Hello,


Despite repeated requests over several weeks, and now also with reference to my gambling addiction, my account has finally been blocked.


Since the last emails about the account being blocked, I have deposited 4750 euros.


There are no time limits after 60 minutes; you can deposit an unlimited amount, and self-exclusion is not possible. Because of this, I deposited more and more money. Furthermore, this arrangement is not subject to German law, and I've seen that it's not legal in Germany either.


For this reason, I would like the 4750 euros back.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to clarify your situation.

  • Could you please specify when you first requested to have your account closed due to gambling addiction and when exactly the casino closed your account?
  • Please forward me your account closure requests as complete, original emails, along with the casino's responses, at veronika.f@casino.guru.
  • Have you passed the full KYC verification at this casino, or at least submitted any identity documents to the casino for verification?

Please note that we at Casino Guru do not deal with complaints related to licensing regulations or regulatory policies. I understand your point; however, unfortunately, we are not in a position to assist you with this matter.

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

Best regards

Hello Veronika


An email has been sent to you. I never received a reply from the casino via email.


I then inquired again in the chat about my two emails, and then my account was closed.


I started the KYC process, but I don't think it was completed.

Thank you for your email. I have reviewed the message you sent to the casino on 21 July. According to the Responsible Gaming section of iWild Casino:

7. Self-Exclusion

If you feel that you may be becoming dependent on gambling, you should consider permanently excluding yourself from all gambling environments. If you take the decision that you no longer want to play at iwildcasino.com, you can permanently block your access by contacting our Customer Service team by emailing support@iwildcasino.com. If you wish to self-exclude yourself for a set period, you can do this by contacting our support by emailing support@iwildcasino.com.

The email I received from you was sent to finance-team@iwildcasino.com. Please note that this is not the correct email address to request self-exclusion. Have you sent any of your requests to the support email mentioned on the casino website?
