Ladies and Gentlemen
On April 19, 2025, I relapsed into my gambling addiction. From that point on, I deposited approximately €8,000 over several months with the provider Playio, primarily placing sports bets. In the end, I lost everything. I requested a refund from their support team, as they were aware of my gambling addiction and I later learned that Playio is an illegal provider. My request was denied. Can you help me with this?

Dear aarongrimm8671xxx,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m very sorry to hear about your negative experience. I checked the Responsible Gambling policy and I found this:
Self-exclusion request: You can contact the Support Service Team via e-mail at support@playio.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.
Have you clearly informed the casino about your gambling problem? Could you forward me the account closure requests that you sent to the casino? My email address is petra.h@casino.guru.
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards,
Petra
