Bitcoin Forum

Hello there,
I tried accessing TrustDice today, which is one of the first cryptocurrency casino's I've been introduced into, but it wouldn't load, claiming that "Connection is not private". I thought something was fishy at the moment, but quickly realized that it was actually blocked by my ISP.

https://i.ibb.co/YhVpLFr/commision.png (https://ibb.co/GRrc54h)

How should I deal with such an issue? I certainly thought of using a VPN, but I only have a free one, meaning that it could easily be used by another person on the website simultaneously, which could potentially lead to a ban. Stake and Fortunejack are also banned, after making a few guesses, Roobet still works fine.

^ It should be on your country's jurisdiction towards gambling casinos, those internet providers also follows government jurisdiction so if gambling is prohibited in your place, there is no way to access gambling casino, not unless you will use a VPN which is not a good decision to me. 
The site that you talking about is working fine with me, I can able to access it and I think, your country did it that is why you can't access that site.
VPN? No, this is very risky and it could be your fund trap on the site when your account will freeze due to the VPN you have used or read the ToS carefully.
If I were you, find a gambling casino that did not restrict in your place.

There are sites that do allow multiple accounts which means having VPN use wouldnt be an issue but rather the issue would be sticking into laws and regulation which you might be get caught.

VPN would be the key when it comes on having those kind of restriction.Whether your ISP or the site itself would impose such block then you can opt in on using it but of course
you arent that dumb on not to notice out on what are the risk behind those decisions.So its up to your own choice yet there are lots of sites or casinos which we can choose up
to make use but if you do pursue on accessing it then its your choice.

You already know the risk, so it's up to you now if you will take that risk.

Using VPN to bypass the restriction could be called cheating, so once the site knows that is what you are doing, then they can always implement a ban on your account and worse is you'll not be able to withdraw your funds, so just carefully evaluate the risk, if you can take it, then go and enjoy using VPN.

That's very simple, once your ISP is blocked, you are not allowed to gamble due to legal restrictions.

Now, the solution is very simple, you use VPN to change your IP and that will give you access to enjoy the gambling site.
Some sites would okay that, but some will see it as a form of cheating since the word "bypass" is cheating for them, so I agree with the poster above, you know the risk, it's up to you if you are willing to take the risk of getting banned later.

As others have mentioned, it's blocked due to my country's legal legislation, which sucks. There's not much to do at this point but to take the risk and use a VPN. In the worst case scenario, I'll get banned and lose any funds I have on the account, fortunately it's only a little. I don't see any other possible way to get around the block.

You have been warned. Once you have issues to the casino while your ISP added the casino in thier blacklist, you will find it hard to claim since you are from a blacklisted country.

The ISP seemvery  particular in banning casinos, when I tried visiting trustdice today, it asked me to solve captcha. Does that mean the casino is flagged or compromised?

I've been warned, but what else can I do? I'm not going to deposit any money of course, and only resort to use my existing balance, but there's no other choice, thus, I'm willing to take the risk, what else could I possibly do?

Regarding your issue, I don't think the casino has been flagged, it's probably just a security check to tackle spam.

Are you live in restricted countries of these casinos? if yes then you should give up and looking to other casino.

If you not come from restricted countries, then you can check on their TOS whether they allow VPN or not. If you doubt, you can ask on their thread about your case, obviously they will help you.

Stake do have mirror link, so you can avoid of getting ISP block https://stakemirror.com/

I think all big casinos should have mirror link to prevent from this issues, it's just funny government ban gambling site while the country is legal to gambling.

There's no way around your issue aside from using a VPN or if you're down to make the effort of going to another country just to bypass the restriction.

If you're willing to go and take the risk with the VPN then you just have to hope that they're lenient when it comes to their rules like Stake since they could easily bring it up and flag your account.

This is a good solution but it's unlikely for trustdice to have a mirror unless they're popular enough to have thousands of regular players from different countries.

Supposedly, Gaming Commission in Greece blocks unauthorized gambling services, not gambling all-together. However, I remember quite a few casinos being blocked in the past. Although, those that involved cryptocurrency weren't affected, till now I guess. The blocked site list, which is available online, now includes a wide range of crypto casinos, many of which can be found throughout this forum.

Have you tried changing the DNS on your device to something else? Sometimes it can solve the problem of being blocked by your ISP but I don't know what will happen to your account at that ISP.

Using a VPN can be done but before you use a VPN, you better ask each casino you want to play at first because the policies of each casino are different. To use a VPN, I recommend using a premium VPN because it can provide many IPs that you can choose from. But to be on the safe side, you don't need to visit the casino if your ISP is blocking your connection there.

Try using it this way, I also initially couldn't load Fortunejack but after using it it can be reopened without a VPN.

How To Access Sportsbet.io or any kind of gambling without VPN (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5386649.0)

Usually, casinos allow using a VPN as long as it doesn't become an abuse and it's better to use a premium VPN instead of a free one, but it's better to ask first, but if you don't want to risk too much, another casino might be an alternative.

Knowingly that you've been warned from a gambling website and is still willing to take risk, then the next possible move to use VPN to access the website and continue playing. Also, it is rare to encounter an issue where another users will be using the same IP with free VPN. However, using free VPN will make your account more suspicious as you will have different IP every time you use it. So you should be prepared when asked for a KYC check or any possible instance where you might be caught by the website.

Anyways, Casinos asking you to solve captcha doesn't necessarily mean anything other than avoiding spam and possibly use of bots.

Sorry but it looks like your country is banned from that gambling site.

There's no other way but to bypass that restriction, however, you need to understand that you are violating the TOS, and if they found out you are violating, as per their rule, they can ban your account and freeze your assets. Now, if you are okay with that, then you should not worry about using VPN.

VPN is for privacy, but you are using it to bypass restrictions, which is not allowed per TOS.

You can avoid being blocked by changing ISPs, or playing at alternative casinos until eventually your ISP filters all the casino sites.

Some casinos have actually studied the gambling rules in their biggest customer countries and they still tolerate the use of VPNs to keep reaching customers from sites blocking countries. What you need to worry about using a VPN is that if the casino company blocks your country, you may not be able to recover the locked funds.

