Royals Tiger Casino - A conta do jogador foi suspensa e os fundos retidos.

I am submitting a complaint against royalstiger.com.

I have been using this website since 16 December. After requesting a withdrawal, my account was suspended and my funds were withheld.

Key issues:

- A balance of €267.27 remains visible but unpaid.

- The bank transfer (IBAN) withdrawal option was removed after my withdrawal request.

- I was forced to use alternative methods (crypto / credit card) that were not viable for me.

- Part of my real balance was automatically converted into bonus funds without my consent.

- The website does not display any valid gaming license or regulator.

- I received written confirmation that the former Curaçao regulator ceased operations and that sublicenses expired.

The total amount deposited exceeds €3,000.

I believe this casino is operating without a valid license and is withholding player funds using abusive practices.

I am attaching screenshots showing:

- visible balance,

- account suspension,

- removal of withdrawal methods,

- automatic bonus indexing,

- lack of license information.

I request assistance to recover my funds.

Additional comments from the player:

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am submitting a formal complaint against the online gambling website royalstiger.com regarding the retention of my funds, abusive bonus practices, and lack of regulatory transparency.

### 1. Lack of license disclosure

The website does not clearly disclose any licensing authority or regulator on its pages. There is no visible reference to a gaming license, regulatory body, or license number, which already raises serious concerns regarding compliance.

### 2. Withheld funds and removal of withdrawal method

I had a positive balance of approximately €267.27 visible in my account.

Between the 24th and 26th, I requested a withdrawal. After this request:

- The bank transfer (IBAN) withdrawal option, which was previously available, was removed without explanation.

- Alternative methods such as cryptocurrencies and Skrill were imposed, despite not being available or usable by me.

- A credit card withdrawal was later demanded as the only option, even though this method is not viable for me and was never agreed as an exclusive withdrawal method.

As a result, I was left with no practical way to withdraw my funds.

### 3. Account suspension

Following my withdrawal request and repeated contacts with support, my account was suspended, while the balance remained visible. This suspension effectively prevents access to my own funds and occurred without any concrete allegation or individualized justification.

### 4. Abusive bonus indexing and misclassification of real money

In addition to the above, the operator automatically indexed multiple bonuses to my account, displaying them as "available to activate", and deducted approximately €61 from my real balance, reclassifying that amount as bonus balance.

I did not request, opt in, or actively activate these bonuses.

This means that the operator is artificially reducing the amount considered "real money" to approximately €200, while subjecting the deducted amount to bonus-related conditions. This practice converts real deposited funds into bonus funds without player consent, significantly restricting withdrawal and misleading the player.

### 5. Summary

In practice, the operator has:

- Retained real player funds;

- Removed a viable withdrawal method after a withdrawal request;

- Imposed non-viable alternatives;

- Suspended the account with funds still visible;

- Reclassified part of my real balance as bonus funds without consent;

- Failed to clearly disclose any licensing authority.

I am attaching screenshots showing:

- The visible balance;

- The account suspension;

- The removal of the IBAN withdrawal option;

- The automatic bonus indexing and balance deduction;

- Communications with support;

- The absence of licensing information on the website.

### 6. Request

I respectfully request your intervention to:

- Ensure the release of my funds;

- Assess the operator’s compliance with basic regulatory and consumer protection standards;

- Investigate the bonus practices applied to real player funds without consent.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Hi armar,

Thank you for the additional information and for the detailed explanation you provided.

I understand that there are multiple serious concerns you are raising (license, bonus practices, withdrawal methods, account suspension). However, to be able to move forward in a structured and effective way, we need to focus first on one key factual point:

The €267.27 balance

Please clarify what exactly happened to the €267.27 balance:

• Was this amount lost through gameplay after the withdrawal request, or
• Was it confiscated / removed by the casino (fully or partially), or
• Is it still visible in the account but blocked due to the suspension?

Our next steps depend entirely on whether the funds were lost by play or withheld by the casino through an action on their side.

Please reply specifically to this point, and we will continue from there.

Dear Petronela,

Thank you for your message. I would like to add an important clarification regarding the balance situation.

After my withdrawal request on 26 December 2024, the casino removed bonus funds and related balances, stating that bonuses had been applied or activated. 

As a result, my available balance was reduced, and the casino informed me that only approximately €200 would remain eligible for withdrawal.

However, despite this adjustment:

- My account was subsequently suspended,

- The remaining withdrawable balance (approx. €200) has not been paid,

- I have not been allowed to withdraw even €1 to date,

- The account remains blocked, with no clear justification or resolution timeline provided.

