Concerns regarding account access, profile information, username changes, or account suspension/termination.

3 Dispute Resolution Process

Submission

User submits a dispute through our designated channels (email, in-app support, or website contact form), providing all relevant details and any supporting evidence.

Acknowledgment

We acknowledge receipt of the dispute within 24 hours and provide a reference number for tracking purposes.

Investigation

Our specialist team investigates the dispute, reviewing all relevant data, game logs, transaction records, and other applicable information.

Resolution

Based on the investigation findings, we make a decision and communicate it to the user, along with an explanation of the reasoning behind the decision.

Appeal (if applicable)

If the user is dissatisfied with the resolution, they may request an appeal within 7 days, which will be reviewed by a senior member of our team.

Note: The time required to resolve disputes varies depending on the complexity of the issue. We strive to resolve all disputes within 15 business days, though more complex cases may require additional time.

4 Game-Related Disputes

For disputes related to gameplay, our approach includes:

  • Log Analysis: We maintain detailed logs of all games played on our platform. These logs record every action taken during a game, allowing us to reconstruct the exact sequence of events in case of a dispute.
  • Technical Verification: Our technical team verifies whether any system errors or connectivity issues may have affected the game outcome.
  • Fair Play Review: We assess whether all players adhered to our fair play policies during the disputed game.
  • Resolution Criteria: Decisions are based on objective evidence from our system logs and the specific circumstances of each case.

Example Scenario

If a player reports that they were disconnected during a crucial point in a game and lost as a result, we would:

  1. Check our server logs to verify the disconnection
  2. Determine if the disconnection was due to our system or the player's connection
  3. Review the game state at the time of disconnection
  4. Apply our disconnection policy based on these findings

5 Payment Disputes

For disputes related to payments, deposits, withdrawals, or account balance, we follow these procedures:

  • Transaction Verification: We review our payment gateway logs and banking records to verify the details of the transaction in question.
  • Documentation: Users may be required to provide supporting documentation, such as bank statements or payment receipts, to help resolve the dispute.
  • Resolution Timeline: Payment disputes are typically resolved within 7-10 business days, depending on the complexity and the responsiveness of third-party payment processors.

Important: To expedite the resolution of payment disputes, please include transaction IDs, payment method details, date and time of transaction, and screenshots of payment confirmations (if available) when submitting your dispute.

6 Fair Play Violations

We take fair play very seriously and have robust systems in place to detect and prevent unfair practices. For disputes related to fair play violations:

  • Detection Systems: We use advanced algorithms and monitoring systems to detect patterns that may indicate unfair play or collusion.
  • Investigation Process: Reports of unfair play undergo thorough investigation, including review of gameplay patterns, communication between players, and historical gameplay data.
  • Actions Taken: If violations are confirmed, actions may include warnings, temporary suspension, permanent account termination, and/or forfeiture of winnings, depending on the severity and frequency of the violation.

Fair Play Protections

  • Real-time monitoring of gameplay patterns
  • IP and device tracking to prevent multiple accounts
