Marathonbet Casino - Hráčský účet zablokován z důvodu nároku na sázkovou částku.

After placing several bets and attempting to withdraw my winnings, my account was blocked. The reason provided was that I had not used the total value of the deposit to place bets. If it's mandatory to use the entire deposited amount to place bets before making a withdrawal, why doesn't the system simply issue a notification stating this? This unnecessary action causes frustration for users.

Apos realizar algumas apostas, e tentar sacar o montante minha conta foi bloqueada com a justificativa que eu nao utilizei o valor total do depósito para realizar apostas. Se é obrigado utilizar o valor total depositado para realizar aposta antes do saque porque o sistema não gera apenas uma mensagem informando? Totalmente desnecessários atitude gerando transtornos aos usuários.

Dear andrepascoal1992,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I have checked the terms and conditions, and this is what I found (here):

If the amounts of money deposited and withdrawn do not correlate with bets or stakes being placed from an account, or Marathonbet has concerns about the way an account is being maintained, Marathonbet will always proceed with enhanced customer verification procedures before processing transactions, and Marathonbet also reserves the right to close your account. This is to ensure transactions are in accordance with the legislation of the Netherlands Antilles.

It is not unusual for a casino to have this rule. Some casinos require deposit wagering of 1x, some 3x or 5x, but you can find casinos with even higher wagering requirements for real money.

Mandatory real money wagering has been introduced by the AML (Anti-Money Laundering) Regulations for the Gaming and Gambling Industry and is usually set by the Licensing Authority. All serious and licensed casinos have to comply and follow these policies.

Please let us know if this explanation was satisfactory. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Petronela
