Granawin Casino - Сметката на играча е блокирана и средствата са задържани.

Hello,

I am opening this complaint against the Granawin casino because they are keeping my account limited/blocked and withholding my funds (which is a very important amount of money), after a misunderstanding with a document, even though I had already complied with everything required.

The demonstrable facts are as follows:

1. Previously APPROVED Documentation: As soon as the casino limited my account, I uploaded all the identity and source of funds documentation they requested. All of this documentation was reviewed and marked as APPROVED by the casino itself. I fully cooperated with the casino's KYC process by uploading the original documentation.

2. Subsequent Error and Notification: Later, there was a mix-up with the upload of a single document. Upon realizing the unintentional human error, I acted in good faith and immediately contacted Granawin support to inform them.

3. Written casino authorization: The support team responded to me by email confirming that there was no problem and expressly instructed me to upload another document to correct it.

4. Strict compliance: Following your instructions, I immediately uploaded the correct alternative document as proof of address, since you requested more than three documents.

Given that my account had already passed the approval filters and that the only error was immediately corrected with the approval of Granawin support, there is no legal or security reason for them to withhold my money. I have always been willing to comply with KYC and cooperate fully with the casino, and it is unfair that they are withholding my funds and not returning my money. Therefore, I request your assistance in having the casino reopen my account or, failing that, allow me to withdraw my funds immediately.

Attached to this complaint are the emails from the casino confirming there was no problem. Thank you very much.

Hola,

Abro esta reclamación contra el casino Granawin porque mantienen mi cuenta limitada/bloqueada y retienen mis fondos (que es una cantidad de dinero muy importante), tras un malentendido con un documento, a pesar de que yo ya había cumplido con todo lo requerido.

Los hechos demostrables son los siguientes:

1 Documentación previamente APROBADA: En cuanto el casino limitó mi cuenta, procedí a subir absolutamente toda la documentación de identidad y origen de fondos que me solicitaron. Toda esta documentación fue revisada y marcada como APROBADA por el propio casino. Siempre colaboré en todo momento con el kyc del casino subiendo la documentación original

2 Error posterior y notificación: Posteriormente, hubo una confusión con la subida de un único documento. Al percatarme del error humano e involuntario, actué de total buena fe y me puse en contacto de inmediato con el soporte de Granawin para avisarles.

3 Autorización del casino por escrito: El equipo de soporte me respondió por correo electrónico confirmándome que no había ningún problema y me indicaron expresamente que subiera otro documento para corregirlo.

4 Cumplimiento estricto: Siguiendo sus propias instrucciones, subí el documento correcto alternativo enseguida como prueba de domicilio alternativa. Puesto que me solicitaron más de 3 documentos.

Teniendo en cuenta que mi cuenta ya había pasado los filtros de aprobación y que el único error fue subsanado al momento con el visto bueno del soporte de Granawin, no existe ningún motivo legal ni de seguridad para que retengan mi dinero. Siempre me he dispuesto a cumplir con el kyc a colaborar en todo momento con el casino y es injusto que retengan mis fondos y no me devuelvan mi dinero. Por ello Solicito su ayuda para que el casino reabra mi cuenta o, en su defecto, me permita retirar mis fondos de forma inmediata.

Adjunto a esta reclamación las pruebas de los correos donde el casino me confirmaba que no había problema. Muchas gracias.

Dear Alvarito,

Thank you for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about the difficulties you’re experiencing and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. To help me fully understand the situation and assist you as quickly as possible, could you please answer a few brief questions?

• Could you please clarify which documents you have provided?
• Do I understand correctly that you uploaded an incorrect document? Can you clarify how this happened?
• When did you lose access to your casino account, please?

We will do our best to resolve this issue promptly. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Hi Kristina,

Thank you for your response and for reviewing my case.

1. Documents provided

I have provided my real ID and the verification documents associated with my account, which the casino requested and which I submitted, and which are completely official. If you provide me with an email address, I could send you all the documentation, as it exceeds the space limit.

