Dear Nickvdz,

I am sorry to hear about the issue you are experiencing with the casino. I will reach out to the casino on your behalf and do my best to help resolve the matter promptly.

At this point, I would like to invite a representative from Baloo.bet Casino to join this conversation and assist in addressing the complaint.

Dear Baloo.bet Casino,

Could you please provide your comments regarding this matter?

Thank you in advance for your cooperation and for sharing any relevant information.

Thank you for your help on the matter.

We appreciate the player's concerns and can confirm that the account has already been permanently closed.

As outlined in Section 7.1 of our Terms & Conditions, account closure requests are forwarded to the relevant technical department for review and processing. The review and processing of an account closure request may take up to thirty (30) calendar days from the date the request is received. During this period, the account may remain active until all necessary technical, operational, and regulatory procedures have been completed.

While Support Agents and VIP Managers may assist with receiving and forwarding such requests, they are not responsible for the technical closure of player accounts and are not authorized to finalize the account closure process.

Following completion of the required review and technical procedures, the player's account was permanently closed in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.

Best regards,

Thank you for your response and for confirming that the player's account has now been closed.

I note that you have referred to your Terms and Conditions concerning account closure. However, having reviewed the relevant section on your website, it appears that the provision you quoted relates to general account closure. In this case, the player was not requesting a standard account closure but rather permanent self-exclusion due to gambling addiction, which requires a different and more urgent approach.

In line with accepted industry standards, as well as our Fair Gambling Codex, requests for self-exclusion based on gambling addiction should be treated with the highest priority and implemented without unnecessary delay. As a general rule, we consider up to three days to be a reasonable timeframe for a casino to process and enforce such a request.

Any delay beyond that exposes a vulnerable player to continued gambling activity and the risk of further losses, which is precisely what responsible gambling measures are intended to prevent. In our view, where a player continues to deposit and gamble because a self-exclusion request was not implemented within a reasonable period, the casino would have fallen short of player protection obligations.

Therefore, we advise casinos to consider refunding any deposits made by the player between their initial request for closure and the actual date their account was closed. I would like to propose this solution for your consideration in this particular situation. Thank you for your understanding and attention to this important matter.

Thank you for your message, and please accept our apologies for the delayed response.

We would like to inform you that we require some additional time to thoroughly investigate this matter. Once our review has been completed, we will provide you with a detailed response.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,
