Unresolved
Our verdict

No reaction

Black points: 280

Amount: €380

LuckyWave Casino
Safety Index:Very low

Case summary

The player from Germany had requested self-exclusion from the casino on March 9 due to gambling addiction, but was still able to deposit €380 afterward. She sought a refund for this amount and requested immediate self-exclusion. We had advised her to submit a self-exclusion request and attempted to facilitate communication with the casino. However, the casino failed to respond or process her self-exclusion despite multiple requests, and continued to allow deposits and send bonus offers. Due to the casino's lack of cooperation, we were unable to resolve the complaint and closed it as unresolved.

Good day,


On March 9th at approximately 8:30 PM, I requested self-exclusion from the aforementioned online casino via email for the first time – for my own protection due to my gambling addiction. I stated the reason.


I was able to deposit a further €380, which I would like to have refunded, as the self-protection measures were not observed.


I request immediate self-exclusion and a refund.


I would be very grateful for your help. Thank you so much!

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with LuckyWave 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? Make sure the information about the sender, the recipient, and the time is included. My email is tomas@casino.guru
  • 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 request a new self-exclusion via email at support@luckywave.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 LuckyWave 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

Thanks for the explanation.

  • Could you please confirm you sent a new self-exclusion request as recommended earlier? With what result?
  • After you learned the casino didn't process your self-exclusion, have you contacted them via email or live chat and asked for assistance?

Looking forward to your reply.

Good day,


I submitted my self-exclusion request again on March 17th. You are copied on this email. My player account remains open and I continue to receive bonus offers via email.


I haven't made another attempt yet.

Unfortunately, I have to report that I have gambled away another €25 after requesting self-exclusion due to gambling addiction via chat.


I couldn't get help via chat. I was told to contact support by email. I explained that I had already done so several times. They then told me I would have to be patient and that helping me wasn't within their area of ​​responsibility. That's a shame.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Jason12,

I have repeatedly tried to contact LuckyWave Casino but have had no success. Unfortunately, without cooperation from their side, there is little that can be achieved. Since the casino operates without a valid license and does not refer to any ADR service, there is no gaming authority to turn to.


I will now close the complaint as unresolved.

I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the casino's rating caused by unresolved complaints could help change their approach. If the casino decides to respond, we will reopen the complaint and you will be notified by email.

I recommend choosing casinos based on their reviews and ratings in the future to avoid situations like this.


I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.


Best Regards,

Igor