2. Regarding the incorrect document

During the verification process, the casino requested additional proof of address. They asked for more than three documents. At that point, I had difficulty providing a valid document in my name and made the mistake of uploading an incorrect file while trying to complete the process.

However, I realized almost immediately that I had not acted correctly and, on my own initiative, I sent an email to the casino's support expressly requesting that they cancel and discard that file so that I could upload correct and legitimate documentation.

I am also attaching proof of that email I sent before any final decision by the casino.

I want to make it clear that my intention was never to commit fraud or harm the casino. In fact, I voluntarily reported the error myself and requested that it be corrected.

Furthermore, support itself responded later, telling me to upload the correct document and request the withdrawal again, which made me understand that the situation could be resolved.

Loss of access to the account

Shortly after these conversations regarding verification and withdrawal, my account was blocked for fraud and they only allow me to withdraw my last deposit, confiscating my earnings.

I remain fully willing to cooperate, verify my identity, and provide any legitimate documentation that may be necessary to resolve this situation.

I also consider it unfair that, being the actual account holder and having legitimately played with my own funds, my winnings are permanently withheld without allowing me to properly complete the verification process after having tried to correct the error immediately and transparently.

Sincerely.

Alvaro M*** C***

Hola Kristina,

Gracias por su respuesta y por revisar mi caso.

1.Documentos proporcionados

He proporcionado mi documento de identidad real y documentación de verificación asociada a mi cuenta que el casino me fue solicitando y yo presenté siendo estas totalmente oficiales. Si me facilitan una dirección de correo electrónico podría enviarles toda la documentación ya que por esta vía supera el espacio

2.Sobre el documento incorrecto

Durante el proceso de verificación, el casino me solicitó documentación adicional de domicilio. Hasta más de 3 me solicitaron. En ese momento tuve dificultades para aportar un documento válido a mi nombre y cometí el error de subir un archivo incorrecto intentando completar el proceso.

Sin embargo, prácticamente de inmediato fui consciente de que no había actuado correctamente y, por iniciativa propia, envié un correo al soporte del casino solicitando expresamente que anularan y descartaran ese archivo para poder subir documentación correcta y legítima.

Adjunto además prueba de ese correo enviado por mí antes de cualquier resolución definitiva por parte del casino.

Quiero dejar claro que mi intención nunca fue cometer fraude ni perjudicar al casino. De hecho, fui yo mismo quien informó voluntariamente del error y solicité corregirlo.

Además, el propio soporte respondió posteriormente indicándome que subiera el documento correcto y solicitara nuevamente la retirada, lo que me hizo entender que la situación podía solucionarse.

Pérdida de acceso a la cuenta

Poco después de estas conversaciones relacionadas con la verificación y el retiro, mi cuenta fue bloqueada por fraude y solo me dejan retirar mi último depósito, confiscándome mis ganancias.

Sigo totalmente dispuesto a colaborar, verificar mi identidad y aportar cualquier documentación legítima que sea necesaria para resolver esta situación.

Considero además injusto que, siendo el titular real de la cuenta y habiendo jugado legítimamente con mis propios fondos, se retengan permanentemente mis ganancias sin permitirme completar correctamente el proceso de verificación tras haber intentado corregir el error de forma inmediata y transparente.

Atentamente.

Alvaro M*** C***

Thank you very much for your reply, Alvarito. Could you please forward all relevant correspondence between you and the casino to [email protected]? I understand this may take time, so I appreciate your assistance.

Good evening Kristina

I want to confirm that I already sent you all the relevant correspondence between the casino and me by email a few days ago, as you requested.

Thank you very much for your help and attention.

Sincerely

Álvaro M***

Buenas noches Kristina

Quiero confirmar que ya le envié hace unos días por correo electrónico toda la correspondencia relevante entre el casino y yo, tal y como me solicitó.

Muchas gracias por su ayuda y atención.

