Multiple blackjack ****** taken from me, when hand was never played. One of the hands was played at 12:05 am on 8/21/22. When I got kicked out and logged back in, the wager was gone. I clicked on the bet # for this and it had an error message at first. Now it links this to another bet # that is inaccurate. I then received messages that I was locked out of my account. I have not been able to reach fanduel by phone, email or chatBusiness Response

To Whom It May ****************** write in response to ********************** recent consumer complaint regarding failed Blackjack rounds and account login issues (#********).
On August 22nd at 6:44pm EST, ****************** connected with FanDuel Customer Support regarding the failed Blackjack round issue. Once he provided all the relevant information to the agent, the issue was escalated to the Casino IT team so they could investigate. After review and collaboration with the game provider, it was determined that the rounds did not complete due to an error and therefore no winnings could be provided as a result.
****************** was supposed to have been informed of these findings, and a $100 courtesy credit was to be applied for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, he was not updated with this information and his account was not credited appropriately, and for this we sincerely apologize.
As for the account login issue, ****************** simply needs to reset his password. We have followed up directly with him via email with a secure link to reset his password, and informed him that his account has been credited $100 for the failed Blackjack round issue.
Now that the $100 has been credited and a password reset link has been sent, FanDuel considers this matter resolved.

My account was suspended right after winning. A notification was sent to me that my bank said the charges were unauthorized and this is not the case and I have that in writing from my bank. No one tried to contact me to discuss any of this, just immediately suspended my account and said I wasnt getting my winnings. Pretty suspicious and if you ****** it, seems to happen on a daily basis. Zero customer service or support to reach out to for helpZ. How can I get an account matter resolved when you have absolutely no way for me to contact you other than a chat feature that has hour wait times and only gives copy/paste worthless answers. You are holding my money hostage and I cant even sign into my account!Business Response

To Whom It May ****************************** write in response to **************** recent consumer complaint regarding the suspension of her account (#********).
On August 10th, **************** account was suspended by our Accounts Team. This was due to a notice we received on an incoming disputed deposit on her account. While this is only an alert, there is a high likelihood of that alert becoming an actual chargeback, in which case funds may be deducted from **************** FanDuel account. This would result in her being responsible for repaying the owed balance. While we understand any frustration on **************** part, suspending a user's account in order to rectify these situations is FanDuel protocol.
On August 19th at 12:25AM EST, ************ contacted our Customer Support team via our online chat service. Immediately after that conversation concluded (at 12:29AM EST), **************** case was escalated to our Accounts Team for review.
On August 23rd at 4:39PM EST, a member of our Accounts Team reached out to ************ via email, requesting that she provide specific information in order for our team to review her account for reactivation. This email was never responded to by ************.
We apologize for the delay in our team following up with her after the initial outreach. However, we advise that ************ respond to this email with the required information so our team can continue their review.

On or about august 15 I made a withdrawal. 1 day later my account was suspended for suspicious activity. Business had no problem accepting my ***** deposit but when I decide to withdraw there activity is suspicious. Tried to contact ******************* and the team told me that the account team cannot speak to them about why my account is suspended. So now my money is tied up with them and they can choose to do what they want without letting me know timely and keeping me in the dark.

I recently signed up for a FanDuel Sports Book account and later notified that my account was under review and that if I didnt upload source of funds documents my account would be suspended. I went ahead and did so only to find out that my account was suspended. I have repeatedly tried to contact customer support but no one responds nor do they provide any context or detail as to why I have been suspended. I have since resubmitted my proof of funds but no one has confirmed they received my information again, nor have I been given a timeline as to when I will be reinstated. I have multiple withdraws still pending which they won't release which are incurring interest and penalties. I have followed all the rules exactly as I should, I don't have multiple accounts, I don't use a VPN, my only fault is I withdrew a larger sum of money that got flagged. The purpose of "customer support" is to support a customer and help find a resolution or give an explanation as to why. I have yet to get that from anyone, let alone an email back. I shouldn't have to go through the BBB to get in touch with customer support.Business Response

