I'm expecting a similar trouble.
Here's the story:
After cleaning up the 1-st deposit bonus, I ordered a cashout of $16258.06 (2015-10-12), on the day after that my withdrawal was denied and I got the message from
cashier@chicopokernetwork.com, which said, leaving aside all the polite stuff, that:
"Our security system detected that you have had negative evidence added to your profile from another poker room.
Could you please advise why they would have added your account as high risk?"
The dialogue developed like that:
My answer:
I've been successfully playing at PartyPoker from 2009, PokerStars from, I guess, 2010, 888poker since 2013. I've recently (august 2015) registered at some iPoker rooms: CoralPoker, GalaPoker and TitanPoker. But I didn't like it in there, so I ordered cashouts quite quickly.
Why my account may be marked as high risk... Well, let's see. I had an issue with 888poker and PartyPoker, when I ordered a cashout while being in Poland. That resulted in mindblowing phone bills for me trying (successfully) to prove that was a legit cashout ordered by me. I also made some sports bets at 888poker and William Hill (registered from approximately 2013). Those sports bets were profitable (even highly profitable at William Hill), if that means anything. William Hill even made it impossible for me to make any more sports bets. Still, I could deposit, cashout and play poker with them!
In general, I've never had global troubles with any poker room.
It doesn't seem that I've sent you my documents, so I attach scans of my passport and utility bill.
If you need anything else - please, contact me!
Support:
Thank you for the reply.
We have received your ID document in good order, however the utility bill is out of date, please resend a bill not older than three months.
Then in regards to the blacklisting, it was added by Coral Interactive on August 22 2015, and it was added to the device you use.
Me:
Thank you for the quick answer!
Here's the bill for July (I received it in August, so I hope it counts).
Concerning Coral - August 22 2015 is the day when I passed the security check.
I attach all the letters I received from Coral on August 22 and August 23.
As I remember, I made some sports bets via Coral, which resulted in a letter from them (the first, 3-Kb one, dated August 23).
I hope it solves our issue.
As always, if you need anything else - please, message me.
Thank you in advance.
Support:
Thank you for the reply.
Could you please resend the utility bill. The part where your details are printed seems to be a bit blurry. The date range is fine on the utility bill.
In regards to the betting incident at Coral. You were black listed for Arbitrage Betting? Could you elaborate why they would restrict you?
Me:
Here is another photo of the utility bill.
Yes, arbitrage betting could be the reason, even though Coral didn't specify it in any of their letters. I used betting advisor which included arbitrage situations.
Support:
Thank you for getting back to us.
Any situation related to credit card deposits?
Me:
Yes, I tried to deposit a few times using my debit VISA card. Was unable to do so, got an e-mail saying that I had to verify my card first, but decided like "ah, whatever, I'll get paid on Skrill soon, then I will make that deposit". Which was exactly what I did.
I'm sending you photos of my VISA card and even me holding my VISA card.
Please, contact me asap, 'cause I'm very interested in solving this issue fast.
Thank you.
Me:
P.S. to my previous message:
The whole situation described was with TigerGaming. Never had any troubles using my VISA card with any other poker room - including Coral (didn't even use VISA with them).
In the meantime, I stubbornly ordered another two withdrawals, both were denied. The last denial letter specified, that my request was "Exceeding maximum withdrawal amount of $5000 per 7 day cycle". Ok, I ordered another withdrawal of $8030, which is equal to $5000 plus the total value of my deposits in the last 30 days. These conditions ("The current maximum withdrawal on poker winnings are $5,000 a week or a total of $15,000 per 30 days, plus the total value of your deposits (last 30 days).") are posted here:
http://www.tigergaming.com/withdrawal-limits
After that, I sent a message:
Me:
My last two withdrawal attempts were denied because those were "Exceeding maximum withdrawal amount of $5000 per 7 day cycle". Could I please get my cashout limits increased? For now, I need to cashout $15300.
Thanks in advance!
Got replied!
Support:
Unfortunately no exception in relation to the withdrawal limits will be made.
The maximum withdrawal amount per 7 days is $5000 with a maximum of $15000 per 30 day cycle.
We are still investigating the issue with Coral Interactive at this moment.
Me:
As I understood from what is written at tigergaming.com, I can now withdraw a maximum of $5000 + the total amount of my deposits in the last 30 days. Is this correct? Or is it only $5000, and only the monthly limit is increased by my total amount of deposits?
Also, let's speak straight - what does Coral blacklisting have to do with my playing with you? Have I violated any terms of YOUR terms and conditions? Will it somehow affect my cashout requests and how long is your investigation going to take?
As I'm getting quite irritated by the whole story, I'm going to post it on twoplustwo and other poker communities in order to get some information from people who had the same issues and warn them about what troubles they may face playing with you.
Thanks for your understanding.
Looking forward to your reply.
So, I'm here. I've never had such attitude from ANY poker room! And looks like I have to warn people who're going to play with TigerGaming (or Chico in general), that your relations with other poker rooms and bookmakers may somehow count! Even if you didn't violate anything on Chico or any other poker rooms - a mark of "High risk" on your account seems to be enough! Of course, only after you deposit, win some (and God save you from winning a lot!) and order a cashout!

In regards to the withdrawal limits. The limits remain at $5000 per 7 days up to a maximum amount of $15000 per 30 days.
However if you have made deposits in the applicable 30 day cycle you will be allowed to request additional withdrawals in the amount of your deposits, up to a maximum of $5000 per 7 days and $15000 per 30 days.
In regards to your Coral Interactive status, your account has been updated and currently cleared. However seeing as you have a blacklisting against you, your account will be fully scrutinized with any withdrawal.
We hope you understand this is standard security procedures.
Looks promising. Fixed my cashout order to be $5000. Awaiting results. Still, got many of my precious brain cells eaten by stress. Hope this story helps someone spare some nerves in a similar situation or avoid it in the first place.
Will update the post as soon as I get news.
