Case summary
The player from Germany had requested account blocking due to gambling addiction on April 18, but his request was ignored, which allowed him to continue depositing and become a VIP player. He wanted to reclaim the amount he had lost since his initial request. The issue was resolved after the casino closed his account and reached an agreement with the player regarding his losses. The Complaints Team marked the case as resolved following the player's confirmation of the agreement.

I registered with Kingmaker at the beginning of April. On April 18, I informed the live chat that I was addicted to gambling and that my account needed to be blocked. I was referred to the support email. So, on April 18, I sent an email requesting that my account be blocked (see attachment). This request was ignored. I've been able to continue depositing without issue for the past ten days and even became a VIP player. I would now like to reclaim the amount I've lost since April 18. That should be possible in this case, right? I haven't contacted the casino yet. I wanted to ask for your opinion.
Hallo,
Ich habe mich bei Kingmaker angemeldet Anfang April. Am 18.4 habe ich dem Live Chat mitgeteilt, dass ich spielsüchtig bin und mein Konto gesperrt werden muss, hier wurde ich auf die Support Mail verwiesen. Also habe ich am 18.4 eine Mail geschrieben mit der Bitte meinen Account zu sperren, siehe Anhang. Dies wurde missachtet. Ich konnte in den letzten zehn Tagen weiterhin ungehindert einzahlen und wurde sogar VIP Spieler. Die verlorene Summe seit dem 18.4 würde ich nun gerne zurückfordern. Das sollte in diesem Fall möglich sein, oder? Eine Kontaktaufnahme mit dem Casino ist noch nicht erfolgt. Ich wollte euch nach einer Einschätzung fragen.

Unfortunately, in order for us to proceed with this case as a failed self-exclusion, we need to see the initial self-exclusion request. Can you please post it here?

And as I said: the request for blocking was actually ignored. This means the casino is violating its own terms and conditions. All deposits must therefore be refunded.
und wie gesagt: der anstrag für sperrung wurde eigentlich ignoriert. damit verstößt das casino gegen die eigenen Bedingungen. Alle Einzahlungen sind daher zu erstatten

The date of self-exclusion was April 18th - you were informed of this via live chat and then via email.
You didn't close my account, but instead encouraged me to continue playing by assigning me a VIP manager who offered me deposit offers almost daily. This isn't legal, not only in light of your terms and conditions. The fact that I revised the exclusion myself days later is irrelevant. As soon as an addiction is reported to the casino once, an exclusion must be issued.
I am therefore demanding the return of all losses incurred since April 18th - I will pursue this with legal counsel if necessary, but I would like to give you the chance to offer me a solution.
For this purpose, I ask you to list the losses since April 18th (deposits minus withdrawals) and show them here.
Hallo Kingmaker-Casino,
das Datum des Selbstausschlusses war der 18.4 - euch wurde dies per Livechat und anschließend per Mail mitgeteilt.
Ihr habt das Konto nicht geschlossen, sondern mich weiter zum spielen animiert, in dem ich einen VIP Manager bekommen habe, der mir quasi täglich angebote zur einzahlung gemacht hat. Das ist nicht nur mit Blick auf eure AGBs nicht rechtens. Dass ich den ausschluss selbst tage später revidiert habe, spielt hierfür keine rolle. Sobald eine sucht dem casino einmalig mitgeteilt wird, muss ein Ausschluss erfolgen.
Ich fordere daher alle Verluste seit dem 18.4 zurück - werde dies notfalls auch anwaltlich vorantreiben, möchte euch aber die Chance geben mir eine Lösung anzubieten.
Hierfür bitte ich euch die Verluste seitdem 18.4 (Einzahlungen minus die Auszahlungen) aufzulisten und hier aufzuzeigen.
I’m following up after a week to check if there have been any updates regarding the case. Could you please share the outcome of your review or let me know if any further information is needed from the player's side?
