The player from Sweden had deposited a significant sum of money and asked for bonuses. Her account had been temporarily closed due to gambling addiction, but upon reopening, she lost a large amount of money and the casino refused reimbursement. She had self-excluded many years ago due to gambling addiction and reopened the account after 2019. However, we were unable to assist her due to the significant time that had passed since the incident, which made it a 'cold case'.

Hello emmisen89,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with 888 Casino SE. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.
Could you please advise when did you request for the self-exclusion and how long after that did the casino reopen your account? Did you ever mention gambling addiction within your request? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
Looking forward to your answer.
Regards,
Nick

It had been many years since I did a self-termination due to gambling addiction. Opened the account again after 2019. The casino says it was a brand new license and therefore I could open my account again

We apologize, , but we are unable to assist you with your request. Due to the significant time that has passed since the incident you described, which is over one year ago, we are unable to investigate further. Our policy prohibits us from pursuing cases classified as "cold cases" as gathering evidence and reconstructing a timeline becomes highly challenging, if not impossible.
