Sportuna Casino - Η ανάληψη του παίκτη έχει καθυστερήσει και ο λογαριασμός έχει μπλοκαριστεί.

I accumulated a large sum of money in my Sportuna account through sports betting and requested a withdrawal on November 14th. At that moment, my access to the account was blocked without any explanation, with the explanation that it was under review.

After a week without any contact or information, I started sending emails, in which they explained that they were experiencing an unexpected delay. It wasn't until December 6th (20 days later) that they requested documents for verification.

When I sent them, they told me I had to resend the documents, without giving any reason for rejecting the ones I had previously sent. On December 15th, I still hadn't heard anything, and I complained, since their website stated that withdrawals were processed within 3 business days. When I emailed them, they told me that as of December 15th, it was still within the 3-business-day period. I sent them a screenshot showing that I had requested the withdrawal on November 14th, and they were still saying they were within the deadline.

After this period of days during which they said they were within the deadline, they started telling me I had to upload the documents to the verification section in my profile, when they WON'T LET ME ACCESS MY PROFILE. Unbelievable.

I kept sending the documents by email, and they still didn't respond when I did.

After that, all their emails consisted of saying that they had forwarded the information to the relevant department, but that never ended with any new information for me.

After this, they started asking me for the same documents again and again, and although I sent them many times, they never responded by accepting them.

Since the beginning of January, they started asking me for patience again, indicating that everything was being reviewed by the relevant department, and since January 15th they have not responded to me.

I don't know what else to do. I haven't done anything illegal. My account is mine, with my data. I've given them everything they've asked for, and they keep creating problems.

I hope that with your help the issue can be resolved.

Thank you so much

Acumulé mucho dinero en Sportuna mediante apuestas deportivas y solicité una retirada el 14 de noviembre. En ese instante, bloquearon mi acceso a la cuenta sin ningún motivo, argumentando que se encontraba en revisión.

Tras una semana sin ponerse nadie en contacto conmigo ni ninguna información, comencé a enviar correos, en los que me argumentaban que sufrían un retraso inesperado. No fue hasta el 6 de diciembre (20 días más tarde), cuando me solicitaron documentos para la verificación.

Cuando los envié, me dijeron que debía volver a enviar documentos, sin ningún motivo para rechazar los enviados anteriormente. El 15 de diciembre seguía sin saber nada, y me quejé, puesto que en su página decían que las retiradas las gestionaban en 3 días hábiles. Cuando les envié un correo, me dijeron que se encontraba a fecha 15 de diciembre dentro de los 3 días hábiles, les pase una captura de pantalla en la que se veía que solicité la retirada el 14 de noviembre y seguían diciendo que estaban en plazo....

Tras este período de días en el que decían que estaban en plazo, comenzaron a decirme que debía subir los documentos al apartado de verificación dentro de mi perfil, cuando NO ME DEJAN ACCEDER A MI PERFIL. Increíble.

Volvía a enviar los documentos por correo electrónico, y seguían sin responder cuando lo hacía.

Posteriormente, todos sus correos consistían en decir que habían remitido la información al departamento correspondiente, pero eso nunca terminaba con nueva información para mí.

Tras esto, comenzaron a volver a pedirme siempre los mismos documentos, y aunque se los envié muchas veces, nunca respondieron aceptándolos.

Desde principios de enero, comenzaron a pedirme paciencia de nuevo, indicando que estaba siendo todo revisado por el departamento correspondiente, y desde el 15 de enero no me responden.

Ya no sé qué más hacer, no he hecho nada ilegal, mi cuenta es mía, con mis datos, he entregado todo lo que me piden, y no paran de poner problemas.

Espero que con vuestra ayuda pueda solucionarse el tema.

Muchas gracias

Dear Alejandr12345,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. Please allow me to ask you some questions, so I can better understand the situation.

Which documents were approved and which were not, to your knowledge?

Has the casino indicated that there might be a problem with approving specific documents?

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply. 

Best regards, 

Attila

Thank you for trying to help me.

The latest documents that have caused me problems are the transaction history of my bank account, and the photo of me holding my ID card with a monitor with its page open behind me.

With the transactions, they're asking me for a document showing my income and expenses for a specific month, and that the document includes my credit card number. I've explained to them several times that the credit card is only for expenses, not income, so it's useless for what they're asking for. If they want to see my income and expenses, my bank statement needs to show my IBAN.

After explaining that to them, I sent them a screenshot of my banking app, which shows that my card is linked to my account number (IBAN), the statement of expenses for that period they requested, which shows the casino deposits made with my credit card number, and my bank statement for that month, which shows my income and expenses and also includes my account number (IBAN). I believe these documents more than prove that the account is mine and belongs to me; I don't know why they're making such a fuss.

