Insufficient evidence from player

Safety Index 3.8 Low

Case summary

The player from Italy requested intervention from Casino Guru regarding Gransino Casino, where he insisted his account had been reopened without consent after a self-exclusion due to his gambling addiction. He sought to permanently self-exclude, receive a full refund for deposits made after the reopening, and ensure that no promotional communications were sent to him. He said the casino later closed his account, but no final response had been received after its initial claim that an internal investigation was underway. We rejected the complaint because he provided no evidence of the earlier self-exclusion communication, so we could not verify that the casino had failed to protect him.

Dear Casino Guru Team,

I would also like to ask for your intervention with the Gransino Casino, as I believe the handling of my case represents a serious violation of the principles of responsible gaming.

I again sent the casino a formal request for permanent self-exclusion, clearly stating that I suffer from a serious gambling addiction and that this request was motivated solely by the need to protect my health and well-being.

The situation is particularly serious because my account had already been subject to a previous self-exclusion. However, the casino subsequently reopened my account without my consent, allowing me to continue playing and making further deposits. If my self-exclusion had been properly respected, these losses would never have occurred.

I find it unacceptable that a gaming operator would ignore such a sensitive request, especially when the player explicitly states that they suffer from gambling addiction. Operators have a duty to strictly enforce responsible gaming measures and protect vulnerable players, not to allow them to continue gambling.

For these reasons I asked the casino to:

proceed immediately to permanently self-exclude my account;

fully refund all deposits made after the account is reopened;

permanently stop any promotional communications, bonuses or marketing activities towards me.

I kindly ask you to look into this matter and contact the casino so they can provide an explanation regarding the reopening of my account and the failure to comply with their responsible gaming policies.

I believe that reactivating a previously self-excluded account, without the player's consent and despite my declared gambling addiction, constitutes gross negligence and a violation of fundamental consumer protection principles.

I remain available to provide all the documentation in my possession, including emails sent to the casino and any further evidence useful in evaluating the case.

Hello,

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

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 the communication in which you informed the casino about your gambling issues? Please share the information with timestamps to my email at tomas@casino.guru
  • When was the last time the casino allowed you to deposit?
  • Has the casino responded to your refund request already? What did the casino reply?

If your account is currently not blocked, as the next step, I recommend you contact the casino again via email at support@gransino.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 Gransino Casino 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

Thank you for your response and for taking the time to review my complaint.

Below I provide the answers to your questions:

Is my account currently accessible?

No, my account is currently closed.

Can you share the communication in which you informed the casino of your gambling problems?

Yes. I just emailed you all the documentation I have, including emails and screenshots of conversations with customer service, which clearly show that I informed the casino that I had a serious gambling problem and requested permanent self-exclusion. The documentation also contains the relevant dates and times, where available. I'M ALSO FORWARDING THEM VIA MY OTHER INSTITUTIONAL EMAIL ADDRESS, AS I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WILL RECEIVE THE EMAILS BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO MANY.

When was the last time the casino allowed you to make a deposit?

I don't remember exactly but in any case the period was during the closure request

Has the casino responded to your refund request yet? What was the casino's response?

This was the response despite 30 emails being sent:

Hi Tomas,

The casino actually closed my account. However, despite numerous emails I sent and their initial replies confirming they were conducting an internal review, I haven't received any updates or a definitive response since.

Regarding the documentation relating to last year's self-exclusion, I unfortunately don't retain any communications. However, I'm confident the casino has all the information and related internal records, including communications regarding my self-exclusion request and subsequent account closure, as this data should be stored in their systems.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Sadly, we can only confront the casino regarding their failure to protect you with evidence coming from you, as the casino has no obligation to provide it to us. Without evidence, your account was previously closed due to a disclosure of gambling issues; we can't fault or penalize the casino. If you happen to recover the evidence from last year, don't hesitate to contact us again, and we'll do our best to assist you. We hope you won't face similar issues in the future.

Due to the aforementioned reasons, we will now proceed to reject this complaint. Thank you for your understanding. I am genuinely sorry that we were not able to assist you more effectively in this particular situation, as we always aim to help players resolve their issues whenever possible.

Please remember that you are welcome to contact us again if you run into any problems with this or any other casino in the future. Whether it is a question, a concern, or a new issue that needs to be looked into, our team is here and ready to support you.
