Case summary

1 year ago

The player from Finland had requested a self-exclusion on the iBet casino due to gambling issues, which was enacted on December 1st, 2022. However, the self-exclusion hadn't worked on Arctic Casino, despite her using the same registration details, which led her to lose 900€. She had cited the MGA Player Directive that indicated such self-exclusions should have applied across all brands operated by a licensee. The player had not directly informed Arctic Casino about her gambling problem. She later confirmed that the issue had been resolved. Consequently, we had marked the complaint as 'resolved'.

Hei, pyysin peliongelman takia estoa koko tähän kasino verkostoon. Lähetin ibet kasinolle sähköpostia missä pyydän peliestoa peliongelman takia kasinolle ja sisarkasinoille. Sain sähköpostin ibet kasinolta eston aktivoinnista 1.12.2022.

Arctic kasino esto ei toimi vaikka käytin 100% samoja rekisteröinti tietoja ja onnistuin häviämään 15.9.2023 arctic kasinolle 900e.



MGA PLAYER DIRECTIVE:


Provided that, in the absence of a unified self-exclusion database for remote gaming operations, where the B2C licensee operates multiple brands, if the brands require separate player registration, the B2C licensee may allow for self-exclusion to be limited to a player’s activity on the brand on which the player has requested self-exclusion, and the above subarticles (a) and (b) shall be applicable to that individual brand.

Provided further that, in the event that a player has been excluded in light of sufficient reasons which indicate that the player may have a gambling problem, irrespective of whether the player has requested the self-exclusion himself or has been excluded by the B2C licensee in accordance with sub-article (5)(b), that player shall be excluded across all brands operated by the B2C licensee, irrespective of whether the brands require separate player registration.

Dear Lolna123,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely. 

  • Could you please advise when you opened your Arctic Casino account?
  • Have you ever informed Arctic Casino about your gambling problem directly?
  • Please understand that if you self-exclude yourself from one casino it doesn’t necessarily mean that you are protected on all the other associated websites.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Petronela

Hi, I don't remember when I opened the account, recently.


I have not sent an e-mail to Arctic casino separately asking for a game ban.


yes, I understand, but the mga rules say that the casino must automatically ban the player from all the operator's casinos if the player has a gambling addiction + I sent a separate message to the ibet casino that I would also like to block the sister casinos because of the game problem, both ibet and Arctic casino's terms and conditions say "request if you want the self-ban to extend to all our casinos"