Later, regarding the photo issue (which is silly), I've always placed bets from my mobile phone. When I tried to access the casino's website on my computer, it wouldn't let me in, I don't know why. It says access is restricted in my country, but I can access it without any problem on my phone. I've never used a VPN or anything, nor have I tried to hide my location. Since I can't access their website from my computer, I accessed it from a tablet I have, and I sent the image to the TV, and everything works perfectly.

I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. I might not have a computer at home, and how would I take the photo? Besides, what difference does that photo make? I've already uploaded photos of myself with my ID. I could upload a photo of myself with my ID from my phone on the website, but they'd tell me it has to be a monitor.

Those are the latest problems they're giving me.

They didn't specifically tell me there was a problem, but when I asked, they kept telling me to resend those specific documents. Finally, they told me to be patient, that it was being reviewed by the relevant department.

The last response I received was on January 18th.

I should also mention that I still can't access my account.

Thank you for your interest, and I look forward to your reply. Best regards

Gracias a vosotros por intentar ayudarme.

Los últimos documentos con los que me han puesto problemas son con el historial de transacciones de mi cuenta bancaria, y con la foto sosteniendo mi DNI y con un monitor con su página abierta detrás mía.

Con las transacciones, me piden un documento que salgan mis ingresos y gastos durante un mes concreto, y que en el documento aparezca mi número de tarjeta de crédito. Les he explicado varias veces que la tarjeta de crédito es solo para gastos, no para ingresos, por lo que no les sirve para lo que piden. Si quieren ver los ingresos y gastos, en el documento de mi banco tiene que aparecer mi IBAN.

Después de explicarles eso, les he enviado una captura de pantalla de mi app de banco, en la que se ve que mi tarjeta pertenece a mi número de cuenta (IBAN), el documento con mis gastos de ese periodo que me piden, en el que se ven los depósitos en el casino con mi número de tarjeta de crédito, y el documento de mi cuenta bancaria de ese mes, en el que se ven los ingresos y gastos de ese mes, y aparece mi número de cuenta (IBAN). Creo que con esos documentos queda más que demostrado que esa cuenta es mía y me pertenece, no sé por qué ponen tantos problemas.

Posteriormente, con el tema de la foto (lo cual es una tontería), yo siempre he apostado desde el móvil. Cuando fui a acceder a la pagina del casino con el ordenador, no me deja acceder, no sé por qué. Pone que está restringido el acceso en mi país, en cambio, en el móvil puedo acceder sin problema. Nunca he usado una VPN ni nada, ni he intentado ocultar mi localización. Puesto que no me deja acceder a su página desde el ordenador, accedí desde una tablet que tengo, y envié la imagen a la televisión, y se ve todo perfectamente.

No creo que esté haciendo nada mal, podría no tener ordenador en mi casa, y cómo me haría la foto? Además, que más dará esa foto? Si ya he pasado fotos mias con mi DNI. Podría pasar una foto mia con mi DNI con el móvil en la página, pero me dirían que tiene que ser un monitor.

Esos son los últimos problemas que me están poniendo.

Ellos no me han dicho específicamente que haya ningún problema, pero cuando preguntaba, me volvían a decir que volviera a enviar esos documentos en concreto. Ya por último me decían que tuviera paciencia que estaba siendo revisado por el departamento correspondiente.

La última respuesta que recibí fue el 18 de enero.

Decir también que sigo sin poder acceder a mi cuenta.

Gracias por vuestro interés y espero vuestra respuesta. Un saludo

Hello, good afternoon.

I received an email 2 hours ago from Sportuna, in which they tell me that they verified my account on January 23rd.

Even so, I still can't access my account; it still shows that it's being verified.

I've replied to their email again requesting access. I'll let you know when I hear anything.

Thank you

Hola buenas tardes.

Me ha llegado un correo hace 2 horas de sportuna, en el que me comentan que me verificaron el día 23 de enero la cuenta.

Aún así, sigo sin poder acceder a mi cuenta, sigue apareciendo que está en verificación.

He vuelto a responderles al correo solicitando acceso. Cuando sepa algo os contaré.

Gracias

Today I received another email after requesting access to my account, stating that, by decision of the administrators, I cannot make any withdrawals at the moment, without any further explanation.

What do they want to do, keep my money just because? For no reason?

Incredible

Hoy me han vuelto a mandar un correo tras solicitar acceso a mi cuenta, que dice que por decisión de los administradores, no puedo hacer ninguna retirada por el momento, sin ninguna otra explicación.

