Case summary

The player from Italy had requested account closure due to gambling addiction issues, but the account was reopened without her consent, leading her to deposit €870. We facilitated communication with the casino, which confirmed that the account had been permanently closed and acknowledged the error in reopening it. The casino agreed to refund the €870 lost after the unauthorized reopening. The refund was processed and received by the player, and the complaint was marked as resolved.

Dear Tommmm,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m very sorry to hear about your negative experience. First, I’d like to explain the difference between closing an 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 have an impact. If a player successfully requests self-exclusion, the casino agrees not to reopen the account, or only under particular circumstances (after the cooling-off period, and this cannot be done for players who are addicted/with gambling problem). 

  • Could you please specify the reason for closing your account? Please forward me the account closure requests that you sent to the casino. My email address is jean.s@casino.guru.

Thank you very much in advance. 

Best regards,

Jean

I asked the casino to permanently close my account due to my gambling addiction. The casino said it had closed my account. After a few months, they reopened it without my consent and sent me emails with bonuses to get me back in. Unfortunately, I fell for it again and played.

Thank you very much for your reply, Tommmm. Could you please forward all relevant correspondence (account closure requests, casino's replies to the request and casino's confirmation of account closure) between you and the casino to jean.s@casino.guru? If it’s more convenient, you may also post screenshots here. I understand this may take time, so I appreciate your assistance.

I sent you everything by email

In addition to sending you everything via email, I wanted to point out that despite the fact that I requested a permanent account closure in May, and they confirmed they had done so, they continue to send me promotional emails. I'm awaiting a review of the material sent to Casino Guru and I hope for a refund, given the casino's bad faith.

I have received your email. Thank you.

I can see here that on March 4, 2026, you asked for the permanent closure of account due to a gambling addiction.

The casino replied on the next day, March 5, 2026, with a confirmation that your account was permanently closed without any possibility of reopening.

To better understand why permanent closure was not implemented after March 5,2026, could you please clarify the following details:

  • Was your account really closed on March 5? If so, when did you reopen it?
  • After reopening it, when was it closed again? Did you send additional account closure requests to have it closed again?
  • Did you send an email to the casino asking why they reopened your account despite stating permanent closure in a previous email?
  • Did you try to reach out asking for refunds?

Any relevant communication, please send it to jean.s@casinog.guru. Thank you in advance.

In March, the account was permanently closed. Then in May, still receiving promotional emails with bonuses, I relapsed. Finding the account open, I played and deposited money again. I didn't ask for it to be reopened; they reactivated it without my consent, and by sending me promotional emails, they encouraged me to gamble, knowing about my gambling problem. In May, I asked for the account to be closed again and for an explanation of how it was reopened, but they never responded, only closing the account. Now it seems to be closed, just as it seemed to be closed in March. I'm requesting a refund because, after confirming the permanent closure of the account, they didn't do so, continuing to send me promotional emails. I've emailed you the May exchanges.
