I've been trying to close my account for months. I've sent numerous emails, even with notes about gambling addiction, but there's been no response. On the contrary, they keep adding 10€ bonuses to encourage me to play again. I've lost at least 5000 in the last 3 months. Please help me.

Dear Kati09, 

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 a gambling problem). 

Would you be so kind as to forward me the account closure requests that you sent to the casino? My email address is veronika.l@casino.guru

Thank you very much in advance. 

Best regards, 

Veronika

Dear Kati09 and CasinoGuru,

Thank you for reaching out and expressing your concerns. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this situation has caused.

Upon reviewing the account activity, we noted that various offers and bonuses had been requested and utilized, leading to the automatic cancellation of the closure request by our system. Additionally, our records indicate that Kati09 was active in our chat today, asking for a free bonus and inquiring about depositing with Paysafe. During the chat, Kati09 was asked if she was experiencing addiction and if she would like us to close her account, but the chat was closed without a response.

To address these concerns seriously, we have temporarily closed the account while we clarify the situation. We are committed to ensuring a safe and responsible gaming environment, and the well-being of our users is our top priority.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Best regards, Cazino Stars

It's a disgrace. I wasn't asked if I was addicted to gambling! The fact that I wanted to close my account countless times by email and had said so was obviously forgotten. Now that I've contacted you, it's suddenly working. And what about my money, which you were happy to take despite knowing??

You have already documented that above, what do you want now? The fact is that I have asked for the account to be closed countless times, even saying that I am addicted to gambling, but there was no response! On the contrary, bonuses were given without me asking. Every other casino closes the account immediately if you say you are addicted to gambling, but there is no response from you. On the contrary, and I will repeat myself again, you have been very happy to accept my deposits and you have never asked me about your addiction to gambling. And that is a fact!

I looked through my emails again to the 20 where I asked for the account to be closed in July, citing my gambling addiction!! NO reply, no reaction from you. I can prove this, I only received emails when a bonus was added to my account.

Dear Crazino Stars Casino,


Do I understand correctly that you have received and acknowledged a request for self-exclusion from the player, citing gambling addiction? And, based on the player's activity, the self-exclusion process was stopped? Could you explain this situation in more detail?

Dear Kati09 and CasinoGuru,


We understand your request to close the account and the reasons behind it. As part of our commitment to responsible gaming, we take account closures due to addiction seriously. However, to consider closing your account on these grounds, we require supporting documentation that verifies any claims of gambling addiction. Unfortunately, we have not received any such certification from you.


Additionally, our records indicate that during recent interactions via chat, you expressed interest in receiving bonuses, which contradicts a genuine desire for account closure due to addiction concerns.


We understand that gambling losses can be difficult, but our terms and conditions specify that we are not able to reverse or refund balances based on post-play losses. Our responsibility is to provide a fair gaming experience, and, in line with these guidelines, we have maintained your account accordingly.


If you have further questions or would like additional resources for managing your gaming habits responsibly, we’re here to help.

THEY don't take anything seriously and make everything up the way they want it. I have never been asked by them to show any proof and they have never responded to any email from me asking to close my account, not even the one in July saying that I am addicted to gambling. No response, no restrictions, nothing. I even said in the chat that I am addicted to gambling and I was told that there was nothing that could be done and that I should send an email about what I did in July. I will be happy to send you the screenshot. Yes, and I played, I wanted to win back my losses, that's what happens with gambling addiction, and they were always happy to give me bonuses so that I could play. That's the truth, and the last time I asked for bonuses I had already lost. Only death is free, and you don't get anything from them without having paid in beforehand. They are ice cold, they don't care about human fates, that's what I read here, and admitting mistakes doesn't seem to be their strength either. The main thing is that their account balance is correct....

I will keep fighting and won't let them do this to me!!! Their statements and lies are contemptuous.

Dear Cazino Stars Casino,


Thank you for the provided explanation. I would like to mention that self-exclusion due to a gambling problem is a very serious issue because the players often lose control over their actions and are not thinking rationally. Informing the casino about a potential gambling problem is an important part of the self-exclusion process and we at Casino.Guru believe that if a player has a gambling problem and informs the casino about it, their account should be permanently closed without the possibility of reopening. Gambling addiction has an impulsive character, which means that it is completely normal for the players who are suffering from it to request self-exclusion in one minute, and then ask for a bonus moments later. That is why it is crucial for casinos to do the self-exclusion process as quickly and effectively as possible, so the players won't keep depositing and playing. It is also worth noting that it is an important step for the players to admit their addiction and inform the casino about it.


The self-exclusion request should have been honored in this case and the player's account should have been permanently closed.



I would like to ask you if we understood the situation correctly or if there is any other information as to why was the player with a gambling problem ignored while requesting self-exclusion.

Dear Casino.Guru,


Thank you for reaching out.


