Case summary

The player from Spain had requested account closure due to gambling problems on March 1st, but the casino had continued to offer him bonuses, resulting in a loss of over €9,000. He had not received any responses to his requests for account closure. The Complaints Team had advised him to request self-exclusion via email and had included guidance on how to proceed. Despite the casino ignoring his closure requests and continuing to send promotions, the player had marked the complaint as resolved after the Complaints Team took over communication and managed the case. The complaint was then closed in the system.

Good afternoon, on March 1st I requested the casino to close my account due to gambling problems. Far from closing my account, they continued offering me bonuses to keep playing. Since then, I have lost over €9,000 and they continue to ignore my requests to close the account. I haven't even received a response to my latest requests.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with Casino Lab.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so we can better determine how to assist you.

  • Is your account currently accessible to you?
  • Could you please share any follow-up communication that took place around that time between you and the casino with me for review?
  • After you learned your account wasn't closed, have you contacted the casino via email or chat and asked for assistance?
  • Have you asked the casino for a refund due to failed player protection? Have you received any response?

If your account is currently not blocked, as the next step, I recommend you request a new self-exclusion via email at support@casinolab.com, and at the same time, include me in the copy of the email at tomas@casino.guru

When applying for self-exclusion, clearly state the reason for deactivating your account and specify the period. Additionally, the email subject should be marked and easily recognizable, as the casino support receives many requests per day. If it is marked visibly, you will stand a better chance of having your request granted as soon as possible.

Example:

Email subject: Self-exclusion:

Player’s info:

First name:

Last name:

Date of birth:

Casino login:

Email address:

"Greetings Casino Lab Support,

I’m writing to inform you that I wish to be immediately excluded from this casino and from receiving any gambling-related marketing material permanently.

The reason for my decision is that I am suffering from gambling problems.

I acknowledge that I will not be allowed to rescind my self-exclusion during this period and that the self-exclusion cannot be lifted before the end of the agreed period."

In the meantime, check other resources and information in our responsible gambling guide found here: https://casino.guru/responsible-gambling-guide

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Yes, I currently have access to the account.

The communications have consisted of trying to close the account, 3 or 4 times and they have never paid attention to me, they have continued offering me bonuses or I have not received a response.

I haven't requested a refund from the casino, but I doubt they'll give me my money back. Should I?

I sent the email exactly as you told me, with the request for self-exclusion due to problems as well as the refund of all losses since that date. The casino's response the next day was to offer me €100 free for my activity on the account, ignoring my request.

I copied you on that email.

They keep sending me promotions, ignoring my emails and closure requests; the amount in dispute has now reached €12,205.


I want my account deleted immediately and my money refunded. This casino is a scam; it doesn't respect player protection and takes advantage of players' vulnerability.

We’ve reopened this complaint at the request of Vrossi166. We would like to allow this case one more chance to be resolved and help both parties involved to reach a satisfactory conclusion.


I have been informed by Vrossi166 that the "resolved button" was used by mistake, and actually, there was no refund.


Dear Casino Lab,


Could you give us your thoughts regarding this case?

After sending four, five, or six emails like the last one, requesting account closure and a refund due to a breach of player protection, they finally closed my account. However, this only happened after I contacted them via chat and told them I was going to take legal action. They then closed my account and said they would get back to me, presumably regarding the refund. To this day, I still haven't received any response. I've sent them more emails asking about it, but they're not replying. This casino is a scam that only seeks to take advantage of vulnerable players, ignoring all kinds of protection measures and never processing withdrawals.

Dear Vrossi166,


Thank you for your patience.


After a thorough review of your account, we have verified that your initial closure request was submitted on March 1st, as you mentioned.


However, our records show that throughout the process of this request, multiple offers were accepted and various bonuses and cashbacks were requested and used. For this reason, the account closure procedure was followed correctly based on that continued activity.


Please be assured that your account is now closed.


Regarding your refund request, we would like to draw your attention to the following point of our General Terms and Conditions which you accepted upon registration:


6.6.2 No refund can be performed after the deposit in question (or the associated bonus) has been used to place a bet.


Because the funds and associated bonuses were utilized to place bets, we are unable to fulfill your request for a refund.


Kind regards,

CasinoLab Team.

Of course, because knowing I had problems with gambling, you kept offering me bonuses to keep me playing, ignoring my requests to close.

What you should have done, according to your terms and conditions regarding responsible gambling, was to delete my account on the 1st, the moment you received my email explaining my problem, but of course, you weren't interested in that, were you? You just wanted me to keep depositing and losing my money.

The account was closed on April 11th, the response was sent in ticket number (48097809)


Between March 1st (the day the closure was requested) and April 11th (the day of closure), the amount deposited was €12,205. I have proof of payment for each and every one of the deposits made; I could justify each one of them.

These receipts also show how the casino conceals its identity, displaying a different name each time a deposit was made, never actually showing its real name.

They've been stalling for two weeks now, far from giving an answer, which I think is quite clear and as simple as returning the disputed amount, since they have no justification for their failure to protect the player.

It's been a month and a half since the procedure began, and they still haven't admitted it was their mistake in player protection and are still stalling. They know it was their fault and refuse to return my money. I'm not asking for their money back, just for the money I shouldn't have been able to deposit.

This casino is completely untrustworthy; they don't even take responsibility for their mistakes, while they keep the money of people with gambling problems. Of course, deposits are processed instantly, there are never any problems there, but when it comes to closing the account... it's all problems.

They're already taking us for fools; they have nothing to investigate. They know perfectly well they've made a mistake—or rather, taken advantage of it. They've been going around in circles for over a month about something they know has no justification whatsoever. They're just trying to exploit the vulnerability of players like me.

To ensure everything is handled accurately and fairly, as they claim, it's very simple: you've already closed my account, which took you a great deal of effort. Now all that remains is to return the disputed amount, €12,205, which I shouldn't have had to deposit if the account closure had been processed when it was requested.