The ban isn't issued by the gambling platform. His internet service provider is restricting OPs access to the site.

This is what I would do.
Contact the support, preferably via email so you are left with written proof. Explain to them that your ISP is blocking access to their site. Ask them if players from your country are allowed to gamble on their casino. Ensure that you read their TOS as well just to be safe that there are no territorial restrictions where you live. Ask them if you are allowed to use a VPN to bypass your ISPs restriction. If they say you can, great. If not, find another casino and do the same.

You can of course disregard everything I have said and just gamble with a VPN, but you could then get into the kind of trouble you mentioned yourself where you are accused of multi-accounting, etc. Save the email from support as proof they allowed you to use VPN (if that indeed happens), so you can show it to them if they limit or ban your account due to VPN usage.

Switch ISP's or if it's a country-wide ban, switch countries use VPN but know the risks of using it first and foremost. Not to mention that when they ask KYC details about you and you were found using VPN, they might just revoke your account since afaik, the casino also has an official list of countries that have banned them so technically avoiding that ban also is against them (or their TOS, not really sure which or how to call it). Maybe double-check with your ISP first, it may have been just a connection error that was linked to that page, who knows, bugs could happen.

Gambling sites blocked by ISPs is a very common thing in my country because gambling is illegal in my country.
There is no other way to avoid this except by changing our own IP with VPN or by using mirror link of the casino (if any).
Using free VPN is not recommended, it is better if you buy the premium one, I dont think it is that expensive so I believe it is not a big deal for any gambler because what they spend in gambling is absolutely bigger than what they need to pay for VPN.

It should be issue with your country’s laws.
I mean your country have imposed some specific laws to access the sites.
And for this reason, your ISP might have strict orders to block the web sites that violates the law.
An alternate option for this is to change your ISP if you are eagerly want to play on the site.
Moreover don’t use any type of VPN(paid), as many sites ban accounts if they play through VPNs.
Moreover you can still playing in sites that is accessible through your ISP.

Easy: get a VPN. Mullvad.net (currently my favourite) accepts crypto payments at any amount, you can literally pay a few cents for only a few hours.

I'm sorry if I'm being a little insensitive but if in your country they are banning casinos then that means you will be breaking the TOS of the casino of your subscription, maybe it would be better for you to research better if really in your country they banned all casinos due to some specific law that has been passed or they are just exaggerating (taking advantage of the law) and are putting many casinos on the blacklist without any need, because I don't see how all online casinos in the world will have to ask for a license in your country to be able to operate or in your country they just don't want casinos? because from what I've read I don't understand why they are now blocking gambling sites when until 2020 they have a proposed law that was more or less acceptable


 :o

God in heaven, I thought my country was the worst in the world, at the end of the day it can still be surpassed by some other country. how can a government dictate what people can and cannot do with their own money? something I don't understand. well in my country gambling is legal, at least that's the only good thing about it

This is true. Accessing the website while your ISP restrict it by default only means you are breaking the law. Maybe Roobet is not yet categorized as online gambling site that's why it's still working  except the others but soon it will be restricted once you keep using it.

@OP, Is this your first time to encounter this issue? Is there any recent implemented law in your country that restrict online gambling?

When you access TrustDice, are you directed to complete the CAPTCHA.

I tried to access the TrustDice site and complete the captcha, it seems normal without any problems.

https://trustdice.win/
https://zizihub.com/d08944.jpg

I think the current TrustDice site, is restricting user access in your country, my guess, otherwise my advice is don't use a VPN for login access.

Try to access it again, if you are directed to complete a further captcha, or try to contact them on their telegram: TrustDice (https://t.me/joinchat/JyDAdhLI0YZo3-x3YAQZUQ), and ask if they restrict it for your area, ask for a solution other than access via VPN.

No worries, no offense taken, I'm here to seek advice and actually, you're right. I just checked their TOS and it doesn't mention anything for VPN usage, but does mention that multi-accounting is a bannable offense "Only one Account for each household, IP, PC is allowed". On top of that, it also mentions that if you're using their site from a restricted country, you're practically breaking their TOS.

"3.7 You are aware that the right to access and use the website and any products there offered, may be considered illegal in certain countries..., or other restricted jurisdictions (“Restricted Jurisdiction”) as informed by us from time to time. By using the Website you confirm you are not a resident in a Restricted Jurisdiction."

On top of that, I'd rather not use a VPN because I tend to forget to turn it off, and I'd rather not have multiple IPs showing on certain websites.

If you are that afraid to lose whatever funds you have in the account, you could try to contact the customer service by using a VPN without logging into your account and explain your situation to them, and tell them that you only want to get your money back, in that case maybe they could allow you to connect from a VPN to get your money and then you can play in whatever casino that is not restricted by your ISP, or play in a casino which does not mind their users to connect through a VPN.

If you are really that in doubt then you could always ask out on  the platform you are tending to play.In case if you cant find it in their terms and conditions but mostly its really stated there thats why
its really important that you should have some time on reading it up at least you would really be that aware on what are the rules of this site. If you are eagerly tending to play on the site but
having that kind of restriction then you could always have the time on asking them and if its prohibited then you wont really be having any choice but to deal off with other sites which do allow.
Yeah its sad when you dont able to play on the site you do like but you dont have any choice unless if you could risk out on using VPN despite of being against on terms then its your choice.

If i am facing the same situation, i would purchase a dedicated IP to access to these websites rather than using dynamic IPs because you never know when the gambling website is going to shut their doors on you claiming suspicious activity usually when you win something big. So in order to avoid that, either purchase a VPN that provides dedicated IP.

I'll try to contact them through their Telegram group like another user recommended, or via email. I never thought they'd start banning cryptocurrency casinos a few years ago but I guess due to their increasing popularity, more and more will be added to their list.

I'll see what kind of response I receive, in the worst case scenario, I've lost a few bucks.