To be clear:

- I accepted the removal of bonuses as imposed by the casino,

- I am only requesting the withdrawal of the remaining real-money balance,

- The ongoing suspension is preventing any withdrawal, despite multiple requests.

The funds remain unpaid, and the account remains suspended without resolution.

Please let me know if you require additional screenshots or communication records to support this clarification.

Kind regards, 

Elsa

Good afternoon,

I would like to inform you that I am trying to present other solutions for them to unblock my money and they are not accepting... I need urgent resolution!!!!

Boa tarde,

informo que estou a tentar apresentar outras soluções para eles desbloquearem o meu dinheiro e não estão a aceitar… preciso de resolução urgente!!!!

Hello armar,

Thank you for your message.

You mentioned that you have proposed other solutions to the casino to unblock your funds. Could you please specify what solutions you suggested and share any relevant communication related to this?

Dear Sir

As requested, I will now clearly detail the solutions I have presented to the operator and the reason why the situation remains blocked.

1. Previously, the platform allowed withdrawals by bank transfer (IBAN).

This option existed, was functional and linked to my personal data.

At some point, this option was removed without any objective explanation.

2. Currently, only the option to withdraw by bank card is presented, which is not feasible in my case, for the following reasons:

- The card in question is not physically in my possession;

- If it has to be canceled, it automatically ceases to be a valid means of payment;

- Despite this, I am still the owner of the account, the bank details and the card itself, and can prove this ownership by any means requested.

3. I have formally requested an alternative, namely:

- Reactivation of the withdrawal by IBAN; or

- Another payment method that allows validation of my identity and ownership of the funds.

4. I have provided all the necessary documentation, including:

- Proof of identity;

- Proof of bank account ownership;

- Bank statements;

- Any other documents you consider relevant.

5. What is happening at the moment is that the funds are being effectively blocked, not due to any lack of cooperation on my part, but due to the lack of viable alternatives presented by the operator.

I reinforce that:

- My details are correct and verified;

- The bank account is mine;

- The IBAN was previously accepted;

- There is no technical or legal basis for preventing withdrawal in this way.

All I am asking for is a functional and proportional solution that allows me to withdraw the funds to which I am entitled.

I would be grateful if you could intervene to unblock this situation as soon as possible.

Best regards,

Exma. Senhora,

Conforme solicitado, passo a detalhar de forma clara as soluções que apresentei ao operador e o motivo pelo qual a situação permanece bloqueada.

1. Anteriormente, a plataforma permitia levantamentos por transferência bancária (IBAN). 

  Essa opção existia, estava funcional e associada aos meus dados pessoais. 

  Em determinado momento, essa possibilidade foi retirada sem explicação objetiva.

2. Atualmente, apenas é apresentada a opção de levantamento por cartão bancário, o que não é viável no meu caso, pelos seguintes motivos:

  - O cartão em causa não se encontra fisicamente na minha posse;

  - Caso seja necessário proceder ao seu cancelamento, deixa automaticamente de ser um meio válido;

  - Apesar disso, continuo a ser a titular da conta, dos dados bancários e do próprio cartão, podendo comprovar essa titularidade por qualquer meio solicitado.

3. Solicitei formalmente uma alternativa, nomeadamente:

  - Reativação do levantamento por IBAN; ou

  - Outro método de pagamento que permita validação da minha identidade e titularidade dos fundos.

4. Disponibilizei-me para apresentar toda a documentação necessária, incluindo:

  - Comprovativo de identidade;

  - Comprovativo de titularidade da conta bancária;

  - Extratos bancários;

  - Qualquer outro documento que considerem relevante.

5. O que está a acontecer neste momento é um bloqueio efetivo dos fundos, não por falta de colaboração da minha parte, mas pela ausência de alternativas viáveis apresentadas pelo operador.

Reforço que:

- Os meus dados estão corretos e verificados;

- A conta bancária é minha;

- O IBAN esteve anteriormente aceite;

- Não existe fundamento técnico ou legal para impedir o levantamento por essa via.

O que solicito é apenas uma solução funcional e proporcional, que permita o levantamento dos fundos a que tenho direito.

Agradeço a sua intervenção no sentido de desbloquear esta situação com a maior brevidade possível.

Com os melhores cumprimentos, 

Hello armar,

Thank you for the detailed explanation.

