Case summary

12 months ago

The player from Italy had repeatedly requested account closure but had received no response from the casino. Despite his requests, the casino had kept the account open, resulting in the player losing over 2000 euros. We had advised the player to request self-exclusion due to a gambling problem, which would have obligated the casino to close the account. However, the player did not respond to our advice or further messages, which prevented us from investigating the issue further. Consequently, we had to reject the complaint.

I've submitted numerous requests to close my account, but no one has ever responded. In fact, I've been mocked several times on live chat, being told that my request has been forwarded, but it's been over a month of me sending requests to close the account without a response. Unfortunately, I couldn't restrain myself and I've lost over 2000 euros during this time on the site.

Dear melegraziosi2,

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

First, I’d like to explain to you what the difference is between closing the account and self-exclusion:

Closing an account is simple and has almost no impact - the player can reopen the account anytime, and the casino has no obligation to the player.

On the other hand, self-exclusion does. If a player successfully makes a self-exclusion the casino agrees not to open this account or if yes only under particular circumstances

(after the cooling off period and this cannot be done for players who are addicted/with gambling problems).

  • Did you mention your struggle to control your gambling at the casino at any time, or did you specify the reason why you wished to close your account?
  • Could you please specify the email where you sent your requests for account closure?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Tomas

I sent you the emails I sent to them

Of course I tried in every way to make him understand that I wanted to close the account.

I spoke to them via live chat many times and they never helped me.

They made me send these emails and nothing ever changed

Thank you for your messages.

I would recommend you request a self-exclusion due to a gambling problem in the casino in order for the casino to close your account.

When applying for the self-exclusion, clearly state the reason for deactivating your account and specify the time period. Also, the email "Subject" should be clearly marked and easily recognizable as the casino support receives many requests per day. If it is marked visibly you will stand a better chance of having your request granted as soon as possible. 

Example:

Email subject: Self-exclusion


Player’s info:

First name:

Last name:

DOB:

Casino login:

Email address:


"Greetings,
I’m writing to inform you that I wish to exclude immediately from this casino and from receiving any gambling-related marketing material for a minimum period of xxx months/years (permanently).
The reason for my decision is xxx (gambling problem).
I acknowledge that I will not be allowed to rescind my self-exclusion during this period and that the self-exclusion cannot be lifted before the end of the agreed period."


Please send another email to support@casinomidas.com (you can CC me at tomas@casino.guru ) and keep me informed about any further developments. Thank you in advance for your reply.
