If you used multiple accounts to avoid premium charges then you are in trouble. If you haven't done anything wrong, complain to their regulators and take them to court.

make a complaint at sportsbookreview.com.

i would also report them to their regulators - uk gambling commission.

and then take them to court and teach them a lesson.

if it were me I'd be trying everything possible to contact them, live chat or telephone numbers.

about 3 years ago similar happened to me, my account got suspended, eventually after a few weeks I got it sorted,
turned out a criminal tried to access my account, well they told me they did and made some small transactions,
befair claimed they spotted this? my account had to be closed and a new one opened.

I only got to find this out by eventually getting them on livechat

hello, so you are trying to contact them via online chat from your account and they do not allow you?
i would recommend you to access betfair page without logging in with your credentials  and try live chat...

See my thread "Betfair are scum".  They will release your funds eventually, they just want to know every detail about your financial life and bets. 

I made the mistake of telling them I was an arber, then they requested every contra bet on many markets, because I couldn't provide them with betting shop slips they closed my account but did thankfully return the funds.

Better to say you are a gambler, only use Betfair, then they may only require SOW that you can afford your betting/trading amounts.

Betfair really are scum though, hope you get your funds back.  My load of BS took almost 4 months by the way.
