Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom expressed concern over being allowed to deposit into the casino without sufficient checks, despite a history of gambling problems and changes to his deposit limits. His account had been closed after he registered with Gamstop, and he had not requested a refund from the casino. The Complaints Team noted that the casino's action to close the account was acceptable as a protective measure, and since the account was closed, no further assistance could be provided. The player was advised to follow the casino's complaint resolution procedure if he believed responsible gambling guidelines had not been followed.

Hi just abit concerned about this website , after changing my limit from a small amount to an higher amount , due to gambling problems I was allowed to use a3rd part account with permission and spend 5000 pound in one go . Even though my partner is registered on GameStop I was still able to deposit all of this money with out questions. They allowed me to play 5000 pound with out checking in on me . Although I’ve taken breaks in the past due to my gambling habits . ? Do I stand a chance getting net deposits back ?

Dear player,

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

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

  • Have you registered on Gamstop yourself due to concerns regarding staying in control of your gambling?
  • Have you activated any gambling limits directly in your player's account or by contacting support?
  • Could you please clarify the basis of your refund request? Have you informed the casino about suffering from any gambling problems?
  • Have you requested a refund of your lost funds from the casino already? What response have you received?
  • Could you please share with me your communication with the casino discussing responsible gambling issues? Send emails or chat transcripts to my email at tomas@casino.guru, or post screenshots here
  • Is your account currently blocked?

Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas

Thanks for your reply.

Please note that we consider self-exclusion a mandatory option of player protection in online casinos. In casinos licensed under the UKGC, the casino is obligated to participate in the Gamstop self-exclusion scheme. The measures you describe are not considered mandatory in our view, and we can't penalize the casino if they fail to act according to these expectations. Since the casino closed your account as a measure to protect you, we would consider such actions as acceptable. If you believe the casino didn't act according to specific responsible gambling guidelines mandated by the licensor, you should consider proceeding with the casino's complaint resolution procedure by contacting support with a complaint and if your issue isn't resolved than, by contacting eCogra, the casino's ADR (alternative dispute resolution) Full instructions can be found here: https://www.jackpotcitycasino.co.uk/terms-and-conditions#10_support_and_complaints