Don't use vpn just yet because till you researched and find out if trustdice allows it or not, if not then you can try other gambling sites which allows vpn, if you still want to continue gambling using a crypto. I know stake is not strict when it comes to this matter. You can also play on roobet since you said this was still working without the use of vpn.

You will feel awkward at first playing on the site you are not familiar with but you will get used to this feeling soon. I know roobet and stake are a high quality websites. It will be perfect for you no matter what your goals are, whether you are playing for fun or for the profit. It was only sad if you still have some funds left on trustdice or if your VIP level is already high.

Using VPN is not really prohibited. You just have to make sure that it was allowed by the site.

Please also check if using other ISP does have the same problem. Sometimes, it is just the provider as the main reason but when you access it on other providers, it works fine since you said, it works before. How to check it? Of course, I'm sure you don't have the same ISP as your friends. Ask them to access the site and see the result.

Start from there before doing the next steps.

if you arent that a bigtime gambler or does involve huge amount of money then using up dynamic IP's wont really be that issue but if you are totally in opposite then it is just right
on buying up dedicated IP so that you would able to avoid yourself on possible hassle that you might experience in the future if ever you would win big but thats still a what if situation.
Its also important on reading up site terms if VPN is prohibited or allowed which in most cases its really that a red flag to them thats why reading is a must.

I've also experienced this before, but I changed the DNS from my ISP and didn't violate the TOS from the ISP and the casino and that is the same as what you suggested to us. Thank you.

Even though the casinos allow the use of VPNs, it's best if we ask the casino so we don't run into any problems in the future. Using a VPN is a quick way to get around the problem of blocking or not visiting a site.

I don't know how far your ISP has gone into blocking the casinos because in my country when first the casinos and every website with the word "bet" in their domain was blocked all I had to do was to change the DNS settings to something else,for example to google 8.8.8.8 and I could access the site.This didn't last long though as after some time whatever DNS I was using these sites were blocked from all ISP-s in my country.Now I use a Premium VPN (Hide my ass) it is called but it costs money like 2.99 dollars a month,anyone can afford to pay such money for a Premium service is my opinion about this.

It looks like the country's ISP policy to block entering the particular gambling platform. For now the better choice is to contact the trustdice support team through some means. This will help you providing mirror link to enter the site. I'm not sure about it, but with Stake when such issue arises it is possible to enter the platform through mirror links provided.

So what's the point of banning the IP if the gambling site itself can give a mirror link? It's like they are not implementing their rules, because if it's ban, it should be ban and there's no other way to access it legally.

Know the rules of your country with regard to online gambling. It's them that have given the ISPs in your country the command of restricting the citizens. There's no other way of dealing with it but through using a VPN. There are cheap VPNs that you can rely on and much better if you don't depend on the free ones. And before using one, ask your chosen casino if they're okay with the use of a VPN so that you won't be surprised if ever they ask you a sudden KYC because of that particular rule. You can go through them on their ANN threads.

The point to note is that here the ISP is blocking the gambling sites and there is no issue from the gambling sites blocking  your country. In this case , I think the gambling site will have no objection and your ISP won't be able to find you are accessing the gambling sites. Just make sure the VPN connecting location should not be any country which the gambling site has restricted.

It's not really suprise.

Example, In muslim-country they're quite active to block not only gambling site but also porn. I also need to dealing with ISP Blocked for any kind gambling site, but to be honest we can solved this issue without need VPN.

If the casino want to help player, like creating a few mirror link we can access. One of the site who have this system is "Stake" and really help for people who are getting blocked by our internet provider country.

You shouldn't count on the good will of casinos. If you lose your money at them they will stay friendly and warm with you but if you win money, you won't be welcomed anymore and they won't tolerate this kind of thing anymore. Then as Maslate said, it's risky.
The better and easier solution is to simply change your DNS server in your configuration. You can use the one of Google (8.8.8.8), or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) for example.
Raflesia gave a link above of a thread explaining how to do it easily into Chrome.

Was way too busy the past few days and haven't been able to contact them yet, I'll make sure to report back when I do and receive their response. Thank you for all your replies, I'll make sure to try changing the DNS settings or Cloudfare before doing.

I didn't have much money on the account, thus I don't really care if I end up losing it, but it'd suck a little.

---

Many thanks! Just tried it and works like a charm, no need to contact them nor use a VPN and risk losing my funds. A quick question though, does using Cloudflare DNS affect anything else? I hadn't heard of it as an option before, so it's all new to me.

Thanks in advance

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

The lesson is be rich enough to take a private plane or ship into international waters for your gambling needs, then you are legal.   Lots of things are quite unfair if you dont have money, I wouldnt worry too much about your gambling usage just dont hold too much at once is probably the solution I guess but mostly you should not be hassled in any more moderate solution.

I'm not planning to hold a large balance because technically, I'm still accessing the website from a restricted country, thus breaking their TOS, not sure how applicable this is after using Cloudflare's DNS though, but generally, I'd rather be cautious. However, my question is, does TrustDice or any other website still see my actual IP address, knowing that I'm bypassing my country's block?

If you are masking your real IP, they will not be able to see it, but there's a risk that's why you should be ready on the sanction since you knowingly access the stie even if your country are ban from accessing it. Sometimes, we just have to find a way to enjoy even if it's not allowed, but we should be responsible enough to accept the consequences.

Sad to say but gamblers from gambling-restricted countries will surely have trouble and yes, the only option might you have is to play in a nonrestricted country which will cost you a lot. Most gambling sites also don't allow the use of VPN since it's against their TOS. Another option that you can try is to reach out for help from the Casino.

Read the TOS or any documents that could help you regarding this matter, you may try to use VPN, a paid one or not as long as the website will not prohibit its player for using the VPN, also try to check your blocklist option in your browser as well, I am not sure but just try to search blocklist and whitelist option in your router and also in which device you are currently using right now.

It is better to avoid keeping a large balance in your gambling account to avoid things that we do not want. I don't think changing DNS should get you into trouble but it's a good idea to consult with each casino so you know if changing DNS is allowed or if it's a violation of their rules. It needs to be done to avoid violating the rules they have. I guess the casino will still be able to see your IP address even if you change DNS and they will gradually figure out which country you are from.

