Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: €530

BetBlast Casino
Safety Index:Below average

Case summary

The player from Spain had created a new account at the casino using similar details after his previous account had been closed due to gambling addiction. Despite having asked support for confirmation of no existing account, he managed to deposit 530 euros and requested a refund, stating that he should not have been allowed to play again. The Complaints Team tried to establish whether the player had been able to re-register with the same credentials, indicating a technical issue within the casino's system that had failed to prevent re-registration despite the player's self-exclusion. The issue was resolved when the player confirmed that the disputed amount had been refunded, and the complaint was closed as resolved.

I had an account at this casino a long time ago (something I didn't remember)


This week I created an account with the same information (name, address, date of birth, phone number, only the email changed)


When I tried to deposit, I received a message stating that the payment method was already registered to another account. I wrote to support and asked them to confirm that there was no other account in my name. Their response was to try the deposit again later.


I finally managed to deposit 530 euros. Today I discovered that my first account was permanently closed due to my gambling addiction (I can prove it).


Since I used the same details to create the new account and since I asked for confirmation that I did not have an account at the casino, I am requesting a refund of the deposits since I should never have played at this casino again.


For your information, I would like to say that in casinos from the same group and that are managed exactly the same (betiro, winingz, goldenpanda and many more…) if I try to create a new account, when entering the phone number it automatically prevents me from registering.


I appreciate your help

Thanks for your reply and the information provided.

I apologize for any misunderstanding. I can see you wrote an email to the casino on September 2nd demanding an explanation.

  • Has the casino responded to your demands?

You submitted a screenshot where the online casino informs you that the account associated with the email address was self-excluded due to gambling problems.

  • Could you please specify when exactly you contacted them? (date and time)

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello.


  • The casino has responded to me saying they are sorry for what happened but they say they will not refund any money.


  • The screenshot was taken days later. Since the email address I used for my first account is closed, I had no other way to prove that the account was closed due to gambling addiction and that the casino knew about it.


I asked the casino to check my second account because when I tried to deposit, it told me the payment method was already registered, which I found odd. I told the casino to check that I didn't have two accounts. Instead, they told me to keep trying to deposit.

With a very simple procedure (phone number) they would see that not only did he have two accounts, but that he was also a problem player, and none of this would have happened.


Thank you

Hello tirion365, nice to meet you!

I’d like to invite a representative of BetBlast Casino to join the conversation and participate in the investigation of this case as well.

I would also appreciate if the casino could provide us with any and all relevant evidence.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation in advance.

Hello

I confirm that the account has now also been closed for GA. Please note that, as per our general Terms & Conditions, it is the player’s responsibility to decide whether to open a new account (despite this not being allowed) and how they manage their own funds. Refunds cannot be issued for funds that have already been gambled.

When I suspected there might be a duplicate account (I hadn't even bet), I asked you to please tell me if I had ever had an account at your casino (I provided all my details for this).


I explained that when I tried to deposit, the card gave me an error because it told me it was already registered.


I acted as honestly as possible, and your response was to keep trying to deposit; you were only interested in billing.


With a simple click, you would have seen that there were duplicate accounts and that the first one was closed due to gambling addiction.

Dear BetBlast Casino, the player mentioned he was able to re-register using the same credentials (name, surname, DOB, address, etc.) and the only difference was the e-mail address. Could you please confirm this? Thank you.

Dear Matej,

According to our General Terms and Conditions, creating duplicate accounts is strictly prohibited. If such accounts are detected, this may result in penalties, including account closure and forfeiture of funds.

While it is technically possible for a player to register again using a different email address, this is a direct violation of our rules, and the responsibility for such actions lies solely with the player.

In absolutely all of the casinos in the group (from which I am also excluded), when attempting a new registration and entering the phone number, the registration process is automatically blocked.


At BetBlast, this process failed, but what I find serious is that I requested a review and your response was to continue depositing…

Dear BetBlast Casino, I fully understand the multiple account usage and agree with such accounts being closed and all finances voided. But this is a different issue.

The player has self-excluded in the past, and the casino has all their details available. It should be impossible to be able to re-register using their real credentials, as the system should flag it straight away upon account creation and either prevent from establishing such secondary the account, or restrict the usage and flag it for immediate review by the admin team.

If the player used fake name, address, DOB or any other details, this case would be instantly rejected, as providing false information is against T&C. If the player has not been self-excluded and managed to somehow create duplicate account, the case would most likely be also rejected instantly.

However, in case of self-exclusion it is up to the casino to prevent the player from re-registering and thus protect them from themselves. Player's credentials should have been blacklisted and re-registering with those credentials should be prevented, as is standard in the gambling industry.

Seems like in this case the player has been able to re-register with the same details, pointing out a technical issue within the system. Due to this, I would like to request all the deposits made into the secondary account (minus any withdrawals and winning) to be returned back to the player, and his credentials blacklisted so no re-registration would be possible in the future, using his real personal details. In case you have any sensitive information to be shared, feel free to contact me via e-mail at matej.l@casino.guru. Thank you.

Dear tirion365,

I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly via e-mails and Teams, but had no success. 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.

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.


Next, you can contact the Anjouan Gaming Authority and submit a complaint with them. To do this, please go to the casino's website and look for the Anjouan Authority logo, usually placed somewhere at the front page. It should look something like this:

file

Once you see it, click on it and it should open a license validating page on a separate browser window. Scroll down, until you see the button File a Complaint, click it and follow the instructions. 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.


Lastly, I would recommend you to install free app BetBlocker (https://betblocker.org/es/) 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. I am really sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion. :(

Best regards,

Matej
