Dear BetBeast Casino,
Thank you for your email.
I must inform you that once a player requests self-exclusion, their account must remain closed permanently, without any possibility of being reopened. On 23/12, the player requested the closure of his account due to gambling problem and even received confirmation from your support that the account had been permanently closed - as it should have been.
Regardless of any statements, messages, or claims the player may have made afterward, the account should never have been reopened. In this case, however, the player managed to self-exclude and subsequently reopen his account four times within a few weeks.
This represents a serious breach of responsible gambling standards and contradicts our expectations regarding a safe gambling environment.
Additionally, you mentioned that from now on you will request players to install BetBlocker and that you will not be held responsible for any potential losses if they fail to do so.
While it is positive to see such a measure being incorporated into your responsible gambling procedures, please note that it is the casino’s own fundamental duty to protect players who have requested self-exclusion, rather than relying on external programs.
Finally, you also stated that you would only proceed with a refund in this complaint if the player installs BetBlocker. As mentioned above, BetBlocker is indeed a helpful tool for players struggling with gambling problems, and we at Casino Guru also recommend it. However, it is not reasonable to condition the resolution of this complaint on the player installing third-party software.
Therefore, the player is eligible for a refund of all deposits made after the first account closure due to problematic gambling, minus any withdrawals.