Qué quieren hacer, quedarse con mi dinero porque si? Sin motivo?

Increíble

Dear Alejandr12345, Thank you for your response. Could you please clarify whether the casino has mentioned that the limitation on accessing your account is due to your play from a restricted country? Additionally, could you kindly confirm if you have uploaded the requested photo to the casino?

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Hello good

The casino does not have in its terms and conditions that my country (Spain) is restricted.

In fact, I have never hidden my country or used a VPN or anything similar.

My account was restricted right when I requested the withdrawal, not before. They haven't given me any reason for restricting my access in any of the emails; they've only slowed down my verification process.

In the last photo I sent you, they only tell me that they cannot process the withdrawal, without any reason.

I already took the photo and sent it, and according to them, I'm verified.

Buenas

El casino no tiene en sus términos y condiciones que mi país (España) esté restringido.

De hecho, nunca he ocultado mi país ni he usado vpn ni nada similar.

La restricción a mi cuenta se realizó justo cuando solicité la retirada, no anteriormente. En ningún correo me han mencionado ningún motivo para restringirme el acceso, solo han enlentecido mi verificación.

En la última foto que os he mandado me dicen solamente que no me pueden realizar la retirada, sin ningún motivo.

Ya realice la foto y la envié, y estoy verificado según ellos

Dear Alejandr12345,

Please note that if the matter becomes solely related to sports betting, we regret to inform you that we won't be able to assist you as we do not have a department handling such issues.

Good afternoon.

First, I want to clarify that all my profits came from sports betting. In that case, you won't be able to help me? Thank you for clarifying.

On the other hand, they confirmed that I'm verified and that I should be able to access my account without any problems, but I still can't. I sent them a video and told them that if I still can't access it, they should at least confirm how much money I have in the account and process a withdrawal. That's why I also sent them the account ownership certificate.

I will keep you informed.

Thank you

Buenas tardes.

Lo primero, quiero aclarar que todos mis beneficios fueron de apuestas deportivas. En ese caso, no podréis ayudarme? Gracias por aclararlo

Por otra parte, me confirmaron que estoy verificado, y que debo poder acceder a mi cuenta sin problema, pero sigo sin poder acceder. Les he enviado un vídeo, y les he dicho que, en caso de que siga sin poder acceder, que al menos me confirmen cuánto dinero tengo en la cuenta y que me realicen una retirada de mi dinero. Por ello les he enviado también el certificado de titularidad.

Les seguiré informando.

Gracias

I requested my withdrawal on November 14th. Since then, it's been like this: me requesting my money, and them delaying all the procedures. They reply after a week, and when they do, they don't say anything.

I don't think this is normal in a "serious" casino.

Solicité mi retirada el 14 de noviembre. Desde entonces estamos así, yo solicitando mi dinero, y ellos retrasando todos los trámites. Contestan a la semana, y cuando contestan no dicen nada.

No creo que esto sea algo normal en un casino "serio"

Dear Sportuna Casino Team,

Thank you for the update.

Please continue to keep us informed regarding any developments in this case. I would also appreciate it if you could raise the priority of this complaint so that it can be resolved as quickly as possible, as the player has been waiting a considerable amount of time for his withdrawal.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Dear Lucia,

Thank you for your follow-up regarding the player's withdrawal.

Please be advised that our Finance Team is currently still in the process of finalizing this manual withdrawal. Due to the nature of this specific transaction, it requires additional manual verification and handling outside of our automated systems.

We appreciate the player's patience while we complete these final steps. We will provide a further update as soon as the funds have been successfully dispatched.

Best regards,

Sportuna Casino Team.

Dear Alejandr12345,

We are pleased to inform you that the withdrawal request has been successfully processed.

The funds may take 3 to 5 working days to appear in your account, depending on the payment method used and your bank’s processing times.

Kind Regards,

Sportuna Casino Team.

Dear Sportuna Casino representative,

thank you very much for the update. I will leave this complaint open until Alejandr12345 confirms his withdrawals have been paid out.

Hello, good afternoon.

I just received the money.

I wanted to thank Casino Guru, because I know this wouldn't have been possible without you. My money has been held since November and they weren't doing anything to return it.

Thank you very much, and I hope you lower the rating that Sportuna has on your page, as it is not very accurate.

All the best

Hola buenas tardes.

Acabo de recibir el dinero.

Quería daros las gracias a casino guru, porque se que sin vosotros no hubiera sido posible. Llevo desde noviembre con mi dinero retenido y no hacían nada por devolvermelo.

Muchas gracias, y espero que bajeis la puntuación que tiene sportuna en vuestra página, puesto que no es muy real.

Un saludo