That's crazy. If he have that much money, he can just secretly make a deal with his ISP to give him some exemption in exchange for good amount of money or he won't play gambling at all if his only goal is to make some money since he is already wealthy. Sometimes it's not about the money because there are people or company that values their reputation first and won't accept any forms of kickbacks.

The OP's usage in terms of gambling is going to get lesser this time because his ISP is starting to restrict gambling websites. It sucks if you're attached to gambling already but it can be beneficial to prevent you from losing further or to become addicted to it.

Easy to say but reaching out with your ISP isnt something simple that you could deal with.Its a big company and you cant really just make out dealings on having exemptions and come to note that this wont involve

small money just for you to make yourself crossed out on banned or restricted and since they are regulated by the government then its understandable that they would go in line on what government

do set out rules and as a big business they couldnt make out such request or trying out to oppose because that would really be surely be a big problem once they get caught for some violation.

He can do the latter.

Asking if it's okay to use a VPN for accessing that casino will make him comfortable using a VPN. He's going to get a clarity before he do something that might be against to the casino if he hasn't seen it on the TOS.

Yeah, majority won't allow it.

But I've seen some that would be totally okay with it as long as there's no other activity that's been found on their account aside from using a VPN just to access and gamble.

With laws being implemented to combat gambling addiction, it is but necessary for the government of some countries to create laws restricting such access. I really do think that your case is an example of such. While you were able to access the gambling website before, your country has acted upon such to limit/restrict your access on it.

Since this is the case on your end, I recommend trying some other gambling websites as a lot has been circulating nowadays. Though it sucks to lose access to the gambling website you have been accustomed using with, such is not the end of the world as it can easily be remedied.

Even paid VPNs are questionable to use on gambling sites, it's a high risk to take that could probably lead to your account being blocked and the loss of funds you might have or win on these sites.
I know it's very bad when our favorite betting site is blocked, but au would still recommend you to bet on another site that is not blocked... there are many good and reliable gambling sites.
Have you tried checking if Duelbits is accessing?

DNS doesn't hide your IP address, it's just changing your server only. Does you're live in the location where Trustdice ban it? changing DNS doesn't help you to play in they site, but you're just able to access their site only. I believe there's no problem when you create an account, deposit and play the games. Until you wanted to withdraw, the casino will flag your account and ask your KYC, you will loss anything.

Casino games or those that are not legal in a country (website) do tend to be protected by either the ISP or other hosting provider services. Premium VPNs can sometimes be an alternative but so far in my country accessing the site without 3rd party services can be accessed. ISP what do you use friends? is it clodflare? or you can try 1 by 1, the tutorial will be quite complete on youtube.

I understand your passion for games, gambling and fun things.
should be able to deal with it without prolonged obstacles.
Behind the difficulty, the private connection is actually to protect its customers.

If so, I would not risk keeping playing on that site because one day, I could get into trouble, especially if I could win a lot of money from that site. They will investigate my account before I can withdraw my winnings and in the end, they will find out that I am from a country that is banned from playing on that site. I'm sure some casinos will allow you to gamble even if you don't use a VPN or don't change your DNS.

If he wants to use free VPN, he should check the terms about multi accounts because free VPN may use the same IP for many users.
If multi accounts is something againts the casino rules, it is wiser for him to avoid free VPN as his account might be linked to other accounts that use the same free VPN.
ISP block is annoying ofc, nothing we can do about it since it is all about the regulation/law and changing IP by VPN is the only way we can do to solve this ISP block.

You are right, and in general I am surprised by such topics because the use of VPN on the modern Internet is a necessary thing in almost any country (I think in any but I have not checked all  ;D ).
And I advise to use a paid VPN because the free ones provide a bad connection, you cannot be sure of their reliability and their IP address ranges are known to those who ban VPN users, so this is an additional risk of getting banned.

I only see that minimum payment is for month ? Do they offer services on hourly basis also ?

You're right, the solution to this is to have a good VPN, I've seen a couple of casinos that accept the use of VPN, I don't see anything wrong with it if you play and don't cheat in any way, but it's true, some Sometimes there are players who start experimenting with the platforms using VPN and at the moment of making a withdrawal is when the problems begin and that is where those threads arise in Reputation, and then a very unpleasant time passes, both the casino and the person , the person wants to withdraw his funds, but if the casino does not allow the use of the VPN he is able to ban his account and block his funds.

While this is true and valid, if the VPN was used to access at restricted and prohibited regions by the gambling site, that will subject to violating the terms.

 The use of VPN should be fine as long as it was accessed at allowed regions. The use of VPN is already very common and it was allow by the gambling site at most of the cases as long as, as you have mentioned, not to cheat or do something unusual.

Privacy and anonymity is the only reason why we should used VPN and not the other way around which involves fraud-related schemes.

Ah, so the war has began on anything Bitcoin related now. I hate how much power ISP's have. They don't have any right in my opinion to censor what you can view. Obviously, they're a private company so they can make their own policies, and you sign up to them. However, it's still wrong.

They don't ban other fiat trading gambling related websites, so they shouldn't with Bitcoin trading ones. As others have said a simple VPN will fix this. You could have problems with the site themselves if they don't allow VPNs. Alternatively, you can use your phone connection, those usually aren't blocked, unless the company providing your contract has done so, in my experience they've only ever had parental controls, rather than blocking websites.

My suggestion is to use a proxy and buy a VPN premium plan for a dedicated IP address. If you use public free VPN company services, most likely the IP addresses were used by other users for different purposes. So you will face with potential ban due to dark history of VPN IP address.  Buy a VPN subscription and bypass block by ISP. BTW, did you talk to ISP and asked why the websites are blocked? If gambling is not legal on your country, this should be done by government.

If the problem is from ISP then I'm pretty much sure they also Blocked the VPN services. This is really annoying when I'm playing to ISP they blocked me to access my favorite sites.