Atentamente

Dear Alvarito,

It’s nice to e-meet you. My name is Samuel, and I’ll be assisting you with your complaint from now on.

If there are any updates or new details since your last message, please share them with me.

As part of our standard procedure, I’m also inviting a representative from Granawin Casino to join this conversation. Their input should help us move the case forward more efficiently.

Dear Granawin Casino,

Please provide detailed information regarding the player’s issue. In particular, we would like clarification on the exact reasons why the account was closed and the winnings were confiscated, including any alleged rule violations and the applicable Terms & Conditions. According to the player, the incorrect personal details were entered unintentionally, and the correct information was provided during the verification process. We would therefore appreciate any relevant evidence or internal records supporting the decision to confiscate the funds.

Thank you for your cooperation and a timely response.

Best regards,

Samuel

I am at your disposal to collaborate in any way necessary and help clarify the facts as quickly as possible.

Thank you so much for your help and for following up on my case.

All the best.

No obstante, si consideras que puede ser útil para la investigación, estaré encantado de proporcionar cualquier documentación, captura de pantalla, correo electrónico o información adicional que necesites.

Quedo a vuestra disposición para colaborar en todo lo necesario y ayudar a esclarecer los hechos de la forma más rápida posible.

Muchas gracias por vuestra ayuda y por el seguimiento de mi caso.

Un saludo.

Hello, we will investigate this case and give an update as soon as possible.

We verified that the fund are still available on user's balance, and no withdrawal was requested.

@Alvarito, Could you clarify your current situation? Are you unable to request a withdrawal?

Hello everyone,

I want to clarify what the casino representative said in the image.png because it's not true. The problem isn't that I didn't want to request a withdrawal; the problem is that all my attempts were rejected, and then they took my money.

As you can clearly see in my transaction history (image_2.png), I tried to withdraw the €1046.72 several times, and the casino rejected all my withdrawals (they all appear as "REJECTED"). Right after that, they charged me a "BALANCE CORRECTION" of -€778.36 out of the blue, wiping out almost all my winnings and leaving my account at zero.

So it's a lie that the money is still available for me to withdraw. The casino has confiscated my winnings directly from my account. That's why I'm requesting that all my money (€1046.72) be returned to me so I can withdraw it.

Thank you so much.

Álvaro M*** C***

Hola a todos,

Quiero aclarar lo que dice el representante del casino en image.png porque no es verdad. El problema no es que yo no haya querido solicitar un retiro; el problema es que me han rechazado todos los intentos y después me han quitado el dinero.

Como se ve perfectamente en mi historial en image_2.png, intenté retirar los 1046.72 EUR varias veces y el casino me rechazó todos los retiros (salen todos como "RECHAZADA"). Justo después de eso, me metieron una "CORRECCIÓN DE SALDO" de -778.36 EUR por la cara, quitándome casi todas mis ganancias y dejándome la cuenta a cero.

Así que es mentira que el dinero siga ahí disponible para que yo lo retire. El casino me ha confiscado las ganancias directamente de la cuenta. Por eso solicito que se me devuelva todo mi dinero (los 1046.72 EUR) para poder sacarlo.

Muchas gracias.

Álvaro M*** C***

Hello everyone,

thank you for the updates.

Dear Alvarito,

thank you for the additional clarification and for providing the screenshots. I can see from the transaction history that several withdrawal requests were rejected and that a "BALANCE CORRECTION" entry was subsequently applied to your account. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.

Dear Granawin Casino,

thank you for joining the complaint and for your cooperation so far. However, based on the player's latest explanation and the screenshots provided, it appears that the main issue is not simply the inability to submit a withdrawal request, but rather the fact that the player's balance was reduced following the rejected withdrawals.

Could you please clarify:

• why the player's withdrawal requests were rejected,
• what exactly the "BALANCE CORRECTION" transaction represents,
• and on what grounds the player's winnings were deducted from the account?

If this action was taken due to a breach of your Terms & Conditions, I would appreciate it if you could specify the relevant rule and provide any supporting evidence or internal records that justify the deduction.

