Case summary

The player from the Netherlands filed a formal complaint against Opabet.com for failing to adhere to Responsible Gambling protocols after he expressed fears of relapse and requested immediate account closure. Despite his repeated pleas to close his account, the casino did not take action, which led to a financial loss of €860 from subsequent deposits. The complaint was resolved after the casino agreed to issue a full refund and confirmed this to the player. The player acknowledged the resolution and marked the complaint as resolved, which was then confirmed by the Complaints Team.

Dear Sir/Madam,


I am lodging this formal complaint against Opabet.com / Opabet.com for a severe breach of Responsible Gambling protocols.


On March 14, 2026, I contacted the casino's live chat regarding a missing deposit.

During this conversation, I explicitly stated that I was afraid of a relapse into gambling addiction and needed help and wished the pending deposit (the moment when it arrives) be sent back to my bank and my account fully been closed as being afraid to get a fall back on my old gambling behavior (see attached screenshot)


Instead of immediately self exclusion —as is the industry standard when addiction is mentioned—the representative ignored my plea and told me to wait until the deposit was credited to my balance.

Because my account was not closed as requested, I suffered a relapse. The moment the money came in (after 2 days) the money was lost.


On March 16, 2026, I deposited an additional €700. I again contacted support (deposit was pending), reiterating that I am a problem gambler and that my account MUST be closed immediately. Once again, the agent failed to take direct action and merely instructed me to "send an email."

The casino’s failure to act on my clear admission of gambling addiction has resulted in a direct financial loss that should have been prevented by their duty of care.


Timeline of Events:

March 14: Admission of addiction/fear of relapse via live chat. Request ignored. (Amount: €160)


March 16: Second request for immediate closure due to addiction. Agent refused to close it on the spot. (Amount: €700)


Desired Outcome: I am seeking a full refund of the deposits made after my first admission of gambling problems (Total: €860) and the permanent closure of my account across all brands operating under this license.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with Opabet 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?
  • Have you contacted the casino separately with the intention of seeking player protection at any point?
  • When was the last time the casino allowed you to deposit?
  • 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 self-exclusion via email at support@opabet.io, 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 Opabet 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

The casino representive can post her a confirmation the moment it has been refunded so we can mark this as closed in good faith. I'm happy that the casino is operating.
