30 Bet Casino - Player's account has been reopened despite self-exclusion.

Unresolved
Our verdict

Failed self-exclusion

Black points: 4,270

Amount: £6,400

30 Bet Casino
Safety Index:Below average

Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom, who had self-excluded from the casino for five years, reopened his account and deposited £6400. However, his bank account was closed because transactions were flagged as crypto payments, which he had not authorized. He requested a refund of his money back into his account, as he was struggling with financial distress and a gambling addiction. We attempted to mediate the complaint and requested evidence from the casino regarding the reopening of the self-excluded account, but the casino failed to cooperate or respond. Consequently, the complaint was marked as unresolved, and the casino's rating was negatively affected due to the lack of cooperation. The player was advised to use gambling blocking tools and to consider filing a complaint with the relevant gaming authority.

The account is not completely closed thet have blocked the play access and deposit access they said they are reviewing and would get back to me in 24/48 hours however I have not received any response and it's been 2 days now from my understanding if a player requests 5 year exclusion when the player comes back trying to reopen the account the casino should prevent this by declining to reopen the account until the self exclusion period is done that's the whole point of self excluding for 5 years I feel like ive been let down here qbet and 30bet are under the same management and qbet declined to reopen so obviously there's a error here somewhere Im really scared and this has greatly affected me I really hope 30bet will do the right thing and refund my deposits on this occasion due to the circumstances i am a gambling addict and wouldn't have requested a 5 year exclusion period otherwise I hope you would agree in this fact. This has greatly affected my mental health i haven't been out my room since Thursday I feel suicidal my bank is overdrawn I have no money to eat or pay my bills please casino guru help me

Hello,

Thank you for sharing the conversations you had with the casino’s customer support. I’m really sorry to hear about your situation, and I can only imagine how horrible this experience must be for you.

Before we proceed further with your complaint, I still need to collect some additional information from you. You have provided several chat conversations with customer support; however, these took place either shortly before your account was reopened or after you had already lost money. Unfortunately, I have not yet received your original self-exclusion request.

Could you please send me the original message or conversation in which you first requested self-exclusion from 30 Bet Casino? This information is very important for us to properly assess your case and determine whether the casino acted in line with its obligations.

Thats fine i would just like to add in the casino Terms and Conditions it states a self excluded account can not be reopened untill the self exclusion period is over it states no where a self excluded account can be reopened. This casino doesnt follow their own terms and conditions of the site but players are supposed to follow them?

I have provided all information however I will update you on the complaint and the situation. I requested a 5 year self exclusion from 30bet and their sister site Qbet due to me suffering with gambling addiction from my understanding and the terms and conditions of the site specifically states a self excluded account cannot be reopened until the given time frame has passed in my circumstances was 5 years. The way I self excluded was through the responsible gaming section of the website on my login profile once I selected 5 years self exclusion this was automatically applied to my account. Now I am aware I asked the casino to re open my account however due to my 5 year self exclusion they should have denied my request and safe guarded me from re opening my account which ever other casino I have used has and does implement as their terms and conditions states however 30bet did not do this they allowed my account to be reopened one month after my 5 year self exclusion request this is not anywhere stated in their terms and condition. In all honesty this really affected me mentally physically and emotional on a great scale as I am also struggling with other aspects of my. Life right now I honestly didn't need this I am slowly recovering and have good faith in God I will recover from this however this is not right it's set me back and if a vulnerable customer self excludes for 5 years casino should not be allowing for self excluded accounts to be reopened even if they request it which they will if they are an addict it is on the customer to initiate the self excision and then it's on the operator to Implement the self exclusion to safe guard the customer I've read other complaints were they have rectified this with other customer hopefully they will do the right and honest thing and correct what they have done I will then change my Outlook on this casino but so far I'm at a stale mate here I did inform the casino about my situation and the fact my self excluded account was reopened and shouldn't have been reopened however I got the impression they was unfazed this really surprised me honestly I genuinely felt like I was target I am a vulnerable customer.hopefully we can come to some sort of agreement and fair decision based on what has happened thank you I will add proof of confirmation my account was indeed self excluded. 🤝

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Sheraz1996,

I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly via e-mails and Teams, and the casino representative agreed to look into this complaint and joins the mediation process. Unfortunately, seems like that is not going to happen. I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from their side. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system, and it will negatively impact their future safety rating on our website as such. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue at all. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach in the future. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email.

First, I would strongly recommend installing free app BetBlocker (https://betblocker.org/) onto your computer and mobile device, to keep you safe from online gambling sites while browsing the internet. It's free, and for maximum protection it is recommended to have a family member or a friend to set up the password in your stead. Also, I would advise to block all the mobile numbers and e-mail addresses that are sending you promotional materials.

As a next step, I do recommend you contact the Curaçao Gaming Authority (https://www.gamingcontrolcuracao.org/contact) and submit a complaint with them. Although according to their own article about online gaming - this authority does not deal with the player complaints, they stated that too many messages regarding the same casino may lead to revoking the license in the future, therefore it is worth a shot. If you need help with submitting the request, or if you hear back from either the authority or the casino, please let me know by sending me a quick message at matej.l@casino.guru. I am really sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion. :(

Best regards,

Matej