At Cazino Stars, we place a high priority on responsible gambling and the well-being of our players. We understand the gravity of self-exclusion requests due to gambling problems and acknowledge the importance of promptly addressing such situations.


We have reviewed the case in question and would like to provide some clarity. During our examination, it became apparent that the initial communication from the player did not explicitly mention a gambling problem or a request for self-exclusion. The player's initial contact was regarding a bonus inquiry, and no indication of a gambling issue was communicated to our support team at that time.


Our policy is to immediately action any self-exclusion requests and ensure the permanent closure of the player's account upon receipt of such a request. We deeply regret any misunderstanding or miscommunication that may have occurred in this instance. We have since contacted the player to offer support and to finalize the self-exclusion process without delay.


We take gambling addiction and the measures necessary to address it very seriously. We continuously strive to enhance our processes to better support our players and prevent these issues from occurring in the future.


Should you require any further information or have any additional questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are committed to resolving this in the best possible manner for all parties involved.


Sincerely, Cazino Stars.

I am speechless and have read your reply twice. What did you check and which contact are we talking about here? I have constantly tried to contact you by email and chat about closing my account!! I will be happy to send you the dozens of emails. I also asked for my account to be closed in July, citing my gambling addiction, but you didn't respond. I can also send you this email again. So don't act like you're taking this issue seriously. That is simply a lie. On the contrary, when I didn't play every day, I was often credited with bonuses so that I could get into the casino. I won't say what the intention behind this was. And of course when I played and lost, I asked for a bonus. The fact is that I informed you about my gambling addiction in the summer and you didn't respond!! I'm financially at the end of my rope and have lost more than €5000 with you.

Dear Casino Guru,


We appreciate your assistance in addressing this complaint. We would like to clarify the situation regarding the player's claim that we have not replied to her emails.


Attached, you will find a screenshot of our last chat with the user, dated 29 October 2024, in which we addressed her issue with Paysafecard. The user reported that she was unable to make a deposit despite having credit. Our representative responded promptly, informing the user of our serious consideration of the situation and asking for clarification on her intentions, as follows:

Chat Transcript (29 October 2024):


User (Kati09): Hello, why is Paysafecard not working again? Now I have credit and can't make a deposit. Support: I would love to help you, Kathrin, but you have lodged a complaint on Casino Guru. How should we understand this? Are you suddenly no longer addicted to gambling? Do you want to continue playing or should we delete your account? This is a very serious situation for us, so we are taking it very seriously.


The user logged out of the chat without responding. We take such matters seriously and are committed to ensuring that all players have a positive experience with our services. We remain open to resolving any further issues the player may have.


Thank you for your understanding and support.

Funny that you only refer to our last contact and not to the numerous emails in which I asked for the account to be closed and the email in July where I informed them about my gambling addiction! Regarding the last contact, I left the chat when I was told that I had complained to Casino Guru, so I can't 100% confirm what you're posting here in the chat. Furthermore, I find it really cheeky that you haven't mentioned a word about the previous 30 emails in which I asked for the account to be closed or the one in which I mentioned my gambling addiction (that was in July). You're trying to make a fool of me here, but I see you as the ones who didn't address my problem. On the contrary, you kept crediting me with bonuses when I hadn't been to the casino for a while. Strangely, I also got an information email or text message. That is the truth and nothing but the truth. Your casino is not to be recommended in any way!!! You can see that they are not meeting my needs in any way and are trying to accuse me of incorrect behavior and act as if they were not at fault. Sorry, that's not acceptable!

Dear Casino.Guru


Upon reviewing our communication records with the player, we did not find any emails specifically mentioning gambling addiction. However, we did find several closure requests from the user.


These requests were automatically annulled by our system, as the user subsequently utilized and requested various bonuses.


If you need any further information or clarification, please let us know.


Sincerely, Cazino Stars.

After that I sent about 30 more emails asking for my account to be closed, but I didn't get any response. I can't list them all here. Of course I checked and played from time to time because I could always log in and they gave me bonuses. But I was never contacted about my emails or gambling addiction.

Dear Casino.Guru,


Thank you for bringing this to our attention.


We have reviewed our records and could not find the specific email mentioned by the user. As previously discussed, we did identify several closure requests from the user. Our system is designed to automatically annul closure requests if the user subsequently deposits and receives various bonuses.


Regarding the issue of gambling addiction, once this concern was brought to our attention, we immediately sought to clarify the situation through our chat service. We have already provided a screenshot from the chat where this was addressed. Following the identification of the addiction issue, the user's account was promptly closed.


If you require any further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.


Best regards, Cazino Stars.

Could you please confirm the email address from which you sent the message on July 31st?


Dear Cazino Stars Casino,


Am I correct in understanding that while the player submitted multiple account closure requests, the issue of gambling addiction was first mentioned to you in this complaint?