I would like to clarify an important point regarding the available withdrawal methods. If the casino currently offers only one payment method for withdrawals, this is unfortunately not a discretionary decision made on a case-by-case basis. The availability of payment methods is typically regulated by geolocation, payment providers, and regulatory requirements, and casinos are obliged to follow these rules.

This means that if only one withdrawal method is available for your account, the casino is generally required to process withdrawals exclusively through that method, and they are not always able to offer alternatives, even if another method was available in the past.

While we understand that this situation is inconvenient, especially if the card is no longer physically available, if that payment method remains the only option currently permitted for withdrawals, the casino may insist on using it.

Hello,

Thank you for your response.

I would like to clarify and formally address an important issue that remains unresolved.

My IBAN had previously been successfully submitted and verified on my account. At a later stage, it was removed without any prior notice or explanation. Since then, the only available withdrawal method shown in my account is a card that is no longer physically available, which makes withdrawals technically impossible.

In this context, I would appreciate clarification on the following points:

1. Why the previously verified IBAN was removed from my account.

2. On what basis this decision was taken.

3. Why I am currently unable to re-add or use that same IBAN for withdrawals.

4. How the casino intends to resolve this situation, considering that the current setup prevents any withdrawal from being made.

I fully understand that withdrawal methods are subject to regulatory and provider restrictions. However, maintaining a situation where funds are inaccessible due to the removal of a valid and previously approved payment method is not a viable or reasonable outcome.

Please note that Casino Guru has been included in BCC on this correspondence, as they are already aware of the situation and are following the case to ensure transparency and proper handling.

I remain fully available to provide any documentation required to revalidate my identity or payment method and expect guidance on how this matter can be resolved promptly and in compliance with applicable rules.

I look forward to your clarification.

Best regards, 

elsa

We would also like to invite Royals Tiger Casino to participate in this discussion.

Dear Royals Tiger Casino,

Can you please clarify why you are not able to process the payment to the player via bank transfer, as the player is requesting?

Should there be any factors influencing this matter that may not be suitable for public disclosure, please feel free to share them with me directly at [email protected]

Hi Michal,

Thank you for taking on this case and following up with Royals Tiger Casino.

I would like to reinforce that I requested payment by bank transfer and I still don't understand why it is not being processed. For me, it is essential that this situation is resolved as soon as possible, as I have complied with all the requirements.

I look forward to objective clarification and a concrete solution. Should you require any further information from me, I am more than happy to help.

Thank you for your attention and I look forward to hearing from you.

Olá Michal,

Agradeço por ter assumido este caso e pelo acompanhamento junto do Royals Tiger Casino.

Gostaria de reforçar que solicitei o pagamento por transferência bancária e continuo sem compreender o motivo pelo qual não está a ser processado. Para mim, é essencial que esta situação seja resolvida com a maior brevidade possível, uma vez que cumpri todos os requisitos solicitados.

Fico a aguardar um esclarecimento objetivo e uma solução concreta. Caso necessite de informação adicional da minha parte, estou totalmente disponível para colaborar.

Obrigada pela sua atenção e aguardo o seu retorno.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Sir or Madam,

Yesterday, I noticed that the bank transfer withdrawal option was once again available in my account, which was surprising since I had previously been informed that this method was not available in my country and it had been removed after my withdrawal attempts. I was even advised to use alternative methods, including cryptocurrency, which clearly demonstrates inconsistency in the handling of my case.

To date, the only amount I was able to withdraw was €200.07, allegedly because the remaining balance was classified as bonus funds. However, as confirmed by the records and screenshots in my possession, there was a €2,000 balance corresponding to actual winnings, at which point the bank transfer option was blocked.

It was precisely from that moment that I was no longer able to make further withdrawals and was required to use an alternative method, despite bank transfer having previously been active and operational.

Furthermore, today I checked my account again and it is now suspended once more. However, the proof of the withdrawal request submitted yesterday has already been sent. If the account had been suspended at that time, it would not have been possible to place that withdrawal order. This clearly indicates a serious inconsistency in the handling of my account.

Therefore, I formally reiterate my request for the payment of €2,000, corresponding to the legitimately won amount that was available in my balance at the time the transfer was blocked. I kindly request your urgent intervention to resolve this matter without further delay.

Kind regards, 

Elsa

Dear armar,

I have received a communication from the casino team that clarifies the sequence of events and the reason behind the issue, or perhaps it is more accurate to refer to it as a misunderstanding, in your case.

It was indicated that they will be providing their response in this thread soon. I remain optimistic that the clarification offered will deliver the clarity you are seeking.
