This basically isn't just in the gambling industry  alone, because it takes a mentally stable individual with a good money management skills to be able to succeed in life generally.
I will always say that people should rather work on their greed and contentment level and it is also true that money, wealth and power is never satisfactory but we should always get to know when to stop and when to play and we should.also learn to appreciate every win as a win rather than wanting to make millions from  bets made in hundreds.
Greed and contentment  are two great factors that shoukd be considered when we want to make positive growth while gambling.

Well I'm already feeling skeptical about this whole issue and i think it is taking so long than expected and the fact that people already reported  that they receive  their pending withdrawals is a good news and hope from their end but they should  at least make a post on their thread to keep the hope of their players who are already growing impatient and we wouldn't  have to blame them, we all know how gambling winnings goes  because no one wants their money to be held.
I think they Informed their customers  through their sites but their patients couldn't hold any longer as the process was taking too longer than expected.
Op receiving his money was a clear evidence that the company is working and hoping to get everything fixed from my personal observations.

I guess op thinks claiming referral  bonuses  are impossible but the truth is that they are actually possible  to claim but it all depends in how much gamblers you know and how much community of people you have and I've also seen some online commendy skits where comedians display their referral  links and codes and always make adverts with them and I believe  they should getting some engagements from that too and you should know that It must have taken a while lot of effort to grow such pages
I've always been on the stand that referral  bonuses  on gambling is always very tasking and anyone getting involved should be ready to do the work.

I know of how hard or easy it will be for  Anthony Joshua to KO Whyte in this match because i believe this is a rematch and a chance for whyte to right his wring with also capitalizing on the changes Anthony Joshua I've got now and I also though I was the only one who  noticed the changes with Anthony Joshua but regardless  of this, I don't think Anthony  will be willing to leave any stone unturned as he might still want to maintain his name.
I've been a great fan of Anthony  Joshua  but I don't think this match would be an easy one for either of them and if Anthony isn't careful and take this match gently,  then he shouldn't be surprised  if he losses to Whyte.

There are supposed to be profits as well as losses  in a business  and the casino isn't exempted  on this losses.
Rather than wanting to deduct this winnings which is already settled, why not count it as loss and if the casino can easily just temper with my betting balance without getting permissions from me then, I wouldn't have to see them or consider them as trustworthy because every civilized person is supposed to follow due process and not just temper with a winning that was already settled to me.

If they already making withdrawals from accounts with available balance,  then what happens to those accounts that the withdrawal  has already been made ?

I don't think the idea of wanting to beat all previous records of winning through performance enhancement drugs is a good one because i don't aso think anyone will accept this results except there is a category  for this kind  of winnings.
And I see this as not right for the Olympics to consider this kind of games and it's  results because I believe that just as our faces and body stature are different,  same thing also applies  to our body system and how it absorbs things because it might take another person 2 hours for a drug to get activated while it might take another person lesser or longer time to activate same drugs  and I believe  when judging this results, it will be based on the dosage given forgetting this setback I mentioned above, hence I'm not in favour that the Olympics support this kind of sport.

Bitter truth.
No one will easily stop gambling because someone else don't like it, there are people who have been disowned by their families  because of gambling and Invariably this persons abandoned by their family choosed gambling over their families and that's a clear sign of how addictive gambling can be and it's  not ending anything soon.
Alot of people take gambling beyond fun and there are people who live their lives from winnings from gambling and it will definitely  for such persons  to quit gambling.
Irrespective  of the class of gamblers we fall, it is always difficult to quit gambling  knowing  fully well that it can fetch us money without much physical effort.

I guess someone is already having a bad time with another casino and I hope your case gets looked into before you get out of control and based on all you've said, it will be better if you get some evidence and proves to your claims so as to give people more clue to what you claimed happened.

@op 6 months is a hell lot of time to keep waiting for a resolution  and from the look of things,  it seems the investigation isn't done directly by the company  but a third party because if it was to be done by the casino then it wouldn't take upto such long wait depending  on what case they might be investigating.
@op it seems you already got the needed answers and solutions you desired and it wouldn't be a bad idea if you lock this thread now.

Referral  bonuses aren't no players entitlement  and it's a form of promotions and since the gambling  company is in business, you don't expect them to pump in money into what wouldn't be beneficial and if the Referral  bonuses isn't beneficial to the casino then they will definitely  seek a  way to stop it and channel such energy into something more profitable. I've always known that claiming this Referral  bonuses wouldn't be an easy idea and that's why I don't even have to bother myself claiming  them  because I know  I'm not good with marketing and I don't also have a circle of gamblers neither do I have a community of persons who would want to take any gambling advice from me so I had to let chasing after Referral bonuses slip.

Memecoins are very dangerous to invest into because they're more volatile than Bitcoin and other altcoins that aren't memecoins. Memecoins can pump and dump very fast and if you're not actively monitoring the market, you might miss out on a good chance of selling and be left with worthless tokens that you don't know if it can pump again.
It'll be very difficult to know the next pepecoin because before you get to know about the memecoins, it would had already increase multiple times. Instead of looking for the next memecoins you can use this opportunity that the market is very down to buy altcoins that has lost so much value but has potential of pumping in the future.
If you want to risk your money you can be active on crypto twitter to see what's trending as new coins like memecoins starts to trend and from there more investors get to know about the project and invest in it. Many projects are scam so you have to be cautious unless you'll lose your money to scammers that create this scam memecoins.

