Interesting facts:
as for their activity in regards to promotion, that's all the activity there is. What about user complaints, court cases, dispute resolution?
Sadly, Your issue is happening behind while the majority here doesn’t have any problem on BC at all. I don’t want to defend BC against their existing case but it’s already being handled legally so let’s just wait what will be the outcome for your legal battle against.
BC is known for resolving all their issue in the past here no matter what is the amount.
Keep us updated.
Actually, there is a vast majority of having issues like me, they (same as I until recently) were never aware of BitcoinTalk or raising our complaints publicly. On the other hand, if you check all recent cases of players v bc.game (except latest one), it appears as if every single case was rejected either here or through ADR, so while you might have positive overview of BC.game operations, that might be just lack of information provided publicly.
As for me and my legal battle, I already won once in Curacao, but they fled the jurisdiction and never paid to single claimant (references:
https://next.io/news/regulation/bc-game-withdraws-curacao-gaming-licence/ &
https://next.io/news/regulation/bc-game-declared-bankrupt/) or even more recent, non-existent legal entity in Belize?
If I go even further, there are at least two dozen cases pending in SBGOK Foundation and who knows how many at LMS Advocaten (ex-lawyer of foundation).
Let me actually prove my theory:
Lets do comparison between Stake and BCgame. Reason for putting Stake is because of their industry dominance according to Tanzanite (close to 10x more deposits than BC.game).
Now lets look at their stats at ADRs:
Casino.guruStake - total 274 complaints
BCgame Casino - 534 total complaints
AskGamblersStake - 36 total
Bcgame - 316 total
So, you want to tell me that the
industry dominant casino, who has more player base, far more deposits has less complaints than the BCgame and it's just coincidence?
Or that most of resolutions are dismissed immediately? Or bankruptcy ruling was just in vain? Same goes for their avoidance of legal battle in Curacao and "appeal" that never happened?
Come. On.
The image being portrayed is definitely as though you are attacking him (even if the intention is the opposite).
As for him working as a public relations person for BC Game, it is not true. BC Game is not the only casino that has scam accusations against them and holydarkness has been active in many scam accusation threads about different casinos too. He volunteers a lot of his time trying to resolve cases, at least that should be acknowledged rather than his reputation being called in to question.
Well, the difference would be through my posts and actions. I am not using that feedback to attack hd, I am simply stating that he is acting as their public relations person (which, he is, as he is handling basically all of their scam accusation threads for them in the exact same way as if he were to be employed by them to do so).
This is my opinion on holydarkness, and that's based on his previous work as well as work on my case in [Scam Accusation] forum:
He took most underappreciated position in this forum. Period.
I completely understand what he put himself into by "mediating" between two parties and I very much appreciate what he's been doing in my case and many others. Already stated couple of times once my case is solved, I will be compensating him properly.
Now, lets go into his "title" as a mediator: Unfortunately, taking this responsibility, he's been put into difficult position to substantiate operators' accusations against players. Issue with his position bears responsibility of not being able to disclose evidence, and that's somewhat understandable - privacy reasons.
The problem with all of that comes when both parties claims innocence and yet both parties have strong arguments against each other (like in mine case specifically). So on one hand, he is supposed to lean to the players' side, who he (in most cases) just "met" (and in my case, has very fishy history) or, on the other side, to the operator who has established "reputation" (so to say) and believe what he is seeing is accurate information. If I was in his place, I would probably mostly do the same thing (lean towards the operators) in most cases.
There are times at which @holydarkness slightly takes casinos' side too soon, but that only presents the problem to the people who actually has something to hide. From my side, even though he had seen evidence proving otherwise, and his findings are against me, at the end of it, there was no ill intention. He did his job decently (imho), I respected it even though it's not the outcome I'd wanted, but at the end I had low hopes on it from a very beginning. Not because of him, but because I am aware of what BCgame is doing.
Something I never brought on my case is following page:
https://bc.game/help/blockdance. If you go through page, it is agreement "valid for players who signed up before April 30 2024", which includes me. When did this page went live? September 14, weeks before first bankruptcy hearing.
Their defense in my case? I was registered before April 30th and Blockdance BV (which is just another shell company) was liable for my winnings. Even though all liabilities said company had up to that date were settled and my $1.5m winnings occured between May and June. Thankfully, they were stupid enough to provide sales agreement to which liability now goes directly to the Cypriot company.
But that's whole other story of me proving their evidence fabrication.
My opinion - main court is media and community.
BC.game fucked all regulators (bc did not paid to Spanish regulator as I know and still to the UK regulator).
My registration was Nov 2, 2023. But I did not use account regularly.
