Hello,
I requested permanent account closure from Bankonbet Casino due to my gambling addiction. I explicitly stated that I am a gambling addict and wish for my account to be permanently closed. Furthermore, I explicitly indicated that I do not want to be allowed to open a new account or reopen my existing one.
The casino initially complied with my request and closed my account. However, I was later able to easily reopen it within minutes via live chat. In my view, this contradicts fundamental player protection measures, especially since I had explicitly disclosed my gambling addiction.
For this reason, I request a full refund of my deposits amounting to €750 and the permanent closure of my account without any possibility of reopening.
I am attaching the relevant screenshots of the communication with the casino as proof.
Best regards
Hallo,
ich habe bei Bankonbet Casino aufgrund meiner Spielsucht um eine dauerhafte Kontoschließung gebeten. Dabei habe ich ausdrücklich erklärt, dass ich spielsüchtig bin und eine endgültige Schließung meines Kontos wünsche. Zudem habe ich ausdrücklich darauf hingewiesen, dass ich nicht möchte, dass mir die Eröffnung eines neuen Kontos oder die Wiedereröffnung des bestehenden Kontos ermöglicht wird.
Das Casino ist meiner Bitte zunächst nachgekommen und hat mein Konto geschlossen. Allerdings konnte ich das Konto später innerhalb weniger Minuten problemlos über den Live-Chat wieder eröffnen lassen. Dies widerspricht aus meiner Sicht den grundlegenden Spielerschutzmaßnahmen, insbesondere nachdem ich meine Spielsucht ausdrücklich mitgeteilt hatte.
Aus diesem Grund bitte ich um eine vollständige Rückerstattung meiner Einzahlungen in Höhe von 750€ sowie um die dauerhafte Schließung meines Kontos ohne jede Möglichkeit einer Wiedereröffnung.
Die entsprechenden Screenshots der Kommunikation mit dem Casino füge ich als Nachweis bei.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Hello,
I received a response from the casino today. My refund request was rejected. In my opinion, they simply used the usual copy-and-paste arguments from their terms and conditions as justification.
They particularly emphasize that I confirmed I wasn't a gambling addict when I reopened my account. In my opinion, however, this argument is unconvincing. I had my account closed due to gambling addiction and reopened it shortly afterward. Gambling addiction doesn't disappear within a few days or weeks, and the casino should have recognized that.
Even if a longer period of time had passed, a reputable casino should not simply reopen an account after a self-exclusion due to gambling addiction.
Regardless of how much time has passed. These kinds of measures are precisely what serve to protect players.
Therefore, I believe that the reopening of my account constitutes a clear violation of the principles of player protection.
Hallo,
ich habe heute eine Antwort vom Casino erhalten. Mein Antrag auf Rückerstattung wurde abgelehnt. Als Begründung verwenden sie aus meiner Sicht lediglich die üblichen Copy-and-Paste-Argumente aus ihren AGB.
Besonders betonen sie, dass ich bei der Wiedereröffnung des Kontos bestätigt habe, nicht spielsüchtig zu sein. Meiner Meinung nach ist dieses Argument jedoch nicht überzeugend. Ich hatte mein Konto wegen Spielsucht schließen lassen und es bereits kurze Zeit später wieder eröffnet. Eine Spielsucht verschwindet nicht innerhalb weniger Tage oder Wochen, und das hätte das Casino erkennen müssen.
Selbst wenn ein längerer Zeitraum vergangen wäre, sollte ein seriöses Casino ein Konto nach einem Selbstausschluss wegen Spielsucht nicht einfach wieder eröffnen
unabhängig davon, wie viel Zeit vergangen ist. Genau solche Maßnahmen dienen dem Spielerschutz.
Daher bin ich der Ansicht, dass die Wiedereröffnung meines Kontos einen klaren Verstoß gegen die Grundsätze des Spielerschutzes darstellt.

Hello,
The casino closed my account again on July 3, 2026.
I cannot send you proof of the deposit as I do not have access to my casino account. I will send you a screenshot of my bank/Paysafe account.
But unfortunately, you can't see much there.

Nachweis über die einzahlung kann ich Ihnen nicht senden , da ich keinen Zugriff auf mein Casino Konto habe. Ich sende Ihnen ein Screenshot der Bank bzw Paysafe Konto o
aber da kann man leider nicht viel sehen.