Some day ago something like this happened to me, I can't connect to my local torrent server to download movie, they blocked it. when I make a phone call to my ISP provider they told me due to high traffic they blocked some pages randomly. After requesting thousands of times they gave me access to my favorite server for a couple of hours. The next day I immediately changed my ISP and registered for a new provider to avoid such unpleasant situations.

Check the TOS of the casinos, if they allow the use of VPN as long as you are not creating multiple accounts, they can easily trace it through IP browser and other data or better contact the casino and explain your issue if they allow you and you encounter a VPN issue, you can show part of the conversation that they allow you to use a VPN, but it's better to choose other casinos that you can access, this is to prevent future issues on your account.
It's better to play having peace of mind.

Why not see if your country is allowed to use the casino first while checking the TOS? Usage of VPN will not solve the issue if you're from a banned region. You may be able to play temporarily using that method but you'll eventually get into trouble once the casino finds out you're violating their TOS.

This one.

At most cases, most ISPs are not blocking the use of the VPN service. That's the purpose of using VPN in the first place. Just a little tweak then VPN should run smoothly. Even in the office, anyone can use VPN as long as users can find a way to install the program on their respective work station.

ISP banning gambling sites are not common on several countries unless the country has a strong stand against gambling and treating it as illegal.

From what country you from?

There are two reasons your country blocking the gambling site or the gambling site blocking your country, our country is very liberal on online casinos and gaming sites but I still find casinos blocking my country, so it's really two way, don't force your way in, it might complicate things in the future with so many online casinos with the best ones accepting the majority of the countries, you'll always have a choice where to play.

If the casino provides services to your region/country, then it would be safe to use a VPN. If there is an option to verify your account, then verify your account first. This way the chance of getting banned is almost zero, as long as you aren't doing some fishy stuffs.
Contact support and let them know that you will be using a VPN and explain the reason. Let them know your account is verified and they will highly likely whitelist your account.

if you do not violate the gambling site it is possible that the ISP blocked the gambling site, if you operate it on a pc device, try trying other options on a smartphone.  if the results are the same of course the last resort you have to subscribe to a VPN. 
You don't need to worry because there are many VPNs that can only be accessed by yourself

If you have doubt then don't there are a risk in using a free VPN, you can use a VPN that offers a free one-week or month trial if you are that serious about accessing the site using a VPN if there are other ISP in your country try to access that using other ISP in your country maybe it's your own ISP is blocking it or the gambling casino is now banning your country, but once you access is cautious with depositing and playing.

Most gambling sites are indeed blocked by local ISPs. in my place is also the same, many are blocked only a few may pass. using a VPN can be a solution even though it is also risky, or changing to Google DNS without using a VPN. I usually use the VPN App provided by the antivirus I use, so it's a bit more premium. Using a free VPN is fine as long as you know the risks.

It depends on the regulation/law related to gambling where do you live. There are many countries where gambling is not something against the law but there are also some countries where gambling is considered as a crime. Using free VPN is not fine if you are an active regular gambler, it is not recommended as it may make your account suspected to be abusing the casino's rule especially related to multi accounts. There is no good reason to use free VPN, it is better to spend some more money to buy premium VPN.

Well, that's an important point, what happens is that we currently have many help tools to be able to guarantee enjoyment, and like everything else, any computer tool or thing that can help can be used to do bad things, that's why it's difficult control that they can do it for bad things, in fact for me in my personal opinion I suppose that in the very near future most casinos and bookmakers will have to accept players who can enter the sites using VPN, and perhaps the licenses they will not have the same weight of importance that they have now. Of course this is just what I think can happen.

That's right. Using a free VPN on a gambling site that prohibits citizens of your country to use its services, you risk very quickly to get on the list of suspicion. After all, there is a possibility that another user of this gambling site using the same free VPN after some time to come from the IP address that you used. You will have to confirm your identity and most likely to part with your account as you violate the rules of using the services provided.

That would be a good move as that will allow far more players to join these casinos even from jurisdictions that are currently not allowed to gamble.This is also a double edge sword as by using VPN services not all people are the most honest in the world so there is room for abusing bonuses,referral commission and so on.The IT team of the casino should be pretty alert and should monitor the activities coming from users that use VPN in much more detail than users who do not use VPN-s,because VPN-s add a layer of complexity for the IT team to check on.

I prefer to change the DNS on the computer that can help us visit gambling sites because we don't need to install any software on our laptops or computers. Before you use a VPN, it is better first to ask the token's location so that the use of the VPN will be more private. But I do not recommend using a free VPN where we may be indirectly connected.

If we're only want to visit the gambling sites, then either DNS, free VPN, or premium VPN are doesn't matter since we aren't gamble and using the sites. If he want to play in the casino, then either DNS or premium VPN can be choice, even though there's a risk about it. But it's what it's if he really want to gamble, we can't stop him. AFAIK the most safest DNS is Cloudflare and OpenDNS.

So it will depend on what we want to do when visiting the casino. But it would be better if we replaced it from the start so we don't have to bother changing DNS or premium VPN anymore. In addition, we can register immediately if it is a new casino site or play immediately if we already have an account at the casino. But please make sure in advance if the casino allows VPN use because some casinos don't and some allow it. Maybe for the terms of using a VPN, we must visit the casino site and log in with our real IP so that the casino can see the machine number on our device.

I rarely find casino sites that apply restrictions on the use of VPS and DNS, all terms and conditions are only limited based on the list of countries that are not allowed, all countries that are allowed can be accessed directly without VPN and DNS but it depends on the ISP of each country. So if you are an active gambler then it is better to subscribe to premium VPN and DNS to avoid suspicion while evaluating user data by casino site admins.

Maybe for unrestricted use of DNS but I don't know if it's a VPN because if someone can win a lot of money from various games, they can be asked to verify their account and the casino will ask about the VPN they are using. Somehow, the casino can tell if someone is using a VPN or is using their real IP. Therefore, it is better to be careful when using a VPN for gambling and make sure that the casino allows the use of a VPN. Even if we are not active gambler, it is better if we subscribe to a VPN to avoid tracking from hackers who want to know our location.

