MrPunter Casino - Player's account closure request is ignored.

Resolved
Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: £278

MrPunter Casino
Safety Index:High

Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom had requested account closure on May 22 due to a gambling problem, but the casino claimed they could not find his email. Despite his follow-up request on May 27, the issue remained unresolved, and he subsequently managed to continue gambling. At first, it seemed he has lost around £1200, the actual amount was only £278 - which was most likely lost on the day of the request. The Complaints Team facilitated communication between the player and the casino, which led to a refund of £278 as a gesture of goodwill.

Hi, I made a request to Mr punter to have my account closed down on 22nd May as I told them I have a severe gambling problem. They replied saying the email cannot be found on the system! It is the email I have used the whole time I have had the account. I then asked again on 27th May and received the same reply. I have unfortunately gambled with them again and lost in the region of £1200 despite me asking twice to have my account shut down with immediate effect.

Hello bstevens,


I am sorry to hear about your troubles. I am Martin and I will be taking care of your complaint from now on. As the first order of business, I would like to ask you a couple of questions:

  1. Have you made any deposits since the account closure request on 22nd of May?
  2. Are you sure there is no outstanding balance on the account anymore?
  3. Since you specifically asked for self-exclusion, what is the issue with the fact that you can not log in to your account? Is your complaint about the prolongation of the process?


Dear casino representative,


could you please check the case and explain your view of the issue? Why wasn't the player's account suspended immediately? Has the player registered with a different e-mail address? Also, have there been any deposits from the player dated 22nd May or later?

Hi


yes I have made multiple deposits since the 22nd May.

yes I’m sure there is no outstanding balance on the account.

there is no issue not being able to log in, I just wanted the account closed down from when I requested on the 22nd May but they did not close it and I have lost a lot of money since even after telling them I have a gambling problem and want my account closed. Is there any way of getting my money back?

many thanks

Dear casino representative,


thank you for your involvement in the mediation process.


Dear bstevens,


we fully acknowledge the delay between the request and actual closure of your account. However, according to the information we have at our disposal, you have not lost any funds after your requests, to the contrary, your account balance was slightly positive during this time. Are you sure you have lost the mentioned 1200 GBP?

Dear bstevens,


Sadly, I believe this information is confidential and I can not share it without permission from the casino, as it involves images of its internal system. I will however ask for the casino representative's permission.


You can also send me your bank/account statement at martin.l@casino.guru. We will then be able to see the exact amounts you have received and deposited - there is a chance that some withdrawals have not been added to your bank account yet and are still being processed.

Dear Casino representative,


we are currently awaiting your response to the mail I sent you.


I would also like to say, that I have now had the opportunity to review the player’s bank statement alongside the documentation you submitted. However, I must note that there appear to be some discrepancies between the player’s financial records and the evidence provided by your team, I therefore believe some more information could help us clear up the misunderstandings.


I would like to ask you to share a complete breakdown of the player’s account activity from 22nd May onwards. Is it possible to see all deposits, withdrawals, and relevant balance movements, in detail, one by one - not just the whole amount per day?


In addition, it would be helpful to receive clarification on how the proposed refund amount of £278 was determined.


Dear bstevens,


I understand I have asked you this before, but can you please confirm again whether you have used any bonuses or have deposited/withdrawn the funds to any other payment methods?

Hello Martin,


We have replied to your email. Additionally, attached all the required evidence.



Dear bstevens,


As previously stated, we are not obligated to issue a refund in this case, as you notified us of their gambling addiction on May 22, 2025. If we calculate the timeframe after 24 hours, it would extend from May 23 to June 4, given that the account was closed on June 4, 2025.


In order to resolve the case favorably, we have made the decision to refund the difference for the period from May 22, 2025 to June 4, 2025 as gesture of goodwill.


Deposits made between May 22, 2025, and the June 4, 2025, amount to 3,100.00 GBP, while withdrawals total 2,822.00 GBP, resulting in a difference of 278 GBP.


We have provided the evidence to Martin that substantiates the aforementioned statement. Furthermore, we have attached the account history from May 19, to June 4, 2025.


Once you confirm we can proceed with the manual withdrawal of 278 GBP as gesture of goodwill.


We are waiting for your update.


Kind regards,

Mr.Punter team.
