse to pay out money to the big spenders when they will earn a lot more income from them in the long run. You said your Dad would gamble sometimes at high stakes. So it wasn’t a one off gamble that resulted in an 18k profit. They would, ironically, pay out the big spenders quicker when they win and make VIP programs available to keep them playing and keep them happy with same day payouts… while small time punters can wait days.

This sounds pretty accurate to be fair from how the system works. HOWEVER
There will be more “connecting proof” than what you said, albeit maybe circumstantial, but AML is taking seriously as hell. Im for once glad they did this, but im also very glad you got your money. Ive had a 20k withdrawal inside of a day from casino so its 100% not to welch from paying you. This will have been a serious worry for them to do this.

How very dare you take time off. Yes we expect you to be available 24 hours a day 7 days a week. ??
15th November 2019 at 9:01 am #83297Hmmmm nit saying anything …. but for all this to happen there has to be a bigger reason to suspect you? Your not “arrested “for looking dodge your “arrested “ for being dodge, unless you were helping with their investigation…. which then would close your accounts ….Your father is the one being suspected, but you get arrested ? Your accounts locked and still locked ( I believe they can only lock for 30 days, before needing court cases ) did Your father got arrested? Many people have dodge fathers but he is his own person ….. surely they could only look at you and inconvenience your families if the accounts shared similar “trends “, and if you had a business “friend “ who got done with drugs, how did that become a thing to beat you with when they were dealing with a case against your father ? In no way am I saying this didn’t happen …. it’s just doesn’t read right ….equally are you saying the police are contacting your clients telling them your criminals, even tho your in the clear ???????
it just doesn’t read right …..
15th November 2019 at 9:04 am #83298* Which wouldn’t close your accounts
seedy this web site needs a comment editing button …….. get to it ( whip sounds )
and yes I know it would be easier for me to read and edit and learn to spell before I post ……. but I’m lazy

I’m pretty sure @spidermint has fixed the edit button, it appears at the side where it says reply/report etc for about 5 minutes after posting a comment
~~Edit, Yes it’s fixed~~
15th November 2019 at 9:53 am #83285Casumo have agreed to pay the winnings. When my entire family has a restraint order freezing all assets and bank accounts it’s now not possible. Our solicitors say there is 0 evidence of wrongdoing but still say it’s likely to go on for several years. Between Casumo, the banks and the police our treatment has been appalling. Remember for placing a bet (not criminal activity)
15th November 2019 at 10:11 am #83303How do you know it was Casumo who reported suspicion to the police, out of interest?
