Case summary

The player from Portugal filed a formal complaint against Cashed casino, noting that it lacked the necessary license to operate legally in Portugal and had failed to allow him to self-exclude from the platform. He requested a full reimbursement of his deposited amounts due to the illegal operation of the casino. The Complaints Team informed him that they could not assist with the recovery of funds based solely on self-exclusion due to the casino's licensing status. Ultimately, the complaint was closed due to the player's lack of response to inquiries from the team.

Good afternoon


I have a formal complaint against Cashed casino.


I am a resident of Portugal and I discovered that this operator does not have a license from SRIJ, which means that it is not authorized to accept Portuguese players or process payments with MBWay or cards issued by national banks.


I have made several deposits through intermediaries such as Eupago and Unlimint, with bank receipts to prove the amounts transferred.


In addition, I have tried to self-exclude from the platform, but it has not been possible to delete the account or block new deposits, which increases the seriousness of the situation.


I request that this case be analyzed and that the casino be required to reimburse the amounts deposited in full, since its operation in Portuguese territory is illegal.


I am available to send proof of payment, screenshots of the account and communications with the casino.

Dear Joaobsousa,

Thank you for submitting your complaint. I regret to learn of the negative experience you encountered with Cashed Casino.

Regrettably, at Casino.Guru, we do not handle complaints related to licensing regulations and policies. While I understand your perspective, unfortunately, we are not in a position to provide assistance in this matter. Our role is that of an independent online casinos database that acts as a mediator in resolving players' disputes. However, we lack the authority to enforce the legality of rules. 

If your aim is to seek a refund of lost deposits solely on the grounds that the casino lacks a valid license, we are unable to assist you. In each review, we provide users with license information, and it ultimately falls on each player to make an informed decision regarding their choice of casino. If your preference is to play in licensed casinos exclusively, I strongly recommend checking our list of recommended casinos at https://casino.guru/top-online-casinos#tab=RECOMMENDED and utilizing available filters to find the most suitable casino for your needs. 


Regarding your self exclusion request, I’d like to explain to you what the difference is between closing the 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. If a player successfully makes a self-exclusion the casino agrees not to open this account or if yes only under particular circumstances (after the cooling off period and this cannot be done for players who are addicted/with gambling problems).

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 [email protected].

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Katarina

Dear Joaobsousa,

thank you for your emails.

  • Do I understand correctly that your first self exclusion email was sent on November 9th?
  • Have you received any response? Is your account accessible to you?
  • Could you please provide the date of your last deposit?

As I mentioned in my initial message, I am concerned that I may not be able to assist with recovering your funds solely on the basis of your self-exclusion in Portugal. This casino does not hold a Portuguese license and therefore does not have access to the national registry of excluded players.

The licensing information is clearly displayed on both our website and the casino’s own site, and it is ultimately the player’s responsibility to make an informed decision about whether to participate in gameplay.

Looking forward to your reply,

Katarina
