Thanks for the response, basic background of my issues:
After struggling to withdraw funds, sending multiple verification documents and getting generic/unhelpful bot responses from the live chat, I contacted Betmica via email and requested they close my account. I also requested confirmation once this had been completed.
I didn’t receive a response and my account stayed fully active a few days after my request so I decided to have another play, Betmica3 accepted six further deposits totalling approximately £1,900 from me.
I was permitted to continue gambling normally without restriction and my account balance subsequently reached approximately £2,500.
Betmica then closed my account while I was actively playing, without prior notification or confirmation by phone/email, and the balance became unavailable for withdrawal.
Betmica’s subsequent response when I challenged this, Betmica’s Security Team stated in writing:
"As we can see, your account was closed following your request to block the account, Based on this, your account was closed and all funds on your account became unavailable for withdrawal."
Betmica3 has since offered to refund only my last deposit, instead of the active balance at time of closing, or six deposits made that day.
I have repeatedly asked Betmica to explain:
The contractual or regulatory provision permitting it to retain the balance standing on my account.
The exact balance held when the account was closed.
Why my blocking/closure request was not implemented before further gambling was permitted.
Why six further deposits totalling approximately £1,900 were accepted after that request.
Why Betmica considers only the final deposit refundable, rather than explaining the treatment of all deposits and gambling activity following my closure request.
The details of its formal complaints procedure and applicable ADR provider.
I have not received any further response after a few more attempts so have decided to try the ADR route and contacted the Anjouan Gaming Authority to confirm the license details for Betmica and Win Top Ltd so I can try to identify the correct ADR provider.
