Case summary

The player from Italy had submitted multiple self-exclusion requests before making deposits on September 4th, but the casino did not close the account and even offered bonuses to encourage further play. After several communications, the player expressed concerns about the casino's handling of his self-exclusion and the delay in processing his refund. The complaint was escalated, and the casino eventually acknowledged the issue, initiating the refund process. The player confirmed receipt of the refund, and the complaint was marked as resolved by the Complaints Team.

Good morning

After multiple self-exclusion requests prior to my deposits on September 4th, sent via email specifying my gambling problem, they never closed the account.

They even offered me bonuses to encourage me to play again

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

  • Could you please share your self-exclusion requests with me? Please share the information to my email at [email protected].

In the meantime, check other resources and information in our responsible gambling guide found here: https://casino.guru/responsible-gambling-guide

Last deposit September 10th. The account is still open. I withdrew 200 euros that were left and are still being processed.

I had also already closed an account due to self-exclusion on Malina Casino, which appears to be linked to Kingmaker. They never asked me for documents, they verified me independently. In the last emails sent to Kingmaker yesterday, I received a reply writing to Kingmaker, who took charge of his case, but at the bottom of the email it says "generated by Malina Casino." I will forward it to you later using the email address you provided. Now I am wondering how it is possible to accept a player who has already been excluded from Malina Casino and have him play on Kingmaker. They have the same headquarters in Curacao, they are the same operators, the email confirms it.

Furthermore, after several self-exclusion requests, he made me play anyway without protecting me.

Shame, in the previous emails I attached everything you need

You want my money back at least the ones paid from September 4th onwards

I feel cheated, they took advantage of my weakness in the game even though I have been the problem several times.

I trust in your professionalism to achieve my goal

Thank you

I would like to point out that I had already played on Kingmaker in the past. The account had been open for about a couple of months, but once I realised my problem with gambling I communicated to Kingmaker to close the account due to self-exclusion, but they continued to fool me without closing the account. My first request for self-exclusion had been made on 24 August.

Hello Utente74,

We would like to update you that due to Katarina, your designated resolver, being on vacation, we have opted to extend the timeline by an additional 7 days. Since Katarina 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 Katarina will contact you at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Best regards, Casino Guru

Dear Utente74,

thank you for your messages and patience.

I have thoroughly read through the emails you so kindly provided.

I’d like to explain to you what the difference is between closing the account and self-exclusion:

Closing an account is simple and has almost no impact - the player can reopen the account anytime, and the casino has no obligation to the player. 

On the other hand, self-exclusion does. If a player successfully makes a self-exclusion the casino agrees not to open this account or if yes only under particular circumstances (after the cooling off period and this cannot be done for players who are addicted/with gambling problems).

  • Please specify the reason for closing your account. Have you previously provided a reason for this account closure?
  • Are you experiencing stress related to gambling, and do you find yourself preoccupied with it?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Katarina

I would also like to ask — is your account still open?

Thank you.


Dear Kingmaker Casino,

Thank you for your response.

However, I would like to ask you to self-exclude the player's account as soon as possible, or at least disable the deposit and/or betting functions.

If I’m not mistaken, the player informed you for the first time about his gambling problem in late August, but to this day, you have failed to take any action.

After many requests, the account was closed on September 11th.

but there is no trace of my money to be refunded

I was treated badly

Such behavior should be reported to the supervisory authorities

In my email of August 24th it was very clearly specified to close the account for gambling reasons

they kept wasting my time and making me spend a lot of money because of my problem
