Dafabet account restricted or suspended

Dafabet logo

Lost access to your Dafabet account unexpectedly? This can come as a real shock – especially if you have funds locked into the account.

In this article we’re going to look at how and why Dafabet restricts user accounts, and what steps you can take if you want to recover your account.

Types of Dafabet account restrictions

Dafabet will typically attempt to notify you when it slaps a restriction on your account, and this message should provide you with more information on the reasons for the restriction. However, it is also easy to tell what type of restriction you are under from the type of access you have to your account.

Suspension

If your Dafabet account has been suspended you will still be able to log into your account, but will not be able to transact on it in any way – so no bets, withdrawals or deposits will be permitted until the issue causing the suspension has been resolved.

Account closure

Serious violations of Dafabet’s terms of service will result in closure of your account. In these cases you will be unable to login to your account at all. Depending on the type of violation you committed you may also lose access to your funds.

Reasons for Dafabet account restriction

Dafabet provides a simple and easy to understand list of prohibited practises:

  • underage gambling
  • abuse of bonuses or other promotion
  • any form of cheating or rigging results
  • exploiting loopholes or system errors to unfair advantage
  • opening duplicate accounts
  • undertaking fraudulent practice or criminal activity

How to recover access to your Dafabet account

If your Dafabet account is closed it is unlikely you will be able to recover the account. However, suspensions on accounts may be reversed if you communicate with customer support.

If you believe your account has been wrongfully suspended or closed you should:

  1. Check your inbox for an account suspension or closure notification email from Dafabet. This will explain what happened to your account.
  2. Contact customer support to lodge a dispute or get more information.

Dafabet support is accessible through their website using email, live chat or social media. You can email them on ensupport@dafabet.com, go straight to live chat, fill in a contact form here or message them on Facebook.

What to do if you are unable to recover your Dafabet account

Dafabet is a fairly basic bookmaker by the standards of industry leaders, and there is no reason for you to waste time trying to get your account back if you can get much better service and perks from the industry leaders.

The following bookies are recognized for their fair treatment of honest users:

  • Bet365, the undisputed leader in online sports betting
  • Boylesports, a top Irish bookie with outstanding daily betting specials.
  • William Hill, one of the oldest and biggest betting brands on the planet

What to do if you have funds locked into your Dafabet account

Dafabet has more punitive policies than most when it comes to retrieving funds from closed accounts. Violating its terms of service will, depending on the nature and severity of your violation, result in any active bets and bonuses being voided, and your funds withheld.

This is considerably stricter than the majority of UK based bookies, who will only withhold funds if there is evidence of criminal or fraudulent activity on your account, and you should therefore take the following steps to recover your funds if they are not paid out after account closure.

  1. Send Dafabet an email requesting a payout of funds held in your account. Ensure you keep a record of this. You’ll then need to give them 8 weeks to process your request.
  2. If after 8 weeks your funds have not been paid out contact http://www.resolver.co.uk/ and request that they reach out to Dafabet on your behalf.
  3. If Resolver is unable to assist, you can contact the UK’s Independent Betting Adjudication Services (IBAS) for assistance. Their email is adjudication@ibas-uk.co.uk.
  4. If you are unable to access your funds after going through this process you have the option of contacting the United Kingdom Gambling Commission. If this activity is in violation of Dafabet’s license terms the UKGC is able to take action against them. However, it will not act on your particular dispute.

How to avoid having your Dafabet or betting accounts restricted in future

Dafabet has severe penalties for violations of its T&Cs, you should therefore:

  • Provide accurate information on signup
  • Never engage in illegal activity on the website
  • Not sign up for duplicate accounts
  • Never attempt to exploit loopholes in the system.