Thank you both for your cooperation. I will wait for the casino's clarification before proceeding further with the assessment of this complaint.

Hello, Samuel:

Thank you very much for your intervention and for forwarding the correct questions to Granawin. While we await their response, I would like to clarify a few key points regarding my case:

Regarding the rejected withdrawals: I want to emphasize that the rejections were not due to any error on my part, nor was it because I sent incorrect or erroneous documentation. I cooperated fully, sending every piece of evidence they requested. The real reason for the rejections is that the casino was stuck in a continuous loop: it would validate one document, then ask for a new one, and in the meantime, systematically reject the withdrawal request.

Regarding the "Balance Correction": I consider this measure an unjustified withholding of my legitimate earnings. I do not understand on what legal or contractual grounds they are confiscating my money, as I have not violated any rules. I consider it an arbitrary action to avoid paying me.

Availability of evidence: I would like to add that I have saved all emails, conversations with casino support, and all the documentation I have sent them throughout this process. Absolutely all documents are legitimate and original. If you need me to resend them or provide copies of these interactions to demonstrate this verification process, please do not hesitate to ask; I am at your complete disposal.

I await to see what arguments or alleged "evidence" the casino presents, since I have acted with complete transparency and good faith.

Thank you again for your help.

Hola, Samuel:

Muchas gracias por la intervención y por trasladar las preguntas correctas a Granawin. Mientras esperamos su respuesta, me gustaría dejar claros algunos puntos fundamentales sobre mi caso:

 Sobre los retiros rechazados: Quiero recalcar que los rechazos no se debieron a un error por mi parte ni a que enviara documentación incorrecta o errónea. Yo he colaborado en todo momento enviando cada prueba que me solicitaban. El motivo real de los rechazos es que el casino entraba en un bucle continuo: validaba un documento, me pedía uno nuevo y, mientras tanto, rechazaba la solicitud de retiro de forma sistemática.

 Sobre la "Corrección de Saldo": Considero que esta medida es una retención injustificada de mis ganancias legítimas. No entiendo bajo qué fundamento legal o contractual se basan para confiscar mi dinero, ya que no he incumplido ninguna norma. Considero que es una acción arbitraria para evitar pagarme.

 Disponibilidad de pruebas: Quiero añadir que tengo guardados todos los correos electrónicos, las conversaciones con el soporte del casino y toda la documentación que les he ido enviando a lo largo de este proceso. Absolutamente todos los documentos son legítimos y originales. Si necesitas que te los vuelva a enviar o que te aporte copias de estas interacciones para demostrar este bucle de verificación, no dudes en solicitármelas, estoy a tu total disposición.

Quedo a la espera de ver qué argumentos o supuestas "pruebas" presenta el casino, ya que he actuado con total transparencia y buena fe.

Muchas gracias de nuevo por la ayuda.

Dear Alvarito, our investigation concluded that the balance remains on your account. You need to request a withdrawal. Could you please try once more and let us know the result?

The casino representative isn't telling the whole truth. He says my balance is still in the account and that I should request a withdrawal, but what he's not saying is that they've taken all my winnings, completely violating my status as a casino player, since I always sent all the original requested documentation, as I showed in the emails I sent to his colleague Kristina.

As you can see in the attached screenshot of my transactions, I tried to withdraw my real balance of €1046.72, and the casino canceled it twice. After that, they performed a "Balance Correction" and deducted €778.36 without my knowledge.

Right now they've only left €268.36 in the account, which is exactly the amount of my first deposit.

Obviously, I'm not going to request any withdrawals right now. If I only withdraw my deposit, the casino will consider the problem resolved, and I'll lose the money I've won.

What I'm asking Casino Guru is to inquire with the casino why they deducted €778.36 from my account. I demand that they return my full balance of €1046.72 so I can withdraw it all at once, which is the money I'm entitled to.

I've attached a photo of the history where you can clearly see what they've done.