Altcoins are very important in the market because they give us an alternative to investing in the cryptocurency market than just investing in bitcoin. Some days Bitcoin loses its high volatility as there's no movement in the price that gives investor good profits but altcoins can give good profits in those months and that's why they're important.
Altcoins also bring many things to the industry like how Ethereum brought smart contract that has been used in building many decentralized applications and other altcoins has things they're working on that Bitcoin can't do. Bitcoin is only a currency but altcoins have different functions that make the industry very interesting.
Stablecoin which is also an altcoins helps us in keeping the profits we have made from the market very secured. Without stablecoin it would had been hard to keep profits we made. Many exchange could have found it difficult to get approval to use fiat currency but with stablecoin that are on the blockchain, it makes it easier for them.

Poor grammar, spelling or anything that doesn't have to do directly with the project doesn't mean the project is a scam. Sometimes it might be they hired an unqualified community managers and they haven't noticed the manager to be inexperienced for the job. The management of social media is a community manager Jobs.
Some projects teams are anonymous but that shouldn't mean they're a scam, nobody knows Bitcoin founder but bitcoin isn't a scam and we have some other projects like Shiba Inu and they aren't scam. Some projects founder don't like to be the face of their invention but allow the community to be incharge.
Any project that has fake endorsement is a scam, as no real project will want to associate their projects with fake things knowing that if they get caught they'll lose their trustworthiness from their community but scam projects don't care, they're just lookimg for ways to trend so they can get more victims to scam.

I'm not sure if you'll get the possible solution you seek from this blank complain because how on earth do you expect people to give you solutions when you didn't even mention the name of the competition or even show proves to your claims.
Now  let me advise  that it will be better if you try getting in touch with organizers of this competition  which you said you already did and if there isn't no respond  after sever attempt, then you should atleast let people know of the name of the competition  so as to help tag it a scam to avoid others from  falling into similar situations.
I will be glad if the thread is updated frequently  so as to keep the community  and forum aware of the situation.
Goodluck.

From what op said, I don't think there should be a form of prove except we try out the games ourselves, but op i hate it when people come out to speak ill of others businesses especially  in an open space like this which you know isn't right at all.
I haven't used BC games but I've known them on the forum to be cool  and I want to know if you ever tried contacting  them and I wouldn't have to blame them if there are cases that seem like this because I'm sure they know it will be a bad reputation  for them as a company  if players always complain of losses and if coin flip which is a random game has such issue, what they would simply  do is contact the game provider and that should do the trick.
But there is one thing I've also noticed in gambling,  when the losses are getting much, gamblers begin to feel cheated and I hope that's not the case with op.

There is always favoritism in almost everything  we do in life and that's also gambling inclusive and for several reasons people would want to favour a particular  team or sport over another and for me, one of the major reason I always prefer a particular sport over another is the reason you mentioned above, and I also believe that would also be similar  reason with others, because it will always be best when one sticks to  what they know especially  when making bets.
Away from choosing  a particular  sport over the other, i think choosing  a team over another is one of the case scenarios as most gamblers are die hard fans of a team and will always bet in favour of the team when the case arises.
But truth be told that, I basically don't let favoritism bother me when making bets because I always have the consciousness of making profit irrespective of what sport and game I'm betting on.

To the best of my ability,  I've always seen gambling especially sport betting as strictly a game of luck and I've always believed that it has been programmed for games to always have greater house edge over players.
This very option  and opinion of mine is backed by the fact that the casino  is in business and anyone in business is expected to be making profits and not losses and if people are winning on them, then they should  be considered lucky  and not skilled because it is luck based to me and not skills.
And with all this been said, I believe it is hard to beat a sport book expect there is a great strategy  already in ground.

That is a personal question  for the gambler because how his expected to pay the money is no man's business,  and what is exoectedbis that he pays the money in whatever way he hopes to pay.
Now I believe the bet shop attendant allowed the gambler play games upto such amount because of trust and let the principles of preferential treatment  come to play but I'm sure the gambler missed used this trust now and it will be very hard for that shop  and it's attendants to trusybsuch a person  again. I think the best way to recover this money is to hold some valuables from the gambler possibly worthing thrice the amount gambled, and this will give him the drive to repay his debt.

Currently  I don't intend taking gambling  anything seriois than this because Currently  I'm enjoying  all the moments I have now there isn't any need for unnecessary pressure.
I don't personally have any fixed or strict principles  for gambling  because Currently  I'm sure that im not using any reasonable  amount of money for gambling  no matter how tempting that game might look so im not tied to wanting to have a fixed bankroll for gambling .
I don't know if I enjoy gambling while listening  to music or in a quite place bjt what truly matters is that im doing  what pleases me at that time.
And I also don't have any fixed date for gambling, I just make some picks when I see wbays right for me.

Funny and weird right?

I'm glad you already identified  that you're putting  some unnecessary  pressure on yourself which wasn't right and that pressure alone can lead to chasing loses and revenge  gambling  which is very much frowned at in the forum becausebthe results are always tragedic and always leads to blowing of ones account.
I have a gambling scenario  that keeps happening  to me which is the attempt to always want to increase my leverage  whenever  I have a large capital  and most times infeel the casino is spying  in my balance  as it seems my losses are too much when my capital is high and it always seems difficult for me to desist from this act to increasing my leverage when my capital is high.

I don't know how this gambling things actually work especially  when it comes with winning big,  but common sensically, I think any tocket should have an expiring date and 6 months is a very long time to stay dormant  and I've read of threads where gamblers have to pay some fees for dormancy and some  casino also have some very strict terms for dormant accounts even upto  seizing all the available balance left after dormancy.
But just as my curiosity  has always been eben of the previous threads,  I want to know what a person must have been doing to have forgotten  an account with balance on it for over 6 months and then suddenly  remember and expect full payment without any charges
