Hello everyone, I have an addiction problem, and support isn't giving me the OK regarding my desperate request, telling them I'm a compulsive gambler. I tried through live chat, asking for self-exclusion approximately 5 times... they wouldn't respond, they just left my message read. Two days ago, I tried again, and they made countless excuses to keep me, telling me to think it over... but I don't want to think about anything; I want them to refund everything I lost. I've been asking for self-exclusion for months, and they never help me. My user ID at the 1win casino is: 81409897.


Below, I’m attaching all the messages I had... Today, they blocked my account because I said I would take further action, but in the span of a month talking to support, I lost more than 2,500,000 ARS in the account.

Dear erickpowcam93,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with 1win Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can better understand the situation. 

  • Have you informed the casino about any gambling problems?
  • Have you requested a refund of your lost funds already? With what result?
  • Could you please share your communication with the casino? Send emails or chat transcripts to my email at tomas@casino.guru, or post screenshots here

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Tomas, here are the conversations with the casino, I had several in the live chat, but they are not saved there, two or three times I asked for my account to be closed due to problems with the game and they never gave me attention, only the fourth time I asked, threatening that I was going to go legally against the casino, only then did they close my account, but in that period, I bet 2,500,000 on my addiction, today I am already self-excluded, I want a refund as compensation for not having given me attention... here I attach the conversations.


Every time I request self-exclusion, the only thing that support answers me is:

We are sorry to hear that you wish to permanently close your account. In order to improve our services and understand the reasons behind this decision, we would like to ask: What was the reason that led you to make this decision?


And from then on they don't respond anymore, I answer and they don't read the messages anymore, I have problems, I am facing a desperate problem, and I don't know how to handle it, I lost all my money.

NEW RESPONSE FROM 1WIN CASINO:

Regarding the closure of your account, I ask you to reconsider. You can still take advantage of various promotions such as our bonus codes, daily lottery and other bonuses at Freemoney.


Plus, you'd be missing out on the chance to take part in this month's amazing Lucky Drive promotion! We're raffling off two luxury convertibles, a BMW 840i and a Mercedes-Benz GT, as well as 51 Apple devices: 25 iPhone 15 Pro Max, 25 MacBook Pros, and the grand prize Apple Vision Pro for the most active player. Have you ever imagined winning one of these amazing prizes?


IS IT A JOKE??????????????? that's how they make fun of the problem player

1win casino:

I would like to highlight what section 27 of our Terms and Conditions says:

Within 14 days of receipt, the complaint will be examined and the customer will be notified of the outcome of his/her case. If further inspection is necessary, we are entitled to extend the order consideration period for another 30 days from receipt.


Me: From 14 to 30 days to give me self-exclusion? Don't you see that I have addiction problems, I can't stand that long.


1win casino:

We understand your concern, but the 14-30 day self-exclusion period is a policy set by the platform and is clearly outlined in our terms and conditions. This measure is intended to ensure that all customers have adequate time to reflect on their decisions.


Basically, between 14 and 30 days... since I have an addiction, I will continue gambling, losing money, and the casino doesn't care. That is why I excluded myself and I am asking for that monetary compensation.

Thanks for your response.

We believe that if you inform the casino about an addiction, gambling problems, or a struggle to control your gambling in a self-exclusion or account closure request, the casino should permanently protect you from further gambling.

When the casino asks you for a reason for account closure/self-exclusion it serves you as the opportunity to guarantee this protection.

  • Have you explicitly informed the casino about suffering from gambling addiction in your communication to the casino?

Of course I reported it! In my previous response is the entire last chat... the texts in bold, are the casino's response ... inciting me to stay and continue losing money, offering raffles, in that period of more than 5 hours of trying to cancel, I bet a lot of money... approximately 2000 usd, and I lost it, that's why I'm asking for that money... the account has already been closed, but the casino expected me to lose more money to do so, regardless of my status.

I made the requests through live chat support, I no longer have access because the account was blocked... I don't know how to recover that... it seems impossible to me since they gave me self-exclusion, but until they actually blocked it I continued betting money like crazy, without thinking

Dear erickpowcam93,

I'm Kubo, and I will be taking care of your complaint from now on. If there have been any new updates regarding this case since the last information provided, please let me know.

I would like to invite the 1win Casino's representatives to join this discussion and provide any available information to help resolve this issue.


Dear 1win Casino,

Could you please provide detailed information regarding this case? Specifically, I would like to understand why the player's requests to close his account were not honored. Additionally, it’s concerning that support attempted to persuade the player to reconsider his decision by promoting bonuses, despite the player clearly expressing his gambling problem.

Thank you in advance for your response!


Best Regards,

Kubo