El representante del casino no está diciendo toda la verdad. Dice que mi saldo sigue en la cuenta y que pida un retiro, pero lo que no dice es que me han quitado todas mis ganancias de forma que vulnera totalmente mi condición como jugador del casino ya que yo siempre envié toda la documentación solicitada original tal y como se lo mostré en los correos que envié a su compañera Kristina por correo.

Como podéis ver en la captura de pantalla que adjunto con mis transacciones: yo intenté retirar mi saldo real de 1046,72 € y el casino me lo canceló dos veces. Después de eso, me hicieron una "Corrección de saldo" y me restaron 778,36 € por las buenas.

Ahora mismo solo me han dejado 268,36 € en la cuenta, que es exactamente el dinero de mi primer depósito.

Obviamente no voy a pedir ningún retiro ahora mismo. Si saco solo mi depósito, el casino dará el problema por resuelto y me quedaré sin el dinero que he ganado.

Lo que pido a Casino Guru es que le pregunten al casino por qué me han quitado esos 778,36 € de mi cuenta. Exijo que me devuelvan mi saldo completo de 1046,72 € para poder retirarlo todo junto, que es el dinero que me corresponde.

Adjunto la foto del historial donde se ve perfectamente lo que han hecho.

Dear Alvarito, in that case, we will specifically investigate about the amount deduction you mentioned. We appreciate your patience to wait a little bit more until our investigation on this speficially mater is complete.

Hello everyone,

thank you for the updates.

Dear Granawin Casino,

thank you for your response and for agreeing to investigate the balance deduction in more detail. I appreciate your willingness to look into this specific issue.

As the player's main concern is the deduction of €778.36 following the rejected withdrawal requests, I believe it is appropriate to wait for the outcome of your investigation before drawing any conclusions.

Please let us know your findings once your review has been completed, including the reason for the balance correction and any relevant information supporting it.

I will await your update.

Dear Alvarito, the deduction on your balance was due the violation of our T&C regarding duplicate accounts. We've also learned that you received an e-mail where it was promptly explained. The remaining funds, however, is on your balance and available for withdrawal.

Dear Casino Guru team and Granawin Casino representative,

I am writing to express my complete disagreement with the casino's decision to confiscate my winnings and to provide further information about my case.

I want to point out a clear contradiction in the reasons given to justify this action. I have attached screenshots that demonstrate the following:

On the one hand, the casino representative in this same thread claims that the deduction is due to an infraction for "duplicate accounts".

On the other hand, in the official email I received from the security department, I am generically accused of "fraud".

I categorically deny both accusations. I have never created a duplicate account on your platform nor have I committed any type of fraud. All the documentation you requested for account verification is original, truthful, and belongs solely to me.

Since I am accused of having multiple accounts, I respectfully request that Casino Guru mediators demand that Granawin Casino provide relevant and detailed technical evidence to support this serious accusation. I consider it completely unjust that my funds are being confiscated based on accusations they cannot prove.

Additionally, the casino email instructed me to withdraw the balance left in my account (equivalent to my last two deposits) before its final closure. However, I wish to officially state in this mediation that I will not be making any withdrawals at this time. I do not accept the casino's decision or the unjustified confiscation of my money, and therefore I will not make any further transactions until this situation is clarified and my entire legitimate balance is restored.

I played fairly, respecting all the Terms and Conditions, and I demand a full refund of all winnings. I am at Casino Guru's complete disposal for any clarification or additional documentation they may require. Furthermore, if necessary, I can send Samuel the complete record of my conversations with Granawin support directly to his email address for their review; I have already sent this to his colleague Kristina.

Sincerely,

Álvaro M*** C***

Estimado equipo de Casino Guru y representante de Granawin Casino,

Escribo para manifestar mi total desacuerdo con la decisión del casino de confiscar mis ganancias y para aportar más información sobre mi caso.

