Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing. I have read the casino's Responsible Gaming policy and this is what I have found:

Self-exclusion request: You can contact the Support Service Team via e-mail at support@pistolo.com, and we will close your account as soon as practicable. It is the player's responsibility to notify our Website of any other accounts they may hold and to commit not to open any additional accounts. While our Website will make reasonable efforts to prevent the creation of new accounts, it remains the player's sole responsibility to ensure that no further accounts are opened. Our Website cannot be held responsible for any potential losses incurred on other accounts.

What email address did you use to register at this casino? Have you used the same email address to contact the casino with the request to close your account due to gambling addiction?

Have you passed the full KYC verification, or at least submitted any identity documents to the casino for verification?

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,

Attila

Dear Player, could you please address my previous message?

I look forward to your reply.

Hello Attila

I have emailed you the requested info. Rather than reopen this case I opened a new complaint i think it may be more straight forward. Should I just leave this one open? I can cancel the new complaint let me know what you think is best.

Thanks so much!

Hello Attila

I have emailed you the requested info. We can leave this complaint open but im seeking reimbursement for $10,280. The casino emailed me saying they are looking into the matter. I forwarded you that email also. Thanks so much!

Hello Attila

I received an email this morning saying they are sorry for the technical error on their side but no refund will be issued.

Thank you for your message. I can confirm that I have received your email, including the communication indicating that the casino was considering issuing a refund.

Could you please let me know if there have been any further updates regarding this matter since then?

In the meantime, to help us assess the case properly, could you please forward proof of all deposits made after your account was reopened? This may include transaction receipts, bank statements, e-wallet records, or screenshots from your casino transaction history showing the deposits in question.

I look forward to your reply.

Best regards,

Attila

Hello Attila

The casino replied apologizing for the technical error which allowed my account to be reopened but said no refund will be issued.

I will forward you screenshots of all my deposits since the account was reopened.

Thank you

Hello Charliejoe1234,

I am sorry to hear about your troubles. I am Martin and I will be taking care of your complaint from now on. In case the account is still opened, I would like to ask you to send one more email, precisely mentioning self exclusion and gambling issues to the casino again. I would also like to invite the Pistolo Casino representative to enter the discussion.

Dear casino representative,

could you please check the case and explain the matter to us? Why was the account reopened? As the player has issues with gambling, please block their account as soon as possible - if it hasn't been closed already. Afterwards, would you be able to provide us with their deposit history?

Thank you in advance for closing the account and providing us with your view of the issue. In case there is any additional evidence/information you would like to present us, please send it to martin.l@casino.guru

Dear casino representative,

thank you for providing us the update on the current proceedings. We will be awaiting your response.

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 all,

We would like to kindly inform you that we will need some more time to check the matter with our relevant team. We will have updates for you as soon as possible.

Thank you for your patience. 

Best regards,

Dear Casino representative,

Thank you for your update. We understand that internal reviews may take some time; however, this matter has already been pending for a while, and the key question remains simple.

Could you please confirm whether the casino is willing to refund the player 10,435 CAD, representing the deposits lost after the account was reopened?

We will extend the timer once more and await your final position.

Dear Casino Guru,

The player rejected our offer; escalating the case to the relevant department for further review.

Kind regards,

Pistolo Team

Dear Pistolo Casino

Yes, I rejected your offer of $6000 I lost a substantial amount of money after I expressed i have a very serious gambling addiction after the self exclusion failed for my own protection. This has been going back and forth for almost 2 months now. I replied to your offer that I would accept $9435 if this could be dealt with by today July 10th as im under severe financial stress. I just feel this is being dragged out for an unfair amount of time. Also i would like to add that the offer was rejected before casino guru extended this for another 7 days asking for a final decision?

Dear casino representative,

Thank you for the update.

We continue to believe the full C$10,435 lost after the account was reopened should be reimbursed.

We will extend the timer one more time while the matter is reviewed by the relevant department. Please provide us with the casino’s final position within the set time frame so we can proceed accordingly.

Dear Charliejoe1234,

Thank you for your patience and for clarifying the situation.

Dear Casino Guru,

We are currently awaiting confirmation from the relevant department and will follow up with you as soon as we receive an update.

Thank you for your patience.

Kind Regards,

Pistolo Team
