Our verdict

Player stopped responding

PlayiO Casino
Safety Index 8.0 High

Case summary

The player from Germany had requested self-exclusion due to gambling addiction, but the casino did not close his account, which led to a loss. After multiple requests for both closure and a refund, his account was finally closed; however, he had not received any response regarding his refund request. The Complaints Team facilitated communication between the player and the casino, ultimately resulting in a partial refund offer that the player accepted. The casino confirmed that the transaction had been processed, and the funds were expected to appear in the player's account within 3-5 working days. However, since the player failed to confirm this information, the complaint has been rejected.

Dear felixkammerer,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m very sorry to hear about your negative experience. I checked the Responsible Gambling section and I found this:

Self-exclusion request: you can contact Support Service Team via e-mail: support@playio.com, and we will close your account within next 24 hours. It's the player's responsibility to notify our Website of any other accounts the player might have and promise not to open any other accounts. Our Website will make reasonable efforts to try to prevent the opening of new accounts but it's the player's sole responsibility to make sure no other accounts are created. Our Website cannot be held accountable for potential losses on other accounts;

Could you please clarify when exactly your account was closed? When did you make the last deposit?

Additionally, if there is any other relevant communication between you and the casino, please forward it to me. My email address is kristina.s@casino.guru.

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Kristina

Dear felixkammerer,

It’s a pleasure to e-meet you. My name is Kubo, and I’ll be handling your complaint moving forward.

If there have been any updates or new developments since your last message, please don’t hesitate to share them with me.

In accordance with our standard procedure, I’d like to invite a representative from PlayiO Casino to join this conversation. Their participation will help ensure a smoother and more efficient resolution of your case.


Dear PlayiO Casino,

I kindly request a detailed explanation regarding the handling of this case, specifically addressing why the player’s account remained active for an additional three months despite the submission of a self-exclusion request and a clear declaration of a gambling problem - an issue that your support team has evidently acknowledged.

Your thorough and transparent response is crucial to ensuring a fair and responsible resolution of this matter.


Thank you in advance for your cooperation and prompt attention to this request.


Best regards,

Kubo

Thank you for your response and for the offer of a partial refund of 400 EUR as a goodwill gesture.


Unfortunately, I must decline this offer, as the amount in question is 1,500 EUR. The proposed refund falls significantly short of the full amount I am seeking to recover. I am still open to a fair resolution, but a higher offer would be necessary to move forward.


I hope we can find a mutually acceptable solution soon.

Dear felixkammerer,


After checking your communication with the casino, we received your closure request on 12.03.2025.


The refund offer represents your losses starting 24 hours after we received the request and the time the account was finally closed.


Therefore, our refund offer still stands at 400 eur.


Best regards,

PlayiO Casino Team

Please reconsider. More than €400 was deposited 24 hours after requesting the block. Please send me the transaction logs and I will compare them with my account statements.

It is okay for me that losses are only taken into account after 24 hours have passed since receipt (March 24th).

I have already sent you my contact details.

Dear PlayiO Casino,

Further to the recent communication regarding the offer, I would also like to request the full transaction history for the player (since March 12). This will help us understand the origin of the €400 amount that has been proposed on your end.

Please send the relevant documentation or evidence to my email address at jakub.m@casino.guru.


Thank you for your cooperation and assistance.