Or maybe before making your first deposit to a blocked casino by your ISP, why not tell the casino itself ahead of time that you will be using a VPN, and the reason WHY you're going to a VPN. I believe most of the online casinos in crypto are OK with it because privacy is more valued by the users in crypto than the no-coiners who play in fiat online casinos.

There's no other option than using the VPN with this but of course, make sure to check if the gambling website is supported the use of the VPN because your account might risky due to having different addresses and preventing a flag like suspicious activity with your account. Also, another thing you can do is to change the ISP you have if there are a lot of providers in your country and you are willing to change just to play with your hobby.

Yes, checking whether gambling websites support the use of VPN or not is highly recommended because that is what we have to do to avoid any problems that might arise later. But I think there will be casino websites that can allow their members to use VPNs so they won't have any trouble. Apart from that, there must be casinos that we can access without using a VPN or changing DNS and I think we can find them on this forum.

Yes, although I think that in some way the casinos and betting houses will have to fight to be able to accept these requests at some point, as time goes by more people will know Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies (those who do not know) and will take advantage of having casinos online, for this reason they will look for a way to do it and they will want to protect their money and be able to play in peace, whether with bonuses or not, they will want to do it, and many casinos are already beginning to update this idea and will allow this very good option, and with Regarding my personal opinion, I do not agree with prohibitions, I believe that everyone in the world regardless of the country has the right to have fun and I believe that this has to be a sufficient premise to begin the acceptance of VPN.

ISP blacklist the casino because of the government wants them to do so in such case probably a law imposed by the government which goes against the casinos so usage of VPN is violation which casinos even don't encourage it, if Roobet is still working then contact the support about your issue on other site and ask them you're allowed to play there or not because it may take a while to blacklist all the sites and also casino may need enough time to update the list and their terms.

I do not see any other options other than how to use VPN, and only paid VPN. Free VPNs are slow, plus they are detected (since their public IP range is known) by almost all services that fight with VPN. I use VPN for other reasons, but it's obvious to me that if you need to get reliable access to blocked sites (especially when it comes to money), then you need to buy a good service.

Maybe because the site is restricted in your country. Some countries block and restrict sites but unfortunately, using VPNs on some gambling sites is against their TOS. If you're having a hard time accessing the site, you can look for reputable sites that are accepted in your country. You can surely find a good site other than that but be sure to check their reputation.

That's because most people don't tell the casino why we use a VPN and when we get into trouble, we tell the casino. That's what makes a lot of people subject to restrictions from casinos because their regulations clearly prohibit VPN use. So we should be honest with the casino and maybe the casino can give us an alternative option on how we can access their site. They can also keep an eye on us as they should and if we bet for a small amount of money, they don't have a problem using a VPN.

me too, have no other option but to use a paid VPN for various reasons, there are many sites that are blocked by the ISP this slows down the performance of every activity I do not only for gambling sites. even i have to access the VPN just to open binance obviously this is very inconvenient. the regulations in my country are too complicated that's why I bought the best service.

Users has it different sets of option with their gambling website and of course it's depends on the players preferences at the same time the feature of the platform that's they reason why some of them want to push through it to play and create an account to them. The ideal is to use a VPN but makes sitit's must make sure that the gambling casino is supported the VPN because it might tag the account due to changing of the different ISP that might take suspicious.

Unless this is a government mandated gambling site ban, then you as the bill payer should be able to turn this on or off. It's actually good for it to be turned on by default, as it might protect some children from engaging with such websites. If it's a good system, it will be learning and adding new sites every single day, sometimes using sites that users have already accessed with a comparison against a word blacklist. So even if roobet is working today, it could stop working at any time, so it's risky to start using a site on that basis because you'd have to login with a VPN at a later point after it gets blocked. Unfortunately if it is government policy then you might just be stuck with it and you described an issue with using even paid VPN's.

 ;D very naive to say so. Firstly, I do not like fiat casinos/bookmakers (as far as I know, the use of cryptocurrency in my country is completely prohibited), and secondly, in my country, most (I think all) casinos/bookmakers are scammers. I see the risks in using a VPN, but they suit me compared to other options: either not play at all, or play in fiat scam projects.

It seems like your country blocked your access to the gambling site and there is nothing you could do rather than using a VPN but using a VPN also has it own risk and you should be aware of that. Your VPN connection especially the free ones might be van by the gambling platform and you using the same ip address might make your account to get ban.

Know your risk so you will be able to admit the consequences when it comes to you in full. You can use Orbot VPN but it is not that preserved. When using VPN always fund your account with small amount in case the worse happens.

You should understand the fact that based on your country, there are going to be very few countries which will allow the Gambling under certain conditions which will be met by your country as well.
The risk of using VPN is a lot, there are some gambling platforms that do not provide services for most VPN and at the end they would not let you take your winnings out and you would have probelms inadvertently. It's wise to only use the gambling platforms that do allow either. : VPN for example: blackjack.fun or to use the Gambling platforms which are legally providing services in your area.

Forcing to gamble despite knowing that your ISP is blocked would only give you a problem in the long run. I suggest you to look for other casinos that accept your IP, that way you will not think of your account getting freezed and you can focus on what you are doing.

This is what normally a responsible person would do, but some or rather the majority always choose to challenge the casino, and here is when a great development of undesirable problems is denoted that should be avoided at all costs, and I know that if they do not accept your IP, you have to see that this is like women, there are many in the world, you can't lose your head just for one, because in the end it can be just a simple whim, and waste time, energy and above all a lot money in it, so there are so many options to play in any other casino, why risk work, money there?

I would just look for other casinos if I were you. This situation can be used against you by the casino in the future and that is not a pretty experience to have. If you win a big amount and the casino finds out that you're playing from a country that their services are not available to, they can easily forfeit your winnings on that grounds.

Search for a casino that works for your IP without any restrictions, then check its legitimacy and its features before jumping the gun and making your first deposit.

