Failed self-exclusion

UNRESOLVED

Case summary

9 months ago

The player from Spain had requested a refund because he was able to open a new account after self-excluding from the 22bet Casino due to gambling problems. The casino had responded by stating that the player violated their rules by creating a duplicate account and they did not process requests for the return of played funds. Despite the player's insistence that all provided data was genuine, the casino maintained their stance. The Complaints Team had highlighted contradictions in the casino's responsible gambling policy and recommended the player to contact the regulator in Curacao. The complaint was closed as unresolved, waiting for the regulator's decision.

Good night,


I am here to file a complaint regarding the betting site bet 22.


I had an account that I requested, via CHAT, to be blocked for having problems with the game. Blocked instantly. It turns out that some time later the casino allowed me to open a new account again, with the same data.


I need your help because this house does not protect the players, and having a problem with the game I spent a lot of money that I demand that the house bet 22 return it to me.


they closed my account when I said I wanted to file a claim and wanted a refund of all money spent at the casino.


can you help me pls? In the CHAT they stopped answering me and they don't tell me what to do.


I intend to have all the values of the shipments returned to me.


thanks in advance for your help.

Hello MariaLuz,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with 22bet Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

Could you please advise if you closed your first account or self excluded yourself? What is your current balance on your second casino account? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

Hi,


I requested self-exclusion as I was not able to control my deposits.


my current balance was 0€. And I spoke to them yesterday, and they said they were going to close my new account because I had asked to self-delete my old account. First they let me create a new account, earn with all my deposits and then close the account.


I need your help to get all my deposits back, they didn't guarantee player safety.


Thanks

Dear MariaLuz,

Unfortunately, I would like to inform you that since this casino has 15+ cases closed as "No Reaction Policy" we are forced to close your complaint as "unresolved". This will affect the overall rating of the casino. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue however, the decrease in rating caused by unresolved complaints could change the casino's approach.

Regrettably, it seems to be a common practice of 22bet Casino to ignore us completely in our attempts to mediate any kind of issue. Please check all our previous failed attempts to negotiate. We have sent numerous emails and tried to communicate with live chat representatives as well as with affiliate team members. Unfortunately, all efforts to resolve any kind of issue have died as the complaints grew in numbers. We strictly recommend staying away from 22bet Casino. My only recommendation would be to try to contact the casino directly. However, please bear in mind that they are not obliged to keep this kind of information. I wish I could be of more help.

 

The casino can reopen this complaint anytime.

Dear 22bet casino representative,


The player has mentioned that she closed her account due to a gambling problem and later used the same information to create another account.


Could you please clarify whether the player used genuine personal data or provided fake information when creating the second account?

Hello! 

We noticed that the player used different information to create fake accounts, only the name and date of birth were the same.

Dear 22bet casino,


Could you please provide clear information on which data was falsified? Additionally, I would like to mention that it is not considered fraudulent for one person to use multiple email addresses, as long as all the emails belong to that individual.


Thank you.

Hi. We strictly enforce our platform's security rules and policies.

We would like to clarify a little bit. If a player's mail and phone are activated, they cannot be specified on another account.


As for the rest of the data, they can be the same for people.

Regarding payments: If a document number or a wallet matches, it will be noticed and restrictions will be applied. However, in the case of cards, the support only sees the mask (the first 6 and the last 4 digits of the card - to ensure the safety of the player), and they can't be sure from the mask that it is the addict's account. The mask is 10 digits. There are 16-18 on the card. Therefore, it is incorrect to ban by mask, because it may affect other players who have nothing to do because the number of variants with invisible for the platform 6-8 digits is huge. 


When a player is recognized as a duplicate by the manner of play or verification, he is banned. The player must follow the rules of the casino, where he is responsible for not having the right to create duplicates.

Dear Casino representative,


The content you are writing contradicts the responsible gambling section in the terms of 22bet casino. I would like to draw your attention to this particular section:


We will do our best to prevent you from creating new accounts and block new ones. Your account will be automatically unblocked after the selected time period ends. To have this option enabled, please contact us via block@22bet.com. During the self-exclusion period, you must not attempt to open a new Account and you must accept that the Company shall have no financial liability and shall not be held otherwise accountable if you continue gambling or using a new Account with the Service under a different name or address.


I would like to mention that players who admit to gambling addiction suffer from an urge to gamble, and it is obvious that they will try to gamble somehow. They try to unblock their account or create a new account if the old one is blocked. I also do not understand how your system should work when the casino is protecting players based on email and phone number. One person can have multiple emails or phone numbers.


On the other hand, during registration, you ask players to provide their email, name, surname, and date of birth. 

file


A full name with date of birth is a unique identifier based on which many other self-exclusion schemes are working, togather with physical address.


All this information is available to fill in the profile. 

file


I believe that 22bet casino's responsible gambling policy, especially the protection of gambling addicted players, is set wrongly, and these players were harmed by the casino.


Dear MariaLuz,


I would recommend you to contact the regulator with this case. If you would like, there is an organization in Curacao fighting against injustice in gambling (lawyers) which takes similar cases to court for free. I can give you a contact if you are interested.

Dear Mmll,


Thank you for the confirmation. Unfortunately, it may take up to 3 months for the regulator to make a decision. I will now close this complaint as unresolved with the status: waiting for regulator's decision.


Please reopen the complaint when the regulator sends you the final decision, or the complaint will be automatically reopened after three months.

Dear Mmll,
We hope this finds you well. We would like to ask you to provide an update regarding this case, which was previously marked as "Waiting for Regulator" on our website. Your complaint has now been automatically reopened, and we are eager to know if there have been any recent developments or resolutions since our last communication.
If the ADR or the Licensing Authority has resolved things in your favor, please update the thread and send over the official statement to my email. Alternatively, if the ruling favored the casino, your insights are just as crucial.
We understand that some time has passed, but updating your complaint will allow us to take appropriate action, such as issuing black points to the casino in case the ruling is in your favor or warning other players and users about instances where the authority supports the operator.
We truly appreciate your cooperation, and your response would be of great assistance to us.
Thank you in advance for your reply.

Unfortunately, we still believe that the responsible gambling policy, especially self-exclusion, has been mismanaged by 22bet. Therefore, we must close this case as unresolved. Please reopen the case if the regulator responds.
