Dear Raabi2711,
Thank you for providing the requested recording, which confirms that your self-exclusion request email was sent on June 12.
I'd like to take this opportunity to clarify our position on self-exclusion requests. When a player initiates a self-exclusion via email, it is the casino's responsibility to promptly acknowledge the request and begin the account closure process in line with responsible gambling practices. However, confirmation from the casino is also a critical component of this process. If no confirmation or relevant response is received, it is incumbent upon the player to follow up and ensure their request has been properly received and acknowledged.
In your case, while the initial request was sent, it appears the casino did not confirm receipt. This could have been due to an internal oversight or a technical issue that prevented the message from being received by the appropriate department. Most casinos typically issue an automatic acknowledgment for any support email received - an absence of such a confirmation often indicates that no actionable message was detected.
Had you followed up with additional emails or sought confirmation of your initial request, the situation may have unfolded differently. Unfortunately, instead, deposits resumed the following day, June 13, without any confirmation that the self-exclusion had been acknowledged or enforced.
This brings us to a second important consideration. Self-exclusion requests are generally handled manually by dedicated departments, and this process can take some time. We therefore allow casinos a reasonable processing period (typically a few business days) to handle these requests appropriately.
Even if we consider June 12 as the date of submission (despite the lack of acknowledgment), the deposits made between June 13 and June 16 fall within this acceptable processing timeframe. As such, they are not eligible for a refund under our current policy.
Your second email, sent a week later, did successfully reach the casino, and your account was closed the following day in response.
Given all these circumstances, I regret to inform you that we must consider your complaint unjustified. The lack of confirmation and follow-up on your part, combined with the deposits made during the standard processing period, prevent us from taking further action in this case.
I understand this is not the outcome you were hoping for, and I truly regret that we couldn’t provide a more favorable resolution. Should you experience any issues with this or any other casino in the future, please don’t hesitate to contact our Complaint Resolution Center - we are always here to help.
Best Regards,
Kubo
