Unresolved
Our verdict

Failed self-exclusion

Black points: 2,132

Amount: £3,208

Funbet Casino
Safety Index 6.1 Below average

Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom had requested the closure of her Funbet account due to a gambling problem, but found that her account remained open, allowing her to deposit £3,208 despite being told it was closed. She had not received any responses to her emails regarding this issue for over a year. The casino eventually confirmed that the account had been permanently closed and that she had been unsubscribed from communications. However, the casino failed to explain why the account had remained open for nearly a year despite the player's request and mention of a gambling problem. Due to the casino's lack of cooperation and absence of a valid license or ADR service, the complaint was marked as unresolved by the Complaints Team.

I requested Funbet to close my account due to a gambling problem on 07/04/25 and they have told me several times it is closed. This never did happen and I was allowed to deposit £3208 since they said my account was closed. A year later and my account is still open with me being able to deposit and every email since last year has been ignored

Hello,

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

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

  • Is your account currently closed?
  • When was the last time you were able to deposit?
  • Have you asked the casino for a refund due to failed player protection already? Have you received any response?
  • When was the last time you were in contact with the casino regarding any issue? Would you be able to share any recent correspondence relevant to the topic? My email is tomas@casino.guru
  • Have you made sure to contact the casino via support@funbet.com?

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

Hello Me1925,

We would like to update you that due to Tomas, your designated resolver, being on vacation, we have opted to extend the timeline by an additional 7 days. Since Tomas has an in-depth understanding of your situation and maintains direct communication with the casino, we find this extension justified. Your patience is sincerely appreciated, and I assure you that Tomas will contact you at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Best regards, Casino Guru

Dear Funbet Casino,


Thank you for the confirmation. Could you also comment on the fact that the player's account was not closed for almost a year, even if a gambling problem was explicitly mentioned?

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Me1925,


Unfortunately, the casino has not replied to further questions. I'm afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. Since the casino operates without a valid license and doesn't refer to any ADR service, there is no gaming authority to turn to.


I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints could help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint and you will be notified by email.


I can only recommend you choose casinos by their reviews and ratings in the future to avoid situations like this. I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.


Best regards,


Michal V