Wont really be that much a serious issue if you are just a small time gambler because if ever the casino would locked out your account then at least you wouldnt really be bothered much since the amount is big
but if not then its better to find for another casino or site so that you wouldnt really be having any problems in the future specially if you are a heavy gambler but i dont know on why there are people who are really that thriving on playing on a site even if we do know that we've been restricted and this is where people do make use of VPN but of course most of us been aware on what would happen if ever we've been caught
but still people who do still continue despite of that risk and i dont know why but well its their choice.

True, if the gambling site doesn't allow gambling then accessing it without VPN would be impossible and VPN is really needed before you can access it but as you have said that using VPN to access a gambling site that your country is one of the countries that are prohibited to access it is very risky. Why?, Because once you won huge or small amount and decided to withdraw and the gambling site finds it suspicious then the chance of not being able to withdraw is high.

VPN is the only key but once you've been caught out by the casino then prepare yourself on making out those identification verification which we know that its impossible to be done on a dynamic address.
So consider those funds to be in total lost or cant be recovered up and since you had violated sites rules on the first place.Dealing up with ISP block wont really be that much a problem
if you do just simply make yourself do find another place to play and wont be forcing yourself to play on site which prohibits you to play.

indeed it is better to avoid sites that prohibit the use of VPNs than to lose money for violating the rules. there are many more flexible sites that don't prohibit the use of vpn or sites that are unblocked. Usually new sites still pass. but for many old sites that are not allowed by the ISP. This also depends on the number of ISPs in each country.

There isn't always a good way around this and it kinda depends on the laws of the country you are in. If it's legal in your country, then you should either contact the ISP to ask them to remove this unnecessary block or switch ISP if they aren't willing to open up a service you are paying to use. If it is illegal to gamble in your country then you face multiple risks which means you probably need to stop playing at online casinos, there is the risk of prosecution which could lead to many bad consequences and then there is the threat that the online casino could seize all your funds leaving you with little recourse depending on how their terms of service agreement is structured.

You can create your own free VPN using free tiers on cloud platforms like Google cloud platform and Amazon AWS.
There are tutorials on Youtube which you can refer to create your own free VPN.
This VPN will have only one country by default where the cloud server would be located.
Since this is solely your account so nobody else would be using that IP address other than you.
So your problem will be solved.

I have also read about these options as I will most likely have to use them in the future (I am from Russia where the internet is more and more censored). This begs the question - which country is best suited to make a VPN in its range of IP addresses? After all, if I want to use more than one gambling site, but several (potentially all possible), then I must take into account that different countries have different restrictions. Which country is the most free in this sense?

Maybe if you want to gamble in a casino the is already have a thread in this forum you may see some replies maybe you could see the list of the countries that are free to use the website? I am using Netherlands before and SG, I don't know if it is applicable in gambling site, because I only use this country for me to be routed to a country that has the item of the game that I want to buy and also to have a new IP if I am accessing some free books website. But the thing is every website there is a a docs that blacklisted areas are written.

Oh, if you use a VPN, it's a bit too risky when you do that and I'm sure you know the result is not good because your account will be at risk, and you're right, your account can be banned.

And in agreement with your statement, the country you are in seems to be restricted on the gambling site platform you are referring to. because if you insist on using a VPN, just prepare yourself for its bad consequences.

Using VPN is fine as long as it does not against the terms of the casino especially related to the prohibited jurisdictions.
If the block comes from the ISP means that the ISP does not support gambling activity like what is happening in my country.
But since my country is not getting listed as the restricted countries by the casino, so I can find some alternative ways to visit and play in the casino.
It can be by using VPN if it is allowed by the casino or by using mirror links if it is provided by the casino.

I prefer sites which has an ann thread on this forum so that I can look for genuine reviews compared to some random review sites. They will also post their main advantage and disadvantage or if what countries they restrict but this can also be found directly on their website located at the terms and conditions page. When it comes to configuring my own vpn I always choose Singapore and Japan as their speed are very fast.

I only don't know though if users from another country experience the same thing. Can't say as well if Singapore and Japan can bypass a lot of gambling sites because I didn't tried them there yet but I only use a vpn for watching videos and downloading contents.

With multiple scam accusations filed, KYC rejections, and accounts frozen in this forum, I would not advise the OP to use a VPN, not because the IP address may change if he forgets to use a consistent one, but because most of these casinos now require KYC and if you provide incorrect documents, it will be rejected, and you risk losing your money because you will be logged out the moment they discover you are attempting to do something illegal. It is illegal to attempt to gamble online when your government has instructed your ISP not to play. If you continue to try, the casinos have every right to confiscate your account and balance.

True. If you want to see a real world example of the consequences of trying to cheat restrictions imposed by countries on gambling platforms, you don't need to look further, you just have to check this very forum for examples. Those cases alone should be enough to deter you from trying to use VPN to circumvent restrictions. Most gambling platforms explicitly state that the us of VPNs are discouraged but never prohibited, and you will have problems if you try to game the system to cheat the restriction. Better safe than sorry.

Using a VPN to access a casino is not a problem in itself and no casino will ban your account just for that unless it's clearly stated in their ToS that using VPNs is prohibited. The real problem is actually why they are being used. Unfortunately, the majority do not use VPNs for privacy reasons but to circumvent geo restrictions which is a kind of cheating.
Another thing gamblers aren't aware of is that even if your country isn't listed in the list of restricted countries, you're still not allowed to use the casino's services if gambling is prohibited in your country (and the consequences if you get caught are worse).

This is the way to go if OP wanted to have an exclusive IP while using VPN, but I think OP have to buy the service that will host the VPN right?  Anyway, I also have problem accessing slots game due to IP restriction from the slot game provider, and I also have the same concern with regards to using VPN even though I am using the premium one.  I might try this one and see if am knowledgeable enough to setup a personal VPN server.

@OP I would suggest you to spend some money for either premium VPN or this VPN stated by pawanjain.  I believe your country isn't on the list of the restricted region so I don't think you will be banned by using VPN as long as you correctly stated your country on your casino profile.