To Whom It May ***************** write in response to ************** recent consumer complaint regarding Refund Or Exchange Issues (ID #*********.
On 8/4, during a routine review, weve identified *** *********** account as a substantial account. In order to remain compliant with regulatory standards, were required to conduct review accounts with such levels of gameplay.
We requested a Source Of Funds for ************************ and in this request, we advised that there is a 14-day period for him to load this, at which point we will need to suspend his account.
************************ did not upload the correct documents and was explained to do so. During the review period, ************************ entered the wrong Monitored Customer ID number, which has since been corrected, however the account was suspended on 8/18.
After completing the Source of Funds request, the account was reactivated on 8/22.
On 8/29, the account was suspended again as further information for our required withdrawal reports. As of of 9/1, ************************ has been contacted to resolve this matter.
This matter is still under review.

On August 4, my account with Fanduel was suspended and I received an email saying it was suspended due to inconsistent activity. On August 6th, they requested a self portrait of me with the current date; a picture of my drivers license; and a picture of my debit card with my name on it. I supplied them with all the requested information and received a standard email saying they would get back to me. This has been almost 2 weeks ago and after several emails I have not received a response. The companies voicemail box shuts off after 5 seconds and when you attempt to cyber chat with them they say no one is available. I have $350 in this account which I have no access to. This has become extremely frustrating not being able to have any communication with Fanduel to get this resolved. I see on the BBB website I am not alone.Business Response

On 8/4/22, the Accounts Security Team suspended *** ******* account pending payments and identity verification due to site rules violations. He immediately contacted Customer Support and the case was escalated to the Accounts Security Team for further review.
On 8/5/22, **************** was first contacted by a Security Team analyst who requested that he provide the appropriate documents to verify his account - front/back of the card used for funding, selfie holding a paper with the current days date, and a copy of their valid state issued ID. **************** returned a portion of these documents the following day 8/6/22 and then submitted the remaining documents on 8/22/22. After a review of the provided material, we determined that they were sufficient to allow him access to his account.
Accordingly, as of 08/22, *** ******* account was reactivated with a ***** warning to cease all activity that is a breach of our terms. **************** has since regained full access to his account and any available funds post suspension. We sincerely apologize for the delayed resolution and inconvenience this may have caused. FanDuel would now consider this matter resolved.

FanDuel suspended my account with no information and will not refund me my deposited money (from my bank account) and there is no information on how to contact anyone or how to resolve the issue.

My FanDuel account was suspended for suspicious activity after I attempted to withdraw money after winning a bet. About a week later, I received an email asking for me to submit a photo of myself holding up the current date and a photo of my debit card. I was also asked to upload a photo of my drivers license. All of which I did. A few days later I received another email asking to explain some deposits/withdraws. Again, I did. A week later, I received two more emails; one asking for me to take a photo of myself holding up the current date and a photo of my debit card, as well as upload my drivers license again. The second email was again asking me to explain some deposits/withdraws. These emails were exactly the same as the ones I received a week prior. Ive already verified who I am and have explained deposits/withdraws but my account continues to be suspended after winning a bet and attempting to withdraw those funds.Business Response

We write in response to ********************************** recent consumer complaint regarding refund / exchange issues (ID #*********.
On August 03, 2022, *** ******** FanDuel account was suspended for concerns regarding inconsistent activity on their account regarding frequent short deposit and withdrawals.
****************** then reached out to FanDuels **************** team regarding the suspension the very same day. Due to FanDuel account teams standard operating procedures regarding inconsistent activity, in order to verify ** ******** identity we requested information which involved uploading front & back of card used to create deposit transactions (cover first 12 digits leaving the last 4 and cardholder name visible), photo of ****************** holding a piece of paper with todays date, and to upload a valid state-issued photo ID, all to which ****************** was compliant.
After his identification was verified, we proceeded to ask ****************** about information as it pertained to the inconsistent activity on his account. After our teams review, we were able to see that there were multiple instances of successive deposits that ****************** immediately tried to withdraw without placing bets.
After this conclusion and after careful review of *** ******** FanDuel account activity, he was informed that his account would not be reinstated, a check with his remaining balance from winnings was processed and sent to him via check, deposited funds returned to the payment method used, all to which we consider this matter resolved.
