MyStake Casino - Player’s self-exclusion is not being honored.

Closed
Our verdict

Unjustified complaint

Amount: £4,000

MyStake Casino
Safety Index 9.7 Very high

Case summary

The player from the United Kingdom sought assistance regarding her self-exclusion from MyStake, as she had been able to create multiple additional accounts on different MyStake domains using the same personal information. Despite her self-exclusion confirmation, she had continued to deposit without undergoing KYC verification. The complaint was rejected due to the elapsed time of more than six months since the incident, which made effective investigation and evidence collection impossible. The player was informed about the rejection and was advised about the BetBlocker self-exclusion initiative as an additional support tool.

I am requesting assistance regarding my self-exclusion from MyStake. After my exclusion was confirmed, I was still able to create additional accounts on several MyStake domains, including mystake.bet, mystake1.com, and mystake4.com. These accounts were opened using the same personal information (name, address, phone number and payment details), with only a different email address.


Because I had already self-excluded, I believed I would not be able to register or deposit again on any related MyStake site. However, I was able to continue depositing across multiple domains without any KYC verification.

Hello Lawallace,

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

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Best regards, Casino Guru

I apologize, Lawallace, but we are unable to assist you with your request. Due to the amount of time that has passed since the incident you described—more than six months ago—we are no longer able to investigate the matter effectively. Our policy does not allow us to pursue cases that are considered "cold cases," as collecting evidence and reconstructing an accurate timeline becomes too difficult after such a period. 

Due to the aforementioned reasons, we will now proceed to reject this complaint. Thank you for your understanding. I am genuinely sorry that we were not able to assist you more effectively in this particular situation, as we always aim to help players resolve their issues whenever possible.

Please remember that you are welcome to contact us again if you run into any problems with this or any other casino in the future. Whether it is a question, a concern or a new issue that needs to be looked into, our team is here and ready to support you.

Best regards

Veronika


As part of our Global Self-Exclusion Initiative, we've partnered with BetBlocker, a UK-registered charity providing a free service to support people worldwide. You can find more information about our initiative here (https://casino.guru/global-self-exclusion-initiative) and about BetBlocker here (https://betblocker.org/).

BetBlocker, which supports seven languages, is quick and easy to install on multiple devices, taking just 2 minutes. Once installed, it blocks access to over 84,230 gambling websites and runs quietly in the background. The service can be used anonymously and helps individuals manage their access to gambling safely and appropriately, whether that means complete restriction or limiting access during vulnerable periods. 

Additionally, BetBlocker includes a list of 824 gambling information sites. These sites primarily inform users about and advertise gambling services. You can choose to include these sites in your restriction by ticking a box. However, if you have an ongoing complaint against a gambling operator, do not check this box, as it will prevent you from accessing the Casino.Guru website as well.