All depends on the regulation on where a certain gambling site/casino is operating which it would be understandable that they would really be complying on whats been needed and prohibited
because if they dont then for sure it would really be affecting their business.Majority of gambling site nowadays does allow VPN thats why i dont really see this thing to be a major concern
for most people since accessibility isnt really that much a problem since most major or known platforms on gambling field does allow players all around the globe
therefore it wont cause any problems or hesitation that much.

The majority for each gambling site TOS have limited or banned the use of VPNs but in fact it is not really prohibited because many gamblers access it from blacklisted countries, although not prosecuted but it will be detrimental to gamblers if they can win the jackpot in certain events and the team will impose sanctions for being detected access suspicious accounts using VPN or you will have to complete KYC procedures to be able to withdraw funds to your account.

Using a known VPN is a good way to get yourself banned any your funds frozen. I would not risk it at all. Perhaps there is a way with a dedicated VPN IP but I am not really sure how expensive or how difficult going that route would be. Or if it even would work in the long term.

I saw someone advising OP to actually contact the casino to explain the situation. However even in this situation I would be paranoid, if I were OP.

It seems, perhaps only to me, that many if not most online gambling casinos are happy to find any reason to not give you your funds back. And any "suspicious" activity like a VPN or accessing through a country which is banned might lead to something like that.

But then again I cannot really say I have experience like that. Reaching out might be less risky than using a VPN.

I don't know if something like that happened already in the crypto-gambling world but can you name a crypto-gambling platform or crypto-bookies that requires KYC before allowing the withdrawal as that user is using a VPN? If there's none yet, what crypto-gambling sites do have this on their terms?

I think most gambling sites are VPN friendly but obviously, accessing that said gambling site thru a VPN from restricted countries, regions or locations is an obvious red-flagged if got caught. That's a clear violation of the site's Terms and Conditions.

When a casino site requires KYC, the customer can't withdraw their winnings because it can block their account from using a VPN, although some casinos allow their users to use a VPN. And when a user is accused of violating the TOS, it will result in the user's account being inaccessible due to suspicion from the casino. So be careful using a VPN and make sure the IP doesn't change if you want to use a VPN for gambling.

It is important to read the terms and conditions of a gambling website first before actually making a move that could get you into a difficult situation. Reading their TOS to check whether they allow the usage of VPN will save you from future trouble because as we all know, not every casino or gambling website are very much lenient when it comes to the said topic. Some outright prohibits its usage, hence, if caught using one, a severe and irrevocable punishment is given such as permanent banning of your account.

If ever you want to really use a VPN because the gambling site that you want to play on isn't available on your country, then check their policies first to know if it's illegal to them or you can use it, but with reservations. Because if you won't do so and just play impulsively without knowing their rules, you are letting your money be easily snatched away from you.

You mean avoid using a VPN if they didn't allow it and your country is on the restricted list. There are still lots of casinos out there and I am sure that there will always be a casino that will allow our country. If the restriction is caused by an isp then we can try switching on the other isp. Let see if they allow the site or not.

I am sure that each country has more than one isp, that is due to the competition and also to avoid congestion. So far I haven't seen my isp restrict any gambling sites but only some of the porn sites but I don't really care about it since I can still use other xxx sites or can use a VPN and access the blocked sites.

I have seen many cases about blocked withdrawal due to violation of the Terms&Conditions and using VPN raises red flag for team to check your account. Stake casino has blocked few users due to the time difference on browser and the geographic location based on IP address. Ofc, they let you withdraw original deposit amount but you have to prove identity for withdrawing winnings, IMO.

Anything that had been stated on terms and conditions and someone had just violated it then it would really be just normal that they would be asking out for some verification.
Lots had been caught but still they are trying to prove that it was casinos fault and this is where these platforms or businesses should be transparent on telling about the issue
so that it would be clarified out and its true that these issues could really be resulting on affecting sites reputation and credibility.Speaking about ISP block then as a user
which it would be just common sense that you would just simply avoid it and find another one because you are really looking for trouble if you are trying to force out things.

I don't understand why the different times on the browser or geographic location will be subject to blocking since, in the first place, Stake allows the use of a VPN. Isn't it just common that the IP address will be different and so is the location?

Maybe those you are referring to that got blocked accounts are accessing the Stake in a prohibited location that is not allowed by them.

That's only the way to avoid ISP-related issues. Always check if the site allows your country then you are good to go.

Sometimes and in most cases, even I is not reading the terms about using the VPN.

It's just that our country is always friendly towards gambling sites that's why I didn't bother to check that.

I think that's what kamverto is trying to say. If the gambling website or casino already prohibited the usage of VPN, then as responsible gamblers, one must not force to utilize it anymore because doing such despite knowing that it is illegal could let you suffer different consequences. These gambling sites often state directly the things they allow and don't allow in their terms of conditions. By reading that, you will know their policies and regulations to be follow to avoid inconvenience and trouble. Once you know that a certain site is restricted and banned in your country, do not try to use VPN anymore. Just find an alternative platform that will cater your needs so you won't be bothered by future chaos.

Now, if the website you are trying to access is not really restricted in your country, then you should check upon your ISP to know if they restrict or ban the specific website you are trying to access. Because this could be the reason why you can't gain authorization to browse the website. If they do, you can switch to different Internet service provider if you really want to play and gamble to that specific site. Since most of the time there are different ISP available in a country so you can change your provider to cater your needs. But if this isn't on one of your choices, then just look for other gambling websites.

As I have mentioned in my post that there are "free tiers" that are provided by cloud platforms that can be used to setup a VPN server.
There are tutorials on youtube to achieve the same. I have done it once for study purpose and so I can share you the link.
Here the person is using an Amazon AWS cloud with free tier and has configure Open VPN to access the free VPN.

It is true. By reading the TOS, we can find out what we can and can't do if we want to play on that site. Maybe the use of a VPN is allowed but we have to verify if we want to withdraw money there. If so, it won't be good for us because we just gamble like everyone else and don't want to verify our account. That is why reading the TOS is highly recommended to avoid any problems that could result in our account being closed.

In addition, if we want to use a VPN, we can first ask the casino if it is allowed or prohibited and if it is prohibited, we can look for a casino site that allows the use of a VPN.
