    I deposited a large amount of funds with multiple debit cards as I have in the past, to another online gaming site (BetMGM **), as I do not want personal information stored. I lost all my money in BetMGM **, so decided to go with Caesars Sportbook. I have accounts with Caesars Sportsbook in ** and **. My buy-ins in table games are significantly higher than sports, which can he seen in their system at all brick and motor Caesars properties. I accidently deposited these funds in the ** account, which does not have table games. I requested a withdrawal and my account was flagged by the **************** and my account has been suspended for weeks. I've opened numerous support cases with escalation with no resolve, and no way to contact their Fraud or ***************** They suspended my account and have over $8500 in holdings that can't be released or explanation to any of this. There is no way to actually contact anyone that knows anything. You get the run around on their support stating they will reach out if there are updates, but they don't reach out. I've constantly reached out via email and live chat and there is no resolution.

    Caesars sport book has locked me out of my account due to issues with their app geocomply. I spoke with geocomply and they have reinstated my account and I've been able to play at other casinos. Every time I call or email Caesars sport book to unlock my account they tell me they will send it to a supervisor to review, but I never hear back. I've been going back and fourth with them for a month now and my account is still locked. I have bonuses that I can't use because no one will get back to me

    GeoComply unblocked the player on 6/8/23 for her Caesars Sportsbook account. She was able to play on her other accounts because they were not blocked by GeoComply. GeoComply has separate accounts for each online gaming account a player has.

    The patrons Caesars Sportsbook account has remined open the entire time she was blocked on GeoComply. GeoComply will keep her mobile device blocked due to the prohibited software on that device. The patron can wager using her desktop on her Caesars Sportsbook account.

    A bet that I placed on the Caesars Sportsbook app was blatantly changed after it had settled, making my winning bet into a losing bet. I showed proof of this to 7 different support agents (so far), and now they are just being downright disrespectful. The support staff has been trying to gaslight me, and have been leaving me on hold for hours, which I assume is to try and make me give up. My $80 bet was supposed to win me $400, but now I have nothing, and the staff is refusing to refund me for my troubles. Genuinely the worst experience I've ever had with a sportsbook, and maybe my worst customer support experience ever in general. The only escalation specialist I've been able to speak with is ****, who just brushed my issue aside, and disregarded everything I said. All it would take is a simple $80 refund, from a billion dollar company, but nope, Caesars Sportsbook chooses to let their customers suffer instead. Unbelievable that a company this big and wealthy, will go to extreme ends to ensure that a small refund is not issued. I am extremely upset, and still desire the refund that I am owed.

    Supervisor contacted the patron on 6/7/23 and left a voicemail. Also sent an email with direct line to contact supervisor.

    Customer responded on 6/8/23 - I'm not speaking on this matter anymore. If I'm not getting a refund then just delete my account (insane that you don't let customers do that on their own) and stop contacting me.

    I decided to sign up for their sportsbook after seeing it advertised and seeing that they had a welcome offer. The welcome offer was supposed to be get up to $1250 back in bonus bets if your first bet loses. So I deposited $20 and placed a riskier bet than I normally would of believing that I would get my $20 back in bonus bets if it lost. Sure enough my bet lost, however I did not receive my wager back as a bonus bet. I contacted support and they claimed that I was supposed to enter a promo code when I placed the bet in order to get the welcome offer and they said that there is nothing they can do. The problem is that when I initially saw the advertising about the welcome offer, there was nothing about needing a promo code to get the offer. So I assumed that you didn't have to do anything to get it. Only after you click on the the advertised promo does it say anything about a promo code. I feel that the ad is very misleading. I have never needed a promo code to get a welcome offer for any other sportsbook. I feel that their advertising is intentionally misleading. It should say right on the initial ad that you need a promo code if that is the case. I feel like I have been cheated and I want a refund or my wager back in bonus bets.

    I had created an account and opted in to their $1500 welcome bonus promotion. After losing the initial wager I was given 2 bonus bets, 1 for $1250 and another for $250. I had placed a wager for Anytime Goalscorer on the player ************************* on May 8th 2023. My wager had apparently lost on May 10th 2023, however, I had specifically read the terms prior to placing the wager, and according to their terms it shouldve been voided and the bonus bet returned. Additionally, when Ive called the representatives although they had agreed that my wager shouldve been voided, they have reassured me that the traders will not reevaluate the wager. According to the terms and conditions on ******** own house rules (located on their website) if a player does not start and a wager is placed for a player to score during a soccer match, it shall be void. This is the specific wording of term #3 on Caesars house rules for soccer games player goal scoring Player to Score and to Assist a Goal. Additionally my friend had placed a wager on the opposite outcome, that this same player during the same game will not score, had been voided. Caesars has consistently blamed the traders and even though the reps are in agreement that the wager shouldve been voided, there is no way to reach the traders directly and they refuse to acknowledge their mistake

    Business Response

    Date: 05/23/2023

    The patron is referring to the incorrect house rule. The patron wager in question was on the Anytime Goalscorer market. Below are the MA house rules for that Soccer market with URL included as well.

    Rule 3 is the rule used for this wager. ---  If the selected player does not start the match and enters the field of play at any time, bets placed on that player in this market will stand.

    *******************************************************************************************

    Anytime Goalscorer

    Select a player to score at any time during a match.

    1. Bets are settled on the events that occur in normal time. This includes any injury/stoppage time added on by the match official at the end of normal time. Extra time does not count.

    2. Own goals do not count towards an anytime goalscorer.

    3. If the selected player does not start the match and enters the field of play at any time, bets placed on that player in this market will stand.

    I was wagering money playing slots on the Caesars app. Several times after wagering money and playing the slot I received a game error popup which closed the game. Upon re-opening the game, I saw that my wager had been deducted even though there was an error and the game crashed. Caesars Sportsbook should not be in business if their application is so unstable when handling peoples money.

    I tried to have my Caesars Sportsbook account and personal information deleted by calling Customer Support as directed by their website. Customer Support could only suspend my account, which I didn't realize until I received a confirmation email. Customer Support said that they couldn't delete my personal information and gave me an email address to contact for more information. I am still waiting on a response. I find it very unethical and irresponsible of Caesars Sportsbook to claim they care about the addiction of gambling, yet they make it impossible to distance yourself from them completely. They are also lying to people by stating that they will delete your personal information by calling Customer Support.

    I am rejecting this response because: As detailed in my complaint, I called the correct telephone number to have my account deleted and personal information purged. The Caesars representative did not delete my account, but merely suspended it. The representative then stated that they could not purge my personal information so it remained in their database, apparently forever.  Caesars privacy information forwarded to me by the BBB states that a fee could be charged if a person files a privacy requests when ******* is not "legally" obligated to do so.  

    Caesars privacy and marketing practices needs to be investigated. This is hypocrisy at the very least and theft of personal information in the worst case.