Quiero señalar una clara contradicción en los motivos que se me han dado para justificar esta acción. He adjuntado capturas de pantalla que demuestran lo siguiente:

Por un lado, el representante del casino en este mismo hilo afirma que la deducción se debe a una infracción por "cuentas duplicadas".

Por otro lado, en el correo electrónico oficial que recibí del departamento de seguridad, se me acusa de manera genérica de "fraude".

Niego categóricamente ambas acusaciones. Jamás he creado una cuenta duplicada en su plataforma ni he cometido ningún tipo de fraude. Toda la documentación que me solicitaron para la verificación de mi cuenta es original, verídica y pertenece únicamente a mí.

Dado que se me acusa de tener múltiples cuentas, solicito amablemente a los mediadores de Casino Guru que exijan a Granawin Casino que presente las pruebas técnicas pertinentes y detalladas que sustenten esta grave acusación. Considero completamente injusto que se confisquen mis fondos basándose en acusaciones que no pueden demostrar.

Adicionalmente, el correo del casino me indica que retire el saldo que han dejado en mi cuenta (equivalente a mis últimos dos depósitos) antes del cierre definitivo de la misma. Sin embargo, quiero dejar constancia oficial en esta mediación de que no voy a realizar ningún retiro de fondos por el momento. No acepto la resolución del casino ni la confiscación injustificada de mi dinero, por lo que no realizaré ningún movimiento hasta que se aclare esta situación y se restituya la totalidad de mi saldo legítimo.

He jugado de manera limpia, respetando todos los Términos y Condiciones, y exijo que se me devuelva todo el dinero que he ganado. Quedo a la entera disposición de Casino Guru para cualquier aclaración o documento adicional que necesiten por mi parte. Además, si es necesario, puedo enviar directamente al correo electrónico de Samuel el registro completo de las conversaciones que he mantenido con el soporte de Granawin para que puedan evaluarlas, todo esto ya se lo envié a su compañera Kristina.

Atentamente,

Álvaro M*** C***

Hello everyone,

thank you for your updates.

Dear Granawin Casino,

thank you for your clarification. However, the player disputes both the allegation of duplicate accounts and the confiscation of the winnings.

To assess this case objectively, I kindly ask you to provide more detailed information regarding the alleged duplicate account violation. In particular, please clarify:

• what led you to conclude that the player operated duplicate accounts,
• which specific provision of your Terms & Conditions was violated,
• and, if possible, provide any relevant supporting evidence or records (such as technical logs, account comparison data, or other documentation) that substantiate this conclusion.

I understand that certain information may be sensitive. If you are unable to disclose it publicly, you are welcome to provide the evidence via email for my confidential review. ([email protected])

Dear Alvarito,

thank you for your detailed explanation. I understand that you disagree with the casino's conclusions. Before I can assess whether the confiscation of your winnings was justified, I would first like to review the evidence on which the casino based its decision.

I will therefore wait for the casino's response before proceeding further with my assessment.

Hello Samuel, we've sent you an e-mail.

Hello everyone,

thank you both for your cooperation throughout this complaint.

Dear Granawin Casino,

thank you for providing the requested information and supporting documentation via email. I appreciate your cooperation.

Dear Alvarito,

I have now carefully reviewed the evidence provided by the casino, including documentation from their internal systems. As these materials contain sensitive internal information, I understand why they could not be published publicly in the complaint thread.

Based on my review of the evidence, I have concluded that the casino's decision was sufficiently supported and in line with the applicable Terms and Conditions. For this reason, I am unable to challenge the casino's actions. Although I understand that this outcome will be disappointing for you, based on the available evidence I must consider the casino's decision justified. Consequently, this complaint will now be rejected.

If you do not agree with my assessment, you may still consider escalating the matter directly to the Kahnawake Gaming Commission. You can submit a complaint through the following page:

https://gamingcommission.ca/interactive-gaming/complaints/

Alternatively, you may contact them by email at:

[email protected]

Thank you both for your cooperation throughout the investigation.

Best regards,

Samuel
